For Elitserien, Lejonen's "loose on purpose strategy" have affected their attendance negatively, the same goes for the bad weather during June and July. Smederna's first meeting was very bad (1288) but then there have been 2000+ for the rest of the meetings with the last home meeting against Dackarna as the best meeting attendance wise with 3400. Have in mind also that the 2014 had 6 teams to post-season while there were only 4 teams this season (no quarter finals) which I think will affect the average negatively for this season. The Swedish second league, Allsvenskan had an average attendance of 997 this season.

Bjerre is hardly a rider that would ride for pocket change on the contrary he is usually described as a rider with high demands. Also the rumours is that Nicki and Holder have been given a very good pay rate. Well we'll see. Let's just say that Fröjd and Nicki have a history of leaving a trail of financial "weakness" behind them...

Jacob Thorssell have signed for Rospiggarna. Was really hoping to see him in Smederna but Rospiggarna supposedly gave him a very good financial offer. KIm Nilsson signed for Masarna. http://avestatidning.com/sport/1.3200099-sm-medaljoren-kim-nilsson-klar-for-masarna Lejonen will present their squad at press conference in 10 minutes. It can be watched at this link: http://www.vn.se/article/vn-sander-presskonferens/ Nicki, Bjerre, Pontus Aspgren and Matthias Thörnblom have been presented by Lejonen. Anders Thomsen also signed with Lejonen. Okononiewski stays with Lejonen, Hans Andersen also signed with Lejonen. Chris Holder also signed by Lejonen. So Lejonen to be bankrupt within 3 years then.

Because it's British immigration authorities duties to pay attention to anyone who wants to enter the UK, especially if those who want to enter also want work in the UK. -

On the othet hand MX and enduro (in some cases) uses physical start gates and those you mentioned doesn't have a single line grid. -
No I doubt RB sponsorship have any influence on wild card picks, monster sponsorship on the other hand...

I really doubt that. Dackarna ain't as financially strong as they used to be.

Maciej signed with Dackarna (same team as Dudek) and Maciej said that he chose between England and Sweden so when Dackarna offered him a contract he chose that one. http://www.speedwaynyheter.se/2015/10/09/dackarna-varvar-tva-ganger-polskt/

It is clear that 4 riders will not remain with Dackarna. 1. Nicki Pedersen (will move to Lejonen) 2. Rasmus Jensen 3. Joonas Kylmäkorpi 4. Hans Andersen, Nicki and Joonas will likely ride for Lejonen next season. Rasmus Jensen might not get a new club since the agreement regarding Swedes have changed from 3 Swedish licensed riders to 3 riders with Swedish passport. Not sure about Hans but I don't think is particular "hot" on the "free agent market". http://www.speedwaynyheter.se/2015/10/09/kvartett-far-lamna-dackarna/ Smederna have been very quiet but my guess is that that the team will keep the same riders as last season (except Pawlicki) with maybe (speculation) Artem as a replacement for Przemyslaw. So that would make: Kenni, Prezedpelski, Grigorij, Michelsen, Artem, Eklöf, Zetterström and one more Swede.

So it seems that Daugavpils are interested in riding in Ekstraliga next season but apparently, according to Daugavpils, the interest is not mutual. 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%2F551943%2Fekstraliga-niezainteresowana-lokomotivem-lotysze-licza-na-zmiane-stanowiska&edit-text=
