Elitserien 2018 round 13, 14 August
Ghostwalker replied to Ghostwalker's topic in International World of Speedway
It wasn't disappointing if you know what to expect from Gislaved and Hampel only scoring 4p was also expected. He is extremely aquaphobic. A few heats from Smedena-Indianerna. Having seen the replay, Lindgren's move wasn't as bad as it looked from my point of view in the stand. He goes under Thomsen and Thomsen bailed on his own. -
The continuing decline of Speedway
Ghostwalker replied to wealdstone's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Meetings are not televised, only available on streaming service. All clubs except one have over 2000 on average. My team Smederna almost have 5000 on average. It was 4200 yesterday but the rain probably scared away 1000-15000 or so. http://se.aktuellspeedway.eu/publik/elitserien/2018/ https://ta.svemo.se/Public/Pages/Serie/Audience/AudienceStatistics.aspx?SerieId=1142 -

Winner of Dackarna -Smederna will win the league. If Rospiggarna wins big and Smederna looses then Rospiggarna will claim second. -

Smederna - Indianerna https://sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/relacja/85444/eskilstuna-smederna-kumla-indianerna A really crazy meeting. Smederna had allot of misfortune and struggle in the first half and were 8p down. Like always they fight they back but on three occasions in the last 4 heats I thought we were loosing. 1. After heat 12 were MJJ and MickMich looses with 1-5 and it's only three heats to go. 2. heat 14 when NKI does a TT but Michelsen won over Woffy and Milik in the re-run. The first bend was crazy 3 out of 4 riders where on their back wheels going out of bend 1 lap 1 but somehow they managed to avoid crashing. 3. In heat 15 when it looked liked Freddy had moved down Thomsen but where Thomsen eventually was excluded.

Smederna wins the last heat with 5-0 since Pepe was excluded in the first try due to getting his second warning. -

Extremely idiot move by Lindgren who dives ahead of Thomsen who crashes heavily trying to avoid Lindgren but can walk back to the pits on his own . Thomsen is excluded. -

Ghostwalker replied to Ghostwalker's topic in International World of Speedway
Utterly pathetic by Smederna so far. Michelsen have R R 1 so far, Aspgren is R R, Iversen 1+1... front wheel lifts in 5-1 position which turns into 2-4.... This is the 3rd straight meet were we are struggling and struck by bad luck. Things are looking better now, we are back at equal after 10 heats. Lindgren had a really beauty of a pass on Milik in heat 10. -

Weather update. A rain system is moving up over the country and the three meetings in Småland will probably go ahead as planned. The meeting at Eskilstuna is a bit uncertain though since the rain system just have reached us here. -

World U21 team cup final Saturday August 18th

Woentin also crashed in Avesta a week ago and got hit by a foot rest in his head. I'd say Woentin is doubtful too. -

Filip Hjelmland won't be riding. He is out for the rest of the season due to injury. -
Boxall given 2 year ban refusing drug test
Ghostwalker replied to dazzafl's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
There is a reason to why substances are banned. Some improve the person's stamina/strength and etc. Others affect the person's mind/perception in in a negative way meaning that one shouldn't operate motor vehicles or heavy machinery while taking those substances. Alcohol is one example on the latter, some medicines also have this effect. If he is taking such pain killers he should absolutely not be riding a speedway bike against other rider because he would be a danger to himself and others. -
Lindbäck already qualified and I think Lindgren is pretty safe for top 8 unless injury which is the Swedes sorted. For Denmark, we have a qualified rider in Iversen. As for Nicki, I'd think that he would be considered for a wild card if he finishes 9th but not if he finishes 10th or worse. It depends on how much FIM/BSI feel that they need two danes. I personally hope that Nicki finished top 8 but I don't think he will. Both Nicki and Greg received wild cards for this season and I am not fond of giving out wild cards to the same riders two years in a row.

I have been there once, quite many years ago. You will find wooden benches on all tracks although Smederna's track have a grandstand along the start/finish straight with foldable plastic seats as well as another roofed grandstand (with wooden benches). Sannahed also has a small grandstand with foldable plastic seats.
