Ghostwalker Posted October 5, 2015 Report Share Posted October 5, 2015 I don't know and as I have said before, Ostrow have previously have doubts whether or not to accept a possible promotion. However IIRC and IF the translations were correct I got the impression of that Grudziadz might be offered to remain in Ekstraliga. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostwalker Posted October 6, 2015 Report Share Posted October 6, 2015 So it seems that Daugavpils are interested in riding in Ekstraliga next season but apparently, according to Daugavpils, the interest is not mutual. https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=sv&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fsportowefakty.wp.pl%2Fzuzel%2F551943%2Fekstraliga-niezainteresowana-lokomotivem-lotysze-licza-na-zmiane-stanowiska&edit-text= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humphrey Appleby Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 This is what puzzles me...If Daugavpils "can't" be promoted, and Grudziadz are definitely relegated, why are Ostrow competing with Rzeszow for the rights to be in the Ekstraliga next year? Surely the Ekstaliga won't reduce to just 7 teams, so will Ostrow get promoted whether or not they beat Rzeszow as a second choice candidate after Daugavpils? As things stand after the first leg, so what if they did? BUT theoretically, supposing that they do beat Rzeszow on aggregate, they can only get promoted once but they effectively relegate a second team....then what happens? Almost as farcical as British speedway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dare say they'll keep going until they find a track not in Latvia prepared to take the risk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
