justspeedway

Am really looking forward to this one, don't attend KL NL meetings normally but def do when the yanks are in town! Should be awesome!

Jonathan has said before that things are going well, and even if ticket sales were down a bit Lynn would still be ok. There is a good crowd at Lynn (not on sky though we easily missing at least 1/3 of crowd when they show up!), seriously though it the best crowd we have had in a few years now and they know the PL got stale and the fans got bored, this year has been incredible for us with the EL boys you get some cracking racing and awesome skills - on our track anyway ;-) . The Chapmans are very good business men, like for instance using riders based in the UK they are saving themselves a fortune on air travel etc, I could well be wrong but I think our stay in the EL will be a little bit longer yet... only thing that will change that will be if very very stupid ideas are passed at the AGM in regards to the EL. The Chapmans will do whatever is best for the club and I respect that and will always follow the Stars! Regarding more assets lets see if anything happens after the Pride of the East but mainly there probably will be activity during the silly season. Anywwwo I'll leave it there after all this is a Witches thread.

So glad your coming back to KL ! looking forward to it!

I could be making this up but isn't Mason Campton coming over to the Uk for a lil while very soon, if he is riding surely he could be an option (as I say, I could have just made that up, but I thought I read it somewhere).

Totally agree Bagpuss - nail on head!

I am quite excited about the possibility of EL speedway at Lynn next year, though can understand peoples opinions and wanting to stick with PL which has been right for us so far. But personally I quite like the changes being made, I think it will make the EL and PL much closer which is what the sport needs. I think the EL won't have as strong riders, so costs should be slightly lower therefore making a meeting between a EL or PL team much closer. I also think with the changes there is slightly less chance of one team running away with the league or making crafty changes etc. I think it has somewhat been blown out of proportion because Peterborough and Coventry have taken a disliking to it, which has gone far too long and too deep much to the annoyance of most of this countries speedway community. These ongoings also make the EL even more of a NO GO then before...even though the changes appear quite good! IMO anyway

I totally agree AJH, personally think EDP have it wrong and have just guessed thats what it means, I think it will be regarding EL or PL. Buster I think will always have a fan forum as he likes to hear what we have to say

According to the EDP Lynn will announce their septet monday...... http://www.edp24.co.uk/sport/kings-lynn-stars/king_s_lynn_poised_to_announce_2011_line_up_1_739160

Oops the message (above) when posted frooze then upon refresh it doubled! hence this post in its place

This is getting annoying now, why are people so inpatient? Lynn have said by the end of the week we will find out "team news" this obviously ties in with the statement regarding the Elite League future in the next 48 hours. So they are probably finalising the elite league and finding out what clubs are going to be competing ....so to find out early or getting a statement early just isn't going to happen. As to people telling Buster and Co what to do.........fair enough you want to voice your opinion but look what Buster has done for the club, if you can't agree he has done a brilliant job for us then you need a slap with a herring. Buster himself has said he would not go in the Elite league unless it changed dramitically or the club was sold, he would not put the club in jeopardy! So maybe something has changed which he is now happy with or there has been a large money incentive - right now I think we just have to be patient and have faith in Busters decision..... I am a STARS fan and will support them as much as I can, whatever league they race in.

quote from King's Lynn Stars on facebook "have allowed Lasse Bjerre to fufill his wishes of becoming a Peterborough rider alongside his brother, thankfully as part of the negotiations Lasse still wishes to ride for the Stars for at least one more season "

Wouldn't surprise me now!! Diamond fans have been expecting it in a while now!

Haha do we know for sure now that Lasse will def be a Star in 2011?

seeing that we are losing assets all over the place wouldn't mind seeing Austin Novatril signed up, a very talented young yank who will turn 16 just before the season starts
