Will we now see an influx of riders wanting to ride over here again as they can't get team spots in Poland. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
superguest 194 Posted October 29, 2010 Very, very interesting. Will we now see an influx of riders wanting to ride over here again as they can't get team spots in Poland. I can't see it happpening. The new points limit may result in a few having to drop to the 1st division, but they'll all still find team places. I think the two GP rider rule still stands, although should possibly be changed to 2 in the top 10, three overall? Rumours: Crump to Rzeszów? Emil to Zielona Gora?

racers and royals 8,771 Posted October 29, 2010 Rzeszow were discussed on the Czestochowa v Gdansk thread some weeks ago-the lady boss has a few bob !! I`m hoping to see one of their home matches next season as Ryanair has a late flight on Sunday evening to Stansted which leaves at 9.10pm-so if the match started at 4pm it would be over in time.

Mama 28 Posted October 29, 2010 (edited) Emil will stay in Bydgoszcz (as Walasek did) Some interesting movements (for now they're rumours because clubs are allowed to sign contracts with riders from another clubs from the beginning of December!): - Crump to Rzeszów - Holta to Toruń - Jonsson to Zielona Góra - Lindgren to ?? - Lindback to Tarnów ? - Ward to Gdańsk (loan) Edited October 29, 2010 by Mama Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CMA was in Poland 1999-2002. In 1999 and 2000 it was max 46, 2001 - 44, 2002 - 42. There was no minimum. 2. CMA x 1,3 if one league difference, CMA x 1,6 it two leagues difference 3. Here you have CMA's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bradford Ace 183 Posted October 29, 2010 Emil will stay in Bydgoszcz (as Walasek did) Some interesting movements (for now they're rumours because clubs are allowed to sign contracts with riders from another clubs from the beginning of December!): - Crump to Rzeszów - Holta to Toruń - Jonsson to Zielona Góra - Lindgren to ?? - Lindback to Tarnów ? - Ward to Gdańsk (loan) Was delighted to see Walasek stay as had a decent season & would be fantastic if Emil stayed as well & shud put us well on the way to promotion again - i'm a Bydgoszcz Polish League fan!!! Lindback was awful for us last yr & surprised an Ekstraliga club wanted him really so good riddance given he only shows flashes of brilliance and the rest of the time he's pretty useless..like when i saw him at home to Wroclaw last season!!! Any rumours of other signings for Bydgoszcz??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mateusz 0 Posted October 29, 2010 (edited) Emil stays in Bydgoszcz, no worries about that Bydgoszcz 2010 line-up: seniors - Sayfutdinov (captain) - Walasek - Kosciecha - Gizatullin - Okoniewski or Jonasson or Lindgren or ...? - that's the only unknown juniors - Wozniak - some other local u-21 or some undiscovered talent from UK or Australia We're gonna have a pretty decent team for Division 1 and I do hope we'll win the league next year and get back to Ekstraliga where our place is Edited October 29, 2010 by Mateusz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
superguest 194 Posted October 30, 2010 Theres talk of Freddie not wanting to stay at Zielona Gora, they could replace him easily in the short term, but having ridden for them for 5 years, It won't be easy on either front and long term he will be around for a lot longer than Hancock and Crump etc... He had some problems with the managment not letting him practise ahead of the final because he is terrible when his home track is slick. Possibly, he needs to race in Div 1 and become a heatleader there first? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thought they'd all be leaving after the relegation which would have been so unfair given that 1 injury ruined the season. Wozniak was looking good from what i saw of him so if we can get another decent Junior then promotion is looking good & really glad the likes of Walasek, Gizatullin & Kosciecha are staying as they owe us for last season!! Shame re AJ & Lindback but both were pretty crap last yr so not end of the world!!!! ps..is the Lindgren u mention Freddie or his younger brother?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vicar 2 Posted October 30, 2010 (edited) Don't be excited For now just Walasek signed. You never know where someone will be riding until the contract will be signed! I'm also not so glad of leaving AJ and AL... Especially Antonio, because he really could ride very good, and I think he can fight and had many great speedway actions... We will see. Yes, he meant Freddie. But he will not fits to CMA, beacuse: 1. Walasek 10,24 2. Emil 9,5 3. Kościecha 6,84 4. Gizatullin 5,80 5. (max 8,21) 6. Woźniak 3,41 and Freddie have CMA 8,5. But there are mainly rumours. As I wrote - until the contract is signed many thinks can change. So take it easy Edited October 30, 2010 by Vicar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
