But lynn shouldn’t get a facility for him as he has returned to riding three times since his uk absence. Fit enough to score 7 points from four rides though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see an anything other than a big home win here which means as a neutral I may just watch the highlights after. But lets hope its a cracker! Maybe KL have the advantage at reserve! Whilst our last encounter with the Stars was no classic there were 6 decent races after bend 3 lap 1 and an additional 3 passes on bend 3 lap one, or so the markings of my programme indicate. If the Stars gate it should entertain me though not the gate’n’go fans at home. The lack of a close score will also put them off no matter how many exciting (to me) races there are. Not one for the modern purist I’m afraid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes things just fall into place and 2021 was one such occasion and very enjoyable it was. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShanoXtra Posted August 12 Report Share Posted August 12 I get the comments about polish clubs shielding their assets but that remark falls short when nobody on here I’ve seen has yet to mention basso took part in the danish individual championship as well where he rode on the 7th August? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawk127 Posted August 12 Report Share Posted August 12 Phil Morris explanation regarding rider replacement and guests is just putting a plaster over the real problems with speedway in this country. If the rules had allowed for signings for injured riders things might be different, but no, the powers that be went for the broad brush approach. His excuses for where the sport is because of rider shortage is not acceptable and since when have those in charge given a second thought to Joe Public. He is talking as much horse s..t as the BSPL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawk127 Posted August 12 Report Share Posted August 12 Unfortunately the Polish scene knocks spots off the UK presentation and any rider worth his salt would rather ride in front of a packed crowd with an atmosphere that is second to none compared to the sparse speedway support that turns up at a UK stadia. Those that ride in Poland and frequent UK teams/tracks are simply topping up the pension. If you are a regular who watches on Kergel then you will understand the phrase chalk and cheese when watch weekend racing from Poland versus what is served up from the UK Clubs. The UK broadcaster cannot ever offer a comparable form of entertainment no matter who are the commentators and if they had any sense they would quietly part the sport in some dark corner and leave it to BSN to show the best bits from the lower leagues. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is very big in certain towns and cities, but nationally not on the level of football overall.. Volleyball, Basketball and Handball are all very well supported Polish sports too.. Polish Speedway does well as it doesn't run it's leagues in the ridiculous way that the UK does, hence thousands of fans can emotionally, and tribally, invest into their team, and sponsors and TV support it knowing it is bonus fide sports championship that all teams race for.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
