racers and royals

There are a load of Saturday reserve dates in the offical fixture list for the Saturday TV matches-http://speedwayekstraliga.pl/zalaczniki/Terminarz%20DMP%202013.pdf

Congratulations to " chestnut " on this appointment.Should think the riders will be pleased as he is universally liked,and is more likely to listen to them than the previous incumbent.

I`m not an expert on Polish tv as i watch all the polish league on streams-however i do believe a Cyfra plus card would cover league and GP`s This might help http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_in_Poland

Easter Monday and as TVP haven`t got a contract i wouldn`t think so.

Phil Morris would do it i`m sure and would do a good job.

Not hard to find he`s always advertising in the speedway star

How the Aussie press have reported it http://www.qt.com.au/news/drunk-speedway-star-hightails-it-from-cops/1755067/

No you haven`t missed it-not announced yet.

Really good article on Dave in Backtrack mag issue 48-he was very honest in recounting the severe lows he experienced when he packed up racing.

Dave Mullett is ducking and diving in rural Kent. Sold his sheep several years ago now,has a livery yard on his land and also rears baby chicks and sells them as point of lay chickens.

According to a report in the Polish media Bahia Blanca`s licence has been suspended until an inspection from a FIM delegate can be made.

Stadium way industrial estate is sited on the old Tilehurst stadium site in Reading

Outside of Britain Per Jonsson is so revered in Torun that the road leading to the new stadium is called Per jonsson way.

Reading borough council have recently asked for nominations for future road names-someone suggested Curtis(geoff) Pyeatt(Denny) Michanek (Anders) and Jonsson(Per). It set me wondering if there are any roads named after Speedway riders in the UK, Is there Fundin avenue in Norwich? Mauger close in Manchester ? Briggs Lane in Swindon etc etc

You are wrong about the championship -normally one only live match shown to a world wide audience

I have seen the crash (via Polish speedway site)but didnt want to link it here the tyre fence appeared to be part of the track.His front wheel clipped the back wheel of the rider in front picked up speed alarmingly and was in the fence in a split second.

Tractor size tyres as a safety fence at the place of the high speed crash.Questions need to be asked about track safety .Did the track have to do anything differently for the world u21 meetings ?

I can see Emil having a good season-won`t be far away in the final reckoning.

Hi Pawel do you know if Cyfra are any more successful in stopping the streamers than others(TVP) lets hope not !

However there is NO such thing as TVP turbo

I suggest you re-read it. TVN turbo is not TVP it is part of the new Cyfra company. Both TVP and Polsat lost out in the bidding contest.Polsat are not happy as this Sportowefakty article shows(google translation) Polsat Sport representatives are surprised platform offers choice of NC +, which for the next three seasons to show matches ENEA Extraleague. They claim that their offer was better and more beneficial. On Thursday Speedway Ekstraliga partners decided that the television rights of ENEA Extraliga meetings for three years in the hands of NC + platform. Surprised choice of this offer are representatives Polsat Sport, who argue that their offer was more attractive quality and financially. More information on the conditions under which the rights acquired NC + and how it will be promoted transmissions wrote on Thursday. Under what conditions Polsat Sport wanted to buy the rights to broadcast? - For three seasons we offered Speedway Ekstralidze 9,000,000 U.S. Dollars for full rights. All our vans are equipped with 12 cameras and all transmissions to execute, are in HD. Matches were to be shown on Polsat Sport, Polsat Sport Extra, Polsat Sport News. These three stations were to be displayed matches live. We planned on-air retransmission open Polsat and Polsat second But keep in mind that Polsat Sport News is the television for some time open to Multiplexie - SportoweFakty.pl told Paul Wojcik, deputy director of sports editors Polsat Sport. NC + acquired the television rights to the ENEA Ekstraliga! (Updated) One of the last pre-season puzzle was solved. We already know that television shows over the next three years ENEA Ekstraliga matches. More Żużel87824 January, 15:25 | Platform NC + Live will broadcast two games each queue. As it turns out, Polsat Sport offer more meetings. - We were talking about a minimum of 3 matches, and during discussions with representatives asked Ekstraliga up to 4 games. This, however, would require the allocation of transmission for three days - said Wojcik. Editorial Representative Polsat Sport offer the choice is surprised NC +. - The evaluation of the two bids leave all concerned. It seems to me, however, that in no way it lagged in terms of quality and financially from NC +. Do not even mention the promotion of meetings open to the air station, because for us it is a normal thing. When we realize MMA, football or boxing, it's always the right to promote the antenna open. I hope that the authorities Ekstraliga explain why, in the first contest rejected our offer under the pretext of obtaining more money, and now have decided to offer the choice of an inferior quality - ended Paul Wojcik.

Roll on Easter Monday !!!! We certainly will know which matches are televised well in advance-however as my friend Brandonbee stated it`s all in the hands of the streamers.one great thing about the TVP coverage was that the video of a particular match was available to watch within hours of the match finishing-ideal when not able to watch the match live-slightly concerned that the new contract holders might not offer the same video service.

Speedway riders of differing abilities ?
