Great race from Bomber & Rico in heat 6. :)

 

Agree GW that Nicki could've helped his teammate, just left Richardson to it.

Tv commentator here in the UK saying their scorecard had Okoniewski penned in for heat 5 in blue. However, not according to my home made scorecard which, as per swedish tv captions had Aspgren riding.

 

I hope the british channel not going the way of Sky when it comes to not having correct line-ups and stats.

 

I'll go with the swedish tv graphics and my own scorecard for now and presume it was indeed Aspgren who rode. I hadn't taken notice of the rider number or his leathers.

Okom were supposed to have ridden in heat 5 but was replaced by Aspgren.

It's an absolute delight to see such a healthy attendance and, as the camera shots show, made up of all ages. Can you ever imagine taking a toddler in a push chair to a football match!. Old and very young all able to relax in a large crowd.

 

Hope it's a similar good summer for the sport all over Europe.

You are quite right. It is always something i notice about the crowds in Sweden and Poland.The families. Young kids and parents. Just don't see it to the same extent in Britain. I think the seating and facilities in the Polish stadiums may have something to do with enticing the women and children along. The Swedish stadiums are more rustic, but still plenty of seating, and of course here we have the picnic tables over by the gate. Both these leagues are obviously doing something right.

You do actually see families and young and old at speedway in Britain, i was referring that you don't see them in such quantity at football matches.

 

You're right about the picnics but (in England) sitting on wet grass and eating soggy sandwiches isn't the greatest pleasure lol. Plus with the rain really teeming down your beer gets watered down and you never get to drink it, or your coffee as the cup keeps filling up with rainwater.

Oooops! sorry about that, it's rare i don't read a thread from the start. The swedish meetings start at just after 6pm so i'm still trying to do several things at once. I'm even having to watch the meeting using the live tv pause facility. I keep catching up when i can fast forward through the tv breaks only to fall behind again lol.

Pawlicki and Sundstrom are a potent reserve pairing for Piraterna!

Perfect timing the length of the interval it gave me just enough time to go for a......ok i won't mention that but i feel lighter now. And no i'm not Al Bundy in disguise lol.

Disappointing 'effort' by Richardson in that heat has pretty much sealed the home win???
