Absolutely ridiculous, being punished for being ill! 

One assumes somebody somewhere took the Mickey at some point with a rider being 'ill' and the rule was brought in to stop it happening thereafter.

I think this rule was brought in to stop riders and/or team managers pulling a fast one when said rider was due to ride at a track where he was rubbish - By putting in a 7 day ban it effectively means the rider will miss out on other meetings -

RR for Ully, Riss for Bjarne and Flint for Palin on Thursday at Ippo

Still think we will be competitive with this team.  Bjarne only got 6 last time at Ipswich, Riss got 8 for KL. Palin scored 0 so Flint cannot do any worse and we have Hans, Scott, Bomber and MPT to take Ulrich's rides.

Flint is a good call, decent form right now

probably have to wait for a rider to finish commitments in Poland for the new signing

This is Bjarne we are talking about he has never taken the pee when it comes to riders skipping meetings!! It is still ridiculous. Bit like when schools suspend you for skipping classes. If the cause is riders picking to miss meetings then they aren't gonna be that bothered. Will hurt club more tbh esp if it is a must win meeting.

Thought they had to be declared  by 28th if that’s the case a new rider should be riding Thursday unless the old special dispensation comes into play

Maybe Peterborough have a double move submitted for the Play Offs with a higher average replacement for Ulrich and Another rider dropping out of the team

How?

The deadline was the 28th. Any changes would have to be part of the declared side for Thursday

If they are not declared for this week then they can't be at all this season (unless of course the regulations are simply ignored - again)

On the contrary it has been known for clubs to tell a rider to be sick when approaching a must win match if said rider was rubbish at that track - Try looking at this situation objectively and without your Poole hat on - The management have to treat all riders the same - They cannot be seen to be favouring riders - For what it is worth I do not think Bjarne Pedersen has acted inappropriately -

I'm surprised wolves management haven't had a word with flint and asked not to take the booking.
