Klindt is not a number 5, not in a million years... Charles Wright is unattached, when he's fit to return, he's not the answer though, Luke Becker? One of the ex-gp riders? Wozniak, Michelsen, Vaculik, Janowski, Huckenbeck... Tungate, Nilsson, Thorsell, DJ Woffy... all the usual suspects. None of them are going to set the world alight but are more likely than not going to score more that the 2 or 3 points that Klindt is currently offering. Klindt did this a couple of years back when he got binned off by Oxford, or was it Lynn, or did he go from Oxford to Lynn, can't remember, but I remember him saying at the time he can't set his bikes up during the colder early months... which I commented at the time was not great to hear from somebody with so much experience... but here we are again.

Suspected broken collarbone

On form, this season, DT is 2nd in the averages on 6.44 (not including tonight) officially he's 4th ahead of Morris and Kemp. He may not even have broken his collarbone, apparently he was saying he thought he had but the medics were saying they didn't think he had... Mr Dickson said he should get it x-rayed. I thought Gilkes wasn't too bad this evening, he didn't get the points but was on the pace and in the thick of the action, not bad after nearly a year out. I don't trust much to luck, good or bad, if riders keep getting injured it's for a reason, much like riders whose machinery keeps letting them down.

Suspected broken collarbone for DT

Much like Birmingham, for the last couple of years, they're a rider short, everybody is riding a place above where they should be... there's no way on this earth that Nicolai Klindt is a PL number 5!

Northamptoningham basically fielded a Championship level team tonight and despite almost staging a bit of a mid meeting comeback probably would have failed to beat Scunthorpe on tonight's evidence.

... or carry on as we are 👉🙄👈

Delayed cleaning his bikes? Or finishing off plastering a ceiling somewhere 😂

Northamptoningham haven't brought the thousands of fans that they had last week with them 😂

Says R/R on updates 🤷‍♂️

Radio silence from Northamptoningham regarding Zagar... they catch on fast 😁

I'd give him a refund 😂

Cairns is poor, yet to win a race at PL level this year, there are far better RS's available

In the right mood Klindt and Zagar could have got 40 between them... or 2! Flint would probably be the better bet over Cook

Anywhere but Leicester he would...

Zagar just withdrawn from the Belle Vue meeting with an ankle injury

BVTV interviewer asking Klindt if he's going to make any changes... thank goodness 👏

They didn't start the parade until 12:03 Now waiting for the paramedic dealing with somebody in the crowd... 2 mins on now

Why can Belle Vue never start on time?

2 points to us then 👍🏻

Should be straight forward for the Lions but then I thought that against Birmingham last season and they turned us over... could Northamptoningham do the same?

Etheridge at BV earlier in the day, which is a strange choice, so Sedgy should be fresh at least.

LEICESTER: Ryan Douglas, Dan Thompson, Nick Morris, Kyle Howarth, Sam Masters, Drew Kemp, Dan Gilkes. NORTHAMPTON: Jaimon Lidsey, Troy Batchelor, Matej Zagar, MPT, Nicolai Klindt, Kye Thomson, Luke Harrison.

Yes, I saw that maybe he saw the kick coming out of his peripheral vision?

I think it stems back to when the local organisers used to be responsible for track prep and ballsed it up on a couple of occasions. With the FIM (fireman Phil) being responsible for it and under their specific control they have nobody else but themselves to blame, if they want to do it that way it'd probably be better to have a recognised track curator travelling with the circus to oversee track prep, Andy Meredith for example.
