6 behind. Can't replace a U21 unless it's with the other U21

Can it only be used once? And can an under 21 replace the other at certain points too?

[Steve Shovlar 10,439]

Utterly dull meeting in what should have been a thriller. Poor Dave Goddard having to work to make this sound exciting. 

The Poles have got it badly wrong allowing teams to build to whatever strength they want, with two u21s at reserve. Leszno are just too dominant, to the detriment of the sport in Poland.

If 6 behind, they can use it as many times as they like, but only 1 extra ride for a rider.  Same 6 points for U21 to replace U21.

As the gap in scores widens so does my interest in this meeting diminish

I would argue that Częstochowa have on paper a stronger team than leszno and both Częstochowa reserves are better than slauderbach, the problem is Częstochowa are badly under performing, who is the better rider Doyle or Lidsey ? You would have said Doyle at the start of season but lidsey has out performed Doyle, that’s not the league’s fault, infact lidsey who wasn’t even put in the team at the start of the year has out performed every Częstochowa rider apart from madsen

Unless it’s Poole,it’s always a dull meeting for Shovler.

The home supporters must be a tad peed off I would think

'Is it worth risking Covid for this crap', they must be thinking

Disagree. Leszno look head and shoulders over every other team and this will continue for seasons to come unless there are rule changes.

This year has already been rendered a farce. There’s only one winner in 2020 and it’s the same as the last few seasons.

Keep calm Steve, save yourself for Brexit posts!!!

As you know, some folk say walkover racing like these constitute excellent meetings

Spot on..

A team that has three out of the top seven best riders in the world from last year shouldnt be getting smashed this way..

The system in Poland is fine..

Teams not performing some days is sport...

That’s cause they perform, they took a gamble with lidsey which paid off, kolodziej is past his best but still performs, slauderbach is not one of the top reserves, smektala could of struggled when he left the reserve berth, a lot of ifs there but they have all worked, Częstochowa have lindgren and Doyle who have both underperformed badly 

[Shockster 400]

To be honest tonight has not been a great spectacle.  The scoreline of 43-35 is totally down to Freddie Lindgren. He's got 1 which is unacceptable for a rider of his stature. If he had only another 4 the match is level. Trouble is Czestachowa have someone like him every week at the moment.
