OML

Over the 13 heat format of the 70's opposing number 1's only met in heat 1. Now they meet in 1, 13 and usually 15 so it is much harder to get a 9 point average now than it was then. Also, bonus points counted in the averages then but don't now.

Thought it would be. Will have to hope for a Ostrow Gdansk final then. Have driven there from Torun before, not the fastest journey ever.

Who gets the second legs? Is it the winner of 1 v 4 or the higher placed team in the league? Eg, if Gdansk get to the final, will they get the second leg of the final as the winner of 1 v 4?

Why bother having a National League team when you replace the main team's number 7 with a guest, when there's 2 riders in the NL team of a similar standard? Thought the point of having an NL team was to develop riders for the main team?

At no point was Ged ever going to be on the spanners for Danny and his name was not down on the sheet that was presented to Danny at the pit gate. His dad has an arm injury preventing him from spannering, otherwise he would have been there.

I've been near him in the pits twice when he's been tested. Both times he said why's it always me that gets "randomly" chosen, which suggests he's been tested on other occasions. Both times he was clear. Not trying to defend his actions in any way, deserves all he gets and more.

I know they're at home but I'd still fancy Lodz to do them. We shall see... I think a strengthened Bydgoszcz will hold on against Ostrow anyway which will make it irrelevant, especially as Ostrow don't have a play off spot to chase.

Thanks for the replies. I presumed it was 1v4 and 2v3 until I read that Torun are only a point away from promotion, which is why i asked. Was hoping the Bydgoszcz v Ostrow meeting would have something to fight for for both teams. Hopefully the Daugavpils meeting will be staged after the Bydgoszcz meeting now to keep Bydgoszcz on their toes as I can't see Daugavpils getting close to Lodz in their final match.

Is it 2nd and 3rd to the playoffs or 2nd to 5th?

I'm guessing it's half capacity on Friday and full on Saturday? Doesn't seem to make much sense.
