It can if you want it too…

I would imagine in line with the rest so: £15 full £13 concessions

Aces will do a lot better than what they did against Ipswich, so I expect a close Belle Vue win. I’ll stick my cock on the block and go 48-42. BVA 1. Kurtz - 14 (5) 2. Blodorn - 5 (4) 3. Lidsey - 8 (4) 4. Z Cook - 4 (4) 5. Bewley - 11 (5) 6. Zischke - 4 (5) 7. Mulford - 2 (3) Total - 48 KLS 1. B Cook - 5 (4) 2. Klindt - 7 (4) 3. Kvech - 8 (5) 4. Iversen - 5 (4) 5. Lawson - 6 (4) 6. Harris - 10 - (6) 7. Boughen - 1 (3) Total - 42

In Ipswich’s defence, I think at that point in time Dan T had made it into the main body of the team and Rew and Jenkins were at reserve, at which point the rules become very skewed for protecting the RS. It would have been the same situation for King’s Lynn last year after Anders Rowe made it out of the reserves and Lewis Kerr replaced him. Fortunately, Anders didn’t miss any meetings and was riding better than Kerr and Wojdylo so didn’t need to be replaced.

I think Rob wanted to keep the 2 Danes together with their styles complementing each other. With that being said, Klindt has looked off it to start the season. I guess it’s hard when statistically all the boys are similarly matched, it’s cherry picking the lineup depending on the opponent. Whoever we have in the middle order against BV shouldn’t struggle too much, it’s realistically only heats 13 and 15 we may have some issues and whenever Lemon decides to put Brady or Dan in for a T/S

Kurtz and Bewley have always looked good around Lynn. Lidsey should do ok, but don’t see enough in the rest of the BV team to trouble Lynn that much. I’ll go with a 52-38. I assume we’ll go with the same order as we did at home last week against Oxford. KLS 1. Cook - 6 (4) 2. Kvech - 10 (5) 3. Klindt - 7 (4) 4. Iversen - 8 (4) 5. Lawson - 6 (4) 6. Harris - 12 (6) 7. Boughen - 3 (3) Total - 52 BVA 1. Kurtz - 11 (6) 2. Blodorn - 4 (3) 3. Lidsey - 6 (4) 4. Cook - 3 (4) 5. Bewley - 9 (5) 6. Zischke - 4 (5) 7. Mulford - 1 (3) Total - 38

I think Oxford will sneak it, but Lynn have done enough in the first leg to make it through untroubled. 48-42 (85-95). OXS 1. Tungate - 10 2. Riss - 5 3. Wright - 8 4. Kildemand - 6 5. Janowski - 11 6. Gusts - 6 7. Killeen - 2 Total - 48 KLS 1. Cook - 6 2. Lawson - 7 3. Klindt - 6 4. Iversen - 5 5. Kvech - 7 6. Harris - 9 7. Boughen - 2 Total - 42

No streaming options unfortunately

Could be worse, you could be Drew Kemp at the Media Day walking around in Craig Cook’s suit…

Maybe in Poland with Krakow?

What are everyone’s early predictions for this one? I’ll go with a 51 - 39. Scorers below: KLS 1. Cook - 7 2. Klindt - 8 3. Iversen - 6 4. Kvech - 9 5. Lawson - 10 6. Harris - 9 7. Boughen - 2 OS 1. Tungate - 8 2. Riss - 5 3. Wright - 7 4. Kildemand - 5 5. Janowski - 11 6. Gusts - 2 7. Killeen - 1

The real winners today though… the tractor racing fans

Just seen that they have bangers on Saturday night (15th), no doubt that will mean the track won’t be 100% for Niels’ testimonial on Sunday…

I was at the Lattice House over Christmas - unless it’s shut again since? I could swear when I walked past recently it was still open, could be wrong though

The Lattice House in the town centre is a good option; also Bank House or Marriotts Warehouse along the quay

As much as I want to dream that this can happen it’s going to require a lot of things going our way this season: We will require Kvech or Cook to step up and be a genuine No.1 home and away Will have to get a lot of meetings done by Heat 13 as there could be a 12-point swing in the final 3 heats (using a T/S in ht 14) No injuries which is becoming an all too familiar trend. And if we do get an injury a replacement is brought in immediately of equal strength Winning every home meeting (even against Ipswich), which theoretically should be possible with the team we have, as they all enjoy the AFA Not getting absolutely pumped away from home and keeping it competitive to ensure we pick up more aggregate points than we lose If we’re going to push Ipswich, realistically that means we’re going to have to finish 2nd or 3rd in the league. If we finish 4th, Ipswich will just dump us out in the semis

What do we think the format and standard/lineups for Puk’s testimonial will be? It would be great to see him get some big names over considering his standing in the sport - but can’t see that happening, unfortunately. I’ll go with a King’s Lynn Stars Select vs Denmark for the format. Standard league match format. My guess at lineups would be: KLSS 1. R Lambert 2. Harris 3. Lawson 4. B Cook 5. Janowski 6. Kerr 7. Boughen Denmark 1. Iversen 2. Jeppessen 3. Jepsen Jensen 4. Klindt 5. Kildemand 6. Borke 7. Knudsen

Apologies - I did misread your post and thought you meant a Bank Holiday double header. Please excuse my ignorance

The Lynn away meeting at Ipswich, yes. There is no mention of the reverse fixture as a ‘double header’.

I don’t think there is one. I know there was a lot of talk of it taking place, but neither have it on their fixture schedules - unless a separate announcement is going to bed made…

Assuming he comes in on an assessed 4.5?

What do we think the averages of the Brummies team will be for ‘25? If the regulations remain the same as ‘24 then I see it being as this: 1. Musielak - 8.21 2. Jeppessen - 4.5 3. Zagar - 7.2 4. Rew - 5.67 5. Jepsen Jensen - 7.5 6. Voulas - 4.13 7. Edwards - RS Total - 37.21

Tarasenko? Basso? Jakobsen? Can’t see it being anyone who hasn’t already rode in the UK recently. Season is 2 months away and organising logistics, visas, starting permissions etc isn’t a 5 minute job
