Some of you may be aware of or even subscribe to ESS Play. This is a legal streaming service provided by the Swedish clubs. It currently offers an international service priced at SEK 189 (about £15-6) which allows subscribers to watch all Swedish matches on demand. Sadly live coverage is not currently available. This is changing. I've received an email from ESS today telling me that viewers outside Sweden and Poland are now being transferred to Fanseat. This service will be much cheaper at 9.99 Euros a month and will also offer live access to all Elitserien matches in addition to on-demand. They also offer French league racing, currently on-demand. I'm trying to find out if subscribers are automatically transferred between services or we have to cancel and re-register for the new deal. I can use my ESS Play login to access Fanseat but when I tried to buy the service it came up with "Not available". Maybe they think I'm in Sweden. I'm awaiting their response. I tried logging in to my ESS account with success. For those interested in the service it offers full 1080 HD pictures, single camera though for all but the match televised here on Premier Sports. Commentary is in Swedish but English graphics are promised. You can access the coverage on PC/Laptop or on IOS or Andoid using an app. Details here: https://www.fanseat.com/speedway Confusingly it refers to British matches. I can't see Eurosport allowing that to British subscribers! Rob

My You Tube link was down briefly but our Latvian friend is now also active. http://spedway.ucoz.lv/ If no speedway showing click on the bottom right shaded box and select NSport.

Reminds me, I must get my copy of this week's Star autographed......

I felt sympathy for that poor laptop ;-)

With luck - and common sense, now a part of speedway history - the one that all keep well clear of. I don't need to be a disabled person myself, as I sadly am, to know how despicable these c rimes were. No excuses. His speedway skill's irrelevant Thank goodness he's gone.

Thanks. My memory is obviously longer than I thought.

The Worralls have both raced in Poland's League 2 in recent years with reasonable success. I think it was for Rawicz. They missed this season though.

Personally, I prefer speedway.

If the SoN was designed to stop Poland constantly winning the SWC can we now have it back to stop the Russians? Please?

Thanks to all for their efforts. Bet it's dry tomorrow morning....

That's the only sensible way. Now, what if a rider is hurt in a crash caused by track conditions in a race that was subsequently voided?

First World Team Cup I attended was Wembley ion 1973, staged in a thunderstorm......

Once you go past heat 14 you can only get a fair result after heat 21 because at no point inbetween will all seven teams have raced the same number of heats.

So, they're going to heat 21. What happens if we get a downpour that finishes it between those two points and Poland are ahead just because they're had one more ride?

To watch Poole win and boast about it. Sad really.

Oh, quite right. He's spent so long following Poole that he expects the rest of speedway to conform to their 'standards'.

I'm certainly not going to back Shovlar up, (unless we're near a cliff edge ;-) ) but you can criticise something without having to walk away from it. I'm interested in seeing what happens, but this isn't speedway. It's just a fight to get to the point where it can be abandoned. Never a happy situation where the result is all that matters, not how they're gained.

Speedway in the rain on a track like this is a waste of time. Can we get to heat 14? Will we still be awake?

Wonder if there is any significance in the commentary team referring to the World Pairs more than once, given that references to the World Cup in 2021 have been made in other areas recently? Are changes coming?

Is Bewley on Tai's bikes again? A wasted opportunity there in heat 1.
