New Science Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 NOT sure about that. Know of at least two other Polish tracks vying for a GP, which is another reason why Witkowski's words (only SGPs in Poland) didn't go down well.Which tracks are they ?

PHILIPRISING Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 Which tracks are they ? NOT at liberty to say but if I had to put money on any track right now it would be Gorzow. Although in Poland anything can happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f-s-p Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 Yes, because the tickets said 16! Why does speedway always want to screw over the fans?! I just cant be without asking... Deleted this post 2 already but need to know: Where did it state 16? In the ticket? Or in the kupbilet sales conditions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Know of at least two other Polish tracks vying for a GP, which is another reason why Witkowski's words (only SGPs in Poland) didn't go down well.I think this may be the line trotted out to the good people in Gorzow,be careful other tracks are interested,don't wait too long,it sounds similar to the case when Man City signed Raheem Sterling.Liverpool kept telling them there were other interested parties interested when in fact there wasn't and in effect were bidding against themselves.Have not heard any rumours in the Polish press of tracks who have openly stated they would prepared to have a GP,most clubs seem to have money problems or have had GP's in the past and decided they wanted out.

uk_martin Posted September 14, 2015 Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 World Cup to Manchester? http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/other-sport/speedway/manchesters-750k-bid-speedway-world-10030337 They want to build a stadium that can bid for the SWC. Nothing has been awarded yet. We all know that the intention is to award it at some point, but will it be in 2016 or will it have to wait longer? The very interesting quote in that article is the one from Councillor Rosa Battle (what a name lol) - "The Belle Vue Aces are in on-going discussions with IMG on the potential for a five-year programme of World Cup-related events to be hosted at the National Speedway Stadium, including the World Cup Final.” - Five years of SWC involvement. So the British qualifier will be moved from Kings Lynn to Belle Vue then at the very least. And maybe for the first year all BV will get will be the British qualifying round to see how things go with a view to staging the final in 2017 when the venue has proven itself...who knows?

PHILIPRISING Posted September 14, 2015 Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 ASSUMING that the stadium is complete (going there this Friday to have a look with Chris Morton and Peter Collins) my belief as that the SWC will be there next year and probably the GP Challenge the year after. Chris was in Krsko and told us that work on laying the actual track will commence very soon. The drainage has already been done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWC ... race-off and final. Have no idea what deal might be done but presumably BV will only agree to staging if it benefits them which will also have a knock on effect for British speedway.

PHILIPRISING Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 GOOD point... will enquire IT will be the ninth one and I don't think BSI are sure which SGP that will be yet. But it will certainly be celebrated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
