Where do you think they get the info from?

Don't know or care but it's not a Glasgow statement 

I’ll take full responsibility. I write the press releases.

Unless rules have changed, it always used to be a condition of entry for Polish riders unless they were on a ACU license. We’ll see.

He’s racing for Stal Rzeszow in 2023 ?? But again this probably doesn’t fit in with the “Glasgow lots of money, I hate them” narrative that some of our forum friends like to adopt.

[Cast1rn]

Be very mindful when reading these “press releases” that some of them especially Polish ones are, Google translated with 0 checking.

my personal favourite was “Marcin joined Glasgow in 2021, kicking Justin Sedgeman out the team”

[Najjer]

Interesting that the wording has now been changed on the British Speedway site - but it still says he’s leaving ALL Polish Leagues .

Working for Allied Vehicles in between his speedway commitments like others previously?

Note they also have a base in Coventry.

Well I hope he's putting in the hours and getting paid the market rate. Otherwise some unkind individuals might think it a ruse to get round the regulations on signing on fees.

This place is mental.

I blame Blobby.

Marcin  coming in at the start of the season   will really improve he arrived for the later stages last year and scored well at home from the start i think he scored double figures every home meeting  he only rode away at Edinburgh struggled with heavy track conditions but got round it easy enough and he will get the hang of it at berwick where he had ignition troubles with his bike  and poole where his polish engine was just far too strong for the slick track and he only had one bike over with him he had a spare bike that cookie loaned him but didn’t really suit his size  but he said he liked he tracks a real racer expect his to put at least 2/3 points on his ave i think after his first ride next season  it will go from 5 to just over 7 points

I think our number 6 will be a young Aussie who agreed to go elsewhere and then changed his mind will be announced next.

I expect the in the knows to reply very quickly as to how this scandal shouldn’t be allowed and it’s not fair that they splash the cash.

Unless the rules have changed (and they may have) I think Marcin would need to complete 4 meetings to get a new average last years rule book stated 8 fixtures were needed at Championship level for a new average Marcin only did 4 league matches in 2021

What are the current rules about getting a "proper" average, as opposed to an assessed one? Is it still 4H and 4A?

I don’t know it’s just on my Xmas list.

I am not one of the privileged that don’t know anything, I just don’t know anything.
