Since Leicester were already due, could they not have run a Poole (using 5 Lynn riders) vs Leicester match for the Jubilee League instead? :rofl:

At King's Lynn, like we do for all of our finals? :D

I had a look at Sportowefakty and they published this date on 25 JANUARY.

That's 14, yes FOURTEEN weeks.

If this was such a problem for King's Lynn why didn't Buster do something about it in February, or March, or even April?

Spot on Arnie and I guess the answer is that as a consequence of Patryk Wojdylo scoring 17+1 last Thursday Buster is less confident about guest cover!

I'd agree with you if he changed the date 4 weeks ago & announced a new date at the same time.

That would have been much more professional for postponing at short notice for being "under strength".

If as soon as the Polish meetings were announced he put out a new date, explaining the dates were swapped so they'd have a full team, I think people would've been more understanding.

you mean he didn't expect a Polish reserve to score 18 points ......

Chapman is toxic for the sport and anyone who cant see this needs to give their heads a wobble.

and 100% unavailable as known for at least the past four weeks!

It turns out the Polish federation actually announced these dates at the tail end of January - so it shouldn’t be a big surprise to anybody.

Conspiracy theory.

Did Alex Brady get what he was owed in court to a point where Buster is on the brink financially?????

Buster needs to be punished even if it means King's Lynn withdrawing from the league.........They can easily be replaced anyway because everyone knows deep down that Godfrey would move Scunny up to the Prem in order to save the TV deal.

In which case Lynn really haven't got a leg to stand on, and why on earth was the original rained off fixture rearranged for that date?

With the riders that are not racing on Thursday and those that only race championship (Simon lambert) buster could have got 2 guests and arguably fielded a stronger side that what he has anyway,

So who is available that would be better than Musie? Harris, Tungate, Brennan, nope none of them are better… and who is available that would be better than Wojdylo? Si Lambert, Riss, C.Cook, nope none of them would be better!

so your comment about fielding a stronger side is so wrong, way off the mark

I think people are getting over excited about Wojdylo he rode very well last week but it's just one meeting.

If Woj was that good he wouldn't be riding at reserve!

You know it doesn't quite work that way. 

For few home meetings he had at Peterborough he had a near 6 average. The few home meetings he's had at King's Lynn he has a near 8 average.

He's massively important to King's Lynn to get results at home. Without him it's certain defeat.

So he should be riding in the main body of the team at home? It doesn't really work like that either. The sport is run on "averages"

AND if Leicester are that good they won't mind facing a full strength KL side!!  (but after last season we know they are desperate for points no matter how they get them) :D

Even with any of the guests at reserve mentioned above, they should still make light work of Kemp and Hagon around Lynn... let's not forget Woj only scored 2 points against Belle Vue

You questioned the importance. When Wojdylo has a near 8 average at home, as reserve, able to take 7 rides it's very very clear his importance. 

No guest could cover that loss.

Stupid comparison. King's Lynn don't need Wojdylo to look after the opposition reserves. Wojdylo is needed to deal with opposition 2nd strings & heat leaders because the current middle order is appalling to deal with it themselves. 

At home, while at reserve (which he currently won't be next month) Wojdylo is AAAAAAABSOLUUUUUUUUUUTELY MAAAAAAAAAAAASSIVELY important to King's Lynn winning their home meetings. 

Surely you understand that, no???
