racers and royals

With THJ crowned Swedish champion last evening that should have done his chances of a wildcard no harm at all-if he doesn`t make it in from the challenge final.

Especially for you 96707 today.

It`s also on tv4 just so frustrating-during my search have found another Polish streaming site with loads more streamers-don`t know anything about it so will tread carefully http://livelooker.com/en/tv,7,speedway.html

started looking 1 hour ago-absolutely zilch

Tarnow have an injury crisis before tomorrow`s home match-Hancock, Buckzowski and now Vaculik injured. Teams http://www.sportowef...ydarzenie/25247

Nykoping home of Griparna.

Ghostie will know I`m sure-but it looks as if it`s 2 points deducted - they were inspected because the track was rubbish so I assume it`s because they couldn`t produce a raceable track.

Don`t want to put a damper on proceedings, however Kanal on their listings at present are not showing it as being on-I do hope they have it and not DK4 for instance Just watched it for the first time and because of where the riders were in front of Martin-I don`t think he could see him until he ploughed into the stricken Leon.

Is it complicated though ? they reward the top team by letting them host the final, and by means of the match points they also reward them so that 1st or 2nd in the grand final secures them the title.

So we move on to the grand final next Wednesday at Holsted Line-up Holsted 4 match points Esbjerg 2 match points Region Varde 1 match point Munkebo Points in the final are winner 4 2nd 3 3rd 2 4th 0

With tonight`s match remaining to complete the regular season the league table after last night looks like this 1 Esbjerg p14 pts 22 2 Holsted p13 pts 21 3 Region Varde p14 pts 19 4 Munkebo p14 pts 18 5 Holstebo p14 pts 16 6 Slangerup p13 pts 15 So tonight has importance for both teams-nothing less than a win for Slangerup will do whereas a win for Holsted will secure top spot and home venue for the final (4 teams match.) Teams-courtesy of Holsted website Holsted 1. Martin Vaculik (A) 2. Patrick Hougaard ( 3. Rasmus Jensen ( 4. Adrian Gomolski © 5. Tommy Pedersen (D) Slangerup 1. Leon Madsen (A) 2. Kenneth Kruse Hansen ( 3. Mikkel Michelsen ( 4. Jesper Søgaard (D) 5. Kenni Nissen © If I am reading the rules right the points carried into the super final are top of league 4pts runners-up 2 pts 3rd 1pt and then points are for winning super-final winner 4 2nd 3 3rd 2 Holsted website are saying that Slangerup cannot reach final whatever happens tonight.

Good news finally-semi`s 1st leg on Tuesday 9th September on "delayed live" at 8pm and one of the 2nd legs on Tuesday 16th at 8.30pm and the other on Wednesday 17th at 8.15pm both "delayed live"

The FIM made a new rule prior to this season that they would only go so far down the challenge non-qualifiers before having their own pick. This season we already have Smolinski (4th) Harris (5th) Batchelor (6th) and MJJ 7th in it at the moment. Edit Andersen is next in line

Just a reminder today`s action Grindsted v Munkebo gete underway at 5pm uk time http://kanalsport.dk/

Table going into tonight-with all teams in action and 6 of them in their final regular season matches 1 Holsted P 12 pts 20 2 Esbjerg P 13 pts 19 3 Region Varde P 13 pts 19 4 Munkebo P13 pts 17 5 Holstebo P13 pts 16 6 Fjelsted P13 pts 12 7 Slangerup P12 pts 12 8 Grindsted P13 pts 9 Other matches tonight Fjelsted v Holsted Slangerup v Holstebo Esbjerg v Region Varde

My man is going well however !!

I fired another another email off to Eurosport the other day " Thanks XXXXX for the prompt reply-I can accept the reasoning behind the decision.just one last question regarding my emails and responses. Are Eurosport aware that the semi-final 2nd legs are split over 2 nights (1 match on each) Tuesday 16th and Wednesday 17th September(I mentioned this in my first corrected email). I hope you have this covered in your scheduling." This was their reply " Thanks for the info, we have raised this with our programming team in Paris and are awaiting a response." This worries me somewhat-the state of play is that we are missing the QF`s , seeing next Tuesday(9th) semi-final 1st leg on delayed live. seeing the following Tuesday (16th) semi-final 2nd leg match 1 on delayed live and probably ?? missing the Wednesday 17th semi 2nd leg match 2.

Have checked out Bahn.de for trains.Meeting starts 7pm local so finish 10pm or later.i have been to Czestochowa once and the stadium is a little way out of town. What I would do is stay in Czestochowa Friday night and return to Krakow on Saturday-some cheap hotels here http://www.booking.com/index.html?aid=376362;label=booking-name-97*5AB3mj2LkK1b7FsiR8QS36174532762:pl:ta:p1:p2533,000:ac:ap1t1:neg;ws=&gclid=CO2U-dWDwsACFdLKtAodWlIAkg I am sure it will be a cracking meeting as Czestochowa is the best race track in Poland in my opinion.

So they should have phoned Greg in Hospital to ask him what gate he wanted ???-were you on the booze last night ???

Very true-when there is a semi with 2 riders in it- when people start moaning at least I will be able to say told you it would happen

Full meeting here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDCeqivlRcM&list=PLLP7YA_mSetHtKi0S5qMBzU2Gcoy2FsoQ&index=5

Update on TV match action this weekend-all uk times Saturday 6th September 4.30 pm for 5pm 1st race Tarnow v Zielona Gora Sunday 7th September 12.40 pm for 1pm 1st race Div1 Gniezno v Grudziadz 2pm for 2.30 pm 1st race Czestochowa v Leszno followed at 5.30pm for 6pm 1st race Gorzow v Wroclaw http://soccer-live.pl/transmisje.php?id=motorsport http://www.meczyki.pl/ Leszno v Gorzow video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hcueF8NyK1o&list=PLLP7YA_mSetHtKi0S5qMBzU2Gcoy2FsoQ Wroclaw v Torun here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z7CzottraGg&index=4&list=PLLP7YA_mSetHtKi0S5qMBzU2Gcoy2FsoQ

In your case-why run the semi then? you cannot say that because he`s in the semi but doesn`t finish the race-he`s in the final that`s ridiculous. Gorzow GP over 3 hours (Polish) here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_bP6u83FlY&list=PLLP7YA_mSetHtKi0S5qMBzU2Gcoy2FsoQ

And what happens when as I suggested 2 are injured 2 ride-great race that !!!!-and 1 has ef-then 3 in the final ? Maybe as Capt Mainwaring would have said I`m in the realm of fantasy there !!!
