And it doesnt really matter what the "rules" are, because, as we know, Polish Speedway will do exactly what is right for Polish Speedway, at even the slightest hint of them being impacted... Up to, and including, banning their riders from leaving... 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes but Poland may say that nobody including sportsmen are not allowed in from UK just like Germany. Spain etc are doing currently. Or come May Poland could be added to our red list, who knows, hopefully it won't happen, but like Mike said above if there is any slight risk of quarantine or travel restrictions then Polish teams just wont let them leave Poland. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

szkocjasid 3,046 Posted March 3, 2021 In normal circumstances I'd say the Belle Vue team lacks heat winners, but has strength in depth! But with a weakened league & no go riders in sight, they could have 5 heat leaders & I expect them to make the play-offs! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
