This match is insane!

Hello from the studio for the final time this season any team changes tonight?

Yes, my Twitter page.

I think I know the answer but will PM you, can put that one out tonight then too.

That is going out as a quiz question in tonight's broadcast, thankyou.

Has a decision been made?

That sounds good hello from the studio.

Please don't shoot the messenger, I only commentate for them.

Both legs of the Playoff Final will be shown live on Freesports

Well if Premier are showing it I have about six minutes to get to the studio in Dublin... (Afraid we aren't this time, see you for the playoff final next week!)

Well I won't be able to fly back to the studio again now...

It still said live until yesterday because CMore hadn't confirmed if the feed would be available or not - sorry for the late notice.

Had it confirmed on arrival at the studio this morning that tonight's Swedish match will not be broadcast - sorry all.

Still no confirmation, sorry.

This is going to go to the last heat and shred my nerves again, isn't it?

I really should not have looked at that during broadcast...

Smederna v Masarna. Picture feed has just come on in the studio - track is still being bladed but if there is no more rain it looks good.

Translation from Smederna's Twitter: "We expect continued with match. It worked with the track ahead of the semifinals. Welcome!"

-sits nervously-

Ta for the confirmation Ghosty - how is the weather looking in Eskilstuna?

Good news - I have been told the live cricket that was to precede the speedway has been called off, so we go ahead live on Freesports at normal time

Hjelmland listed at reserve here - http://www.svemo.se/sv/Grenar/Speedway/Elitserien2017/ Or do you have an updated source?

No Berntzon is a surprise after last night. A change too for Smederna according to SVEMO - Walasek in for Karpov.

I seem to remember Ann Collins rode against Pauline Bastable on one occasion. And yes, Julie Cross, a grass track rider, did indeed ride at Telford in the late 80s.

This season is officially crazy.
