manchesterpaul 447 Posted July 5, 2011 regarding the tv meeting between Väservik and Vargarna, Västervik is a good home team but Vargarna's form have improved lately however they're still weak at reserve and Västervik should be able to get a decent points advantage in the reserve fight while Vargarna normally is stronger at the mainbody positions. Personally i think that Västervik will win thanks to stronger reserves. Annoyed at myself i didn't post this pre-meeting as i was intending to but i got sidetracked. Whilst not having the confidence to challenge your superb knowledge of swedish speedway, i would have thought the reserve match up balances out as surely Kim Nilsson is a very good rider? I promise with all my heart i was intending to post that before he streaked away at the initial staging of the second heat. Also, you do give Vargarna a fair chance in the match though? I think they do have a decent chance of putting up a very good battle indeed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ghostwalker 1,859 Posted July 5, 2011 (edited) mp , i agree that Kim is a good rider, but kim+viktor vs. Pontus+okon = advantage Västervik in my opinion. Vargarna has a good chance absolutely but i think Västervik will win. Especially if Viktor is unable to continue. Edited July 5, 2011 by Ghostwalker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manchesterpaul 447 Posted July 5, 2011 (edited) The next heat is possibly a key one and if the away team is to win, one would expect a heat win, if not hmmmmm they might struggle. Edited July 5, 2011 by manchesterpaul Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manchesterpaul 447 Posted July 5, 2011 (edited) 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.

mikec 412 Posted July 5, 2011 (edited) Great race from Bomber & Rico in heat 6. Agree GW that Nicki could've helped his teammate, just left Richardson to it. Edited July 5, 2011 by mikec Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

manchesterpaul 447 Posted July 5, 2011 (edited) 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.

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. Regards.
