Best meeting I've watched for ages, made better by lack of over excited commentator. Can't say I wanted Sweden to win after the lucky way they reached the final but fair play as a team they deserved it. It would have been easier watching if the team kevlars were not so similar, at times if was like watching the red and white team vs the blue and yellow team especially with the long shots.

I'll probably watch the 7 pm version too cos I'm sure I missed some of the action there was so much lol

Classic tweet message from Sir Shoutalot

 

"@NigelPearson Stunning #MonsterEnergySWC Final here in Poland down to last heat. See it at 7pm UK time on @EurosportUKTV don't miss it. Great #Speedway"

 

The pillock thinks he's in Poland!

Maybe he needs to rehydrate

In the end not a toatal disaster of a trip saw 16 heats of the final at the track and watched last 4 heats on my iPhone in the car on route to Billund was by far the best final I've been too - well done to Sweden on there win those criticising Iversen I don't agree with Pedersen and Bjerre cost the Danes victory without doubt .

In a way it is wrong to give anyone the blame.Sort of suggesting Denmark lost the title rather than Sweden won it.Was a fantastic final and I know they are all doing it for the fame,dosh and glory rather than for our entertainment,but this time they really did entertain.Can we hope some saboteurs go into Vojens the night before the next big meeting and give it a right old soaking.......

Surely if you are trying to avoid finding out a result you avoid the official website!?! Or is that just me?

 

No that seems like normal common sense.

 

Anyway I heard an interview with Sweden's team manager who said that the assisting team manager Mats Olsson had promised

the riders a trip to Spain if Sweden won the SWC so someone will probably have some financial nightmares for a while.

Maybe the BBC should take the football scores off there website next year in as people who don't want to know the scores before they watch match of day might look on the site .

What an amazing meeting, all those moaning about a wet rain off that is why it was best to postpone. A speedway RACING meeting of the finest order on a dry track.

 

That is why we love speedway, racing out of the top draw, riders throwing bikes at each other with no holds barred. A good example of why we must get a fifth reserve rider back for next season. How we escaped without a rider being injured I don't know, but had it happened it would have ruined an amazing meeting.

 

Sweden worthy winners, although shame it ended with an exclusion for Denmark. I wonder if the Aussies still want to defend Ward, or ask him hard questions about why he was not there with them on track tonight!

 

Nicki was off form tonight, (I wonder if people will have a go at him like they did Harris the other night). Perhaps for Denmark this is another reason not to cede the hosts, they need track time. If the hosts have to be ceded then they must go to the race-off, not the final.

 

Why did Pearson kept going on about every nation having one ride (after 4 races) and two rides (after 8 races)?

 

Fantastic speedway, I just wish every meeting was like this. I can't remember when I have seen racing like that in a long time.

 

I really can't see the problem. If you want to know the result look on the BSPA site.

If you watched it you know what happened, if you didn't simply avoid everywhere.

For once I think BSI or whoever actually thought about fans.

Exactly, I waited to watch it tonight, so I stayed off speedway sites and I am so glad I did. Had I wanted to know the result I would have looked online. It's a shame it was not shown live, but understandable with so much great sport on TV this afternoon.
