racers and royals

Smederna expecting a big crowd tonight- the 1st 2000 fans through the gates are being given a flag to wave.

Rumours suggest that Nicki Pedersen is leaving Zielona Gora and they are signing Antonio Lindback and Jan Kvech for 2020.

Zmarzlik stays with Vetlanda for 2020.

Not sure if there is any substance to this Sportowefakty article( Google translation) Slag. What changes are PGE Ekstraliga preparing in the running table? Stars are supposed to be harder During the final of PGE Ekstraliga in Wrocław, the most important people in Polish speedway met and discussed. Gentlemen activists, he was in this group among others honorary president of PZM Andrzej Witkowski, head of Betard Sparta Wrocław Andrzej Rusko or long-term union activist Andrzej Grodzki talked about the urgent need to introduce statutory changes. Once, due to the shrinking market of Polish juniors. Two, due to financial demands of speedway riders basically freezing the transfer market. The conclusion that was drawn was that it was necessary to quickly introduce a regulation that would turn everything upside down. The plan is to make one of two changes before opening the transfer window in November. It is about enabling a foreign junior to start under numbers 6, 7 (or 14, 15). The second option is to cut the PGE Ekstraliga teams to six players. The first change would be a response to the shrinking market of Polish youth. There is practically nothing to choose from. Speed Car Motor Lublin has a strong two, but others, including Fogo Unia Leszno (junior age Bartosz Smektała) may be in trouble. In addition, at PZM they are thinking about a wider opening of the gate for young and talented foreign players (the door was opened as a reserve provision). We hear from one of the important activists that there are no Swedes in the IMŚJ and only one Briton. These countries need an impulse, perhaps also Polish money, to enable speedway riders to develop from there. When it comes to reducing the composition, a possible solution is to reduce the number of seniors. This procedure is mainly about saving costs. Now it is so that many players make a detour around Poland, collect offers, and then go to their current employer with a request for a raise. The change would cause eight players to hit the market who would have to fight for a job and not be able to make demands. By October 15, the clubs are to send letters to PZM with ideas for changes. If the majority is in favor of turning the rules upside down, then it can be expected that one of the two options described by us will be implemented.

Do you mean " speedway of nations" ?

For anyone going - Bydgoszcz are putting on an individual meeting the International Bydgoszcz Championship for the Cup of the Mayor of Bydgoszcz on Sunday October 6th at 2.30pm No riders announced yet.

They could only get away with it in Poland !!!! video of Kacper Woryna asking the way to the Slaski stadium https://sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/845027/zuzel-kacper-woryna-na-motocyklu-zuzlowym-na-ulicach-miasta-jak-dojechac-na-stad

Weather looks ok for tonight- the punters might have to wrap up as it`s going to be cold.

They hadn`t got clearance from the Polish authorities for him to ride- and they got into big trouble over it !!!!

The Polish clubs invest thousands of Zlotys in their junior programme- the kids come straight from school and jump on the clubs supplied equipment. There are rider tests every year to pass so that they are allowed to ride competitively in the junior competition programme - where the riders have plenty of meetings.

Hi Eddie, yes fine thank you. Have you been to Nagyhalasz yet ? Zarnovica ? 1st meeting of the season for me on Saturday, but with my Swedish subscription and Poland i must watch about 12 matches a week !!

Thanks- i see that Eklof has had to step down to get Aspgren in the side within the average limit.

Does anyone know if Arthur Sweby was related to Colin Sweby( father perhaps ?)

Good decision then !

Anyone in the Poole area who can let us know if the right decision was made to postpone today ?

Leszno v Wroclaw Sunday September 22nd

He has been cr&p recently lol Have you added any tracks to your list this year ?

Hard to tell- but i wouldn’t necessarily think so- they have been so good because Smektala and Kubera at 6/7 have been so dominant for a couple of seasons now. Next season is a different matter altogether as Smektala and Drabik to name 2 have to move into the top 5.

Tomorrow`s final 1st leg teams- live on Freesports 6pm ESKILSTUNA SMEDERNA 1 MJJ 2Lebedevs F Lindgren 4 Chugunov 5 Prem Pawlicki 6 Miedzinski 7 Eklof DACKARNA 1 Janowski 2 Piotr Pawlicki 3 Berntzon 4 Thorssell 5 Dudek 6 Jakobsen 7 Gomolski

Of course i know what you meant. They are the best league in the world and at the moment are doing very nicely thank you. I seem to remember they did try it some years ago but quickly dropped it.

Wrong British Speedway does nothing better than Poland, they have a limit- U21 riders at 6/7 and 14/15, along with the 3 foreigners max in the top 5 rule. one thing they should bin is the ridiculous U23 no 8 rider.
