  1. Thankfully, now when available, Schlein and the No Limits school offer more than just riding at their training schools and Olly Allen with the Poultec education system are getting rider's back to basics of fully understanding their machines, along with riding techniques. Things in the last 2-3 years have improved massively from the previous couple of decades.
  2. Racing accident in July 2015, same injury as Darcy Ward but went unnoticed by many in the Speedway world rather disappointingly. Rather sad also that King's Lynn couldn't be bothered with at least letting the fans know after I'd had a chat with Buster.
  3. You do know he's been in a wheelchair since 2015??
  4. Quite often in recent history the better racing was when Buster hadn't touched the track. Then out comes the tractor, yes, making the track smooth but ends up killing the entertainment.
  5. I still love my Speedway, watch GP's, watch league meetings on TV, watch the Polish - Swedish leagues, and will be taking in meetings away from the AFA. King's Lynn is just a boring place to watch Speedway and the owners contempt for his clubs own fans holds no bounds so he'll earn no more £££'s from me.
  6. See, here's the thing. We want the sport to thrive, again, for the many and not for the few. A free flowing sport with excellent racing and value for money. The people that are toxic to this great sport are the ones that say "If ya don't like it, don't go." Us that don't attend have valid reasons for not doing so. These reasons are ignored, then you'll the usual promoter bullpoop of "support it or lose it" as with many clubs in recent history. The toxic people in Speedway are those that are blinded by passion over reality.
  7. Correct, the parade is deemed the start of the meeting.
  8. Tungate has gone well in the first Aussie Champs round, may be proving his Belle Vue average isn't over inflated. All over Fricke's back wheel pretty much the whole race. If no Iversen, may well be worth a punt.
  9. How low can one be?? An opportunity to just keep quiet but no, you have to stick the nail in further. With that reply, it's very clear what you're implying. You are a very sad individual.
  10. It's either maximum interest or they now realise that the team they have selected is a bit embarrassing compared to the rest of the league. The predicted line-up is certainly of the latter.
  11. Never said he's reached his ceiling did I?? All I said was Fricke will stagnate and Holder and Kurtz will be better than him by the time they're all 25. Nothing stopping Fricke later on doing a Doyle at 30 years old. All I'm saying is for me Fricke has something missing from his game and I can't put my finger on it. It's not his gating either as some are suggesting. Life throws so many objects in front of people and things change in a flash. Just right now, in my opinion, Kurtz and Holder will be better come the ages of 25.
  12. Your a little defensive of your own rider while I have no association to none. It is my opinion Kurtz and Holder will be bigger and better rider's than Fricke by 2021. I've nothing against Fricke, just from what I've seen, the other 2 Aussie's will be better. That's it, opinion.
  13. Jack and Brady are also 22. To suggest they'll not be better than Fricke is also ridiculous.
  14. This is Speedway and Ford has already lost sponsors, can he afford to bin another off for speaking what actually many people are thinking?!? This country does not need these people, send em back.
  15. I know Fricke is currently ahead, hence why I said he'll fall behind Holder and Kurtz, over the coming years. Fricke has that feel of a rider that will not progress much further and stagnate, that's why I compared him to Masters.
  16. I don't think Max will make the grade on the World stage. I think he'll fall behind both Brady Kurtz and Jack Holder. Can't put my finger on it but I just think Fricke just has that little bit of magic missing from his locker. Put him in the same bracket as Sam Masters
  17. 2 weeks ago nobody was allowed to say if they were in the King's Lynn team or not until the club decide so, you should know that.
  18. Neil has just poo pooed it so that rumour has been sorted swiftly
  19. There we go, sorted, total nonsense @Racin Jason 72
  20. Thought this should be posted here and to get any comment from Neil Watson. Silence will speak volumes.
  21. You'll know if the rumour has legs or not if Neil Watson doesn't discredit it in the coming days on here.
  22. I'd be ok with that as I agree with him. If they can't be taken back to the French coast they should be left at sea or put on a plan back to where they originated from. This is a country that can't look after it's own homeless people, we shouldn't be taking on others until our own house is in order.
  23. It's amazing how blinkered the sycophants are on here. The issues at King's Lynn and Speedway as a whole are very real. The 2019 season is a $#!+ or bust year for Buster. King's Lynn just offer the bare minimum in the Speedway experience. Pay your money, play abysmal music at volume 11, deliver poor racing. Then go home. Apart from the Play-Off Semi, which meeting had any atmosphere of real excitement?? The press releases are appalling with comments consisting of absolute lies. In this off season, King's Lynn has been none existent while pretty much every other club has been loud and proud at least once every couple of weeks. King's Lynn is run badly, and this Brundle fella who was brought in to improve all aspects of commercial side seems to be just picking up extra pocket money without really delivering. From him, I was expecting something along the lines of Glasgow and Isle Of Wight in promoting the club, but no. For promoting Speedway, King's Lynn is one of the worst up and down the country for the whole Speedway experience. That is a fact
  24. I don't think webbo was meaning the results as such, more the quality of racing, general entertainment and presentation wasn't that good. The club did mess up at the end with the insistence of using Ellis which backfired spectacularly.
