Ipswich will be. They need to beat Northampton home OR away to be in the cup final.

@stewmac This rule is the reason I stated Leszno as relegation candidates and I stand by that. All teams with a full squad IMO would be: Play offs: Wroclaw Torun Lublin Falubaz Play down: Leszno Grudzaindz Stal Czestochowa That is also the league order I would guess. Especially now Anders will be out almost all of the season.

Back to speedway - I do love Bewley haha he is brilliant as a character and a rider!

Because you can build multiple houses on an area the size of a speedway stadium in London and sell them for millions too. I know loads of people who have BSN, season ticket at Portman Rd and go to every Witches meeting at home… what’s your point?

Pointless excuses. Everywhere on the country you can say people could spend the money elsewhere. It’s simple that Manchester just doesn’t have good speedway support. If you like something you make the time or money to go. If people prioritise other sports then it’s exactly what I said, poor support.

Yeah but we can’t sell out 10,000, Belle Vue can’t get half full 3,500 or whatever the mini stadium holds without a temp stand 😂 Ipswich are the only club who actually gets a good crowd.

Belle Vue are piss poor supported really, the stadium half empty is slightly embarrassing as such a massive city, and the fact even the SGP doesn’t sell out. Best track deffo in the wrong location in the country!

Anders Thomsen also with new information has broken L5 in the vertebra. It will be a longer recover than planned, no surgery is required though.

Hold that thought! One injury to Pawlicki and they will drop dramatically. I hope they don’t as I like Leszno, would be nice to see them really push on.

The cost is the most expensive ticket in all of the league, they are charging 120 złoty when other clubs charge 45 złoty. A big difference for the Polish fans, Falubaz fan club have decided to attend Thursdays meeting but to wear all black in protest, Grudziądz are also potentially joining the protest.

Bad news for Stal. Anders Thomsen and Pollestad crashed together today in pardubice, both were rushed to hospital, Anders has broken three ribs and Pollestad suffered minor injuries but will be okay.

We should do a poll on this forum asking how many on this forum actually go week in and week out supporting their club, I bet not as many as people think. And before people even think about talking about our tracks and quality, it’s the same people who moan about Polish tracks too. Maybe it’s because we are a nation full or moaners and negativity and instead of always having something bad to say… just get your arse to the nearest track and support your club.

They need him after losing Ratajczak!

Paluch could have been the difference genuinely but Wroclaw rode well. Gorzow done well, need to hold their heads high.

My man Pollestad 👊🏻 what a ride!

Wroclaw are strong at home. They aren’t anything special away from home on any track. They have a strong team but Gorzow has kept up with them. And Stal were written off for relegation this year so it shows how weak Wroclaw are away from home.

That’s disrespectful. Pollestad and Bubba are two of the best up and coming youngsters in the sport. They are riding the track better than some of the seniors. Nothing is making it 50/50 apart from the riders.

Shows you don’t need all superstars in a team, sometimes give the young talent a chance. Come on stal 👊🏻

I thought Kurtz could have gone down for all four back!

Why?

👀😁😉 but long way to go!

Paluch will not line up for Stal tonight. A wrist injury has been problematic all day and it’s a 80% chance he will not start. A youth rider is coming tonight to be prepared to replace Paluch.

You just confirmed my point. Russia wouldn’t have finished 3rd behind Denmark. Charity because they are not as good as Russia, and politics chose to let them in due to the war instead of Russia.

I hope Ukraine gets knocked out and this charity of having them in purely due to politics can stop. I don’t really care about the war when I’m watching speedway, I’d rather Russian be in it, whether that upsets people or not.

Best race of the year so far without a doubt 😉 😂
