mikec Posted October 4, 2014 Report Share Posted October 4, 2014 Is there any info out on any pre-GP entertainment yet? They've had a stage with bands on in the past. Heading down to Torun from Gdansk on Saturday, wondering if it's worth getting to the stadium early or better off staying in the old town square?

shoestringtours Posted October 4, 2014 Report Share Posted October 4, 2014 There was some entertainment outside the stadium 3rd / 4th bend last year. Think our party will probably stay in the square until Late afternoon then get the tram to the stadium... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OveFundinFan Posted October 7, 2014 Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 Really looking forward to the GP on Saturday in Torun. Yes their still is a chance for KK to overall Greg so a lot of interest there. BUT I think the fight for top 8 places will prove very interesting. There are 4 riders racing on Saturday going for place 7 and 8 so racing there should be some serious racing.. And of course a battle of pride lower down between Chris Harris (regular gp rider) only 2 points ahead of part-time gp rider MJJ - just 2 point between them. Should all be good stuff come Saturday.

What a daft starting time... would be great if they start at 13:00 or something to give the fans some time to head (back) to Torun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite agree DG! Just checked the Lodz website and the Czestochowa match is listed for the following week (19th October)! Lodz vs Czestochowa:- The Sportowefakty website now has the meeting at an unknown time on the 12th. The Lodz website has it at an unknown time on the 19th.

Life is never made easy for the travelling Speedway fan! Lodz are def at home to Czestochowa on Sunday-confirmation here http://speedwayekstraliga.pl/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/Komunikat-Enea-Ekstraligi-nr-60_2014.pdf However no start time quoted Edit think this whole play-off fixture in doubt Google translation of Sportowefakty article Eagle boat is not going to give awizowanego composition on the first play-off matches, because he believes that this meeting should take place on 19 and not 12 October. - We will not give any awizowanego composition on the first leg qualifier. First, the oral conversations GKSŻ members were convinced that the first play-off is October 19. This information also bore on Extraleague and today it has been changed. However, we did keep the screenshots on your computer club and on the basis of well see how it all along the way changed. I do not understand what this is all about and why someone wants to suddenly make the first play-off October 12 - said in the pink portal SportoweFakty.pl Witold Skrzydlewski. Recall that the Eagle has already announced that he will not go in the playoffs if they do not receive support from the outside. As emphasized by the president Skrzydlewski, was about EUR 250 thousand. On Thursday, is about to take place special press conference at which the club Lodz inform its decision in relation to the competition in the play-offs. According to our information, the team Witold Skrzydlewskiego maintains its earlier position and decided not to participate in these meetings. The main sponsor of the Eagle criticizes the Polish authorities slag. Skrzydlewski believes that they have introduced significant confusion around the deadlines for play-off games. Screenshots made by Eagle: -> Calendar on page PZM -> Calendar for the PZM (as amended) -> Calendar Leagues International - The calendar of international events also bears the date October 19. Mistakes have to be too Speedway in Calendar year 2014 turns out that mistakes were everywhere? This is getting ridiculous. I think it is already a mockery. Now all of a sudden changed. Once again, I believe that you should report to the Minister of Sport, to see what is going on in Polish shale. It is after all a total mess. You can not change the deadlines as you want. The case is for us so much simpler that previously advertised that riding on Extraliga does not interest us. From one of the representatives of this company, I heard that a club like ours would lower the image of the tournament. When he talked to me yesterday, it's still politely discussed the October 19 deadline. Today, everything has changed. I do not know what it is. Scared that but go these playoffs? - Asks Skrzydlewski.

OveFundinFan Posted October 8, 2014 Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 I read on speedwaygp.com that Chris Harris reckons he is the only one of the 15 regular gp racers this year not to have made a semi-final, and he wants to put that right this Ssaturday, even though Torun has not been kind to him in the past. Another reason I cant wait for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
