Seeing as the article says they are furious I guess they had not written it off! But kinda been made to? Depends what guests they can have I suppose!

The Devils are not riding Saturday, so they could fill the holes of the missing riders. That would fulfill the fixture. I am sure the Weggies would enjoy seeing the Millars at Ashfield.

I love how Glasgow are getting dragged into this when we agreed to move the meeting to the Saturday to suit the Monarchs but now they want to move it back after we have made arrangements to run on Saturday

It’s just a mess really.There was a day when a Scottish Derby in the KO Cup would have been eagerly anticipated by both sets of fans and a highlight of the season.Unfortunately these days are distant memories.Sad.

Fail to see where anyone has dragged Glasgow into this

You could always appeal to Masters and Pickering's sense of loyalty and if that doesn't work tell them they are sacked if they ride in Poland.

You could but they would correctly choose to ride in Poland!! Stupid move to sack them when theres no one to replace them

You did not so long ago, "you'd need to ask the home club". Read between the lines of the statement too pretty obvious who it's aimed at

There is one Club at fault here and it's not Edinburgh or Glasgow its Rawicz.

Dishonouring commitments, playing the bully and disregarding other European Countries is a stain on Polish Speedway.

It's crystal clear that Championship Clubs, particularly those who race on Saturday / Sunday and indeed any other Club wishing to ride on those dates or on occasions on a Friday; are going to be compromised by people who will chop and change Fixtures at a whim. 

Please don't beat each other up when the perps are in Poland!

Absolute rubbish from start to finish- haven’t you read anything from people who know !! All Polish E Winner league matches are scheduled for Saturday/ Sunday and Mondays as per fixture list and are only determined 2/3 weeks before as to regards when over the 3 days- this is mainly due to international commitments( Sec world championship qualifying etc etc) and and TV purposes.

Div 2 is exactly the same only Saturday/ Sundays and for the weekend in question was decided which days only on May 24th. 
not great for GB clubs running weekends but that’s how it is.

The Polish clubs in this instance Tarnow and Rawicz did NOT change anything on a whim !!!

Time for riders to decide, Britain or Poland, not both.

Not practical. Clubs just need to communicate
