Don't know how true it is, heard at Poole tonight, Tobias Thompson in for Ben Cook 

That is very true 👍🏻 Tobias Thomsen and Zach Cook are guesting for Nicolai Klindt and Ben Cook plus we’re doing R/R for Jan Kvech

Klindt has insisted he is riding (facebook post)

Yes when he posted that Facebook post he hadn’t been picked in the team by his Polish team… but now they’ve changed their minds and he has been picked, it’s just being kept quiet so fans still travel to Leicester

No need to brag.

That is a shocking team.Just when Lynn were hitting a bit of form the injury jinx strikes again.Think we have only had our seven together for about 2 or 3 matches.Oh well looks like I may have to watch the women's football tonight now😏

ben cook has said in a recent interview that there was nothing wrong with the track the night he broke his wrist so stop making stuff up

meanwhile dickson freely admitted to preparing his track differently at the expense of entertainment for the lynn a fixture 

not to mention the sh it show when the young stars rode at leicester

pretty unforgivable imo 

give me a bit of grip over a dustbowl any day

No need to make anything up when TV evidence clearly showed the reality of the situation. 
And for my edification, where/when did Dickson “freely admit to preparing the track at the expense of entertainment”?

How can everybody on here know the situation yet Leicester still publish a press release? And then less that 24 hours later publish another release with the actual teams... the Sport really doesn't help itself at times! It's almost as if they don't know what they're doing 🤷‍♂️

Good point. Where have Leicester got Lynn’s line up from? Hope I’m wrong but this points to both clubs attempting to cover up for a depleted Stars line up until the eleventh hour. But then again this British speedway and everything will be fine. The Stars will rock up  with a full strength team to produce a close and entertaining contest where spectators will witness more passes than a village idiot on Mastermind.

From when Lynn submitted it to the BSPA 72 hours before the meeting one would imagine.

You have to wonder what the value (point) is in declaring your team 72 hours before the meeting if there is then no sanction for then changing that line-up with no further Speedway injuries incurred in that time... I assume it's just for Programme printing purposes, not a great look though

I cannot believe Speedway promoters would do that,..:o;)

It strikes me as farcical that nicolai can be recalled to Poland  after 

A )initially not being in the team

B )  signing for his Polish team after the season started,  surely that should give GB priority on what is 

C) supposedly " our " night

What is the point of having fixed nights if we have to give up priority?

Thursday is not "our night" though... that's when Mr Morris has to step in and try and negotiate

I know for a fact the Stars management team weren’t happy that the Lions published our team along with theirs. As that was never going to be our lineup 🤷🏻‍♂️ they should have published their team and then just put “Stars lineup to follow”, or something like that

They may as well have put Terry Betts, Michael Lee, Ian Turner etc. etc.

It was either incompetence or just laziness to not state there were major doubts about 3 of the KL riders

It was him who agreed the change wasn't it? 

Wasn't it done so Poland would let "their riders" ride over here?

Which would then mean the thousands that still follow the sport, but either don't attend at all, or still do so but infrequently, would all flock back into the stadiums around the nation and only have to pay circa fifty quid per couple for the privilege..  ...!!:rolleyes:

what were Leicester supposed to do though? Just because were dragging our heels trying to get a side (if you can call it that) together. Leicester need to promote something.
