  1. if people really want to know then ask the riders themselves , lesser riders could always do with sponsorship but equally some could do with advice cause they dont always know how to use it
  2. as Ive said before its not a secret its more a case of a private matter , if a rider wants to say then fine but I feel its not right for other people to divulge riders earnings , I wouldnt like people talking about what I earn .
  3. I have a bit of sympathy for them as 5 are injured and injuries cant be helped but the other 2 going on holiday is just not on and both should be fined ,I dont care if its a re aranged fixture , they have all winter to go on holiday , just another example of riders taking the pee
  4. i think the one of the best signings could be musielak , really came on this year and surely wont be staying with rybnik, be interesting to see who takes a gamble on nicki pedersen and it is a gamble
  5. hope so leszno is my team and I dont like either holders
  6. I just looked and it does say on the polish site that i read it that jack holder and Jarek hampel to leszno but I think they mean Kurtz
  7. did I read jack holder was replacing Zengota at leszno or did I dream it ?
  8. Why is there nobody in the seats ? Is it more expensive to sit there ?
  9. Considering riders are supposed to be healthy eating athlletes these days there isnt half a lot of sudden illnesses especially on shared event days
  10. Im sorry to say this but riders are just motivated by greed now , even at NL level they are demanding stupid money and dont ride when they dont get it
  11. they could always get a job and live in the real world , I was having this Conversation with Skornicki on the way to birmingham the other night and he said about 40 British meetings was enough and even better If it were set days like Monday and Thursday as there are plenty of open meetings at the weekends in Europe if they choose ,
  12. a crowd attracts a crowd attracts a crowd , put an empty bag on the street and people just walk past it , put the same bag with 20 people standing round it and people will stop to take a look , its at that point where the bag (speedway) needs to keep them there
  13. For me tomasz is one of my all time favourite riders ,a real racer, YouTube has some amazing examples of his finest rides but also he is more than any other the rider the one that put Poland on the world stage and made it the force it is today , it is heartbreaking what has happened to him and I hope that in time a breakthrough is made and tomasz can get back to a sort of normal life
  14. but Poland are putting out a good product and giving their fans what they want , many of us Brits went to gdansk v Torun on Sunday ,as a meeting it was crap, no passing ,result sorted by heat 8 but it was a must to be there , the atmosphere was something else and as a social event it ticked the boxes and did it make me want to go back ? Hell yes , we deserve our crowds ,we created this mess
  15. im suprised he hasnt made a statement laying the blame for the state of speedway firmly at my door then, doesnt matter to me anyway cause next season I will be as a fan officially withholding my services so I will get s ban
  16. Well in all The Torun GPs Ive been to I have never felt so ripped off and angry as I do now ,despite the SGP site advertising seats available there were non apart from VIP tickets so I thought why not so paid around £220 for two VIP seats (£150 more than standard tickets ) ,got to stadium to find out they are only VIP seats and you dont get the parking , goodie bag and food and drink , for that you has to pay another £60 each, so basically just paid for better seat, got into our seats only to find they are restricted view and by that I mean couldnt see the forth bend at all , we moved into some other seats but had our view obscewerd by the tv camera man and to rub it really in you could see seats available on back straight and bends , I am fuming 😡update on this , we writ an email to bsi with pictures explaining the situation we had , they replied back saying basically not their problem its torun problem but they would take this up with Torun on our behalf , we have heard twice off bsi saying not their fault but we have not even had a reply off Torun and niether have bsi , to me an offer of a couple of free tickets to a GP from bsi should of been a must as a good will gesture even if not their fault but obviously customers dont seem to matter to them , we are as of this moment forwarding our complaint to Torun again , I am very dissapointed in both Torun and bsi
  17. and it is an experience , under 90mph and your in the way anything else on Friday ?
  18. its 100% not Horton , graham isnt giving anything away , Im not the only one who has the heard the rumours even though Im not sure I believe them but we will see next week
  19. i guess we may find out next week but maybe not
  20. While I dont like guests I dont agree woffinden should be allowed to do one meeting , he basically blows british speedway out then when he has no other meetings and his GP hopes are all but dead he wants British speedway, I didnt agree with it last year and I dont agree now, no Im not a fan of woffinden and I think he is being disrespectful to British fans who want to see him but only when it suits his agenda
  21. maybe but you witnessed the fiasco of the solid block tyre , the riders will kick up a stink to anything that changes the ride of the bike in some cases justifiably , if you were to fit the 80s Carlisle tyre to the modern bike nobody would get round the first bend , the bikes need to change with the tyre but thats not going to happen , at the end of the day the riders are not interested in getting a wet meeting on if it means they will have to change the way the bike rides which is what a different tyre would do ,mitas or whoever could bring out a wet tyre but I just think it will end in the same farce as most ideas like silencers, tyres etc , one rider cant win a race then they all gang up and next thing you know the use is suspended
