Details from Stal if anyone wishes to read: After losing two matches to Krono-Plast Wtokniarz, the shareholders of Gezet Stali Gorzów considered putting the club into bankruptcy. In the end, this did not happen, but other clubs have already become interested in the biggest stars of Steel. Jack Holder, Anders Thomsen, Oskar Paluch, and even Pawet Przedpetski, are fasty bites. Unofficially, we know that it will not be easy to them from Gorzów. The relevant provisions in the contracts strongly bind the hands of the players. And here comes the problem. Unofficially, we know that Holder, Przedpetski and Thomsen will not be easy to from Stal. And you certainly can't get it out for free. After the match with Wtokniarz, there was no feta and announcement of the extension of the contract with Thomsen, but we know that the Dane signed a pre-contract for 2026. And there is no possibility that he would break it on one side. The situation of Holder and Przedpetski is identical. Holder has a lucrative contract (1.1 million zlotys for signature and 11 thousand zlotys per point plus sponsorship allowances) and a powerful commitment in case of desire to break this contract. If now Holder decided that he wanted to part with Stala, he would have to pay half a million zlotys to the club. Holder could only leave for free if Stal fell out of the Extraliga. Such a clause is also in his contract. The same solution was used in the case of Przedpetski. He would also have to pay half a million to leave the extra-league Stal. For him, as for Holder, the only chance for a free-free termination of the contract would be an inheritance. Someone will say that there is no drama, because if Stal falls in a month, all three will be able to leave for free. It's not that simple. Thomsen has no clause at all allowing him to leave. On the other hand, Holder and Przedpetski may not get the offers they can currently count on in a month. In a month, the number of volunteers will decrease. Both of them, signing papers with Stal, hoped that the season would end in the two-match match with Wtókniarz. The worst for the players, however, is the prospect of riding in a club around which it is hot again. It seemed that Steel had the worst behind it. On the one hand, the reduction of debt from 13 (that was the autumn of 2024) to 4 million is a success, but on the other hand, this financial hump is still there. And it is not known if this will not affect the liquidity in 2026.

ill be at Bellevue, Monday, but then off to Antalya, on Thursday, for 2 weeks so will miss 2nd leg, also last gp. probably end up watching on my phone, can get all polish meetings on my phone.

Going to go to Belle Vue Monday. Weather permitting, been last 2 weeks to Sheffield for 2 rain offs v Ipswich. Maybe jinxed. 🤣

Nah fajfer is good for about 5 points normally on a good day! I don’t think even this match is done and dusted, Stal have really managed some strange results good and bad! I think it’s set to be Stal vs Bydgoszcz personally. Knowing my luck, Brennan to score 0 for Ipswich vs Belle Vue and knock us out, then max out against Stal and knock my Polish team out 😂

Stal not out of the woods just yet. Bydgosz/Leszno will be a more difficult test, but I expect them to win.

Weather can be very localised in Central Belt of Scotland. Difficult one,I’m sure it will have an early call off if in real doubt.

Glasgow won't pull it back with that team. No Villads, no win.

Very iffy. Could go either way. Currently looking like rain from midday.

He won't be averaging 7 will he? Away as well.

I reckon it’s a blinder played the Witches, a nothing match for them and let’s make the others believe they are vulnerable at home before smashing teams in the semis and final. Well they should be with this team. Anything less will be a failure this season. THE strongest team all season and built very cleverly there is no better chance of winning the league. It’s the play offs so anything can happen obviously. The Aces look the weakest of the 4 but they have good pedigree in the more recent play offs so I guess they shouldn’t be written off at anyone’s peril. Can’t see them doing it tho this year.

Anyone interested, Fajfer scored 7 points from his rides

3 tractors on the track tonight during the intervals! Are they polishing this track? 🤔

Krok will get his full 4 rides at Gorzow to keep the wage bill down. Fajfer will be well enough to ride also. 😄

Weather forecast looks dire for those travelling long distances. What do the locals say?

Heat 14 should've been red light

I have heard that Jason Doyle earned £55k for his maximum in last week's Polish play off

Certainly woukdnt be all over even with that sort of lead Equally if it's 10 or less it's still game on too I think these plays offs are the most open for a while both in the semis and the final regardless of the combination of qualifiers

Drabik engine was assembled incorrectly and now has broken and leaking oil so he has had to change bikes.

Yeah, Nicki has had his time. Brilliant back in the day, but going through the motions now. Fair play at his age to be right about it.

Disappointed Nagel missing again.Definitely a big loss.Loftus good replacement for Perry though.Take a big effort for Tigers .IMO.

Wouldn't be surprised if Nicki announced his retirement, can't see an extraleague team taking him on next year. 49 next year probably time to get out.

They've got no chance

Kamil Cieślar

Maybe just as well, Comets dire

Buffered for 3 heats, went off before Heat 8 but seems to be back now (for tractor racing). I’ve messaged them. To be fair there are normally no issues.
