Col Posted June 22, 2020 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 (edited) In the battle to meet Rybnik in the relegation playoffs, Stal Gorzów Wielkopolski made a great leap towards that goal with an utterly abject performance against the only other realistic candidates, Motor Lublin. I watched up to heat 8 live until I was dragged away on fathers day duties, then watched the rest on YouTube later. Karczmarz is the only Gorzow rider who comes out with any real credit today (even he'd given up trying by the end), Thomsen battled early but that was about it. Then heat where Kasprzak & Wozniak gated on 1-5 but eventually conceded a 5-1 summed it up,. Wozniak has been awful both Gorzow meetings so far. All the Goats chipped in with handy points & battled but you know a meeting when Jaroslaw Hampel is top performer is never going to be a classic.

Who is their programme controller Mr Michael Mouse? 15 hours ago, Mark said: This happened with Premier in previous years. Why the shock in 2020. Mickey Mouse outfit who mess you about. From what I've seen of Premier Sport so far I can't see myself subscribing again next year (assuming there is live Speedway to attend), missing the first heat of a match, total confusion over the scheduling, EPG not being updated, insufficient commentary "team" and that's after just one week. 15 hours ago, Bagpuss said: I have a bit of sympathy with him there to be fair, I’m no fan of riders slowing down in front of others personally but each to their own. Enjoyable meeting with several good races. Looking forward to a non one sided meeting at some point though! There seemed to be hell of a lot of "left turning" in yesterday's meeting also 13 hours ago, pawel115 said: I spend some time on polish forums and pretty much everyone complained that the match at ZG was postponed, most people saying that the riders did not want to get dirty riding in those conditions acting like prima donnas. From the UK coverage it looked like young Lampart refused a TV interview after he'd tried to put young Karczmarz into the fence. I remember it being reported back in the day that riders in the British League used to refuse TV interviews and that was one of the reasons why British Speedway was absent from the TV screens from the mid 80's until 2000. It looks like a new breed of prima donna maybe being brought up in Poland... they should not bite the hand that feeds them as unlikely as it seems at the moment, the TV coverage may not always be there. 12 hours ago, Bagpuss said: Complaints and abuse on Twitter, surely not You really do have to wonder about some people. Abuse on Twitter (or any other forum) is absolutely out of order... but Dave Goddard did say in a previous tweet that "EVERY" Friday and Sunday match would be shown live, he also says "I do not control what is shown on our channels", while I accept he has no control over scheduling and he was told that every Friday and Sunday match would be shown live, he does use the phrase "our channels" indicating he is a Premier Sports employee and therefore I do feel complaints (not abuse) are valid so he can refer them back to the "powers that be"... just in the same way I would complain to any company employee if I thought I wasn't getting the service I was promised for them to feed back.

That would be entirely your own perogative, but as you have freely admitted you have paid precisely nothing, so how you expect any value from nothing I cant think. If you feel you wont subscribe after your free 3 months, as you believe that the channel is not worthy of the current subsciption fee, then that again would be your perogative. I myself took a reduced yearly subscription of £89. Quite happy to accept the speedway on offer and to be honest , quite a lot of the other sports which go with it for the next 12 months. Although it was the speedway which initially induced me to part with my cash. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
