Enter Phil Morris

Not for LOWER league speedway... which is where Poole are languishing 😁

But Klindt missed meetings for Plymouth on a Saturday when his Polish club was riding on Sunday, there isn't an international agreement for that is there? Other than riders having to attend SGP practice.

Plymouth have no priority over Poland, and that includes time to get there he's not got a private jet

Looks like they have priority on a Friday as well, with Poole missing Rowe last Friday, won't be long before it's Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday 

The problems usually mainly arise with rearranged rain offs etc. A massive amount of work has gone on between GB and Poland to try and coordinate things as much as possible so there are few clashes. Indeed Poland have had to cancel fixtures this week to allow for the Premiership KO Cup final on Thursday, so it does work both ways but nobody ever mentions that...

Poland have no priority over Plymouth when there is no meeting on in Poland... or have I missed something? I'll happily stand corrected if you can show me something I've missed. I know he's not got a private jet, though I do know Polish clubs have arranged for private flights to enable riders to get to meetings in the past. I've posted a number of options that would have allowed Klindt to ride in both meetings on the Plymouth vs Oxford thread, just like many other riders seem to manage. You seem to think it's okay for riders contracted to ride for British clubs to drop them to enable travel time to meetings, just like you think it's okay for riders to ride in Poland fit, while not to ride in the UK due to injury.

Wasn't the fixture they had to cancel a rearranged fixture? Or was that the Monday fixture?

With any final it could pull up a few surprises . Lions are the favourites based on league position and previous encounters but I think Lynn needs every rider to click at once for them to win on aggregate. We know Kemp and Joe T will not score many but the lions have currently the best rider in the league , Douglas and Masters who scored points anywhere along with a great guest in Brennan. I think the Lynn will win by 4 points tonight. Reverse leg Leicester to win by 8. Should be a cracking final

JT has been starting like a demon lately... and managed to hold on to his positions at Sheffield last Thursday

Hopefully Lynn can get a 8-10 point lead to make second leg interesting! 

I think it's going to be a close one. I'm thinking 46-44, but i think the Stars will need  12-14 to take into the 2nd leg to have a fair chance of the aggregate win. But they proved me wrong against Ippo..

Yes I think a Lynn win tonight but not by much, the good thing is no tacticals.
