Less than 24 hours to go until the start of the closest end to a series for a while and no thread on show? Is there really no interest in this one! lol. Maybe everyone's gone to the moon Torun? It's actually made me check to see if there was an internet trafffic problem or something going on. However, it's fine and i've also glanced at the racecard server and it's merrily speeding away as normal. I see that there is a fair amount of light rain or drizzle over two days forecast on three of the main weather sites. I've not checked the local radar or anything yet but hopefully the meeting not only shouldn't be in jeopardy but should have a raceable track? It is partially covered by the stands i think (unsure) and there are strong winds forecast. So is it a two rider race for the championship or is there a fair chance Greg can make a battle of it too? Does anyone really care! eeeek! I for one can't wait to savour every minute of it. Chris Holder only two points ahead of Nicki Pedersen and here are their race schedules Heat 2 Tomasz GOLLOB Nicki PEDERSEN Greg HANCOCK Peter LJUNG Heat 4 Jason CRUMP Chris HOLDER Marciej JANOWSKI Fredrik LINDGREN ######################### Heat 6 Chris HOLDER Emil SAYFUTDINOV Jaroslaw HAMPEL Greg HANCOCK Heat 7 Antonio LINDBACK Jason CRUMP Nicki PEDERSEN Martin VACULIK ######################### Heat 11 Peter LJUNG Chris HARRIS Martin VACULIK Chris HOLDER Heat 12 Fredrik LINDGREN Andreas JONSSON Emil SAYFUTDINOV Nicki PEDERSEN ######################### Heat 13 Nicki PEDERSEN Bjarne PEDERSEN Chris HOLDER Hans ANDERSEN ######################### Heat 18 Chris HARRIS Jaroslaw HAMPEL Nicki PEDERSEN Marciej JANOWSKI Heat 20 Tomasz GOLLOB Chris HOLDER Antonio LINDBACK Andreas JONSSON #########################

I've just checked three major forecasts, it's now Friday evening, and although they all refer to rain Friday and Saturday, on the whole it's light rain. Also, there are supposed to be very strong winds which should help dry the track if it gets wet?.

Many thanks on behalf of speedway fans to Dave Goddard. It's been refreshing to have a sports commentator who doesn't have to employ caricature gimmicks in his broadcasts. It may be worth bearing in mind how, aside from football, television companies can have a tendency to shuffle commentators around for their other sports. Therefore hopefuly anyone who has enjoyed the broadcasts will consider dropping a line to Premier Sports and show their appreciation. The racecards will be in place again next season and thanks for the thanks Dave. Unless i'm under the wrong impression i think the flights that Dave refers to are from the studios in Ireland??? Not sure now lol. If so it's all the more reason as to why he has done such a grand job with a restricted information flow.

Oh My Goodness not again. Surely i don't have to explain again as to the VALID reason why i put the thread up the day before the draw? I explained it last time. Also, possibly not but maybe lol (i rarely take note of who a poster of a comment is), are you the chap who when making a post a short while ago said you rarely post on the forum anymore as you see nothing of importance.....yet.....your post was on the subject of posting a racecard first? If you're not well i hope whoever it was reads this hee hee. It was an astounding statement where the poster just hung himself high and dry. CAPITAL LETTERS FOR ANYONE WHO HAS THIS WIERD THING OF THINKING THE NOTICE ABOUT RACECARDS IS TO BE FIRST......NO IT ISN'T WHAT AN ABSOLUTELY INANE CLAIM TO MAKE. If you're going to the 'effort' of making a post try and make one not so childish. Hey in fact here's a tip, try and make the post on something important. The first sentence of the post states the time of the draw and day (tomorrow). For reasons explained in the past the timing of the draw matters a good deal to many people when it comes to getting to print out the racecards. Rhidassa i thought i had (man) blonde moments but exactly what part of the following first words of the post did you not understand "Available following the draw tomorrow afternoon"

Whilst i use IE most of the time and FF occasionally don't forget that when you use Google Chrome it automatically translates foreign language pages to English. It comes in very handy when scouring media for team news from Sweden and Poland. Obviously there is nothing to stop you having all three browsers in use at the same time.

Available following the draw tomorrow afternoon are the TWO different versions of the MiniMax Racecard. The draw this week is currently listed as a late afternon one on both the main and draw pages of the official site at 17:15 Local time (16:15 BST). 　 You can directly download them from the top of the following page and either print on both sides of a single sheet or use in a match programme format over two pages. 　 MiniMax Racecard 2012 TORUN Grand Prix Racecard 　 Basic Version MiniMax Racecard 2012 TORUN Grand Prix Racecard

If Holder doesn't win.......hell YEAH! Go Nicki Go NIcki Go Go Go Ok over and out all off to catch up on the football.

Lest we forget whilst adding congrats all round.......thanks to Ghostwalker for keeping us up to date on the rules all season, much appreciated. Nice to hear a tv commentator thanking members of the BSF i wonder what Nigel Pearson and Kelvin Tatum would say about us!!! Maybe Chris Holder is busy getting his head size measured for his Crown on Saturday.......certainly hope he does win it. Another clear home win to cap the season for Vetlanda.

A shot on tv of Alex Ferguson having a prolonged deep yawn watching Man City........ya should have gone to watch the speedway Alex that would keep you awake.

Great line-up this heat 13 with the addition of Holder. Forum Posters curse ensures he finishes last lol.

Crump good dive to settle for second place behind his partner Ruud for a 5-1. Gee totally forgot about his injuries.

Not been a meeting full of good racing at all but possibly might end up close on aggregate? giving us excitement from another angle. Ouch i forgot all about the football gone and missed 15 mins of it.

Excellent post (the Premier Sports part i mean lol) and certainly seconded, thirded etc etc. Dave Goddard certainly excels when at times there is absolutely zilch information coming his way with rider changes in the heats, particularly in the early part of the season. Also, he is often able to spot key moments and events in a race. He's got a true speedway fans awareness of likely tactical rider changes and.......hold on i am getting a backhander payment for this exaltation aren't i???......most of all it's great to have a commentator who can appreciate fantastic racing without going into screeching hysterics and overstating the slightest overtake etc.

and it's Lindqvist!

Did you need one of those wind up gramophones to play it? It's insane how time flies though FIFTY YEARS good God. Just realized everyone must have resigned and given up asking........"are you going to show Polish speedway" lol. The match threads, emails and tweeets to Premier Sports were forever relentlessly asking them.

"The last time Google visited this site was on 2012-10-03, and the last time suspicious content was found on this site was on 2012-10-02. Malicious software includes 18 trojan(s)." Having said that iLivid is not the worst. I think most on here are seasoned 'streamees' and know of dangers to watch. But if any newcomers are around do NOT click on something blocking the screen saying you need to download it in order to watch the video. Also just because it says it's iLivid (or whatever) doesn't mean it is by any means. Nasties won't imediately present themselves by any means, they LURK lol.

Hope nobody is ever foolish enough to click the livid download?

Don't they know some people have flights to catch

Does the result stand as he flagged it to end???

Wow crazy stuff going on lol A re-run?

Good, just did some Googling on your behalf. Amongst others Comcast users have suffered similar problems with that error code. Amazingly the often advised, but usually never ever works on anything solution of clearing cache and history etc did the trick for some. Others pointed it to being a compatibility issue with IE. It had crossed my mind that it was an authentication issue with you being given a voucher as that sort of thing seems beyond providers to cope with at times. I've noticed two 'satellite type' glitches on the tv feed so all in all i guess we'll never know what the problem was!

Dave you did send out the amended cards didn't you? If so the line-ups are ok. EDIT just heard you refer to this morning's provisional ones. That's AWFUL. Hope you got one of the alternative streams on the go. Champions league match underway at 5pm today including a great goal lol.

Quotes from a couple of media articles appeared a short while ago. "During the day, Ruud has been the examination and treatment of their personal physicians in Karlskrona and given the green light to start. Ruud is now in place in Vetlanda and have their doctors for everything to feel safe in the final. A foot is sprained and my neck is sore." "Elit Vetlanda set up with the same team as yesterday, which means that David Ruud defies pain." I guess Vetlanda are hoping that Hampel returns to racing somewhere near his ability.

INJURY UPDATE.......DAVID RUUD DEFIES THE PAIN TO RIDE (that the Swedish media wording not mine lol). So the amended racecard i put up earlier this afternoon should 'hopefully' not need any changes. By the way thanks again to Ghostwalker and Kompa for the heads up with the riding order. I was wondering about that aspect at the time but didn't have the averages on hand. Although if you are wrong i'll sue you lol. AVAILABLE NOW MiniMax Racecards - Swedish Play Offs FINAL 2nd Leg, ELIT VETLANDA Vs. PIRATERNA (WEDNESDAY) http://speedway.manc.../racecards.html
