Klint  situation is farcical.No other way too describe it.There should be NO facility for missing riders irrespective of who has priority,the promotions know (or should ask the riders their priority before signing them).IMO

Disappointing there’s no KLINDT. He rides Poole very well and is popular. Should now be a straight forward win, with an eye on the bonus point. Plymouth are now a formidable force around their place.

Agree with the above, but Pirates have been making heavy weather of getting the wins of late. All riders and teams tend to have "off" periods during a season, I'm just hoping that this is  Poole's off period, and that they hit some real form come the sharp end of the season. Would be good to have Anders flying again, Smarte seems like he's sulking a bit not being top reserve, and have Cairnes getting a fews scores too.

While I agree with you, technically when a club gets "no facility" they are allowed a "75% guest". The rulebook should really call it a reduced facility.

The rules should certainly be tougher on riders missing matches to ride in other leagues.

Disagree, why punish the paying public, and the home team with fans refusing to attend. 

It should be R/R and a 28 day ban. 

Your cheating the home fans by having him missing half the season.Like I have said before it’s just a circus nowadays.IMO

A ban is not the answer if the reason is non attendance in the first place. The team has to be penalised.

But if a rider (Klindt) wants to pick & choose his Plymouth meetings, while still riding for Kings Lynn, a ban would stop that.

But a ban wouldn't stop the Ben Cook situation, who would probably prefer a ban so he can carry on ringing in Poland while he's (checks notes) "injured"

I think the Ben Cook situation is crazy, if he couldn't ride in Poland they wouldn't allow him to ride here but as usual nobody cares.

Hope pilots management have got the tape issues fixed, won't want the start marshal to risk his life standing in the safety zone again 😝

Hope comets have sorted there team out, can't afford to lose anymore bonus points
