On Friday at the practice I told AJ I had put 350 on him and hoped I wouldn't be disappointed.. And now I'm definitely satisfied

There would be no say if a f*cking referee would not have given them 5-0 in the last heat in Bydgoszcz one week ago...

How much does the programme for Cardiff SGP cost? Or how much was it last year?

I wouldn't mind at all if the final results order was the same as in the positions draw

I made some calculations - results of rounds 7-14 that are the most likely to happen (with bonus points) and after round 14 it looks as following: 1. Wroclaw - 27 2. Tarnow - 23 3. Czestochowa - 21 4. Torun - 19 5. Rzeszow - 17 6. Bydgoszcz - 17 7. Leszno - 16 8. Rybnik - 0 Fortunately such calculations never work in 100% and there are some surprises every year so the real table after 14 round will vary a bit for sure. But so far Wroclaw seem to be the favourite to take the Champ title, Tarnow to be 2nd and a race for the bronze between Cz-wa, Torun, Rzeszow, Bydgoszcz.

And the table after 7 rounds (so before the return matches): place/team/matches/(wins,draws,defeats)/points 1. Unia Tarnów 7 (5 0 2) 10 2. WTS Wrocław 7 (5 0 2) 10 3. Włókniarz Częstochowa 7 (4 0 3) 8 4. Polonia Bydgoszcz 7 (4 0 3) 8 5. Unia Leszno 7 (4 0 3) 8 6. KS Toruń 7 (4 0 3) 8 7. Stal Rzeszów 7 (2 0 6) 4 8. RKM Rybnik 7 (0 0 7) 0 After 14 rounds the table is divided into 2 groups of 4 (places 1-4 and 5-8) and then each team will ride h&a with other 3 teams of its group. Points scored previously in the 14 rounds remain. So this year we do not have a classic play-off based on knock-out system.

Regarding Bydgoszcz v Rzeszow match... First of all the track was a bit flooded as it had rained quite heavily before the meeting. This and a really tough fight from both sides caused lots of falls. Two ref's decisions were very controversial - excluding PePe in 11 and AJ in 15. And Polonia have been just weak so far: - PePe's bikes are rubbish (no excuse for him). His performances in SGP make me sick - AJ's still not riding as good as it's expected.. Hell knows why - I think that it may be everything mixed: bikes, falls, himself - Sawina's also the shadow of himself last year (but I expected this..) Fortunately our young riders have been doing a really great job but if PePe and AJ don't wake up we'll be lost.. It may be a really hard task to qualify for the top Four N.Pedersen was damn good tonight (actually Holta too). I hate him but he did great job tonight tho' he should have been excluded in the heat 15.

Will take as much as I can load into my bags The only matter is how much of it will be left after evening at Rico's before leaving to Cardiff

Yes and what's more even these prices seemed to be too high as there were few people at the race-off and not so many as could be expected at the final.

Just come back home.. This GP isn't worth a long comment. It was as boring as my train journey back to home... It was bound to happen sooner or later..

Fully agree. Honestly, the most exciting moment of the day was destroying stadium gate 5 by some local fans and getting in almost one hour before the rest. And what's more - having a valid tickets to be sold later

Ekstraliga: Rzeszow - Wroclaw 16.00 Czestochowa - Bydgoszcz 17.00 Torun - Tarnow 19.00 Rybnik - Leszno postponed (tho' I don't know why..) 1 liga: Gniezno - Grudziadz 16.00 Ostrow - Zielona Gora 16.00 Gorzow - Krosno 16.00

State of his health is serious but stable and his life is not endangered now. Fans have started raising money for his rehabilitation and over there in Krosno they are gonna organise some friendly meetings to raise money as well.

This rumour is fortunately not true.

Sajfutdinov is amazingly great. He's only 16 but rides like guys who are much more (a few years) experienced than he is. You've seen this match so you know what I mean

Unfortunately - lots of riots at the stadium during the match Highest time to do something with all those f..kers as soon we may have such mess as in matches of Polish football leagues..

1st, 4th, 6th, 7th -> heat 21 2nd, 3rd, 5th, 8th -> heat 22

Sure, all the time I'll be hanging around with Rico & HenryW so we'll probably meet somewhere on Saturday.

He's not riding tonight and we still don't know if he'll be able to fight in the holy war againt Torun in Bydgoszcz tomorrow.

According to http://pogoda.onet.pl Thursday - 13-24, quite sunny Friday - 12-23, cloudy Saturday - 13-21, cloudy Sunday - 11-20, cloudy Summing up - no rain at all , quite warm about midday (over 20) but a bit cold in mornings/evenings and at nights (about 11).

Well, I'm afraid she just didn't know you could make her a princess of Mongolia instead

Yes. She works in Jonsson's team as his assistant so she goes to most GPs. Long story... You know, there are some girls in man's life you can talk really long about. Anyway, maybe some other time.

7 falls in Rybnik v Bydgoszcz. It was not a speedway track - it was just a sh!t! Thanks God no one has got injured.. The justice has been done and Polonia have won despite this horrible track. In the middle of the match Rybnik management protested and asked the referee to test if PePe was not drunk! Of course the result of breathalyser was 0,00 %.. I think they should have tested those f..kers who prepared that track!

Oblac narodziny dziecka (very informal) As far as I remember it's about 10 minutes by tram or 45-60 minutes by walk from the Old Square (Rynek). Tram. As all GPs - Friday. Sure. In Bydgoszcz it's always about between 15:00-17:00 so I guess it looks the same in Wroclaw. As all GPs - 19:00. Time of your arrival depends on where you have your tickets for. If you are to sit in the area with numbered seats you don't have to worry at all and can arrive even at 19:00. If not - you should come much earlier to get better (higher staged) seats. They are supposed to open gates at 17:00.. I'm gonna be around the stadium about 15:00. If I encounter any serious queues at the gates I will join people who are queuing. Unless there are many fans at the gates I'll sit under umbrella and drink some lagers observing the situation
