well Jonesy i think the guest rider rule is ok as it is. Obviously its the teams own choice to put a U21 rider as guestrider, which could make them vulnerable to injuries on that rider. The teams knows the rules when they sign riders, Anyway i did miss that Hammarby also have a third U21 rider, Hyll so they should be ok. They could also use R/R for Dennis.

I think this years SWC proved that it does not make such a big difference and that it is perhaps not a good idea that have the host seeded direct to the final. The crowds weren't that big (possibly weather related) and i think despite no Croatia in the final allot of people would show up. basically its the same question as with the joker. Is not the SWC product exciting in its own? Do wee really need all this seeding and double points things? Why not try to have the best teams qualify and the best teams win without jokers and seeding? Who knows, it could be exciting.

Alex Edberg is injured and will miss the rest of the season. http://ekuriren.se/s...-drabbade-alex- For Hammarby this means that they will only have one guest rider available for the rest of the season since it is not allowed to change gust riders in the middle of the season. The exception is if a rider retires from speedway. It also means that Dennis Andersson is the sole U21 rider at Hammarby and if he cannot ride in a meeting Hammarby won't be able to field a complete team and i think that they will not be allowed to race. Edit, my mistake, Hammarby do have another U21 rider.

what about Gorican then? Surely it would be a better choice then Czech rep.?

Its soon Thursday again and here are the line ups for this weeks meetings: Allsvenskan Round 9 Griparna - Masarna Griparna Patrick Hougaard Anders Mellgren Kennet Hansen Robin Aspegren Miroslaw Jablonski John Lindman Daniel Davidsson Masarna Sebastian Aldén Anton Rosén Maksims Bogdanovs Eric Andersson Antonio Lindbäck Alexander Liljekvist Ted Hagansbo Rospiggarna - Ikaros Smederna Rospiggarna Andreas Jonsson Kim Nilsson Simon Gustafsson Timo Lahti Kauko Nieminen Henric Lindqvist Fredrik Engman Ikaros Smederna Magnus Zetterström Linus Eklöf Peter Karlsson Oliver Berntzon Kenni Larsen Henrik Karlsson Daniel Henderson Örnarna - FNC Gnistorna Örnarna Krzysztof Jablonski Victor Palovaara Ronnie Jamrozy Freddy Godlund Andrej Karpov Pontus Nilsson Christian Agö FNC Gnistorna Bartosz Zmarzlik Mathias Törnblom David Ruud Jesper Sögaard Mikael Max Tim Gudmundsson Sebastian Carlsson Live scores: http://www.svemo.se/sv/Grenar/Speedway/ Current standings: http://www.svemo.se/sv/Grenar/Speedway/Allsvenskan/Serietabell/ Race cards; Griparna - Masarna: http://www.mediafire...a36azys8r5gr6m1 Rospiggarna - Ikaros Smederna: http://www.mediafire...7w5qjv82qnszpvq Örnarna - FNC Gnistorna: http://www.mediafire...dok51z00dfyaob7

If the Race and final ends up in Czech Rep, the question is which of GB, Poland and DK that won't host a semi-final.

Elitserien Round 10 Elit Vetlanda - Valsarna Elit Vetlanda Leon Madsen Martin Vaculik Emil Sayfutdinov Thomas H Jonasson Jason Crump David Ruud Jacob Thorssell Valsarna Grigory Laguta Artem Laguta Tomas Gapinski Robert Kosiecha Daniel Nermark Daniel Gunnestad Robin Thörnkvist Gunnestad replaces Palovaara who have signed for Dackarna. Gunnetsad is, since the start of this season, riding on a Swedish license. Which means he can ride as the mandatory U21 rider and also as a guestrider. Valsarna are still in a very tough situation financially but intend to finish the season.

Troy Batchelor A do or die meeting Vargarna, they have to win if they want to avoid being even further adrift from safe grounds. Scott Nicholls was brought in from Dackarna in the transfer window.

personally i prefer the "cross-word type" of racecard, with the riders listed to the left (vertically) and the heat numbers listed at the top (horizontally), with the heat's riders marked by squares.

Oh but it is something wrong with it. All teams cannot use it. Only the teams that are at least 6p behind. Its the same with the tactical substitute. The team that is leading cannot use it. Why should the loosing team be rewarded for being 6p (or more) behind? Some say its because the want "excitement", but the joker and ts are not exiting they are a joke. let the best team win by letting all riders ride their heats. I think speedway would benefit from it. I have seen a few meetings in Sweden this year where the "weaker" team was winning until the loosing started using T-subs, in the second half of the meeting and, thanks to the ts rule, managed to turn ita round and win. Not a fair rule in anyway, without the ts the teams who lost would have won.

agreed, it was the same in the WRC for several years when the leader of the championship and or leader of the rally were forced to be the first car on the road. Usually this is very disadvantageous but the FIA have come to their senses (finnally) to this season and gone back to qualifying+reversed starting order, Also some car racing series used to put extra weight in the cars that won a race.

no it isn't since there isn't one. only a few guest books but not a real forum like this one.

No the only cheating is the joker rule, double points if anything is cheating. The only way it could work (in SWC) is to allow all teams to use it once regardless of score and also neither it or tactial substitute should be allowed in heats 17-20.

Raining in Målilla.

looked like it worked out pretty good for the danes. Imo what Britain needs is youth speedway and speedway schools, but since there is no(?) 80cc tracks and most (?) teams are owned by promoters it probably isn't likely.

Gollob seems to have been inspired by Harris. Correct decision by ref. on the latest overlook of the track it looked like a pretty good sized crowd.

Some facts about the track.

the poor/unreliable weather the past weeks have probably scared away some.

R.a.r. see my reply on the previous page. In addition to that they will have the annual "enkronasmatch". Which means that all sponsors and regular persons who have signed up for it. will pay 1kr for each spectator that attends The meeting on Tuesday. Fingers crossed for sunny weather and a large crowd.

current SMHI.se weather forecast fore tomorrow says showers during the early afternoon and then sunny or partially cloudy during the rest of the day and the evening. current Yr.no forecast says sunny or partially cloudy all day except between 13.00 and 14.00 local time.

Smederna have signed Charlie Gjedde as a replacement for Rasmus Eklöf. Rasmus is injured and is not expected to be back until at the end of the season. http://ekuriren.se/sport/speedway/1.1489639-smederna-varvar-gjedde

just a heads up for those who are going to Målilla this week. As mentioned before there have been allot of rain in the area. With flooding and flushed away roads as a result This means that currently the road (road 40) between Eksjö-Mariannelund-Vimmerby have very limited accessibility (flooding). and the road between Mariannelund and Hultsfred (road 129) are closed until further notice. see this map for current info.

Viktor Palovaara leaves Valsarna for Dackarna. Valsarna will replace him with Daniel Gunnestad. Gunnestad rides on a Swedish license since May this year. It seems though that Valsarna will be able to continue the season. The other riders have managed to come to agreements with Valsarna and they say that they will be able to full fill the season. http://nwt.se/sport/article1135587.ece

no no no, Oliver is the rider to cheer for.

Unfortunately the area around målills have been Hit by heavy rains. The following link shows the Situation in Mariannelund 36km north of Målilla. http://www.svt.se/nyheter/sverige/mariannelund-oversvammat-av-skyfall More info: http://m.sverigesradio.se/artikel/5184183?programId=86
