Google translation of Torun statement on Sportowefakty "As explained bosses Unibaksu , the team has not been able to match on Sunday due to problems with the composition . The decision to resign from the Supervisory Board has taken off the club. Due to the refusal of the show in Zielona Gora , the title of Team Champion Polish team won Stelmet Falubaz . Toruń explained his decision not to join the match injury Tomasz Gollob . The conference appeared Slawomir Kryjom manager and president Matthew Kurzawski . As explained to the media , the decision to resign from the start has been made ​​only in place in Zielona Gora. Toruń even on a Sunday morning they hoped that Tomasz Gollob will be able to ride in this meeting . - We wanted the game was spaced at equal strength, that it was a decent show. Tomasz Gollob No you could not count on it - explained . Stelmet bosses Falubaz heard on the site proposal to final second leg was postponed. Toruń proposed to play it for two weeks - October 6 . Capable of driving would have been if Gollob said . When it became clear that the two sides did not reach an agreement, the decision not to join the match seemed Supervisory Board , led by its chairman , James Nadachewiczem . According to Slawomir Kryjoma , contrary to what the media reported , the club has not challenged the decision of the same players . They said for that, since they are one team , you have to surrender a top-down decision . Representatives Unibaksu did not want to answer questions about possible sanctions . Also explained that there are as yet no signs of the Roman Karkosik . There were voices because that would have to withdraw from further financing of the club. Provided that none of the Supervisory Board has not contacted on Sunday with Robert Dowhan .

The days will be taken and the decision whether Unibaksu fans who chose to coach the Green Mountains , you will receive a refund of all money. - I hope that the fans do not turn away from the club - said Matthew Kurzawski . The press conference summed up in words, that because of the injury Tomasz Gollob , Toruń " had no way worthy of being driven away match in Zielona Gora" . According to representatives of Unibaksu , withdrawal from the start it was a better option than to join the meeting in the composition of the heavily weakened " Can`t really imagine that with gollob lying in a Stockholm hospital they were expecting him to ride !!!

The mods have taken an interest in this thread-deleating some words and a link-so can I categorically state that this meeting is not available to watch in the UK and the USA and Canada. I will be on my way back from Poland whilst this meeting takes place so I couldn`t have seen it anyway even if it was on and it`s absolutely no use in sending a PM to brandonbee48 between 5pm to 5.30 pm uk time because he will be at home in the states cursing that he can`t watch it. Soccer live in Poland is always big on Sunday`s and I hope it doesn`t rain heavily in the Tarnow region as small rivers could easily develop.

not that I`m going to win-but I`m in torun from the Friday so will need to post before then.

4 TV only said 2 at end but it was 4-Engman took all 5 rides.

Sorry Arson fire but the rules are that the reserve points scored for Gollob count for him in the case of injury. Leaderboard after Stockholm Wheels-in-line £1560 Waihekeaces £1295 Arson fire £740 So all to play for in the lucky last-will post spreads in about 7 days to give you plenty of thinking time.

Hampel 125

That's because the bookie has the spreads spot on and they don`t know what to bet on

Doubt it-for those in the know- on TV- is code for "dodgy internet stream "
