Swedish 2021 Season (info on 1st page with signings, rules and etc).

[pandorum]

Thanks for bracketing "info on the first page" in the threads title Ghostwalker it certainly helps me a lot as it was shocking the number of times i forgot lol. Plus it's great for any newcomers to the thread as we often saw fans ask for info that was on the first page and they never knew.

 

Just hope i'm still a follower this coming season as i'm unsure i'll continue if there is no English language tv/online broadcast

It's still good with Swedish and Polish commentry Paul mate.

It's just depression cause Utd are doing a Liverpool this season you will get over it once the Swedish season starts

Hell when Sudden Sam is involved in commentary it might as well be in Swahili so Polish, Swedish or Danish is a nice change after Sam

Just realised a tragedy of immense magnitude, the Premier Sports TV broadcast used to give multiple mentions and also praise for the MiniMax racecards during a programme and that ain't going to happen with Swedish and Polish stations lol lol. Mind you to balance out the Ying and Yang Thing i hear there is at least one tasty lady on the overseas presenting team.

Ha! Ha! very good.

It's cool, when they won the Treble i swore that if they never won another trophy again that would be fine. They did that in a season of incredible fixture pile-ups, they met the top teams in the FA Cup with ties going into replays and extra-time, plus amazing comebacks in games and then to win the three trophies in such a narrow space of time was staggering.

Hopefully it's only a one season blip, other top teams have disappeared for a few years at a time Arsenal, Liverpool etc. Can't help but observe that.....

David Moyes spent 11 years trying to get Everton to finish above United. Looks like he's finally going to achieve it.

SkySports News are doing a special interview tonight at 6pm asking him all about his achievements. And at 6.01 it's back to the studio.

I just heard a news report saying david moyes got stopped for speeding in Manchester. It's believed he won't contest the charges as he told the police that "at this point in time I'll take 3 points from anywhere".

We shouldn't be too harsh on Moyes as Old Trafford is a hard place to win a game of football.

Several female Manchester United fans have complained that David Moyes wouldn't autograph their breasts. Old Trafford have confirmed that Moyes has only been able to sign one right t## so far this season.

I nearly had a car accident last night! I was coming home down a country lane when I nearly hit what appeared to be a frightened rabbit caught in the glare of the headlights. But when I looked closer it was just david moyes crossing the road.

Fredrik Lindgren have decided that he will not appeal his supension.

[manchesterpaul]

I see Vetlanda had a whopping win in the two day, eight team Vetlanda Cup. I'll hold back from posting scores in case Ghostwalker has more in depth knowledge of the 'festival of speedway'.

Don't worry, go ahead and post the scores, I have not followed it that much this year.

 

It is more of a pre-season practice cup then a festival of speedway.

That's excellent and 'just' news. Looks like they did a FIM and tried to go against the rules

 

"But with that decision so broke Svemo Foundation's statutes regarding the Press Act and the Fundamental Law. Svemo now withdraws his sentence and with immediate effect. We made ​​a procedural defect. The decision should have been taken by the Disciplinary Board, and we now feel that it is right to take it away and start over,"

With the start of the season still almost two weeks away, I think we could enjoy some sweet memories from last season:

 

This is heat 13 in the second leg of the QF between Smederna and Indianerna at Indianerna's track Sannahed just south of Kumla.

This is probably one of the best heats in Elitserien last season so watch and enjoy speedway when speedway is at it's best.
