Pro league continues with no communication at all. Probably RR to cover or maybe Lindback steps in? Not sure if avg allows it tbh. No hansen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Goddard Posted June 29, 2021 Report Share Posted June 29, 2021 The altered time slot was so they could avoid Sweden playing this evening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah, I get that...and it makes total sense for them to have moved it...but it ensured you were mainly working for an audience that would be watching later rather than live Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racers and royals Posted June 29, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2021 Just watched it and it was hardly inspiring stuff- hopefully the other meeting will be better to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racers and royals Posted June 29, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2021 (edited) Vastervik v Rospiggarna was excellent i thought. The Vastervik track produces the best racing in Sweden bar none and tonight you could see how comfortable the riders were with the track. Lidsey was on fire for the home team with a 12 + 3 paid max. Przedpelski was also un troubled by an opponent with a 15 point max. Kulakov and Smektala gave good back up. Lahti was best for the Hallstavik team with 11 from 6 Edited June 29, 2021 by racers and royals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col Posted June 29, 2021 Report Share Posted June 29, 2021 Via Lambert's social media I've seen Lejonen won away, I assume that was the uninspiring televised match? Agree from what I've seen (very limited) Vastervick is the best track in Sweden, Vetlanda the worst, Hallstavik in a not too distant second Malila, Kumla & Eskilstuna all usually Ok.

IainB Posted June 30, 2021 Report Share Posted June 30, 2021 Since the post pandemic return of the Swedish League both last season and this the crowds that I've seen on the Premier Sports TV matches have been absolutely woeful, from what I can see from the camera angles, with seemingly more people in the pits than on the terraces. They're still tracking a number of the big names from around the world... How on earth are they managing to fund this? I assume government restrictions are still in place? Are they being funded by the government or have they got a platinum plated TV deal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they being funded by the government or have they got a platinum plated TV deal? They are under restrictions - although from Thursday they are allowed 3000 fans as long as they are seated. The sport in Sweden is run differently from the UK as the clubs are run by the town/community rather than a promoter. This means that they have local sponsors which fund the teams in a big way. Yes it must be costly but attendances are normally good in Sweden averaging anywhere between 1500-3000 and higher for the play-offs. A large number of the teams riders use their Polish kit along with their Polish mechanics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still the wage bill must be quite hefty, especially with very very very limited crowds for the last year... the sponsors must have deep pockets!

Piraterna 1 Jamrog 2 Broberg 3 Fienhage 4 Seifert-Salk 5 THJ 6 Bjorling Could Zmarzlik's absence be connected with Gorzow riding the following night and them wanting him to be 'fresh'? That Piraterna team in the other match is woefully weak and I'd be surprised if they make 30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
