Also weather will be a factor tonight, a weather system with plenty of rain so we'll be lucky

if we can get through this round without any cancelled meetings.

 

update 16.31, it has started to rain very lightly in Hallstavik.

As mentioned above Vargarna - Elit Vetlanda is postponed due to rain and

the meeting between Dackarna and Piraterna looks a bit doubtful as well.

For that meeting a new decision will be taken at 18.30 Swedish time.

Rospiggarna-Ikaros Smederna and Indianerna-Västervik are still on.

 

Not looking good in Hallstavik either;

Nor in Kumla: https://twitter.com/WMSK_Speedway/status/473862337771094016

The decision in Måilla was to wait another hour but by just looking at the radar images

you can see that the rain probably won't have passed by then.

 

Kumla is also looking more doubtful while there's still hope for the tv-meeting,

Reports from Hallstavik says that it haven't rained that much and that the track can handle some water.

It won't start at 19.15 though, probably closer to 20.00 Swedish time if the meeting will be run tonight.''

 

Indianerna - Västervik is off.

Any ideas about tonight's Swedish match on eurosport? They don't seem to be showing it, correct me if I'm wrong?

[eric i 617]

Any streams?

[Ghostwalker 1,859]

Dunno if it works but there are some geo-unblocking addons for firefox which might allow you to purchase the Swedish stream (cost is around £7). Don't know what they're called though.

 

There will be a decision taken at 19.45, if it still rains at 19.45 (30 min from now) meeting will be postponed.

Målilla decision will be taken at 19.30 (15 minutes from now).

 

Dackarna-Piraterna is off. New date is 23/6. https://twitter.com/DackarnaMalilla/status/473879598284177408

In the greatest Rock n Roll movie ever!! "The Last Waltz" in 1976, Robbie Robertson was discussing a club date The Band

played in their early days in Dallas and he said "There were about 6 people in the audience- and a fight broke out! There weren't enough people to start a fight. " Rather how I feel about speedway supporters. Especially on the International section. There aren't enough of us to start a fight. I've previously posted The Youngbloods "C'mon People Now" as my response to squabbling..... Now 4 Canadians and Levon from Arkansas.
