Wozniak hung sayfutinov out to dry there, it could be argued Emil could of stayed on but imo emils forward momentum would of made him hit the fence anyway, so did the right thing to bail, ref got it wrong imo 

A 'tactical foul' riding Emil to the fence like that.

I’ve seen enough this season now to predict a Lublin vs Gorzow final. 
 

Either that or Lublin v Wroclaw imo.

By no means an expert but it was a dubious decision. Agree that if Emil had kept going the fence was going to get hit a lot harder. Unlike Emil to be so vociferous in responding to the decision and if at fault he is the sort of rider to admit he got it wrong. Onward and upward, still good to see top class speedway and Eurosport’s presentation of British speedway is so far behind the standard of Canal+ and alway great to see Mr Gollob on hand to voice some semblance of reason. Roll on to the next televised meetings from Poland.

I just saw a bit of it as they talking about it on magazine programme, when the presenter asked him “why he had Jason Doyle mechanics “and he replied “none of your business”

It's got the best riders but no way is it the best league in the world.

Unbalanced league leading to uncompetitive racing with 20+ batterings every week.

The only time you get to see a competitive meeting in the Ekstraliga is if it's between two relegation candidates.

 

Don’t really know what your watching,seen many better meetings irrespective of result than I have seen in Uk and run very Professionally,with great TV coverage.

It's like watching Ligue 1 Football where PSG clean up every year.

It's the most professional for sure, Not doubting that for one second, I'd just prefer to see a league that's a little more balanced instead of seeing so many uncompetitive meetings in Poland.

Like another member said, Maybe introduce a rule where only 2 GP riders per team are allowed.

Think one of the problems is how they deal with injuries.Some Teams can be very unlucky(as in GB) but NO Guests makes it a more legitimate outcome.Fans are watching their Team at all times.

He was asked if finishing second in the British final would kick start his season and he replied he'd been quick all year in the uk.  Then she asked why he'd changed to jason Doyles mechanics and he arrogantly replied it was none of her business.  It was the manner of it as much as anything.

And if you ever take that away...

You end up with no big crowds, which means no big TV contracts, which means no big sponsors..

Watching this reminds me of what it was like a good few years back at Ipswich watching Jarek and  co plough their trade around Foxhall on. Thursday evening. How the tables have turned and it will be many years before the sport in this country can rekindle what it was let alone compete head to head with Poland and attract riders who are generally locked in to unforgiving contracts. Surely it is time to re set the clock, stop trying what U K speedway cannot do and for a short time become insular, rebuild league racing and have the odd international meeting to test the competitiveness of the home grown riders  and when the time is right go head to head with the Poles or whoever. For now stop trying to pretend the UK version can match the Poles, it cannot it is now light years behind and with the BSPA having capitulated so much on race nights, what is really left.
