with a testimonial on My 27th Wishful thinking, honey. You say that, precious, but there is some form of celebration to mark PePe's ten years as an Indian on May 27th, 2010. And PePe has announced a number of riders who will be racing in the meeting. They are: Hans Andersen, Rune Holta, Fredrik Lindgren, Grzegorz Walasek, Rafal Dobrucki, Adrian Miedzinski, Jonas Davidsson, Tomasz Jedrzejak and Indianerna legend Henrik Gustafsson. More names are expected to be announced soon: www.sportowefakty.pl/zuzel/2009/05/21/pierwsze-nazwiska-na-liscie-turnieju-piotra-protasiewicza-z-/The meeting will be sponsored by, not surprisingly, Pental.

I was referring to your typo which implied this was to happen on your 27th birthday, sweets.

Despite the worst economic crisis in 80 years, Sweden is reporting that on the whole, average attendances are slightly up on last year. The greatest individual team increase has been for Indianerna, closely followed by Piraterna (word must have got out about Balinski's genius), with attendances falling mainly for Lejonen and Rospiggarna.

Thank you.
The transfer window opened today, and Rospiggarna's Lubos Tomicek has become a casualty, as Lejonen's Sebastian Ulamek replaces him.

the big question is what team Zagar will ride for. I know both Rospiggarna and Piraterna offered him a contract but apparently Zagar rejected them as "not enough pay" contracts. I think Indianerna are interested as well but i dont know if there are more clubs that are interested.
*edit* it is not unlikely that Lejonen will bring in Lewis Bridger during the transfer window.

following the past weeks controversies regarding track preparations, the 9 team managers from Elitserien will have a meeting with the referees on Wednesday. In this meeting they will discuss how the referees and team managers can make agreements about the tracks in the future. There are suggestions to ban all riders on the track before and during the meetings to prevent individuals from affecting track personnel. The only riders that would allowed on the tracks are team captains, race directors and referees. Smedernas Team Manager Bo Jansson says that today's riders are to spoiled when it comes to the track and they only seems to be able to ride when the track is like a parquet floor. Smederna have been affected by this two home meetings in a row when the referee first have approved the track only to change his mind when riders from the visiting team approaches him with complaints. Last week it was GP stars Rune Holta and Gregorz Walasek didn't like the track and successfully managed to get the referee to agree to their requests. Causing an one hour delay despite the grading Smederna managed to win with 8pts. In this weeks meeting last weeks delay in combination with poor weather caused the spectators to stay home. Only 1400 made their way out he the track which is very alarming for Smedernas economy. Visiting team Rospiggarna's two star riders Greg Hancock and Ryan Sullivan were not happy with the track since they considered it to be too much dirt on the track. The referee then changed his mind and ordered a grading of the track removing ALL dirt on the track. The track then became super slick and very suitable to miss Ryan Sullivan and not so suitable to the home team's riders. This most likely resulted in that Smederna only managed a tie against Rospiggarna on a track that only had one line. There were also some issues between Indianerna and Piraterna this wee regarding the track. My opinion is firm and clear when the home team's captain says the track is in the shape they want it the Referee and the visiting team should accept it, folket.se/sportfolket/speedway/1.378944
