well Lejonen , Dackarna and Elit Vetlanda have the big money and can seems to be able to sign anyone they like contract or not. Also you should add Västervik to those with financial difficulties. About Smederna, i know they are negotiating with 2 different companies about either of them buying the team and arena name which would bring in some £120'000 to the team.

Leigh Adams will ride 7-10 meetings for Lejonen next season.

dackarnas Team: Hans Andersen Danmark Andreas Jonsson Sverige Peter Karlsson Sverige Fredrik Lindgren Sverige Grzegorz Zengota Polen Rory Schlein Australien Nikolai Klindt Danmark Ludvig Lindgren Sverige Christian Isomettä Sverige this means that Dackarna twice during this season have "stolen" a contracted rider from Smederna.

Hammarby has decided to withdrw from Elitserien. http://www.na.se/artikel.asp?intId=1405075&insn=1 http://www.ekuriren.se/link.php?id=755082

Team Dalakraft is a separate club like all other 2nd teams. i think its a rule thing that one club cant have more then one team. i think Masarna is Avesta SK (Sport/speedway Club) and Team Dalakraft is Gasarna SK

according to a news paper article, Masarna will be declared bankrupt and will withdrawn from Allsvenskan. Therefore Masarnas 2nd team, Team Dalakraft will be promoted to Allsvenskan since they won Division 1. the full story can be read here: http://www.dt.se/nyheter/article367386.ece

rumours are that Smederna will loose Schlein and gain Micke max and possible Batchelor.

yes it is since it is taken from the Official FIM pressrelease document.

according to aktuellspeedway.nu Lejonen's squad is now complete: Nicki Pedersen Sebastian Ulamek Piotr Swiderski Chris Holder David Ruud Tomasz Jedrzejak Mariusz Wegrzyk Daniel Jeleniewski Dave Watt in addition to the riders above Ricky Kling and Robert Pettersson will be available from Gnistorna.

well i would like a gp in Budapest at Nepstadion/Puskás Ferenc Stadion or maybe its a bit too big compared to Stadion Andrássy utca in Miskolc.

About Gothenburg BSI/IMG signed a three year contract with them so no matter how crapppy the track is they will comeback for 2009 and 2010.

so two questions then. First where will the gp at september 26th be held? second where will event 2 of the SWC be held? Sweden or Britain and at what venue?

As F-S-P says, DM stand for Distrikts Mästerskap, when it comes to sport distrikt (district) is a regional sub-organisation of a national sports fedration. Usually one province/county is one district. This means that DM is a Distric championship.

He will stay with Elit Vetlanda. No contracts are signed yet but Jason has told Vetlanda that he will stay with them.

Antonio will ride for Piraterna next year according sr.se/ostergotland

Piraterna is going to have a press conference later today at 15.00 where they are going to present a new rider. Probably it will Antonio LIndbäck who then will leave the newly promoted Vargarna.

allot of people in here moans about Scott not bothering with the qualifications, but they consider Emil and Holder for WC. Shouldn't Emil and Holder qualify on their own just like Ulamek, Walasek and Bjerre? IMO both Holder and especially Emil are a bit too young to be in the GPs just yet. Holder should wait to 2010 and emil possible to '10 or '11. Just look at Lindgren and Kasper this year and Antonio and Hans Andersen a couple of years ago. All of them were good in the leagues but struggled in the GPs. So for next season i would choose Jonas D instad of either Holder and Emil If i could decdide in the future i would scrap all this WC nominations and just have a qualifying series replacing the qualification final.

yeah and what about Jarkko Nieminen

i agree Peter but i also kinda like Peter Nahlin's (swedish tv commentator) suggestion about having atleast the final round at a temporary track to take the neutrality a step further.

AJAJAJ says today in Aftonbladet that his threat of boycotting the Swedish World Cup team was just bluff. He says he wanted to get some reactions about how the Swedish Motorcyclesports Federation (SVEMO) was run. if you "translates" that to English it means AJ himself wanted more attention. he has done similar things before when he felt that he didnt got enough attention from media.

well Jennie i seriously doubt that they bring Hampel in when they've already got Holta, Gollob, Walasek and Ulamek in there. But i agree on the thing about 18 year old riders.

lol Countries? Votes? its all down to a very few number of poeple at BSI/IMG.

well i think the problems is if one rider wins more then one final that qualifies him to the Super Prix, which second placed rider should be moved up and why him and not the other(s)?

im pretty sure hampel wont get one when there's already 3 or 4 Poles. The same with Iversen 3 danes already and what motivates 4-5 and 4 danes and 1-2 swedes?

im sure she is a very nice person. but it was impossible to undertsand what she was saying except "Dejligt"
