Hazzman 72 Posted June 9, 2006 Holta beeing... I'd better will not end this sentence... Let me just translate yeterday's program of the meeting: Robert Gesiarz - the manager of Rune Holta - claims, that Rune is not going to go after his place in qualifications as a Pole. He's going to ride as a Norwegian I've been always saying that his Polish citizenship is just a crap, made only for money (he was able to ride as a Pole when foreigners were limited in our league). <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Same old, same old. I bet when it comes to riding for the Lions, he will be back Polish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Subedei 0 Posted June 9, 2006 Same old, same old. I bet when it comes to riding for the Lions, he will be back Polish. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Doesn't ride for Czestochowa now - moved, amid much rancour, to Rzeszow during the winter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PolskiZuzel 329 Posted June 9, 2006 I've been always saying that his Polish citizenship is just a crap, made only for money (he was able to ride as a Pole when foreigners were limited in our league). <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Champion, why don't you see the other side of a coin. In my view - and that is the other side of a coin :-) - it was not Holta who begged for the Polish passport. It was the Czestochowa club who wanted him as a Pole. I would even say that it was not Holta who wanted to be in Poland's last year World Cup squad, but Poland's speedway bosses who felt that with Rune in their side Poland stood bigger chance of lifting the Cup. And so they were proved right, but - in my opinion - Poland would win it anyway, with or without Holta. The stink however remains. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gorgrel 0 Posted June 9, 2006 Ekstraliga fixtures: http://www.sportowefakty.pl/index.php?dysc...00&dzial_id=358 As for Bydgoszcz. The best option to get from the railway station (Bydgoszcz Glowna) to the stadium is in my opinion taking a taxi. Polish taxis are not that expensive as the ones here so it should be a quick and cheap ride for you. A must watch match is also Torun v Bydgoszcz (18 June), the next battle of the most famous holy war in a speedway world. And if you get to the stadium there in Torun about 1 hour before the meeting you'll get a chance watch something incredible over the stadium. I cannot say anything more as that's definitely classified information.. (guys from Torun may check this forum) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah I'm going to the Torun match too - I'm assuming you could give me directions from the nearest station again ? (Feel free to pm me with the 'top secret' information !) Thanks again mate ! Cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My understanding was that he felt it would improve his standing with the GP organisers if he rode well in such an event. If he now reverts back to being Norwegian, I think most people will see it as a cynical move and he would lose a lot of goodwill. Having said that I do feel he is one of the top 15 in the world and is worthy of GP status. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Champion 0 Posted June 12, 2006 Champion, why don't you see the other side of a coin. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Becouse there are always two sides needed to make a deal, and Holta was the one talking (at the beggining) a lot of crap about beeing connected with Poland, etc.If he now reverts back to being Norwegian Oh no, he doesn't revert now, becouse he has never forgotten abut beeing Norwegian. Let me just quote Holta's interview about 2 years ago: "I really hope that my riding will bring a lot of splendour for Norway". And where are all of his health problems (he was even supposed to be hospitalized), while he was riding yesterday in Lotos Cup in Gdansk ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
