How many pints of beer would admission be in each country? In the UK, with beer in the pubs at £3.50 (round figures) a pint and CL / PL admission in the order of £17.50 (ish) you could say that that speedway admission costs about 5 pints of beer. In Poland, that "£10 admission" would be about 48-50 Zlotys (depending on how it was rounded up or down) With beer in Poland being around 7-8 Zlotys, you could say that the admission there is in the order of 6-8 pints of beer. By that logic (economists call it "opportunity cost") speedway in Poland is actually more expensive than in the UK. £3.50 a pint. Is this 2010 prices ?

Col 854 Posted June 30, 2019 Czestochowa have 3 GP winners yet don't make the playoffs, amazing really. Or is it 4? Has Adrian Miedziński won a GP as a Wildcard? No matter no other team has 3 riders that have won a GP in the last few years. Obviously NKI, Doyle & Chris Holder have all won a GP on Torun books. But Holder & NKI's last wins must be a while ago. For the record I doubt NKI will have trouble finding Ekstraliga employment next year, along with Doyle. Might do Jack good holding down a regular team spot in Nice Div 1. Or ever? Memory not great. FZG - Pedersen. Dudek (probably). Protasiewcz, MJJ (unlikely). Leszno - Kolodzeij, Sayfutdinov. Hampel (probably). No to Wroclaw & Lublin. Grudziadz - Lindback. Bjerre (unlikely). Gorzow - Zmarzlik. Kasperzak (probably). Kildemande (maybe). Have no sympathy for Turon being relegated, team manager using Jack Holder (#8) instead of Paweł Przedpełski cost them his services. Przedpełski may not have developed into the world beater they hoped but certainly would rank in top 10 poles if you ignore the U21 reserves & such Polish riders have to fill 16 team slots.

I am aware Woffinden & Janowski have won GP's recently, but I was asking if any team other than Czestochowa had 3 riders who had won a GP in the last few years. Wroclaw have two, certainly not a third. It is difficult to sleep when the next door neighbors eldest's 18th Birthday is still going on! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Col 854 Posted June 30, 2019 Totally forgot Vaculik. That answers the question, FZG have three GP winners from the last couple of years for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
