Swedish GP Malilla Saturday 5th July
TTT replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Doyle picking Gate 4 was asking for trouble. Zmarzlik won the LCQ by passing riders after not making it off 4. -

I backed him as well before the Peter Craven Memorial Meeting. Also got 50/1 on Doyle to win tonight so hopefully Bartosz and Kurtz will get in each others way lol. -

Kurtz will be World Champion this year imo. Zmarzlik's got the lead but he's been looking vulnerable in a couple of GP's this year. -

Yep, Erik got suckered in by the propaganda and now he's paying the price for it. Hope he gets back to full fitness but I doubt it'll ever happen tbh. -

Zmarzlik and Doyle are the winners from that draw. 2 x Gate 1's each as well as 3 inside Gates out of 5. -
William Hill are offering 50/1 on JASON DOYLE to win the SWEDISH GP tomorrow night. Best priced 8/1 elsewhere. Practice cancelled, Doyley has got 2 x Gate 1's and 3 Inside Gates out of 5 so he's defo the E/W value bet of the night.

I'm glad Ashton's come to the right decision. Got his whole life ahead of him and I wish him all the best for his future outside of the sport.
-
Agree, Hope all is well. R/R according to BSN and the Updates.
-
His kid is poorly and it's R/R according to the Updates site.

Value in CHRIS HOLDER and JOSH PICKERING on the OVERS tonight. Jack Holder isn't riding tonight because his kid is poorly according to the Updates.

Option A - £20+ a Meeting with big hitters. Two leagues with Poland flexing their muscles leading to British clubs putting out weakend teams on track something that Phil Morris and Fixed raced nights was supposed to stop. Promoters lose because attendances will be down, Fans lose because they're still having to pay the full amount when some big hitters aren't at the meeting. Option B - Say roughly £12-15 Option One big league that see's 5 Man Teams with riders like Lawson, Wright, Masters etc. riding as No.1's that see's full line-ups take to track on a weekly basis barring injury.
-
Over exaggerated list imo. Our teams would still feature riders like Masters, Lawson, Wright etc. Reason as to why they D/UP in Britain.
-
Most of them ride in the National League, Not Ekstraliga 1 & 2.
-
No tbh, Think we'd be able to work around that. Couple of riders may miss a couple of weekend meetings if it's one big league with race nights throughout the week / weekend but British clubs wouldn't have to be on edge on a weekly basis like they currently are. Not many riders who ride in the Premiership currently ride in the Ekstraliga 2 league now.
-
Last thing on the situation otherwise it'll just drag on lol and I don't want to clog up the thread. I just hope this nonsense ends in the winter and we have one big league with no GP/Ekstraliga riders. Fair enough British owners have made a number of never ending mistakes in the past but we've got to take into consideration that they're also trying to run a business albeit some of them poorly lol. It's difficult to run a business when you're ending up with R/R or below average guests due to Poland most of the time.

Emil in the play-offs last year, Think Tarasenko was also another one last year. Emil's wasn't because he was back riding for Torun, Doyle's was a rarety I'll admit that but Poland can't moan about injuries that occur in Britain when a vice versa effect happens in Poland which is what I mean about being hypercritical because it's the same playing field for both sides. If the owners truly cared about their riders then they wouldn't ask an injured rider for their money back because that's not what you call support, A support system like the SRBF would never have the same mentality and again highlights the double standards, Can't be painting themselves as saints by paying for riders treatment but then also demanding their money back if a rider can't physically ride for the rest of the season because it's just hypercritocal again, You either support someone in need or you don't. Lambert and Lindgren are riders with bags of experience on British tracks as I mentioned in my original post which is the problem I have with the Polish managers who moan about riders riding in Britain whilst trying to brainwash the riders and the fans into making them think that it's affecting their careers and performances by choosing to ride in Britain when it's the complete opposite, If it did effect them then they wouldn't be Zmarzlik's closest challenegers along with the Aussie riders and Bewley. Look at the riders who don't ride in Britain, Vaculik does nothing most of the time in the GP's outside of Prague, Kubera who looks like a superstar in the Ekstraliga but does nothing in the GP's, Madsen couldn't even hold down a place in the GP's and came up with excuses almost every GP round as to why he was getting found out. Piotr Baron is the latest example of brainwashing by trying to make out that Kvech had a brilliant meeting due to him not riding elsewhere when the reality is that Jan had a good meeting because the entire Zielona Gora 1-5 were muck on the day.

I love Poland as a country, It's the best Country in Europe imo but I just find the Speedway dictatorship hypercritical and a bit of a joke tbh. They complain about injuries and threaten to withdraw riders starting permissions for British racing when the fact is all of the worst injuries happen in Poland (Woffinden and Becker recent examples), I don't see stretchers being whelled out on a regular basis in Britain, Denmark or Sweden. The owners don't really care about rider welfare in Poland and they're more than happy to put the riders health and well being at risk by forcing them to ride in Ekstraliga meetings when not fit enough and then having the audacity to demand that signing on fee's be returned in full if they get injured (Rider welfare only matters to them when injuries occur outside of Poland) Polish Managers always complaining about riders riding in Britain when the fact is, It's actually beneficial to the riders to ride in Britain as it's not a coincidence that all of Zmarzlik's closest challengers in the GP series over the last couple of years either all ride in Britain or have bags of experience on British tracks, If it was the opposite and the Polish managers were in the right then why aren't riders like Kubera challenging Zmarzlik instead considering that they make Dominik look like a superstar on Polish tracks every week in the Ekstraliga.
-
Doesn't matter if Poland put Jan Kvech on a leash now tbh, King's Lynn's season is over anyway. Hopefully next year it's one big league and no big names as it'll be much better rather than clubs having to be on edge when the Polski's make up excuses 24/7 when the reality is that Poland are the ones who are at fault for almost everything.

Belle Vue v Ipswich Monday 30th June
TTT replied to Aries's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
It was game over as soon as BV got a 5 - 1 in Heat 2 tonight. Dan Thompson had rotten luck with his bikes all night that didn't help, Just one of those days at the office. Ipswich will still win the bonus point as BV will have a minimum of 4 passengers around Foxhall. -
