Kings Lynn V's Birmingham Thurs 05/06/14


Recommended Posts

 

Nermark also missing for the 'B' fixture on August 7th too as Valsarna are riding, so I presume we will get fined for that aswell.

 

I have no complaints if we get fined, we shouldnt have agreed to these fixtures in the first place given the poor side we are putting out. Shame the person that should answer to that isn't at the club anymore!

Yeah, a crying shame ;) I'm sure he would've passed all of his underhand tricks onto Jack Lee though...

Why would Birmingham get fined? It's not their fault they are fielding a weakened side, is it??

Nermark missing with no facility will be why they will be fined.

What it basically boils down to is this. The BSPA think that the world, the sun and the stars all the heavens revolve around them. They have no respect for what they call "Mickey Mouse Competitions" in other countries, so if a Swede is contracted to race for a Swedish club in the Swedish league on a day when his English club have their fixture, then that is seen as "dissing" the Elite League. After all, the BRITISH Elite League is all important in the world of speedway. Nothing else matters. So for employing a rider that "disses" the Elite League by riding in his own country in his own league for a team he was contracted to before signing for the Brummies, Birmingham will be fined, and won't be allowed anyone other than a rider from the bottom of the barrel to make up team numbers. Who knows, Nermark may also get a 28 day ban for withholding his services from the most important league in the world, if the BSPA really have a hissy fit about all this.

 

Yes, fine the clubs that are on shoestring budgets and struggling to make ends meet...that'll be sure to ensure their survival. Well done BSPA. Nuking themselves in the foot time after time after time again. Maybe the rest of the promoters will be happy to see Birmingham in the NL next year, or out of business completely.

Thoroughly enjoyable meeting. Score does not relate to some excellent racing. Fantastic race by Robert Lambert to win heat 14. well done stars for breaking record from 1984 by winning 11 matches on the trot.

Yes great stuff from Niklas - well deserved max! :party:

 

Rory looked good too, looked like bike probs after he'd passed King when he lost it again but lucky to finish his next race - looked like his front wheel was about to fall out :shock:

 

Another EF for Niels - hope he gets all them out of the way before any crucial matches, and Ken was flying at the front. Looks like still lacking in confidence when behind tho.

 

Good to see Lewis Rose back, and well done to old boy Simon Lambert for beating team Lewis in ht 9 - he obviously still remembers his way around Lynn. Apart from him and King B'ham had little else to offer - pity Daniel Nermark was missing and of course Zmarzlik as it could've been a tad closer.

 

Ride of the night goes to Robert Lambert , he'd looked slow most of the match but somehow managed to get by both both Brummies in ht14 with sheer determination - excellent stuff :t:

Cliché I know but that ride from Robert in heat 14 was worth the entrance fee alone, along with Niels pass in heat 5 and Rory's in 6.

 

Need to do something a little different and special to celebrate these successes, whatabout a Polish style chant, we know how to do it after the Poles visit early this season, just need someone to start it off with a megaphone!!!!

To the tune of agadoo.....

 

Iversen-sen-sen he is King's Lynn's number 1

Iversen-sen-sen came to ride for Rob Lyon

He is king of our track when he's first out of the trap

When he blasts from the back he makes Barker look so cr4p

Right man, you're on the mega phone!! :-) Well volunteered!! :-)

 

I'll admit to thinking something shorter mind, fist in the air and chanting Kings Lynn, Kings Lynn Stars .... I'm up for whatever though, just gotta make it happen :-) Will whatshisname, Matt Black (just opened my prog, or rather A1 sheet!! to find out!) be up for it, will be a change from him telling us to make some noise!

I'd settle for a few more fans simply applauding after each race : (

This meeting turned out to be far more entertaining than people feared it would be, even if Birmingham were only a two and a half man team.

 

Obviously everything about King's Lynn was spot on, and as others have said, "Well done Nicklas". He's turning out to be an absolute revelation, and whilst I questioned his inclusion in our team pre-season, I'm so pleased that I was wrong, because he's a joy to watch.

 

I will give Birmingham some credit though, despite their heavy defeat. Danny King, as you would expect rode well, even though he only won one race. Nicolas Covatti was probably worth more than the 5-points he finished up with. But for me, 'Brummies' Man of the Match had to be Simon Lambert, who has experienced a confidence sapping season so far, yet even when he was third or last, he wasn't just poodling around, he was still riding his socks off. Lets hope it's an onwards and upwards situation for the young man from just along the A17.

 

Good meeting, thoroughly enjoyed it, now lets take Leicester to the cleaners tomorrow, although it does look as though the rain gods might run out winners quite convincingly at the moment.

Matt looks game for a laugh. Let's see if he'll take up the challenge and sing this on the mic at the next home meeting parade - to 'show his appreciation' for NKI !!!

How about 'everyone look' instead of 'Barker look so' ? Alternatively just insert name as appropriate maybe :P
