World U21 team final Outrup Saturday August 18th

Final video

Pila have been given a walkover in the match against Krakow- Krakow are relegated to div 2

Lublin rider Oskar Bober has been suspended for 2 months for being under the influence of alcohol before the match against Gniezno.

Just watched Rospiggarna v lejonen - 5983 there and 3325 watched Dackarna v Smederna

Confirmed next Tuesday August 28th is Vetlanda v Vastervik and Indianerna v Smederna- the TV match is still to be decided- let`s hope it`s not from Vetlanda !!!!

Because this year they changed the format and took out the 2nd reserves race(heat 11) and changed to 2 nominated races at the end- better VFM for the punters. In my opinion it has worked well.As they use a rolling average in Sweden- decent riders end up at reserve for a couple of matches and if they go well can end up with 4/5 rides.

Pawlicki is injured- missed the SEC on Saturday after a crash in Sweden 7 days ago

Ghosty has said previosly that for the last few weeks Masarna have been allowed to run with weaker teams than allowed- and the opposition teams will also not ride their strongest line-up.

The R and R definitive guide to the Polish league final regular season round on Sunday and how it will effect the play-offs and promotion and relegation. Extraleague fixtures( 1st match score in brackets) Zielona Gora v Tarnow (Ta 47 ZG 43) Czestochowa v Grudziadz (Gr 45 Cz 45) Leszno v Wroclaw(Wr 45 Le 45) Torun v Gorzow (Go 54 To 35) 1 v 4 in play-off semi so Leszno v Czestochowa or Wroclaw and 2 v 3 so Gorzow v Wroclaw or Czestochowa Zielona Gora must beat Tarnow and take the bonus(win by 5 or more) to avoid automatic relegation. If they do Tarnow are relegated and Zielona Gora will meet the Nice Polska league play-off runners up in the promotion/relegation play-off( the Extraleague team will not lose over 2 legs !!!!) If Zielona Gora don`t collect the 3 points then Tarnow could overtake Grudziadz and push Grudziadz into the relegation play-off. Nice Polska league 1 Lublin P 13 PTS 21 B 5 total 26 2 Gniezno P13 PTS 19 B 3 total 22 3 Rybnik P 13 PTS 16 B 4 total 20 4 Daugavpils P13 PTS 15 B 4 total 19 5 Gdansk P 12 PTS 12 B 2 total 14 6 Lodz P 12 PTS 10 B 2 total 12 7 Pila P 13 PTS 6 B 1 total 7 8 Krakow P 13 PTS 3 B 0 total 3 Catch up match 25th August lodz v Gdansk(GD 50 LO 40) final round 24th August Daugavpils v Gniezno(Gn 57 Da 33) 26th August Pila v Rybnik(Ry 57 Pi 33) 26th August Lodz v Lublin( Lu 45 Lo 45) 26th August Krakow v Gdansk I cannot find any info about when Krakow are meeting Pila which was called off in July because Krakow couldn`t field a team - as this is an important match in the relegation stakes i find it a bit strange that it hasn`t a date !!!! Maybe Pila will be awarded the points ? 1 v 4 in play-offs so Lublin v ANO and 2 v 3 ANO V ANO bottom team relegated- 2nd from bottom meets the runners up in DIV 2 play-off in relegation/promotion play-off.
