Janowski has been awful all year in the GPs, Dudek not much better. Kolodziej always fails on the World Stage.

That's the big contest of the SF. I'm thinking Danes will have too much for Aussies. Lord knows why Germany & Czechia were in SF1, when they're both way stronger than France & Finland. Did Latvia not wish to enter? A rest of the world team of Zagar, Vaculik, Lebedevs, Becker & the Ukrainian guy would make it more interesting.

Doyle should know better by now. If one ruder steams under another rider and makes contact, if the other rider goes down. The referee is highly likely to exclude the inside diver, regardless of how much space on track there is. Bewley knew it and went down when IMO he could have stayed on. Wright was harsh on Sayfutdinov in heat 14, if Sayfutdinov had gone down no one would have complained. But Wright never moved in heat 15! Brennan & Blodorn won their meeting for the Aces IMO, must have massively out performed their Witches counterparts. But haven't looked at the actual scores. Hopefully that's a small scare & a kick up the butt for the Aces Witches problem for me is Riss, he simply isn't competitive, barely contributes.

Lewandowski is employed in & lives in Spain. World ranked #1 Women's Tennis.

Bodes well with all the Danes, Janowski & Doyle struggling in last night's GP. Even Zmarzlik looked human.

Iga Świątek will take some beating on the highest paid Sports person in Poland I would imagine.

Wright doesn't ride in Poland regularly, Worrall does. That said Harris isn't a Polish League regular these days. Guess he's included due to his experience.

That was fairly turgid viewing on the TV. Hope it was better in Owlerton. May as well declare the league done & dusted. Aces, Leicester, Wolves & Tigers in PO. Ross was awful, never looked like scoring. Didn't he win the PLRC (whatever it was then called) at Owlerton a few years ago? King & Doyle couldn't back Sayfutdinov up enough. Rew did OK, but needed to win heat 8.

Worrall in white, Polis in Red. Polis seems to be the instigator to me.

I'm a few miles directly North and it is hammering it down here.

That's translated from https://sportowefakty.wp.pl/ Worrall finish 2nd, Polis 3rd.

Forecast isn't great for today according to Met Office but it is due to stop raining at 19:00.

Looks like a stronger septet to me with experienced riders replacing inexperienced riders. So it's... Morris, Starke, Nielsen, Batchelor, Sedgeman, Bowtell, Hagon?

After seeing him last week I'd put Richie Worrall @#5

Kings Lynn are not much better. If people won't show up for Sayfutdinov then they're not Speedway fans. But as it is televised you won't be getting many travelling fans.

Having sung the praises of the M6 between Manchester & Cannock on the Leicester hosted Prem Pairs thread it bit me on the ass big time tonight! Meeting done & dusted early for the flat track & female rider demo. In car by 21:15, thought great I'll be home by 22:30. Nah! M6 rubbish J17-J16 & A449 from Shugborough. Marvelous. #hatehighwaysagency Still better than M6 through Brum. Absolute drubbing for Wolves, score probably would have been bigger but a few Aces (Bewley, Lidsey & Wright) struggled in their opening rides. Toss up between Kurtz & Blodorn for top performer. Bewley picking his way through traffic in heat 15 probably the highlight. Kurtz blasting around Worrall on the final bend after making up about 20 metres in 2 laps close behind. Smith's paid win however got the biggest applause. Masters aside Wolves were not at the races and even their captain struggled in the middle of the meeting.. Aggregate bonus should be secured with that result. But if it isn't leaving not replacing Smith with Brennan in heat 12 could be costly.

Weather forecast according to the Met Office is looking better now than it was yesterday, majority of rain should be over by early afternoon with only a small chance of showers after 14:00.

I think a blind person could offer the Eurosport Speedway editor advice on which camera to show. Why show the rider 40 metres in the lead when you could "throw an Army blanket" over the other three Completely clueless.

I rarely have any problems on the M6 from Cannock to Altrincham (A556 junction) getting to or from Belle Vue. The M6 through Walsall & Birmingham is just awful, permanently, even on a Sunday when we often go to Coventry Blaze it can be awful. The biggest problem getting home from Belle Vue on a night is if the meeting ends 21:45 or later because the M56 is often shut at 22:00 and A roads to Altrincham are not fun. There was an awful lot of tractoring, before the semi I think the entire stadium erupted when the tractor finally left the track. Track was certainly not as good as when the Aces visited a few weeks ago.

Just got home. The M6 was absolutely appalling. #viaCoalvilleNextTime I thought it would be decided between the two Premiership Northern Clubs ... and it was.but in the semi. Not sure Musielak was ever really comfortable with the track though. Fair play to Richie Worrall he was the best rider on track tonight (with Klindt a close 2nd) but Panthers never had a hope in the final. Cook was always coming last against Aces & Tigers pairings. Jorgensen was awful.. never looked like scoring. Riss & Masters were not much better. Steve Worrall rode well & was involved in probably the best two races being overhaled by his brother & Holder. Fair play to Kemp did well for an RS bet Leicester wish they'd chosen Harris or Lawson rather than Sedgeman now. He was poor. Racing wasn't as good as Aces visit a few weeks ago and neither were the two Lions riders. Dude on microphone said it was slicker than normal. It suited Kurtz better (eventually) once Bewley allowed him the outside gate. Fricke wasn't as spectacularly awesome as Belle Vue's humbling either .

Met Office forecast for Leicester is dry from 5 am.

Has Wright ever ridden regularly in Poland?

If not Ellis, who? Lawson, Harris?

Oh... it's semi finals?

Thought Holta took up Polish citizenship once his GP career was over. Is there a run off for first & third at Swedish final tonight or is this one round of several?
