Ghostwalker

Nope, nice weather today, Sunny with some clouds.

Yes I know he is but he is still listed in the lineup though, possibly they decided to do R/R for him but that is unconfirmed.

Well he needs to since the Polish IRS is chasing him. According to an article in Speedway, written by their Polish correspondent Angelika Nowak, Holta supposedly have tried to hide income and his club Czestochowa have been accused of helping Holta with that.

Yeah, Pawel is sponsored by Monster.

An interview with Nicki in Ekstrabladet. http://ekstrabladet.dk/sport/anden_sport/motorsport/speedway/venter-paa-laegernes-dom-nicki-frygter-karrieren-er-forbi/6693127 He says that he fears that his career might be over but that he hopes that it is not. He says that he is concerned that this might be it since speedway is his entire life and he also wants to earn a small (more likely a large I'd say ) and steady Shilling. If I had to stop now, the what? asks the 40 years old speedway rider. He will know next week when doctors from Universitets-, og privathospitalet Hamlet have determined if they are new fractures in the neck and how serious they are. He is also says that he is concerned that he have to go 12 weeks with a neck brace since he did that last year and it was unbearable. The second half is about SWC and why Hans Nielsen didn't pick Nicki and etc. Nicki says that he will be ready next month but Hans says that he didn't pick Nicki due to the uncertain physical status of Nicki and due to Nicki's poor results in the SGP. Hans also that they (HN and DK?) hopes that Nicki can participate but that since Nicki don't know when he will be fit, it wouldn't be fair for Nicki to take a place from a younger "forces". http://ekstrabladet.dk/sport/anden_sport/motorsport/speedway/venter-paa-laegernes-dom-nicki-frygter-karrieren-er-forbi/6693127

Not permanently He said that he wouldn't ride anything this year because doctors told him that he wasn't fit enough for Elite level yet and Kenni decided that it was either elite level or nothing. I don't he ever said that it was a permanent retirement.

Kenni Larsen says that his goal is to get back to the level he was at before his accident. http://www.dr.dk/sporten/motorsport/video-speedwaykoerer-efter-skud-i-hovedet-jeg-vil-tilbage-paa-mit-gamle-niveau#!/01:32

' Not much to see if one judge by the scores. Lejonen is 10 up already and it's only 5 heats done.

Smederna - Dackarna off.

It already says 17.00. Still raining at Smedstadion. It should stop soon but unlikely with a before 20.00

Sam Masters is possibly in for Krystian Pieszczek.

It's 17.00 http://www.cmore.se/sport/spel/3912551-piraterna-rospiggarna http://eskilstunasmederna.se/match/tavlingar-pa-eskilstuna-motorstadion/ http://www.elitspeedway.com/nyheter/e/150/samtliga-matcher-startar-1700-pa-nationaldagen/ Some of the meetings may also be delayed due to rain that is and have passed over southern-central Sweden today. https://www.smhi.se/vadret/nederbord-molnighet/radar-blixt-sverige

Nope 4pm UK time. I am surprised (or maybe not) that they chose that meeting. The national day derby between Smederna and Masarna would have been a better choice.

yes that is correct. Just a misunderstanding from my part.

He have become a father. https://www.facebook.com/twoffinden/photos/a.794553520569395.1073741828.702502843107797/1540225979335475/?type=3

It's Monday today which makes tomorrow Tuesday which is equal to Elitserien speedway. Here are the preliminary line-ups for tomorrow's round 4. TV-meeting is Indianerna - Lejonen which I hope will be a good meeting since the Sannahed track usually provides good speedway. Indianerna - Lejonen Indianerna Piotr Protasiewicz Bjarne Pedersen Adrian Miedzinski Nicolai Klindt Kenneth Bjerre Victor Palovaara Ludvig Lindgren Lejonen Piotr Pawlicki Mathias Thörnblom Maksym Drabik Krystian Pieszczek Hans Andersen Magnus Karlsson Chris Holder Masarna - Rospiggarna Masarna Linus Sundström Tai Woffinden Robert Lambert Przemyslaw Pawlicki Joel Andersson Antonio Lindbäck Kim Nilsson Artur Czaja Rospiggarna Andreas Jonsson Jacob Thorssell Max Fricke Timo Lahti Jason Doyle Nicklas Porsing Nike Lunna Elit Vetlanda - Piraterna Elit Vetlanda Martin Vaculik Jonas Davidsson Jarek Hampel Oliver Berntzon Bartosz Zmarzlik Tomas H Jonasson Szymon Wozniak Piraterna Greg Hancock Daniel Davidsson Emil Sayfutdinov Peter Kildemand R/R Niels-Kristian Iversen Joel Larsson Damian Balinski Eskilstuna Smederna - Dackarna Eskilstuna Smederna Michael Jepsen Jensen Linus Eklöf Matej Zagar Pontus Aspgren Grigorij Laguta Mikkel Michelsen Andrej Karpov Dackarna Fredrik Lindgren Maciej Janowski Anders Thomsen Patryk Dudek Kacper Gomolski Peter Ljung Joel Kling Maciej Janowski Mads Korneliussen To be honest there are way too many foreign riders riding as reserves. Holder, Balinksi, Karpov, Michelsen, (Janowski originally intended as reserve but moved up to #1), Korneliussen, Lunna, Wozniak, Czaja. Most ridiculous is of course Holder and Janowski, There are no way the current 4th placed rider in the SGP should be allowed to ride as a reserve. As for the meeting themselves, I think this is hard round to predict.. I think Smederna should be able to bring in a home win. The issue is Eklöf at #2 but with Karpov and Michelsen as reserves, they shall take two of Eklöf's heat I hope. Masarna without Tai is obviously a bit weaker even if Lambert is pretty good as well but I think Rospiggarna will take that one. I also think that Vetlanda should be able to defeat Piraterna at home. Indianerna - Lejonen are difficult to predict. I suspect that it will be a close meeting without any clear favourite, Kildemand is out due to a broken foot. https://www.vetlandaposten.se/article/piratstjarna-missar-motet-med-elit-vetlanda/ blank race card http://www.mediafire.com/file/03s0s7pjyh1yviz/Blank_Heat_schedule_ES.AS.pdf ranking list http://www.svemo.se/sv/Grenar/Speedway/Elitserien2017/Rankinglista/ Live results http://www.svemo.se/sv/Grenar/Speedway/ Weather forecast does show some rain but it should have stopped by race start at 19.00 at most tracks. Vetlanda - Piraterna might be a little delayed though,

With the final round being held in the end of October at Melbourne which pretty much is as far away you can get from Europe, I think it wouldn't work out with logistics and etc. Then I think some riders like Holder would normally stay in Australia and they would then be forced to go back to Europe and then back to Australia again. That would be a waste of money and also very environment unfriendly with riders + their equipment flying back and forth between Europe and Australia,

Of those who still are in the qualifications for next season's SGP and does not currently ride in the SGP, I think Laguta and Milik are the only ones of real interest. However Laguta isn't that good starter and the smaller temporary tracks probably won't suite him especially well.

Dudek is 1p ahead of Doyle and I think that Mickey Mouse do have a point in that we're quite likely to see allot more of tonight's top 3 trio (and other younger Polish riders as well)
