That said re the pronunciation thing surely a bit of prep and asking the rider so how do you pronounce your name might be in order - Polish isn’t an easy language for us in the U.K. but writing it out phonetically would be a start - I was most surprised to see that Łódź is pronounced ‘wuj’ and I actually only learned that from a travel Tv show! Isn't Emils nickname,,, the Russian Rocket Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No denying 0000 is a dud score - however take away Woffinden and it would have been an absolute pasting! Need Tobias back for sure - but Jacks return means no Tai?

Fair enough, you was there and I wasn't, I've been to most this season at Peterborough and it certainly didn't look like one of the biggest crowds, certainly not as many as for the recent Ippo meeting... or the Leicester match Edited August 21, 2023 by iainb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would say when there were 3 sections of the main stand closed and big gaps in those that were open 1k would be excellent Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So 1400 and the rest 300, so a good 1700 hundred plus i would say. Excellent for a TV meeting. Maybe the fans are making the most of it while they can.
