Patel needs to sign it off but she is too busy arguing with Tyrone Mings. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The constant sniping at anything associated with Poole Speedway brings out the worst. Kindergarten mentality. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The paper work may well be taking longer than Poole would like/expected but I don't think that's a reason to ignore the rules. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haven't Leicester just signed Jake Knight temporarily for the same reason? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Given that Jake Knight is available and looking for a team place perhaps neither Leicester or Poole should have their paperwork for a new foreign rider ratified until he is signed up somewhere.......

Zaine kennedy is awaiting 'elite sportsman' status from the Aussie authorities before being allowed to get a visa and exit Australia. Smetana is simply a Brexit/Covid paperwork issue around travelling with the necessary vaccination/testing paperwork required by different European countries.
