Bound to be on VK.

Rode well tonight.

Doesnt help with Zupinski v Emil and Kolodziej. The Polish league need to even the teams out from haves and have bits. Big clubs have a huge advantage, like football premier league. In a league of 8 it needs to be more even.

Great ride by Pred there.

Couple of decent heats but so one sided. Not a good thing in what is meant to be the best league. Might have best riders but if it’s not close it’s boring. Looking at Sunday fixtures all the duffers fall on same weekend.

Two predicable meetings today. To keep it close we have to hope one of the Torun riders gates otherwise it’s one way traffic. They even have the luck with the rerun when the ref should have pulled Pawlicki roller back.

Then loses to a reserve!

KK beating Zmarzlik shows KK is starting to get a bit of form back.

Yes it is. You want it?

Would have thought this was flouting Germanys covid regulations big time.

They were but had to do ten days quarantine before the event, which of course is impossible.

So it looks like Dan Bewley won’t be able to compete if Uk citizens are banned from Germany. A real shame as he had a great first round and was in the running to win it. Devalues the competition when this happens.

If that is the case he has not chance of competing at Gustrow as German govt demand Brits isolate for 10 days on entry. Unless he misses his flight to U.K……….

Sorry Doners Poole were in another league to Plymouth last night. The scores only got slightly more respectable due to Plymouth having Bjarne and Lawson off 1 and 3 in 13 and 15 on a very slick track when the meeting was all done and dusted. Not sure Crump would score as many as Lawson. Plymouth need to shift out Goret and bring in Doyle to be competitive! Gary May will definately be on it though and changes will happen when they can. All the top sides in the Championship will win at Plymouth this season. But you you retain Gary M for next season then I am sure your team will become a force to be respected.

My first visit to St Boniface and a nice, albeit little setup they have there. Nice friendly people and a decent crowd inside, considering England were playing. Track is a bit on the tiny side making passing almost a bit impossible. Think there were only three passes after the second bend all night, one where Hume passed Bowtell, another where S hole in forced his way passed Bowtell, who took offence of the move after the race ended and one almighty clanger from the ref when Hume passed Ruddick on the run in to the line after Ruddick lifted. He won by half a bike minimum and I thought by a bikes length, yet the ref awarded 3rd to Ruddick, to the dismay of Poole and Plymouth fans across from the start line who had all filled in their programs. A real shocker of a call. Track was very slick in the second half of the meeting and in heats 13 and 15 Plymouth had their best 2 riders on one and three to pull back the scoreline, but really they were never in it. Poole dominance all the way. Crump was in attendance and defended Schleins move, though it was a hard one. Crump said it’s how to pass when it’s tough conditions. For Plymouth, Bjarne was excellent. On it and class. Lawson backed him up but had one fall when chasing and in third. The rest need to up their game and time must be against Goret and Ruml. Bowtell tried but met his match. Zach Cook rode really well I thought. For Poole the strength in depth was too much. Worrall was the stand out, backed by Schlein, King and Neilsen. Kellerher won his first race in the U.K. Cook tried but struggled in the small confines. Hume deserved a further paid 2 points which the ref took away. Second leg a formality so it looks like Eastbourne in the next round.

If there’s space at the stadium I will park it there. Thanks for the tips. Aiming for 5.30 pm.

Ok where do we all park? Dies the look like much parking at the stadium. Help please.

Coming down for this. I believe if we can keep it down to ten points or less we should go through. Both our two Aussies will probably not like it very much. At least Ben Cook has seen racing there spannering for his brother!

Laguta villian to hero! Disagree with commentator. Vaculik or Zmarzlik had to go.

Will Michelsen’s wheel over the line come and bite them at the death?

Lublin could have thrown this away. Some shocking decisions by their riders. Laguta shoved out his team mate then gave away his position. Only themselves to blame if they lose.

Shocking riding from Buckowski. Failed to cover the outside and Wozniak said thanks!

That’s what the sport is all about. Fabulous entertainment. One of the best of the year.

What a meeting. Makes up for the dross served up at Gdansk.

Freddie really should be out.The tapes dragged up his tyre.
