Ghostwalker 1,858 Posted November 15, 2011 Daniel King and Jurica Pavlic who both rode for Dackarna the past season, will both ride for Västervik next year. This means that Gollob will not, as some speculations say, ride for Västervik in 2012. http://wmsk.se/speedway/Lokala_Nyheter.aspx?id=3763 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anders can you confirm this? Yes, Bosse said that on yesterday's press conference (which I attended). Also, meetings will no longer take place at Vetlanda Motorstadion, but Elitfönster Arena, as Elitfönster have bought the naming rights for the arena. The window company will be the main sponsor for Elit Vetlanda for another two seasons, according to Elit Vetlanda's website. (However, the track will be the same, so many will consider this news with the "same rubbish, different name" mentality). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anders 0 Posted November 16, 2011 With their announced line-up, the LAST word anyone could apply is "rubbish" What a team!! Best wishes. Alan. Just thought of the "general" opinion about the track when I made that comment. The arena name will be different but the track will be the same. (Also, I wrote something else than "rubbish", but I guessed the forum would have none of it...!) One should remember that two Swedes must be included in the line-up, and at least one of them being an U21. Also, there's a maximum average limit to consider. To make a a general comment, Elit Vetlanda's line-up would look something like: Base: Hampel, Crump, Sayfutdinov, Jonasson Option 1: Vaculik/Ruud/Madsen + Proctor and Thorssell at reserve Option 2: Two of Vaculik/Ruud/Madsen + Lindqvist It's a good line-up, but Elitserien of 2012 will consist of several ultra strong teams.

Thanks Anders. Whichever way you slice and dice it, that is a team to make the home supporters beam. Can't wait to see the other line-ups! Tuesday nights will be un-missable. Regards. Alan.
