Pressure of being captain? Quite a few outgoing personalities in the team now. Wouldn't be the first rider whose form has dipped with it. 

in theory though if there was one big league the fixture list issue would be sorted out, so shouldnt be a problem (although im sure theyll balls it up)

I find his Poole form baffling tbh thought he would have stepped up and continued his improvement this season, best ive seen him ride tonight so maybe he will now replicate that form for you?

Unfortunately I doubt any Polish rider would want to commit to racing in the UK given the uncertainty of a fixture going ahead and the strung out fixture list where some clubs can go two or three weeks without a meeting. These Poles are successful because of the track time they get on the continent and since Brexit it is too much of a hassle to move equipment back and forth to the UK.  It would be good to have a Polish squad tour the UK but I doubt that would happen either.

Another really good meeting at the NSS. Bewley out testing machinery after the meeting, he obviously wasn't quite at his best tonight, but hats off to Max Fricke who was excellent all night. Nice to see Zischke being competitive and his heat 14 exploits must give him some more confidence. Given the choice, I think I'd prefer Leicester in the semis, but our reserves (and Blodorn away)  are too much of a long tail this season.

If the Polish U24 league is no more next year will they be looking to come to the UK to ride?.
