  1. Also see this article: https://www.aftonbladet.se/sportbladet/a/7lP3yV/lar-kanna-varldens-markligaste-klubbnamn
  2. Njudung is another local geographical name. It's the name of one of the small medieval provinces which together was designated små land (Småland) and one of this provinces was Njudung,. https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Njudung https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folkland https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Småland#History Skeppare is a commander of a smaller ship, but in this case people working on the shipyard that once existed in Västervik.
  3. Dackarna is most certainly not ducks. Dackarna is named after south Swedish rebel Nils Dacke and Dackarna was his followers. Mas|ar(na) is a nickname for people living in the province named Dalarna. Vetlanda and Västervik do have other names as well. Vetlanda is/was also known as Njudungarna and Västervik is also known as Skepparna.
  4. Rospigg is someone living in the the geographical region called Roslagen. A pigg is an old word for wasp (wasp's sting).
  5. Clearly Thursdays are not that good to schedule meetings on due to rider commitments in Poland on Fridays making these riders unavailable They don't have much choice this season due to shortened season but for future seasons perhaps trying to go back to Tuesdays would be a better idea.
  6. I think Chugunov has dual citizenship/licenses but uses Russian nationality/license in Sweden at least.
  7. Highlights https://www.svt.se/sport/speedway/smederna-fick-kampa-i-toppmotet-med-lejonen
  8. Anton is generation 4 in the Jansson speedway family; Joel->Bo->Jimmy->Anton. Manfred is not related to Magnus in any way. Magnus' son Kevin is a football goalie in division 1. Anton and Manfred are dominating the Swedish Youth series this year. 500 cc is totally different thing but for sure they are talented. IIRC the plan for Anton was to combine 85 cc with 250 cc this season but I don't think he has been doing any 250 cc racing so far this season.
  9. The Allsvenskan meeting between Griparna and Team Rapid has been can due to rain. This means that Johannes Stark will ride for Smederna instead.
  10. Highlights from Indianerna - Smederna https://www.eskilstunasmederna.se/play/video/126358?provider=staylive
  11. Some interesting results tonight. Masarna defeats Rospiggarna and Piraterna manages a draw at home against Västervik.
  12. The draw for the JSM-final is also available now. https://www.svemo.se/Nyheter/Speedway/JuniorSM-finaliSpeedway2021
  13. teams are up, Smederna will have to use Max Belsing as nr 6 since Kling and Stark are busy with the Allsvenskan meeting between Team Rapid and Griparna.

  15. The decline has been obvious for at least 10 years and while everyone is aware of it, not many are interested in doing anything about it. As for anyone else then PHB the answer is no.
  16. Current top 5 in averages https://imgur.com/a/PbMKE79 https://www.svemo.se/Sporter/Speedway/Resultat/BAUHAUSLigan/forarsnitttotalt/
