2ndbendbeerhut 1,781 Posted February 3, 2021 Its one thing the Polish speedway league allowing riders to ride in different leagues.... but a totally different matter to whether the Polish Government will allow it ( UK/ Danish/ Swedish governments too) 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And if things are still "dicey" come the season start in Poland, then Polish Speedway will just ban everyone from leaving their country if they want a team place anyway... Or if they dont "ban" them from leaving, as that might be too controversial, they will put some compulsory to attend practice meetings together on nights when riders should be 'elsewhere'.... Maybe the UK leagues initially will still name riders who 'may' still ride over here just to put seven names on a team sheet? Then use guests to cover their potential non attendance due to "circumstances beyond their control"... And then hope that later in the season more relaxed rules will apply as the vaccines kick in and reduce the global risk so the initial septets named can all get on track.. With such ever changing logistical issues it must be a nightmare planning for this season, however, I would imagine the promoters would feel that having two years of no UK Speedway on track, and on TV, is something they will do absolutely everything they can to avoid... As March/April 2022 will be an awfully long way from the last meeting in October 2019.. Edited February 3, 2021 by mikebv 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes we are doing really well on vaccines but also as Piers Morgan says on a daily basis, we have the highest daily deaths in Europe. So why would Poland allow riders to travel in and out of UK? By May it might be a bit different and we can only go on what is happening at the moment. As Brady has said in the past the Polish league is his main priority so don't expect him to fight his Polish club if they don't want him to go to the UK in between...

Dandelion 775 Posted February 4, 2021 (edited) I presume either Jack or Josh won't be back? Unless they want to go for this, which looks awful tbh. No offence Ashley, you're one of my favourite riders 1. Troy Batchelor 8.82 2. Ashley Morris 3.24 3. Josh Grajczonek 7.29 4. Kyle Howarth 5.58 5. Jack Holder 7.49 6. 3.08 Left? 7. ???

iris123 20,852 Posted February 4, 2021 On 2/2/2021 at 3:55 PM, The Cheese said: He had to quarantine but under FA rules had permission to join Chelsea's bubble as he tested negative before flying into the country. So basically he was allowed into the training ground and stadium but nowhere else Interesting today to read that Mustafi has to stay isolated from the Schalke team. He is allowed to train alone, but not with the team. Not sure if that is DFB or government rules though. But anyway, let's hope it is all a formality by the time the season comes along Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
