racers and royals

I think I remember reading that Speedway in Japan was on tarmac tracks and because betting was such an important aspect of the sport there, the riders were kept under lock and key for hours prior to meetings.

Nsport TV dates have been announced round 1 Saturday April 12th Zielona Gora v Tarnow start time 2,30 pm uk time(I thought it would be evening) Sunday April 13th Wroclaw v Gorzow start time 3.30pm uk time. Leszno v Czestochowa 6 pm uk time NB if Zielona Gora match is postponed until the Sunday it will start at 3.30pm and be televised in place of the Wroclaw match Sunday April 13th other match Gdansk v Torun 3.30pm round 2 Sunday April 20th Gorzow v Leszno 6pm uk time Easter Monday April 21st Czestochowa v Zielona gora 3.30 pm uk time. Torun v Wroclaw 6pm uk time NB if Gorzow match is postponed until the Monday it will start at 3.30pm and be televised in place of the Czestochowa match Monday April 21st other match Tarnow v Gdansk 3.30pm

Taken a bit longer than originally thought but TV contract now in place to show 1 match each round on TVP sport from the Polska Liga Zuzlowa(old div 1 )

It has been announced that Channel 10 in Sweden will be showing the Polish extraleague in 2014. Michael Teurnberg will be one of the commentators-Ghostwalker can you get that channel ??

I received the same email-along with one from Ryanair changing both outward and inward flight times !

Looks like Adrian Miedzinski has got the nod for the Bydgoszcz GP wild-card

That's because all GP times have been bought forward for the parade -so that 1st race is just after the hour(Philip Rising mentioned it previously)

Think you are 100% correct as the programme has disappeared from their schedule for tomorrow.

Carry on looking-you might find more tracks we have never heard of such as Lonigo,Togliatti and Debrecen !!!!

You really are different class-you know all about speedway at far flung outposts in New Zealand and the USA-yet Martin Vaculik had escaped you and now you are telling us about Gorican a track which has held GP`s, an under 21 final and a round of the televised European championships last season. I suppose you have never heard of Jurica Pavlic or his father .

Can`t believe how cheap the Gorzow GP tickets are this season-cheapest are £20 and ours upper stand entry to 1st bend are only £22.50.

I have sent him a PM asking him to edit-thanks for posting.

Conversely if you had bet them as LESS you would be quids in-however as I stated in the rules the reserve replacements points scored count in the injured riders total.

What a load of rubbish-I shouldn`t think any federation supplies bikes for the riders to use in the SWC-some monetary help yes but that's about it.

correct and neither are sell-outs

Looks as if tickets are now on general sale.-3 bought

No way will a GP in Warsaw be a sell out-for 2 reasons 1 the Polish fans will bulk at the price of the tickets. 2 Polish fans do not actually travel to other tracks/towns in great numbers. You have only to see how ticket sales for Bydgoszcz are going - which are poor.

Martin Vaculik-unfamiliar name-have you been at the south pole for the last 5 years ??

I am really surprised you do not know that Martin Vaculik is Slovakian and they hold international meetings at the Zarnovica track.

Live on a stream as well-happy days !

Torun have publicly stated(it was on Sportowefakty however ! ) that when the existing contract ends they will be thinking twice about negotiating a renewal.

Hardly threatening the limit there

Bookies and limits -now that`s a surprise still big money can be won if you are shrewd.

After a month recuperating in the bookies 2nd home-Barbados it`s time to do battle with you Speedway punters.I`m so confident of taking everyone to the cleaners I`m pricing up early for the opening GP in New Zealand. There are several small changes to last years competition-in which Wheels-in-line won money plus a unique Tai Woffinden souvenir. RULES each contestant must place bets in all 12 rounds-in the event of having no money left they are out of the competition Each player starts with £300. MAXIMUM BET PER GP IS £200.minimum bet per GP is £20(or total balance if less than £20) minimum bet per rider is £10. If a rider is injured before a round starts then a bet is voided on that rider,or bets can be amended upto the meeting start time. If a rider starts a meeting but is injured and cannot continue THE BET STANDS but any points scored by the reserves count towards the injured riders score.If any rider is excluded for a starting offence the reserve points scored do not get added. To ensure fair play bets for the final round may be required to be PM`d to me instead of normal posting. A WARNING SPREAD BETTING CAN SERIOUSLY DAMAGE YOUR WEALTH. spreads for opening round New Zealand Saturday 5th April 2014 start time 18.00 local(think it`s 6am uk time) Ward 12 - 14 Holder 12 - 14 Woffinden 12 - 14 Hampel 11 - 13 Pedersen 11 - 13 NKI 11 - 13 Hancock 10 - 12 Zagar 7 - 9 Jonsson 7 - 9 Bjerre 7 - 9 Kasprzak 7 - 9 Lindgren 6 - 8 Harris 4 - 6 Batchelor 2 - 4 Smolinski 2 - 4 Bunyan 1 - 3 HOW TO PLAY One must bet on a rider to score MORE OR LESS than the spread-the HIGHER figure is taken for MORE bets and the LOWER for LESS bets-the mid between the two is what I expect them to score-and they add up to 138 which is the total points available in a GP EXAMPLE player one wants £50 Hancock MORE(than 12) and £50 Jonsson LESS(than 7) Hancock scores 15 so he wins -Hancock (15-12 x £50=£150 and Jonsson scores 6 so he wins (7-6 =1 x £50=£50. Conversely if Hancock had a mare and scored 6 and Jonsson scored 10 he would lose (12-6=6 x £50=£300 and (10-7=3x £50=£150.

I wouldn`t pretend to be an Aussie for an hour let alone a day !!!!
