ShanoXtra Posted Sunday at 03:26 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 03:26 PM The whole team are off, the former president broke this club, hence why they almost folded at the end of the season. Vaculik already signed for Lublin next season so he probably doesn’t care anymore and Anders has been actively looking for a new club as well. It’s a sad situation for the club. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShanoXtra Posted Sunday at 03:47 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 03:47 PM Brief story : The former president of last year for Stal was taking money from the club for his private business ventures. The fans were protesting last year for him to walk but he never did, he damaged the club with simple thing with the fans like changing the 5-1 celebration music and the traditional Kevlar colour (they looked more like Lublin last season). The fans and the president didn’t get on, after these protests and the end of last season he decided to fire Wozniak who was still contracted another year which annoyed the fans. He finally got kicked out the club after an internal audit was ordered by the league and 12 million was found taken and this is where the club were almost ended. Another president came in and the set up a ‘go fund me’ page (which I contributed to) and also ex and current riders auctioned off equipment and belonging etc to make sure the club could find the money to continue this season. Lebiediew was bought as a last gasp from the former president to try and show he was spending the club money and investing. At the time of uncertainty whether Gorzów would continue Miśkowiak fast made a decision to abandon the club and run to GKM, this is why Gorzów fans do not like him. Stal Gorzów raised enough money to continue from various sponsors and ventures and now have good money, the only problem they face is the league put a ban on them spending money due to the audit and issues that arose last year. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shockster Posted Sunday at 04:05 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 04:05 PM Yes injuries do play a part for sure. Trouble is that Stal only have 6 riders (5 really today) before injuries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble is that Stal only have 6 riders (5 really today) before injuries Yeah, they only really have Vaculik, Thomsen, Lebiediew and Paluch. Fajfer is far from riding like his usual self. Packing the remaining places with their under 24 Polish riders doesn’t cut it in Ekstraliga. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering they have the strongest team so meetings are usually a non event in terms of a contest too I think Lublin is a pretty average track.

This forum enjoys slating UK tracks (apart from Belle Vue) and the racing we watch. Yet Poland doesn’t always show great racing either or great track prep. Lublin have prepped for a dry track and like the manager of Toruń said in the break, the inside will be fast until they water the outside which they haven’t done as they are winning. If Ipswich do this everyone moans about the sport and how it’s dying in UK yet Poland does it and it’s ok. British just love a moan I guess.

I think even if they prepped it differently it wouldn’t make a difference, teams in the last couple of seasons are turning up there and have mentally lost before a wheels been turned.

This Toruń team was built this year to win. It’s the strongest team they’ve had in years and if anyone will beat Lublin it will be Toruń, I think an outside working as well would had made this very close.
