Yeah I think we can assume that there won't be any fixtures list until PZM knows which teams that goes to which league. We will know in two weeks time which teams that will be allowed to continue.

Yeah I have read that as well. http://www.smt.se/article/vetlanda-soker-stortavling/ In general though I think that Målilla and Stockholm are a bit too close, only 5 weeks apart.

Four clubs have joined forces and helped Rasmus Broberg financially with the appeal of his suspension. They all consider it to be wrong to suspend Rasmus for two months when Greg only got 10 days. http://www.speedwaynyheter.se/2015/11/14/fyra-klubbar-overklagar-brobergs-avstangning/

The Swedish national team that won gold in this year's SWC are one of 4 nominees to team of the year award at the Swedish sports awards gala (Svenska idrottsgalan) in January. There opponents are, Team Edin (Curling, won EuroCh a year ago and WorldCH in April this year), Womens medley team swimming (winners 4x100medley in W,Ch. 2015) and men's U21 national team football (winners U21 world cup 2015, first time Swe have won U21 wc). Imo the football team will be clear favourites to win. http://ikarossmederna.se/speedwaylandslaget-nominerade-till-idrottsgalan/ http://idrottsgalan.se/nomineringar-2016/arets-lag/

According to the rules, no meeting is allowed on the track from 5 days before to 2 days after a scheduled SWC meeting. Nothing regarding unofficial practice as far as I can see. If it rains on Friday evening, the meeting will have to be moved anyway regardless of drainage and track covers.

Västervik will have one SWC semi final: http://www.dagensvimmerby.se/sport/speedway/e/1869/lag-vm-i-speedway-kors-i-vastervik/

I think Eurosport is a part of the SEC concept so it's unlikely that the rights for Britain could be sold to BT Sport.

Vaculik confirms that he will ride for Torun next season; https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=sv&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fsportowefakty.wp.pl%2Fzuzel%2F559574%2Fmartin-vaculik-potwierdzil-przenosiny-do-ks-torun&edit-text=

Hallstavik will host the 2016 Swedish individual final. The date will be decided about once FIM and FIM-Europe have released their schedules for 2016. http://www.speedwaynyheter.se/2015/11/11/sm-hallstavik-far-arrangemanget-aven-2016/

Dakota North have signed for Västervik. http://www.speedwaynyheter.se/2015/11/10/australiensare-klar-for-vastervik/

Quite possible, but that doesn't mean that BSI doesn't have any influence.

No, it is also Zielona Gora and to some extent Tarnow.

Surely discussions about SGP/SWC rights is more suitable in the GP-section?

Just for your information, there are doubts regarding Swedish speedway's future on ESP.

Aaron Summers have signed with Griparna. http://www.speedwaynyheter.se/2015/11/05/summers-klar-griparna/

Possible Mikkel Michelsen or Kenni Larsen could be interesting as well. Mikkel was top 3 in the U21 ch and Kenni have had his best season ever despite injury problems.

I have to disagree with that. in 2014 maybe but not this season or at least not outside Poland. In Sweden all of them (except Dudek) have a lower average then Jonsson. Kolodziej and Protasiewicz are past their prime anyway and they didn't do particular well during their previous SGP attempts.

Mikkel Michelsen have signed another one year contract with Smederna. http://ikarossmederna.se/mikkel-michelsen-stannar-i-eskilstuna/

An open letter from Daugavpils to the Polish speedway authorities: https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=sv&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fsportowefakty.wp.pl%2Fzuzel%2F557864%2Flokomotiv-wystosowal-list-otwarty-jest-rozczarowany-niesportowymi-zasadami-tworz&edit-text= It seems that ZG's financial problems will have to be dealt with before the start of December, the debt is in the range of 2M zlotys (~£330'000), https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&prev=_t&hl=sv&ie=UTF-8&u=http%3A%2F%2Fsportowefakty.wp.pl%2Fzuzel%2F557828%2Fzawodnicy-falubazu-poczekaja-do-grudnia&edit-text=

I also would like to see that the permanent riders for 2016 (excluding reserves and single GP wild cards) will not be allowed to enter the qualifiers for the following season. So those who are not top 8 in 2016 will have to sit out the SGP for 2017 or rely on wild card. However I think in a not too distant future the SGP will drift more towards MotoGP/F1 and etc, type of championship with teams employing riders rather then riders qualifying via challanges or by being handed wild cards.

He also finished 3rd in Målilla GP this season. http://speedwaygp.com/results/98

Is that fair? A rider the goes through previous rounds undefeated doesn't get anything more from it then a rider who just manage to squeeze him/herself into the SF or Final? Possible give the winner/top three in each round a bonus point? I also would like the final round to be held over two or three rounds, just like the Ind. U21Ch. It would decrease the risk of track specialist getting an advantage, technical errors and just bad luck or etc.

A pretty decent record but that also means that he have had to be given a wild card for almost every other GP-season.

So far it is race between Poland and Denmark.

He is becoming the charity case heir to Nicholls/Harris/Lindgren.
