That was some of the best speedway I’ve seen in a long time. This city needs speedway Expand For me personally as someone who has only been following speedway a few years, that was the best meeting I’ve ever been too & that heat 15 was unbelievable… iversen keeping woffinden who was on a max behind him for 4 laps, absolutely unreal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand To be fair to me I generally know the difference between a native Polish name and Russian one as well - although ‘enko and ‘chenko usually denotes a Ukrainian name. ‘Ov usually denotes Russian. So at first I did wonder if Tarasenko was Ukrainian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydoo Posted August 21, 2023 Report Share Posted August 21, 2023 Would of thought there would of been something said during the meeting about the showground situation unless they were told to say nothing at this stage , Nicholls asked Wojdylo if he wanted to comeback again next year , but suppose he could of meant to the Uk and not specifically Peterborough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said re the pronunciation thing surely a bit of prep and asking the rider so how do you pronounce your name might be in order - Polish isn’t an easy language for us in the U.K. but writing it out phonetically would be a start - I was most surprised to see that Łódź is pronounced ‘wuj’ and I actually only learned that from a travel Tv show!

Expand Fair enough, you was there and I wasn't, I've been to most this season at Peterborough and it certainly didn't look like one of the biggest crowds, certainly not as many as for the recent Ippo meeting... or the Leicester match Edited August 21, 2023 by iainb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
