He was brilliant today! Maybe Czestochowa riders are not the toughest rivals but Emil's actions were fabulous - the track was rubbish, really not much passing and Emil was actually the only guy who was passing today - doing it in a great style. The only rider it was worth visiting the stadium for today. You would never guess he's just come back after a 10 week long break injury if you didn't know!

It's a long way up to top eight, he'll have to fight like hell to get there.

I'm sure he'll give it a good go, but there is surely no question that he will receive a pick for next year if he doesn't make the top 8.

 

Rather embarrassing for Britain's Tai Woffinden that Emil is still just 1 point behind him despite having missed 3 and a half of the 6 rounds so far!

He probably will. Maybe the officials wanted a new young sensation in Tai Woffinden, but I think he'll need a year or two to settle in GP. He has got talent, that's for sure.

I feel Sayfudinof is a sometimes dirty kamikaze rider, but he'll offer new exitement into the mix.

I'm planning to watch this meeting on sky. However, according the listings it is on sky 1 for an hour from 6pm but then the cricket starts.

Does anyone know if the rest of this meeting will be shown live and if so on which channel?

Press the red button !!!!!!!!!!!1111

Same here Pepper, its starting to get my goat with Sky

and their flamming red button.

We looked into getting Sky through erm.... Sky, but they

came out around £20 a month more expensive than Virgin for

the same setup, plus they can't supply us with broadband

for the internet, as according to their stupid postcode

search, we don't have the facility for it.... errr..

Virgin have supplied us with 54.0 Mps for the last year,

so why can Sky supply even a 20.0 Mps service?

 

Add in the ESPN HD service, plus a load of other HD channels

that Virgin supply free and we have a pretty good deal, yet Sky want

to charge extra for the same services... which makes our current

package even more expensive through Sky themselves.

 

If I miss the GP because its taken to the Red Button, then I will

seriously consider cancelling my subscription. Yes it hurts Virgin,

but it also hurts Sky, as they don't get a percentage of my money

via the Virgin contract.

 

Can't wait for the day that someone like ESPN takes an interest in

showing speedway, see what happens to your poxy red button then Sky... :mad:

OK, now we've heard from the Seven Foolish Virgin subscribers, let's get ready to welcome back the travelling GP Circus for the second half of the season. Great to see Emil back on track and here's hoping that Jason's arm op has been successful.

Looking forward to the Thrilla in Malilla and hoping that Jason, Chris Holder & Kenneth can make a decent inroad into the Polish Pair's points score. What's the odds on anyone going down to the Woods today for a (Teddy) Bjerre's Picnic?

Completely different systems, virgin use fibre optic broadband through special cables that your tv comes down too, sky use BT phonelines.

 

I pay a little more but have the best of both worlds, use Virgin for broadband and telephone line and SKY for TV.

I see your point, but its a case of what we can afford unfortunately.

That little extra isn't something we can pay out right now.

 

And for the Aussie know all.... we're not all made of money, as above, its

what people can afford and as we pay for Sky sports, Sky don't do themselves

any favours by excluding paying customers from a sport that is the only reason

for having Sky Sports in this house.

 

So, its the repeat for us then, as checked the listings and I can't believe that

speedway is playing second fiddle to WWE and some fill in programme and some other

guff that I cant remember, which is on instead.

 

Now off to see what other offers are out there for our Broadband, maybe we'll

get something sorted for next time.

Cheers to the sensible posters for your help and useful advice.

No worries Tomcat, not my fault if you're a know-nothing, although I fail to see how you managed to work in that pathetic piece of schoolboy abuse from what I wrote; now how about talking about the GP?

Yes. Looking forward to this one, holding my fingers crossed for Holta victory. 4 riders have this as home circuit riding in Sweden, Sayfudinov is back, hopefully Nicki (he's a hot-head, and can provide some great entertainment off track aswell :lol: ), and Holta is having the season of his lifetime, in Dackarna especially. Here's to good racing and great fun.
