Oh come on, if Poole were at Worky for example and missing Tom and Ben, you would call off would you? No chance imo. You'd be like 'let's go....' 

 

 

workington have 3 regular team members and a 2 .00 pointer @ reserve  an if puddle turn up at worky with any team member late/missing i am sure no grace will be given .

If that's really him, he needs a fine for that "bringing the sport into disrepute". Not right to tell fans not to spend their money.

Why not encourage fans to go along & enjoy a good match, could still be some good racing between Cook & the top Monarchs, also when the Academy lads meet each other.

If this is his attitude going into the match I would doubt there`ll be and good racing between Cook and anyone else. It will be interesting to see his score and performance, especially as Workington captain, surely he should lead by example.

This could well be a lesson learnt here to give Riders who are based in Britain a chance rather then signing a failed ''Publicity Stunt'', As already said Watson for Liebmann will make no difference score wise.

Can also look at it as poor preparation from Vissing and Liebmann who I’m sure neither were riding anywhere yesterday who could’ve flown in then ahead of tonight’s match then.

28 day bans incoming :lol:

Are there not enough mitigating circumstances though to save them from a ban. Its not as if they could just jump on another flight.

So you think flying in the day before especially if you’re not riding anywhere on the Thursday isn’t a sensible choice? As flights get cancelled on the daily over the world.

You would have thought... if history this season is anything to go by though it very much depends on what your name is rather than the circumstances.

Apparently Leibmann was in London around lunchtime and was due fly up at 13.15 but flight was cancelled. Could she not have got a train up?

Oh shut up. He needs a fine. Blah blah blah. What’s wrong with having an opinion? Supposed to just be a mute and tow the line? Honestly what a time we live in, worlds absolutely nakerd.

Are you joking? Do you know how long that takes lol. You have to go back down to London to make your way back north, stadium would be empty by the time she arrived
