hedders 5 Posted February 9, 2011 FIM say the first round of the Under 21 Championship will take place at Poole on 24 July (not 23 July at Coventry). The 14th round of the Polish leagues is scheduled to take place on 24 July. Will this affect the day’s events if there are a few riders involved in the U21 round? I seem to remember one time Leszno cancelled a meeting because Pavlic was riding in a rearranged U21 round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I seem to remember one time Leszno cancelled a meeting because Pavlic was riding in a rearranged U21 round. The Poles will re-arrange to ride on the monday or thursday. Probably effecting the EL fixtures (some were cancelled last year due to rider shortage) There doesn't seem an appropriate time to run FIM meetings. Every weekend there going to be something happening, unless they decide to run on the same night as the GP's? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why bring all the international fixtures into turmoil? Is this some retaliation action against the Polish League, with Matt Ford trying to disrupt their Sunday fixtures?

Bavarian 767 Posted February 10, 2011 greyhounds racing takes place on saturdays, nothing to do with matt ford, check your facts before critisising accepted, if Saturdays at Poole are blocked by the dogs. Maybe their regular Wednesday night could be used for this F.I.M. meeting, but I am aware that such meetings are usuallly always held on a weekend date. But I remember in the old days, Wembley used to stage even the world finals on their regular Thursday night. Anyway, the Polish League clubs will not be amused with this move by the British authorities. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lucifer sam 3,953 Posted February 11, 2011 Tough. Here, here. Who gives two hoots about the Polish League - about time they had to re-arrange their fixtures. All the best Rob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brewer 159 Posted February 27, 2011 it seems strange that the british u21 final is only 2 days before the qualifier at herxheim, so have the two places been allocated already, as in the past it has been by qualification from GB U21 to worlds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
