Well done Dan. He hasn’t let himself or GB down and had a solid night!

Might have been a better roll of the dice to throw in this team line up will cairns

Germany are flying!

Anyone know if the witches fan club are close enough to Chris Louis to allow some flags to be staged around the stadium prior to the meeting Thursday night? Was thinking of trying to get a decent size crowd flag and seeing if they would allow it to be put somewhere. Shame you can’t get the atmosphere like you do in Poland with blue, white and yellow smoke or big crowd TIFOs that could be laid on the stand that isn’t occupied to give a nice feel when you enter the stadium and for the TV. Can get 10m by 10m for a few hundred quid custom made!

Could of held it Friday night in the stadium and packed the meeting out for the juniors 😂

Bubba will be a spoiler for Saturday I’m sure, he beats parnitskyi and rides in a more challenging Ekstraliga instead of M.2… both riders are great and fun to watch!

Referee is from Ukraine 👀

Fernando Garcia always dreamt of being a speedway rider and when he was younger he lied to his parents telling them an English club gave him a contract. He had little money but packed his bags and flew to England, he messaged loads of teams asking for a contract. He had no vehicle or place to stay so first night slept in the airport, then next night in a hotel and then when his money was lower (funds for travel) he slept for a week in a train station. He got a message for a guest booking with Berwick and then asked if he had a bike so he said yes, although he didn’t so he found an old speedway rider and bought his bike for cheap, after that he then realised he didn’t have a way of getting the bike to the track so the old speedway riders dad sold him his old van. He completed his first guest booking scoring 3+1, but Berwick then said the injured rider was back to fitness so he wasn’t required. He went back to the old van to sleep and lived off just apples and some fruit from a garden for three days, his phone died and he thought he would call it a day and sell everything and go home telling his family it didn’t work out, when he went to a petrol station to charge his phone Berwick messaged him offering him a contract and with that he lived and rode for various teams for 6 years. The only reason he finished speedway in England was because of covid and he had to move back to Argentina.

You heard the story of that Garcia guy… Jesus what a story.

Argentina story of the riders how they had to buy everything, bikes, equipment, travel, hotels just to be there is pretty saddening. At least you would like to think a big crowd would have been a reward for all their efforts.

Polish Eurosport 2

Not showing because no teamGB?

No TNT tonight?

Fair play, all that I heard coming out of Poland was it was a sure thing for Kubera so I’ll see if anything comes out about why he didn’t get picked. Pretty sure you’ve been wrong before but I didn’t say you were talking cr@p 😂 each to their own.

Changes in Stal: Oskar Fajfer leaves for Rzeszów

The latest issue coming from the club is that they are still obviously in debt but are having loans from various parties offering them the money, the issue comes with the city council who need to act as a guarantor. They don’t need to give any more but are reluctant to accept the guarantor venture due to not yet being provided the debt plan from Stal, Stal have one month to provide all documentation for the loans so the city will accept the guarantor status, only then will Ekstraliga provide their 2026 licence to run.

Would be nice to see some good support with a great atmosphere ! And I don’t mean a hostile or provocative won, more like a party / celebration with flags, tops, scarfs and just showing your support to whatever team you support 👊🏻 What are you allowed in Hydroscan arena? ex. In Foxhall isn’t allowed anything noisy due to the houses?😂

That didn’t work out well!

Semi final pricing: Tier 1 ticket : £16 Tier 2 ticket : £10 Junior ticket : £5 Final pricing: Tier 1 ticket : £90 Tier 2 ticket : £50 Junior ticket : £18

Bewley is a beast on the air fence.

Leicester vs Ipswich gunna be a massive crowd after watching this! Genuinely think it will a good turn out Monday 👊🏻

Polish fans aren’t actually bothered with SoN or World Cup. They have the best league and travel everywhere for the SGP.

He moved on the tapes no?

Thought I saw on here someone said KH wasn’t riding?

Couldn’t have held it at a worse place… all the locals still in bed recovering from the weekend hangover of winning the title!
