Brilliant news Torun v Leszno here i come !!

I should imagine the BSPA finances teamGB-the prize money fund is listed somewhere on the FIM website-although there would be a shortfall the BSPA would have to cover.As for the 2nd point-there is only one winner IMG/BSI.

Hi Mama am i right in thinking that the extraleague haven`t decided yet about the May 1st fixtures ?

Torun speedway have informed me that no decision has been made yet about there match against Leszno and it could be a few weeks before any decision.

It looks as if following a meeting yesterday in 2012 the extraleague will have 10 teams 1 GP rider per team 4 polish riders minimum points limit reduced from 44 to 41

As Victor Meldrew would say "I don`t believe it " The GP was to be followed by Torun v Leszno. At least i haven`t bought the flights yet so can come back on the Sunday-lets hope they decide to hold the matches on Sunday evening.

Some times i`ve found Wroclaw 13.20 13.45 14.27 Leszno 14.55 15.11 15.59 coming back Leszno 23.50 Wroclaw 01.20

Easyjet from Gatwick out sat am back sun pm is £53 return at moment if anyone thinking of going.

I`m waiting on the hope that Wizzair get sensible !! Going to fly to Poznan-surely the prices must come down.

Take plenty of Danish Krones with you-you will need them ! flying out Sat-also from Gatwick.we always catch the s-train to Nordhavn,the road opposite the station leads straight to Parken stadium.Last year we found a steak house Rio Bravo that serves food until 4am.Have always enjoyed the Copenhagen GP

Wizzair have also stopped the very convienient saturday am flights to Poland-did several GP`S last season with just one night away which i can`t do now.

Rzeszow were discussed on the Czestochowa v Gdansk thread some weeks ago-the lady boss has a few bob !! I`m hoping to see one of their home matches next season as Ryanair has a late flight on Sunday evening to Stansted which leaves at 9.10pm-so if the match started at 4pm it would be over in time.

In this weeks "star" it says that Poland is re-introducing a points limit with cma`s over the three divisions.Min 34pts max 44pts(top6 riders in team) 1 when did they last have a points limit ? 2 How do they convert averages from div1 to extraleague for example 3 will this weaken the line-ups as compared to last season ?

I also would like to congratulate Tony Olsson on ensuring the riders had the tracks to RACE on.as for Gothenburg i thought the track was the best it`s been-i understand the crew from Dackarna were responsible and if the track hadn`t been in such good nick the meeting wouldn`t have gone ahead with the rain that fell. As for Prague-a great city to go to but in my view they need to add a metre to the inside of the track all the way round(same as Ipswich did) and more dirt would do the trick.Roll-on 2011,did 8 this season going for the lot next

She might be about to try again

Is she rich ? the names these fans were saying if true she will need a few bob.

Come on boys-last race of the season

Was that Jerzy Szczakiel with the suits ??(looked like the Polish Mafia )

Torun would be my guess

Gdansk had Drabik`s engine checked last week-wonder if they will do the same this week !!!

And Emil!!

Was chatting to some fans of newly promoted Rzeszow last night and apparently the boss man of the club has plenty of dosh and they are planning to be contenders rather than also- rans next season-and are looking to make a couple of big signings to back up Chris Harris and Lee Richardson.

Always makes me laugh when Holta does his interviews in English-surely he`s learnt Polish by now !! Edit beat me to it by a minute
