Seen earlier the reply of round 3 in Hallsted, as a warm up for last round Lublin on Eurosport starting 6pm today

 

Looking forward to it

[racers and royals]

David Bellego and oskar bober could be riding replacing MJJ and Smolinski

[racers and royals]

Meeting OFF now on Monday 18th September

[Ghostwalker]

I do hope MJJ decides to not ride. His arm injury needs resting.

He had pulled out today.

[Shockster]

Will Bjerre ride on Monday as it will clash with Belle Vue play off match with Wolves. As I understand, if he rides here then BV can't use RR or guest? Might as well hand tie to Wolves?

I`m in no doubt he will be at Belle Vue.

[Shockster]

I`m in no doubt he will be at Belle Vue.

I would hope so.

I am in Lublin. It rained all morning & then until about 4pm. But hasn`t rained since. Polish tracks are very good drainers so why hasn`t the meeting been run?

Or Why hasn`t it been rescheduled for Sunday.

I have a theory that the Polish Exstraliga is running this sport not the FIM?

Lots of Polish speedway tomorrow.

Ok the forecast for tomorrow here is worse than today but hey I was at Leszno last year & it rained all day til about 3pm they scrapped all the wet shale off the track dropped it on the infield & relaid it - started an hour later & finished by 10pm. But hey it was live on Polish TV. There`s a pattern here.

SEC will lose a lot from this.. Lots of Latvian & Brits outside stadium at 5-30.

Will be surprised if this series runs next season.

Spoke to the Eurosport lady on the telly & she was very apologetic.but the rest of the SEC officials just walked away after they made a statement in Polish. When I sked them to make a staement in English he just looked at me. When I asked why can`t they restage tomorrow he hide behind `the decision was made by the FIM Jury`.

Even had to get `shirty` to buy a programme from the ticket booth cos they didn`t want to sell them until the restaging. Had to tell them I was leaving before the restaging. This sport can be brilliant but at times I do question why i bother to follow this sport with some of the jack-ass decisions that are made. Maybe watching more ice hockey than speedway soon.

Certainly won`t be going anywhere near SEC events in the future. What a joke, No regard for the travelling supporters.

It`s been a shambles since I got here on Thursday. Went down to the track, No one knew when the practice was. Thought it was saturday at noon. Then I asked if the public would be able to watch they couldn`t answer that one either. Nothing on the website even though there was a guy sat on their website page all the time I was in the office.

Understandably you are not happy- but to talk to Marcelina is a real bonus The reserve date as agreed by FIM Europe was always Monday.Interestingly the re-arranged European U21 team final was at Krosno this afternoon - and the re-arranged date in the event of a rain off was tomorrow- which would have caused the 2 Extraleague matches to be postponed.

Couldn't possibly make the re-staging tomorrow and upset the Polish playoffs. Far better make it Monday, only the playoffs in Britain then. No track covers in Lublin?

[solrac]

Stole my thunder a bit there. No way it could be on the Sunday as Polish title decider 1st leg, which is the biggest fixture in League Speedway. Annoying I know, but reality.

[sommelier]

Well that was a long one for a rain off!
