Another year where Zmarzlik has no competition and wins by a country mile. Viewing figures are down as nobody is interested in watching a concession. Time for the FIM to stop being woke and allow Emil and Artem into the GP series.

Zmarzlik's titles are similar to Lance Armstrong's Tour De France victories. There is a massive asterisk next to them. No Laguta or Emil = Fake World Title

Why didn't Wroclaw sign a replacement for Woffinden? Zagar is still a free agent.

If Emil gets through Sunday, he will definitely be at Ipswich. Emil is a man of integrity and commitment. Him and Laguta are cut from the same cloth.

Genuine question for Lynn fans. Would you have Laguta back for next year?

If Doyle and Emil are both out, I am sure the BSPA will grant Ipswich special dispensation.

@stevebrum Please provide an explanation for Lindgren. Birmingham's decision to sign Lindgren ahead of Laguta looks like the biggest mistake in the history of British Speedway.

Don't think Jack did anything wrong. Emil should have shut off.

Artem Laguta would have been a proper number 1.

Signing Lindgren has proven to be a disaster.

You are going to lose more money. Please stop gambling.

Lindgren disappoints again. He should be winning heat 15. If Birmingham had signed Laguta instead of Lindgren, they would be challenging for the play-offs.

Lindgren has been a complete and utter disaster. Birmingham should have paid Artem Laguta the money. Artem is a World Champion. Freddie is a Bridesmaid. @stevebrum - Why is Freddie so poor?

Women should be on a minimum average of 1. A 4 point average is scandalous.

Decision to call this meeting off looks like a good one. It is raining in Peterborough.

There is a clip circulating online of the autograph sessions. A fan records his experience with Zmarzlik, who doesn't make any eye contact with fans. I have to say it is shocking. Fans pay good money for these experiences. https://x.com/SocialSpeedway/status/1812410067792089355?t=1i1eYprZRLCCZ8Cj1elw4g&s=19

This isn't just a speedway issue. A lot of music bands have had to cancel tours because of dwindling ticket sales. Most working people now have mortgages at 4-5% and this is killing their disposable income. Another issue is that most Polish people in the UK live in London or the South East (Peterborough). Manchester is simply too far.

As somebody who is a finance professional, I would point out that your tactic of cutting prices at the last minute would kill ticket sales for next year. People would wait until the end to buy tickets. It would also damage trust between organisers and loyal fans. My opinion is that the issue wasn't the ticket prices. The issue is the product. If you add in Team Russia with Emil & Artem, I suspect the rest of the grandstand would have been sold out.

Emil and Artem have a 100% winning record in the Speedway of Nations. Them not riding has made this event more interesting. It's a bit like Djokovic not playing Wimbledon.

Russia still hold the most titles (3).

Russia were robbed. Artem and Emil would have won this.

I really hate 1 race as a final. It should be a best of 3.

Why do teams have to choose gates 1 and 3 or 2 and 4? Why can't you choose gates 1 and 4 or gates 2 and 3?

Feel for the Poland fans. Spent a lot of money to watch this shambles.
