No surprise reading this. No one  suitable available.. You either get moaned at for postponing it, or people want the club fined for fielding an under strength team..

Why should there be any sanctions?  It's not their fault they have a number of injuries, and there isn't much choice for guests.

Let's hope it's not financial. Buster won't be able to pay as King's Lynn is overbudget

I'm sure the powers that be don't want to loose another club, so hopefully what ever it is it won't hurt us to much in the pocket.

Match should be forfeit and not rearranged with the points awarded

Financial penalty might be straw that breaks camel’s back. Morris making fool of himself by talking about penalties in such circumstances. What does he suggest kings  Lynn do?. A vastly under-strength Stars team wouldn’t attract a crowd and put Kings Lynn in an even bigger mess. Not a good advert for having someone independent running things.

Of course it should and would be in a real sporting event. But as we all know speedway isn't....when riders cba to ride in the British Final , what hope to race in a league meeting....

Were Redcar given the option of postponing their match at Sheffield in 2017?

[Due to injury Redcar's announced line up contained six guests and r/r]

Perhaps some people would have more sympathy if dubious calls hadn’t happened in the past - yes I no this call off is for real but in the past there been some very dodgy call offs notably  the pit gate incident. Ipswich should be awarded the points but then that’s unfair on season ticket holders .

Certainly don’t sound happy “no question about that”.

I'm sure a partial refund to the 40 or 50 people affected could be easily arranged. Would save Bluster a packet too compared with running thd meeting.......
