King's Lynn Stars 2014


Recommended Posts

Lynn need to find a replacement for Schlein before his average drops too much, He's currently at 6.84 and there are tons of options to replace the under-performing Aussie.

 

Michael Jepsen Jensen - 6.54 and would guarantee Lynn a Top 2 finish, A tantalizing prospect If he forms a trio with danish counterparts Iversen and Bjerre.

 

Greg Walasek - 6.24 and again would be a powerful 3rd heat-leader, A sensational rider and would fly around the Norfolk Arena

 

1. Iversen

2. Porsing

3. Jepsen Jensen

4. Lambert

5. Bjerre

 

How scary does that look?

YOU scare me! :lol: I'm not in the slightest bit surprised that you've included that other Danish rider (who no longer races over here!)

it made my life much easier CR

Top right under your name a box will open with ignore preferences.

Just type its (many) names in and there posts will be hidden.

You will still see they have posted but thankfully you dont have to read them.

Thats how i find the likes of the multi poster, Internetman/PooleQuay and similar foul mouthed posters much more tolerable. :t:

Cheers Steve.

Multi-poster!...."Foul Mouthed" :rofl:

 

Anyone seen "internetman" on here since last April 2013!

 

You run off again now steve and keep me on ignore because clearly I have got to you big time..... I suppose it helps your false and exaggerated sense of self-importance on here to hide away from reading the truth about yourself.

 

I do find it rather ironic though that you go around calling other people "Troll" and "Hypocrite"

 

Ever had a good look in the mirror lately steve? :lol:

 

My apologies to KL fans for taking this thread off-topic.......Unlike stevebrum who does it on a daily basis on other teams threads.

Gutted for Kenneth, he’s been on great form of late for the Stars.

 

Seems like he’s having an op so as to be back in time for the Finnish SGP on Sat May 17.

 

So he will certainly miss;

 

Belle Vue (A) on Monday May 12 (Wolves v Swindon also on same night)

Swindon (H) on Wednesday May 14 (Poole v Lakeside also on same night)

Birmingham (A) on Thursday May 15 (no other EL fixtures that night)

 

Then it’s the Finnish SGP on Saturday May 17.

 

Realistically, will Kenneth ride again after that until the Czech SGP on May 31? If not, he will then miss;

 

Lakeside (A) on Monday May 19 (Belle Vue v Brummies, Wolves v Coventry also on same night)

Poole (H) on Thursday May 22 (Swindon v Leicester also on same night)

Poole (A) on Wednesday May 28 (Brummies v Leicester also on same night)

Coventry (H) on Thursday May 29 (no other EL fixtures that night)

 

Then it’s the Czech SGP on Saturday May 31.

 

Are we able to bring in an EL outsider as a 28 day injury replacement for Kenneth a la Poole/Holder or is that only allowed for No. 1’s? Might be costly too. I’m sure we’ll go down the guest route as we can bring in the likes of Mads, Mikkel Bech, Kildemand etc and we can then bring back Kenneth as soon as he’s ready.

I do hope KB recovers quickly and returns to KL asap rather than riding himself back to fitness abroad for the GPs. But if he does choose to do the latter I hope it provokes as many opinionated posts as the DW/Poole thread - even though it would be perfectly understandable!!! :D

I hope Kenny gets the time to heal fully. I seem to remember he struggled in the early part of last season when he came back from injury. We need a fully fit Bjerre back. Rob, Im sure will be cute enough to get R/R in on a Horse for course basis.

 

Cant see Buster going for a short term replacement. Poole had the advantage with Holder that he was in this Country, but I thought I read somewhere the equipment he has in the UK, isnt all that. Is Tom P still living in the Lynn area ? if so if it fits with his calender then Nicki P might be able to fit us in.

Tom P and family now live in Denmark.

Have included into the above post ( brackets in Red ), possibilities of guest available. Not know if the limitation will allow this to happen, but it does show there are adequate replacements out there.

Not knowing how Buster will react to Kenneth injury but I can't imagine he will let the grass grow before making these tough decisions.

Doyle can't guest can only ride for Leicester.Something do do with his visa I think.

Doyle's Tier 5 visa says he can do a max of 20 hours of additional work per week outside of his usual job (for the duration of the visa) - as long as its of the same/similar level - I think!!

I thought it was made clear he could ONLY ride for one employer - ie Leicester.

As each race only takes a minute and he only gets paid for actually racing he can do 1000s of guest bookings then :P

Yep Doyle would be appropriate - he owes us for stuffing Ken in the first place :nono:

 

There again if Doyle is available it means Mads is too and I know who'd I'd prefer!

 

Similarly if Kildemand is available so would Bachelor be, and again Troy would be more to my taste.

Are those choices based on entertainment as the other 2 would be better choices for race wins?

You're probably right - I'd just prefer to see ex-Stars guesting if possible. Mads would certainly put the effort in, and Troy could potentially score well.

 

Pity that Darcy is injured cos he'd be my first choice!

Injured or not, Darcy's average is far too high to guest!!!!

I reckon every team in the league should have a Kildemand. He would put plenty of people on the gate, just for the sheer excitement of seeing him ride.
