Why cant they use Zagar? Or was he only temporary replacement for Holder? Also no R/R for Greg and now Pawlicki missing? By the way, with Kolodziej at 4 I sense some fake doctor's note there as well and R/R for him. Are you able to confirm? (I'm pretty sure Tarnow doesn't want to take any more risk with Hancock already injured and Vaculik, Buczkowski still not fully fit).

Gonna be smaller and for league racing only? Where any pics/plans can be found?

Is it similar to Polish and British finals formula? Top 2 to the final, 3-6 run off for remaining 2 places in the final?

Few thoughts before tapes go up. Meeting is well promoted in Polish media, I'm pretty sure 7-10k Zielona Gora supporters will come to watch it. As much as I hate Falubaz , I need to admit that it is probably best run speedway club in the world (from marketing/PR/financial perspective). In summary, we will probably see some nice speedway event and if they prepare track with some dirt on it, it will be good. Hopefully weather will be kind as it is boring as hell in Zielona Gora when it's slick. Some ideas for the future? There must be some rules preventing guest apperances. Guests make whole story a bit of a joke but it doesn't have to be like that. Let's say it is similar format with 5 riders/team. SImple rule that all riders declared for WSL have to ride in minimum 25% of meetings in local leagues would do the trick. Or maybe 1 guest for each team allowed? Even field and rules the same for everyone. Any opinions guys?

Any idea about the rules/format? Exactly the same as SWC? With jokers etc.?

What a joke it is. Sayfutdinov and Piotr Pawlicki to ride for Poole? Kasprzak for Esbjerg? At least Zielona Gora and Piraterna will use their own riders. Why no Milik and Newman?

Some talks in Poland about alcohol tests for EVERY rider before EVERY meeting, starting next season. Good idea for sure.

Elitserien need to sort RR rules next season. How come teams can use facility every time they want, for a rider who is not injured? Loktaev 2 great meetings in Poland, Kasprzak perfectly fit too but still Dackarna and Vastervik were able to cover their absences with RR. Much better system in Poland. You rider is injured then he cant have any meetings in 2 weeks time.

Not that I want to defend him as he is from Zielona Gora and I simply hate them but does it make any sense to use any kind of doping in speedway?

2 race nights (Monday + Wednesday or Thursday), max 18 meetings/team in regular season (in 10 teams EL league) + playoffs. That is amount of meetings top riders will be happy to book in UK I believe (idea of watching every away team twice/season is simply stupid for me). 14 meetings in regular season in Poland and you know what? Every single one is a big thing for supporters. Make it more exclusive, bring top boys back and people will come to watch it. Keep one British youngster in the team (to build bright future) and you will see progress. Nothing better than learn from the best (Poland and Sweden in this case). Squad system with 2 number ones as an option for GP boys also good thing. R/R, guest system - must go.

Problem can simply be solved in the future. New FIM regulation that any rider can only ride for 1 team that was champion in 4 of biggest leagues year before. Let's say Kings Lynn, Zielona Gora, Vetlanda and Holsted win leagues in 2014. Then Hampel have to chose Zielona Gora or Vetlanda for 2015. It will only be a problem for 1 or 2 riders every year and they are good enough to find new teams anyway.

Woffinden >= Ward King >= Woodward Harris =< Batchelor Stead =< Doyle Pretty well balanced teams. Will be close for sure. Expecting great battle!

OK fair enough, all clear now. Thought that Aspgren's ave was below Gapinski.

He did in heat 5 (gate 3) and took 6 rides on the night.

Last week Miedzinski took one of Aspgren's rides which surprised me a lot. Have R/R rules changed? Can team manager pick ANY rider with higher avarage? I'm pretty sure Miedzinski was not the one directly above Aspgren.

This Danish league is sick. 6 heats in 75 minutes. No tempo at all. Booring

Thanks Ghost. Still better than Mellgren I guess. Looking forward to watch it. Zorro the key for Smederna (13 pts last year, 9 in 2012). Good, close meeting in prospect.

Cool, thanks r&r.

Great previews. Like always! Much appreciated Ghost. By the way, any dates for last week's rained off meetings?

Thanks Ghost!

Can they use R/R? Or not possible as he is not injured? Also the same applies to Vastervik. R/R for Nermark (he is at Birmingham tonight, I believe)? Edit: Found new Piraterna lineup on SVEMO http://ta.svemo.se/Public/Pages/Competition/DrivingSchedule/CompetitionLiveResult.aspx?Branch=Speedway&Columns=CompetitionInfo,Branch,Name,Arena,Organizer,FromDateShort&Datefilter=Today&pagesize=10&CompetitionId=3333 Seems that Rosen replacing Darcy and looks like Nermark is either riding or R/R allowed.

Watt injured in England yesterday. Who's gonna step in? By the way it looks like only rain free meeting will be Rospi vs. Vetlanda.

Lots of live speedway on TV's/Internet this season. Good stuff. By the way, is there any site with livescoring/live updates for Danish league? And where can I find full team lineups (with grades A,B,C,D etc. and avarages)?

Any idea what time is official practice on Friday? Edit: Just found. 17:00
