Vojthas 947 Posted January 2, 2021 Author #2 Share Posted January 2, 2021 I really love it every year, when our guru @Sindo creates the annual discussion thread and changes an author to me. And then I think I have some memories washed. Sindo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vojthas 947 Posted January 13, 2021 Author #5 Share Posted January 13, 2021 With Junior Europeans, Senior Europeans, Junior Worlds being held within just 21 days it's gonna be very irrepresentative competition, as the top Junior athletes are also strong points of their Senior teams - especially that the strongest Seniors will go for Tokyo 2020 and the Senior Europeans would be a good opportuinty for the others, especially in relays, where oftenly we can see some Junior names.

Vojthas 947 Posted January 26, 2021 Author #10 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I've received an info from Janusz Peciak, UIPM Sports Director - Istambul and Cancun were also bidding. What I know there was an interest from Hungary, but on a price of resigning from the World Cup, and from Poland, but it wouldn't be in a big city, which is a marketing and PR "condition" of UIPM in latest days.
