I'd have to double check this but if i remember correctly, whilst the court case initially seemed a great victory for pubs who carried streaming without a Sky subscription Sky found a way to stop them. They did this by pointing out that their company logo which is on screen at all times was copyrighted and therefore not allowed to be broadcast without their permission.

Danish Speedway On Tv
manchesterpaul replied to uk_martin's topic in International World of Speedway
It's the same as last year, although don't necessary rely on your tv graphics lol. I haven't got time to check right now but it runs one of two ways ( a ) The team finishing top has 4 race points added in the final, second 3, third 2, fourth 0. OR ( b ) The team finishing top in the final has 4 league points added to their league points total with second team 3, third team 2, last team 0. Due to my awful memory i'd have to go Googling/researching and can't do that right now, but if nobody chirps up in the meantime i'll come back later and update. It's a bit odd in that they race all season in a traditional league format of two riders per team in a heat and then in the final it's a single rider from each team per race. From the official site; "Danish Metal Speedway League is Denmark's top division in speedway sport. The tournament consists of seven teams, all of which meet each other at home and abroad - a total of 42 matches and a final stage with the 4 best teams in which the team leading after the first 42 races. As a new feature in 2012 introduced a super finale with the participation of the 4 best teams in the league, they meet at the club that is best for all met each other once at home and once at home. The run-points taken with the super finals which awarded points that count in the overall standings - Super Final run on Wednesday 12 September" -

I wouldn't have thought there was any contact even at first view? Excluded but i'm not convinced, he certainly cut him off but must have a long exhaust pipe lol. If Freddie's Swedish mate had done his swearing in Sweden in Swedish no tv viewers would have been offended They think it's all over it is now?

I noticed that during the last race in particular, we got a partial zoom in of head and shoulders and only a glimpse of part of the rider behind. NIce win by Bjarne there and back up by Karpov trying to match the first race in Sweden -

I'll probably lose track of the meeting at some point as i've got a delivery due smack in the middle of both meetings and with doing a host of other things i can't use my computers screen recorder. The Swedish match is ok as it's on tv and i can pause or rewind. I would have opted for the replays you listed tomorrow but not going to be at home at both of those times ouch. Looks like they stuggling to keep Graphics man standing or sitting up and as he keeps slumping over the video unit he's hitting all sorts of buttons and sliders causing all sorts to pop-up on our screens mid-race lol. -

Don't know if anyone is around for this with it clashing with the 2nd leg of the Swedish semi-final? LEAGUE STANDINGS http://speedway-league.com/stillingen/ -
Didn't it go bust through lack or readers, some of whom through the progress of time are no longer with us! So not sure if there are going to be enough people around to cover the cost of doing so. Got to admit i used to love the Speedway Mail and found it less establishment than the Speedway Star at the time. I loved both of the magazines.

Are there still not South African accents abounding in the England dressing room? I don't really follow or watch cricket and whilst waiting for a parcel delivery a few years ago i turned on an England test match and found it hilarious that were were multiple non-English accents during the interviews. Players whose names i had only seen in headlines and the media were NOT English! Mind you i think the biggest culprits are the USA with their tennis, gymnasts and other sporting stars. -
Phew! i thought you were in line for the "you are the one millionth person to open a discussion on tv presenters" and i didn't open it lol. Didn't realize it was stadium ones, i'll follow this one now

Just touching on that particular point, it is their job to promote the programmes that they show, and they do indeed heavily promote most of their sports with trailers and pre and post event coverage on Sky Sports News. Speedway has always seemed to be an invisible dirty kept secret to their promotional team lol. Yet if has frequently occupied a slot in their main sports live sports channel during the prime time viewing hours which makes it a very strange state of affairs. It's like the impenetrable fortress that the newspaper sports editors had even when speedway was drawing great crowds and outdrawing their local football teams in some places, speedway had practically zero coverage and it was very hard to find results. Don't know if the results issue has changed as i haven't bought a printed newspaper for many years.

Someone has asked him on his Facebook page whether he is riding at Esbjerg or Malilla and he replied Maililla. -

Lol so sorry Ghostwalker, i was barely lightly reading the threads and doing several things at once. I totally had a mental blank there not actually seeing/reading his name despite it STARING ME IN THE FACE geez!!!!!. Regards his name variations.... He's still registered with different combinations of his name with different leagues. His own social media pages will refer to him by more than one variation! I saw multiple examples of that earlier in the season Speedway and sports media use a combination of names, including multiple versions within a website or media source. Hopefully come next season he'll have a uniform usage. In the meantime i tend to use Mikkel Bech Jensen to cover all bases lol. -
Lol looks like we thought to look at the attendance at the same time. Although according to Svemo you've counted someone twice! lol At least we getting to see all the great racing from last week during the breaks (on Premier Sports anyway). Incidentally, 4,544 at Vetland. Should be a good tv match tomorrow, after 12 heats Elit opened up a 12 point lead. Although don't want it to stretch too far ahead.
