World Cup Final


Recommended Posts

Its on now hardly anyone there pity

 

Are you seeing pictures from Prague LIVE already?. Here in UK we've got Eurosport showing a re-run of the sparsely attended race off meeting.

 

I would have thought the Polish fans alone would have greatly outnumbered the race off attendance today. Such a predictable shame that nobody would turn up for the race off but the final too? :(

Hi Pawel,

Cooled down a little up there today? Hope so. For your sake i hope the Poles triumph, but may the best team win. Should be very close between Poland and Denmark with the Aussies as spoilers. Not surprised the attendance is low. "You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can't fool Czech supporters that their team is anything but cannon-fodder. Fingers crossed for a safe and close meeting. Alan.

Ummm what Czech supporters? There was a great Czech league meeting at the start of the season including top riders and the stands were pretty much empty all the way around the track. Shocking decision to have the race off and final in Prague. More so that the Czech team would be seeded through. I remember reading a few years ago that the SGP in Prague was looked upon as a annual circus coming to town, but one which few locals attended!

 

I've got a lot of company around this evening so will leave you too hold the fort on here, do hope we get some good racing which would be unusual for Prague, there were promising bits and pieces in the race off.

 

(Just caught the end off the race off again while waiting for the final to begin on Eurosport. Nigel Pearson was saying that it was indeed a disappointment for GB to finish behind Latvia, somehow i think in a few years time Latvia will view finishing behind GB as a disappointment! lol. OMG many a true word spoke in jest eeeek!.)

Shows Czech fans are not daft.

Watch it on TV in comfort.

This seed to the final lark only works if the team seeded is competetive.

Feel sorry for the Czechs as they have a proud history of great riders. I was a big fan of Ales Dryml senior, the Verners and the legendary Zdenek Kdruna.

TBF you'd struggle to find a bookie giving odds on second. So far the 3 winners have been Poland, Denmark and Australia. Pretty obvious don't you think? Ok we had a couple of days if believing we could best the Aussies but we still knew they were favourites.

 

Denmark will win again tonight.

 

I wouldn't bet against the Poles tonight.

 

Did dopey Pearson just talk about "Yuri" Stancl?

Even the locals realise the czechs have no hope, poor crowd on a poor track, BSI have dropped a right royal bollock seeding crap team like Czech to the final, you'd expect a final to consist of 4 teams who can medal, we already know who the top 3 will be and most probably the top 2. :shock:

Worst World Cup I have ever watched tracks awful and this seeded crack is a joke it would have been a better final with USA

Latvia would have livened things up :)

Czechs looking as if they will even do worse than Germany in SWC.

There is no way thay can have a 4th seed next year.

Sad for them but they should never have been here tonight.

Having them has hardly set the locals alight.

 

Must say that Eurosport imbicile grates on me :rofl:
