I get the comments about polish clubs shielding their assets but that remark falls short when nobody on here I’ve seen has yet to mention basso took part in the danish individual championship as well where he rode on the 7th August?

Bomber at 2 is an interesting choice...

Stars declared Basso at 2 and Harris is now guesting for him so he has to ride at 2 also

Prediction: Belle Vue 52 King's Lynn 38

Phil Morris explanation regarding rider replacement and guests is just putting a plaster over the real problems with speedway in this country. If the rules had allowed for signings for injured riders things might be different, but no, the powers that be went for the broad brush approach. His excuses for where the sport is because of rider shortage is not acceptable and since when have those in charge given a second thought to Joe Public. He is talking as much horse s..t as the BSPL.

On his return visits this season hes proving it was the right decision to release him.

Basso would never have scored what Harris has that's why it's close rules are rules only in speedway 

[Hawk127]

Unfortunately the Polish scene knocks spots off the UK presentation and any rider worth his salt would rather ride in front of a packed crowd with an atmosphere that is second to none compared to the sparse speedway support that turns up at a UK stadia. Those that ride in Poland and frequent UK teams/tracks are simply topping up the pension. If you are a regular who watches on Kergel then you will understand the phrase chalk and cheese when watch weekend racing from Poland versus what is served up from the UK Clubs. The UK broadcaster cannot ever offer a comparable form of entertainment no matter who are the commentators and if they had any sense they would quietly part the sport in some dark corner and leave it to BSN to show the best bits from the lower leagues.

No lol, but I think he is the best manager in speedway 👍

I think of Kurtz was injured again, he would have beaten us.

Many other sports above speedway in this country for TV as for Poland speedway is number 1 above soccer

Speedway in Poland isn't as big as football..

It is very big in certain towns and cities, but nationally not on the level of football overall..

Volleyball, Basketball and Handball are all very well supported Polish sports too..

Polish Speedway does well as it doesn't run it's leagues in the ridiculous way that the UK does, hence thousands of fans can emotionally, and tribally, invest into their team, and sponsors and TV support it knowing it is bonus fide sports championship that all teams race for..

Some excellent entertainment on offer again at the NSS😎

We will never be like Poland. And we shouldn’t even try being. Of course we want to be like them but when old Doris next to you complains to the stewards because you cursed a few bad words and shouted loudly you don’t stand a chance

Started great racing wise for 2 heats and midday way thru got a bit lively but that was by no means a classic.

Whilst our last encounter with the Stars was no classic there were 6 decent races after bend 3 lap 1 and an additional 3 passes on bend 3 lap one, or so the markings of my programme indicate. If the Stars gate it should entertain me though not the gate’n’go fans at home. The lack of a close score will also put them off no matter how many exciting (to me) races there are. Not one for the modern purist I’m afraid. 

In the end a much better match than expected - KL had a good go ultimately not strong enough and last 3 heats saw the Aces run away with it a bit which belies the effort the Stars made - Hope you enjoyed it!

Just think what the score would have been if Basso had been riding and not Harris and the bad start after 4 heats

Just think what the score could,not would have been as you put it,had Klindt been riding or Musielak decided to return.All if's,but's and maybe's but the score is what it is and that's a fact.
