Empty stadium One-sided, not sure how Lublin have so many top riders in their team. Awful racing, riders are far apart. Polish Speedway is boring. I think you will find that the current meeting on the stream is an example of some of the best and Emil is showing student Laguta how to ride. If you take a view of u k speedway it is on it knees in terms of entertainment, crowd support and atmosphere and only in the u k play offs can you scratch the surface by comparison. Watch a few more meetings and you may find that the U.K. is the pits by comparison with contrived commentary, poor filming and disappointment in terms of entertainment. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mikebv 10,277 Posted August 27, 2023 Excellent meeting again from Poland... Emil... And, a great ride from Tai to protect Kowalski... Polish Speedway...

I expect like me thought he would end up last in both the last two heats against the top guys in the world but he took five points from the two rides, he has come on a bomb this year just like Cierniak Edited August 27, 2023 by jrs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know and hopefully someone will be able to tell us. In such illustrious company today I thought he was brilliant to top score for Wroclaw with twelve points.

I would say the racing in the UK is miles better than Poland. . The Polish league itself is also pretty stupid with teams so much stronger than others.. Everyone knows what the final is before the start of the season ..Most of the matches are like Man City playing Barnet at football. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robinh88 571 Posted August 28, 2023 Inspite of my personal views of the Polish play off system - I did enjoy the meeting yesterday. Thought Torun showed heart, determination and got a little bit of good fortune. Will Lublin be able to sustain this level of success? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
