em1500uk Posted October 9, 2010 Report Share Posted October 9, 2010 I think the line up is being put into next weeks meeting programme (v Newport PL) and the start time isn't 3pm, it's now 5pm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
em1500uk Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 No longer on Sunday 17th. It's now been moved to Saturday 23rd October, just so people know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardtobeat Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 No longer on Sunday 17th. It's now been moved to Saturday 23rd October, just so people know Has a reason been given? I'm tired of trying to plan work around speedway and then the date's changed a week before... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehone Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 "Due to the progress of the Young Stars to the KOC final the home match against Newcastle has been moved and also with the large amount of speedway matches around the country on Sunday the Pride Of the East has been re arranged for the following Saturday evening. Wed 13th Stars v Newport 7:30pm Wed 20th Stars v Newcastle 7:30pm Sat 23rd Pride Of The East 7:30pm Wed 27th Young Stars v Buxton KOC Final " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhidassa Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 Oh, joy. So, the meeting is made later, and moved so I probably can't go, since it's the day after my birthday and have other things planned that weeekend. I rarely go to Lynn fixtures and whenever I actually make plans to go, they always seem to be changed, particularly as I invite other friends to bring to speedway. It's hard to ask new speedway fans/first timers to keep changing their plans to go see meetings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crikeythatsfast Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 Great we won't be going to this now as Norwich are playing at home the same day, so they will be an extra 2 people down. I understand why they have changed it, but it's blooming annoying as I was looking forward to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidba Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 Don't suppose they will announce the line up until it's too late to get a reasonable priced train ticket? Mind you 3 trips to Lynn already this year, enough for anyone, they will have to pull some very unlikely names out of the hat to get me along(C'mon Buster get Tommy Stange back over!!). Probably be just the usual Aussies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
em1500uk Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 (edited) Silly thing is, the ELRC and Leigh Adams Farewell have both been on the 16th and 17th October for months, I thought? Why even arrange it for that weekend in the first place? I know stockcars and other events probably make it difficult for the club to slip things into place on certain dates... We won't go unless the line up is good LOL Bad timing putting it on a Saturday when Norwich City are playing (and they're doing well ATM!) so some Stars supporters may well choose to go to the City game instead, like CTF has just said.

westhamboy66 Posted October 12, 2010 Report Share Posted October 12, 2010 Well they may re arrange meetings to boost the crowd but people do plan ahead surprisingly. Make me the third person who'll not go now as I will be at west Ham instead. What happens when you try and be too clever I suppose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, always the problem when dates keep changing. We have paid for our NCFC season tickets already, so we aren't going to shell out for speedway too. Such a shame as I think messing the fans around like this won't do them any favours. Was really looking forward to this meeting, as I would think, many others too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhidassa Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 It's under a week to go... has the full line-up actually been released yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roll on 2011 Not going to the NL KOC final on the 27th?... It's under a week to go... has the full line-up actually been released yet? Not as far as I know, Lorna, no. I'm not expecting a line up until Wednesday. It maybe mentioned in the programme or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhidassa Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 Considering people tend to plan ahead, its better to announce line-ups in advance to give people a chance to decide if it's worth making the trip for. I'm going to try and go Wednesday so will see what prog says. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajh Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 Bit stupid that the line-up hasn't been released yet. Like others have mentioned, I'm at the City v M'boro game on Saturday but will rush back to take in the meeting IF the line-up makes it worthwhile. Not going to rush back and incur the wrath of the Mrs unless it's worth it Bit hard to make that call though when nobody knows who the hell is riding. Kind of sums up our season really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Smith Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 (edited) The obvious ones will be in IMO Kevin Doolan Tomas Topinka Kozza Smith Lasse Bjerre Adam Roynon Olly Allen Chris Mills Maybe add Darren Mallett Simon Lambert Jan Graversen Casper Wortmann Chris Schramm Will be at Rye Or Berwick results from Friday pending Craig Cook Rusty Harrison David Howe Will be at Rye Or Berwick results from Friday pending Adam Allott Outside inclusions could be James Brundle Simon Stead Davey Watt Scott Nicholls Craig Watson Apart from those can't see any of the top EL riders wanting to bother Edited October 20, 2010 by screamer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
