Speedway Champions League ?


Recommended Posts

Does anyone know the race format for this meeting? It has been stated it is a four team tournament with teams of five riders, one of which is a reserve. It would seem to lend itself to the SWC format.......can anyone confirm please?

Can`t help you yet with an answer-however this is a google translation of a sportowefakty article today

 

 

 

 

SPAR Falubaz hopes that organized this year's Champions League will attract the stands around 10,000 spectators. Everything indicates that the transmission of these professions will carry NC + platform.

 

Slag Champions League in Zielona Gora will be held on August 31. Known more and more details about the event. It is already known on what basis will be determined membership club players to individual teams. - It was the most discussed issue by fans. The theme will be solved in a very simple way. The player will have priority driving the club, which is the longest under contract. The probability that the agreement was signed on the same day in two teams, who are masters of the country, is small, and even close to zero. If Darcy Ward will not be appointed to the example by Poole, then it will have the right to go in Piraternie. Matt Ford, however, announced that the Australian will drive for his team - said in an interview with the portal SportoweFakty.pl Marek Jankowski.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If World Speedway League proves to be a success this year is seriously taken into consideration as an option to the rate for the year the tournament was expanded to more countries masters. Interested in the project are both the Czechs and the Germans. - These games are in my opinion more level than the level of the individual leagues. This is best exemplified by Esbjerg. In this league are pretty complex rules, because we have players from membership A, B, C. Completing the team is not easy. In the case of the Champions League will be able to experience all contracted speedway. The star of this team should be Niels Kristian Iversen, whose support to Artiom Laguta and Mikkel Bech. Potential Danish slag in the project should be noticeable. The English have a nice composition, because apart from Ward to Maciek Janowski and Przemek Pawlicki. Piraterny do not need to advertise at all, because they have such stars as Hancock and Holder. Teams come in really very good compositions - said Jankowski.

 

So far the response of the fans on the Champions League is very positive. Polish champions believe in the success of the project and hope that the contest will attract about 10,000 spectators. - These positive signals flow among other things, the UK and Denmark. Tickets by supporters of these countries have been ordered already large before, when no one knew how this party will carefully look. Orders were quite a few and some hotels in Zielona Gora are already fully booked by fans from other countries. The best example is the British who are already in March, booked a whole hotel in our city. I wish the stands were about 10,000 spectators. That is our goal - said Jankowski.

 

Supporters of the grandstand of the stadium to attract Zielona also attractive ticket prices. - In fact, only now we move to the promotion of the event. It seems that everything should be good to sort out. Tickets are affordable. Taught by experience different professions in Poland or in Zielona Gora decided that the ticket costs 50 zł. This price valid for the entire stadium. Fans who have gold cards or other privileges, they will be able to buy a ticket at a price 30 zł. Discount tickets are slightly cheaper. There are also VIP tickets, which are the most popular for this type of event. They cost 200 zł. This is not the price that deters. I think it will be our big advantage with the turnout. Financial assumptions are also not without significance, of course, because we want everything made ​​sense also in this respect - said Jankowski.

 

Already well known that speedway fans will be able to watch the broadcast of the competition in one of the TV stations. As previously reported, have expressed their interest in the tournament Polsat, Eurosport and NC +. - The transmission will be a hundred percent. We have already chosen a specific offer. We make a deal, but we want to move information from the sender began - ended Jankowski.

 

According to our information, the Polish champions accepted the offer platforms NC + and she will slag Champions League. For more details on this topic should appear soon.

 

Edit if NC have got the TV rights and no UK broadcaster is showing-at least we know streams will be available.

I thought Holder should be riding for Piraterna. He was part of their side for 2013 and 2014 and only rode for Poole as cover when Darcy was injured

The Swedish league is being shafted to make the Elite league look like its remotely competitive.The fact that "Middlo" is dillusionly talking it up in the Star as a 'trophy' that he would like to add to his collection says it all.Back In the real world Poole's current top 4 would have no chance against the Polish and Swedish teams !

Pointless competition.

Yeah, those pesky Poles again eh? Dammed un-British all these foreigners trying to PROMOTE the sport (remember "promotion? No? Don't worry, nor can anyone else in British speedway)

 

Anyway as I'll be going to this as part of a round trip the day after the Gorzów SGP I have to say I'm really looking forward to it and seeing another exciting afternoon of racing.

 

Enjoy your humbugs.

Poole's line-up will reflect what a joke British Speedway has become. ha ha, "Young up and coming talent" Benji Compton in an official FIM "Champions League" event. What a laughing stock.

 

Should be well worth watching Matt Ford and Neil Middleditch being put in their place for once.

 

Seriously though, how cast iron is Poole's contract for this event? I can see them withdrawing if there are no serious consequences from them doing so. The BSPA may even be persuaded to fund any compensation.

I wonder why the about turn? At the start of the month we were told it had been agreed Holder would ride for Poole as they were his "mother" club.
