Västervik (where I'm planning to be looks equally terrible)

He doesn't currently have a Polish team (which may have something to do with his unreliability)

Sun break. Racing now resuming

Amazingly there is a cross country train that goes DIRECT. It does take 9 hours though. And for a random Saturday (and Sunday return) it quotes a quite reasonable £112 (before railcard)

As far as I can tell the only available racenights are: Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. Take out: Sunday - Poland (Cook, Masters, Lawson, McDiarmid, Rushen, Cairns) Mon & Thur - Prem. Fri - between Poland and all the Friday Champ fixtures not easy Sat: doubt Jamie would want to have Oxford and Berwick running together Tues - no Swedish clashes, but four riders have Polish under 24 teams. However Polish under 24 league is all but done by end of July. So maybe a Tuesday in August?

No chance, easy win ... ... for the DRC 😉

Parnitsky out => one wildcard accounted for.

Brovst. He was originally named in their team.

For there to be a debate it requires both sides to be argued. Is there anyone out there to argue in favour of sprint races? Anyone?

Most programme's contain little of relevance to the visitors other than team profile so an insert with team profile of new visitors on the back makes sense.

From the latest Cheetah's Chronicle: Another Dane, Marcus Birkemose with paid twelve for Krosno Wolves, provided the most interesting story of the day. Back in 2022 18-year-old Marcus, already regarded as a difficult rider to handle, counted among the hottest prospects in speedway. That all came crashing down when he received a two year ban for smoking marijuana. He made a quiet return last season riding for Gdansk in the Polish third tier (and Slangerup back in Denmark). This year he’s moved to Krosno and has been scoring freely. From what I saw he hasn’t lost his ability to work the track, switching lines in an instant, the sort of rider it is a joy to watch. If his ‘Kevin the teenager’ years are well and truly behind him he could still go far in the sport. oops

Holder has score of 4, 6 and 8 away from home this year. He's not ridden there before. So I'd say that's unlikely.

And while we have King, Lawson, Wright and Harris they have Berntzon, Thorssell, Nilsson and Lahti. Currently the best Swedes under 30 are probably Filip Hjelmland (27) and Rasmus Karlsson (18). The latter is a real prospect but elsewhere talent is thin on the ground.

That includes bonus. Without bonus 1.167

What a truly appalling way to treat a 16 year old.
