That’s the reason for the call off then. Absolute cheats. AGAIN.7 points

Hardly anyone outside the few thousand who follow the sport would even notice if he came back into Speedway... It isn't like any return would drive tens of thousands away... As that has already been done by others down the years... And if anyone wants to make a stand by not going should any convicted criminal be riding then let them.... Plenty more will still turn up regardless of his presence.... And, if we are now only allowing ex cons to do certain jobs, why should others then be made to work with them? Other "labourer's" in your scenario may not want him there with them for example... Therefore, what jobs does society say ex cons can do without someone having a protest? The bottom line is hardly anyone in this country has heard of Speedway, let alone Jason Garrity...7 points

He did wrong & was punished in a court of law. His sentence was to serve 7 years in prison, due to good behavior he was released early only serving half his time. He now wants to return to normal life & that includes racing speedway. I'm not Judge or Jury but I am willing to give him time & space to prove he can be a valid member of the speedway community6 points

I wish Vadim Tarasenko all the best. Hopefully Vadim quitting will burn a big hole in Buster's pocket once attendances drop after a few more batterings.4 points

At a guess his machinery’s gone to pot and he’s probably not got connections or money to sort it out. Also explains why KL called Sheffield meeting off4 points

Such a shame to see Buster and King's Lynn struggling. Has he sold Panthers yet btw?3 points

The sport which has the most offers and offers them continuing employment is football. Yet every week people pay to watch rapists, drug cheats, wife beaters who steal a living through the sport.3 points

I still don't understand the call-off. The weather was lovely, you can't just ignore one forecast & pick the one that suits you best. They had Lawson & Brennan lined up as guests, r/r for Tarasenko allows every rider an extra ride, so there was no reason to call it off due to the teams strength. If there was no facility for Tarasenko or Zmarzlik was his replacement I could understand the ruse, but still condemn it. But if King's Lynn are planning to call off every match when they may lose, they'll hardly get any speedway raced!2 points

Not a problem- advantage is all with the punters who can if they want to watch qualifying, see how quick each are, whereas i have to put up the spread a week before and it’s all about intuition and enticing the punters to have a bet on a particular rider. most punters back more but figures show it’s a better bet to back less- here endeth the lesson on spread betting !2 points

Because you can’t just call meetings off at the drop of a hat. Every man and his dog knew on Monday that no rain was forecast so why call the meeting off? They probably knew on Sunday or Monday Tarasenko wouldn’t be returning the kl promotion are a joke.2 points

Well I can tell you that according to the KL website and facebook it's 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Perhaps there is some uncertainty over NKI and Basso?2 points

I don't see why speedway riders must be holier than thou, to be riders. I'm pretty sure many riders have a 'back catalogue' or skeletons in their cupboard. Many boxers have skeletons and back catalogues. I do understand speedway promoters getting worried about the affect on their gates. On the other hand, he might be a draw.

max James falls when Hagon fell off trying to avoid him.That’s a shocking decision by the ref what does he want him to do run him over. Standard of refereeing this year has been nothing short of a disgrace.1 point

As fans, there's no point quoting rules. Teams have signed riders on the day of a meeting & raced that evening before. Teams will do what suits their situation best, they ALL do it, every single one. 100% if Sheffield needed a win at home & Woffinden got his a$$ stuck in the toilet they'd call off the meeting due to an unfavourable weather forecast. This isn't new, but because King's Lynn always find themselves in the s#!t week in week out, year in year out, shady call offs will happen more regularly. Although a sport, they too will have to try & protect their business. Getting whacked at home every week will not help them survive. No defender of Buster at all but fans need to understand the predicament teams at the bottom face. The league can't afford anymore clubs going under, it's a real risk right now for King's Lynn. Closer than you think.1 point

Any objection should focus on the fact that it is a “retrospective “ application, and that if it is allowed, then in effect the planning department is rendered redundant, as anybody can build what they like and then apply for “retrospective “ planning.1 point

As has already been stated, it is not the bottom league of Poland at all. The standard is actually very good and features several Premiership ‘stars’ in the league like Kurtz, Holder, Tungate, Klindt, Musielak etc to just a few, plus Grand Prix rider Kai Huckenbeck. Because he wasn’t good enough first time around, Luke Becker has just been dropped by his team over there too - that shows you the type of standard that it is.1 point

They would of loved a track as dry as this to work with on Monday morning. The rain has arrived 24 hours late, at 11am today.1 point

I agree. Should be awarded 0-75 everytime there is a call off like this where the meeting could unquestionsbly gone ahead. Promoters doing this kills people's enthusiasm. Someone should have gone there yesterday to investigate it. We might have a situation where Jason Doyle misses a match through no fault of his own and gets a fine or a ban yet promoters can do this.1 point

It’s disheartening to see the lack of interest in the NL these days. It’s come from dumbing down the league for years and years. Why would fans be as excited about an inferior product?1 point
