Interesting heat 8 coming up.

HERESY!

But spare a thought for those outside of the UK! (ok and Sweden too)

No offence to the chap who tried his best last year but It should be said that Dave Goddard is a very good speedway commentator. He instantly picks up on the various nuances in a race and the reasons for them.

Would expect a heat advantage for Dackarna in heat 3.

Jonas Davidsson needed that, albeit the reserve race, he's been the target of much criticism due to his poor form. Not least from his own management.

Hee Hee Gee Whizz what you doing Lindgren stay out on the track!

Not saying this out of my anarchistic nature but carry on regardless i'm sure they'll be let off with just a caution lol. Why is it down to police permission and not local council permission? Surely Sweden isn't a severe police state!

Rain has certainly plagued the sport far and wide this season.

Hey Ghostwalker it's an excellent service thanks for it. my question should have read do you still update/maintain it. People will often complain about something speedily and in numbers but rarely take the effort to express thanks and praise. I have to use my main tv for Premier Sports and the speedway as it's not available on SkyGo. No problem though i'll use SkyGo for Man U and once the speedway is over go to the interactive that lets me see the other 7 CL matches lol. I so wish my mum had gone out with an octopus, maybe i would have been born with eight pairs of eyes and ears. I'd be very popular with the ladies if.........ok i'll self censor that thought lol.

Also it did forecast that it would be dry during the evening. Do you still have your Google Earth page for Swedish tracks? If so have you thought about adding weather and specifically radar links for each track? There are several very good free radar services available to link to. Oh yeah without wishing to flog you to death overworking, whilst you are at it add local media links too lol....ok i too lazy to compile them myself lol. Nooooo none we are waiting for you to tell us lol. Awww this delay means i'm not going to be able to give 100% concentration to Man United in the Champions League. Ok Dave there was too long a gap in the commentary there you need to start singing or something to entertain us! Second thought update Don't as it may have a sudden and immediate detrimental effect on your viewing figures.

Wow well rainsodden track on first sighting. Maybe during this season riders should have had a spare ice speedway bike with the spikes at hand. Lol lol spoken like a true speedway fan lol.

Very welcome and thank you for the thanks lol. Wiziwig has another link but that will be in Polish too. Wiziwig is usually very good for speedway streams. Fortunately i'm in the UK so can subscribe to Premier Sports and watch in on the biggggggg tv screen. Yeah last time i checked it at lunchtime it was forecast but nothing too threatening for the meeting as such? So no 96702 then? Are they broadcasting something else now?

Regarding tonight's match i've found "Dackarnas solution is to run the rider replacement for Dudek - all drivers except Darcy Ward share the Pole's heat". And for Piraterna "Linus Sundstrom, who was the Deciding Factor in Målilla last week, has Incurred a concussion and will not run. Probably choose pirates Running riders for him, with the result That Greg Hancock and Chris Holder can not run his race."

Valsarna have just accepted their relegation to the Allsvenskan On the bright side it leaves them on a firmer financial footing and keeps the club in business.

Yeah indeed ditto regarding updating the MiniMax racecard too. I was dubious about Tai starting and even checked his Twitter account (i'm not a Twitter or Facebook person lol). UPDATE Several sources now confirming the new line-ups including the Dackarna official site. In case of any further late changes or team reshuffles the racecard wil be amended further this afternoon, so download when you think best. It's not a speedway thing to moan about as football teams only declare their sides an hour or so before a game. Also, it is due to a batch of injuries and even the Swedish press is referring to 'chaos' regards the line-ups. AVAILABLE NOW MiniMax Racecards - Swedish Play Offs Semi-Final 2nd Leg, PIRATERNA Vs.DACKARNA (WEDNESDAY) http://speedway.manc.../racecards.html Normally in speedway, in contrast to other sports, a close first leg would result in a romp and big win for the home team in the second leg. However, i was reading the other day a rider saying that Dackarna ride their opponents track as good as their own. Coupling that with the way away sides have had great results in the Elitserien this season and it's fingers crossed that we do get a good match.

It may be this article i referred to in a post in a different thread back in June... A lot of pertinent points in this translated article http://www.nyheterna...slaar-till-igen With a gravedigger thrift pulls speedwayens sovereignty back and do the most to bury the origin and the real with the speedway.Country resort and permanent speedway stadiums. The latest is that the World Cup organizer, BSI, is set to the new National Stadium in Stockholm. Cheating and mutbygget Friends Arena in Solna. Somehow it feels like BSI has come to the right ...Up in the capital, cheering, of course, so-called experts and other speedway fans. And with the new organization, SSI, sitting Board and rubs his hands. We remember very well the proposed SSI came with a few months ago, to arrange league matches at Friends Arena. Even fyrlagsmatcher. Law Dackarna, Vetlanda and the pirates would have to run their home games in Stockholm.Talk about stupid proposal and that rural clubs are fighting against stupidity. clubs said no, and could say no to this proposal from SSI. But the BSI can not clubs or SSI do so much. And SSI will NOT do anything but stand with hat in hand and welcomes Paul Bellamy, Managing Director of BSI Speedway. SSI is on the same wavelength as BSI - the speedway to run in the big cities.Well, the Premier League and Division 1 may safely provinces get to keep. There's not much money to squeeze out. I personally think that both SSI and BSI are on a short track. It is clear that there will be GP races in Sweden next year in Stockholm and Gothenburg. Målilla get a pat on the shoulder and thanks for the interest. What the genuine speedway audience thinks rubbishs both SSI and BSI in. The big cities draws VIP fans, but certainly not the large audience that BSI fantasize about. 13 000 saw the GP race in Gothenburg for a few weeks ago, despite the good weather. As many looks GP races in Målilla. Guess which stadium is by far the highest mood? Any facility that does not leave a single spectator unmoved? A half empty or fulsatt Ullevi stadium in Målilla? And how will it feel with 15,000 at Friends Arena - which enroll 50,000 people? desolate is probably only the first name. I'm pretty sure that Målilla only need to sit out the next year before the BSI realizes that Booth is incredibly empty without G & B Arena in the GP series. It becomes Gothenburg receiving step back. Now, if we dare to be sure of anything when BSI or SSI involved.

Put the racecard online for Wednesday's second semi-final. Rider replacement has been reported for Linus Sundstrom and one presumes the same for Patryk Dudek. Only seeing one report indicating he will ride! "Dackarna with damaged Patryk Dudek and Tai Woffinden and pirates lacks Linus Sundstrom." but most reports say he is still in hospital. Really should go without saying but a reminder that it may be worth waiting as long as you are able to in case of any late changes or team reshuffles which will be amended to the racecard.

It's been confirmed that as expected Piraterna are indeed running rider replacement for Linus Sundstrom.

Heat 15 nothing to write home about. Off to watch the Champions League myself, deciding whether to watch all 8 matches at once courtesy of Sky's interactive service or two matches with Goal Alert switching to any matches when goals are scored. The modern man is truly spoilt when it comes to watching sports. We've had quite a few multi-screen speedway matches recently too with our international fare. Incidentally, i'll put tomorrow's racecard online in a few hours once i've had a good scour of local news and sports feeds in Sweden, Poland and Timbuctoo! If as may be likely there are late changes during tomorrow i will of course amend the card.

Guess Elit Vetlanda chose the path of least resistance!

Not even if Lindback and/or Andersen begin to ride to their potential to join the scoring Iversen, Holta and Kylmakorpi? Mind you taking another look at the Vetlanda line-up it does seem a tall order lol. Crump, Sayfutdinov, Hampel with Madsen and Ruud scoring well too!

Oh Antonio 0 and 0 Thankfully in the Elitserien we don't have teams trailing on the day able to go for double points and heavily affect the two-leg score. Left him in his wake again in heat 7.

That was my point lol as in hopefully it might go down to the later heats, we shall see. What do you reckon of the crowd size Ghostwalker, has the rain potential affected it or is it a case of it what it is?.

OK Madsen showed them all you can pass tonight so no excuses The previous regular season result of this fixture was an 8 point home win for Elit Vetland 49-41 in May.
