Although not televised, for me the most interesting meeting in this round is Tarnow versus Gorzow. Gorzow got their season on track when they hammered Unia Leszno last Sunday, but troubled times for win-less Tarnow, who have now banned Krzysztof Kasprzak from riding in the UK.

Elsewhere, early team news for the Torun versus Leszno clash suggests a curious opening pairing for champions Leszno:

While Zielona Gora's dispute with the local authority seems to have resulted in the mayor being the subject of an abusive message daubed on a municipal building by one of the Falubaz faithful:

The mayor, Janusz Kubicki, describes it as an act of cowardice and suggests the individual responsible gives him the message in person, which, given the known reputation of some Zielona Gora fans might not be the most sensible idea ever to pop into his head.

Amid fears that the newly renovated "Sector K" stand on the first turn in Zielona Gora will collapse due to the vibrations of those wacky Falubaz fans standing in it, including, apparently, the son of Falubaz's president Robert Dowhan, doing the "Labado", the club has decided to close the stand for Sunday's fixture against Czestochowa:

Seldom a dull moment in the Falubaz-besotted town of Zielona Gora.

Meanwhile, moving ahead a week, the "House Full" signs are already going up in Gorzow for the eagerly awaited derby clash between Stal and Falubaz on 8 May 2011. Tickets for the home support were snapped up within two days of going on sale and tickets for Falubaz fans are released for sale on Monday and are likely to sell out even quicker:

I'm guessing Stal versus Falubaz will be televised. Should be an amazing atmosphere.

Good news and bad news for Unia Tarnow ahead of today's meeting. The "good news" is that, due to his poor start to the season and new "rider replacement" lists being in force now, there'll be no rider replacement facility for Hans Andersen, so Gorzow will probably go with Artur Mroczka. The "bad news" is that Gorzow provided the top two riders in yesterday's European GP. Can't see Tarnow getting their maiden win of the season, to be honest.

No idea, but Liga II seems to be just a straight league with no play-offs so perhaps with less fixtures to fit in they've taken a week off?

Meanwhile, in the ever entertaining world of Grünberg in Schlesien, the Falubaz-besotted populous aren't happy at the embarrassment of having their newly renovated stand closed for today's fixture against Czestochowa. A protest has been staged in the city and further protests are expected at the stadium:

Cloudy looks like it may rain at any moment Alan.

If the winds are from the south, it is guaranteed. Been an absolutely miserable spring here.

Looks nice there. I hope there is a little more dirt down than yesterday. I thought it was fairly good, and lots of incidents, but would have been a tad better with more dirt down. Lets look forward to some good racing today. Regards. Alan,

Totally random and uninteresting fact: The Olympic Stadium in Wroclaw has hosted home football matches for two nations, Poland and Germany. It was also once officially called "The Herman Goring Stadium", back in the days when Wroclaw was Breslau.

No, that is interesting. Appreciated.
