Phil The Ace Posted September 18, 2014 Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 KK is a class act when at his best. He beats the best at almost every track, no matter what the shape or size. He has an immaculate style and looks silky smooth. However, he is unreliable, inconsistent and untrustworthy. KK has let every EL club down that he has ridden for (although Aces fans seem to remember him more fondly than his more recent clubs) I do recall Chris Morton being very critical of him in his final few meetings for Bellevue however. His loyalty in the EL is atrocious and he is a major risk as a signing for any club. He was excellent all year for us until the last few matches when we signed crump. KK saw his ass and sulked. He's still one of my favourite belle vue riders in recent years. Great style. And he was fast and he was fantastic at all small tracks barring wolves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stratton Posted September 18, 2014 Report Share Posted September 18, 2014 Remember seeing KK at a Swindon press day when he first signed pure quality god he was impressive.Since his Swindon time i have never been a fan,and he should of never ever got a testimonial in this country that was a joke.Endless other riders over the years at all levels deserved one more than him never ever got one do i want him as a WC a big no.

Beowulf Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Just as worthy as bjarne pedersen id say! Have to disagree with you there, Bjarne has contributed a lot more to British speedway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCB Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 Bjarne has been a fine servant to British speedway TBF. OK he's not a 9+ man any more but he's still one of the more consistent riders in the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Panda Posted September 20, 2014 Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 He will still get one i presume? do you think he was worthy of one?. To be fair I have no idea what happened about it...........is he worthy of one????????? The Poole fan in me says yes but in reality I am not so sure............

EnglishRoundabout Posted September 21, 2014 Report Share Posted September 21, 2014 Just as worthy as bjarne pedersen id say! Why wouldn't Pedersen deserve a testimonial Pinstripe? I'm no Pedersen fan but surely it's obvious to any true speedway fan that he is one of this last decades loyal and committed riders, both in the EL and previously the PL? Surely you're not buying into the 'agent Pedersen' rubbish? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 So he can't ride Monmore = can't ride small tracks? He's ridden for BV and Lakeside in this country, he has scored maximums at Eastbourne as an away rider. It's nothing to do with track size with KK. KK only gives it his all when he is in a Poole race jacket or can be bothered. There couldn't be a less deserving World Champion, if he ever delivers on that front.

There couldn't be a less deserving World Champion, if he ever delivers on that front. Its more than that. He's a confidence rider. Nothing to do with being in the mood. When he's crap in the UK he's crap everywhere. Sometimes it just clicks for KK and he scores good points. Yet from nowhere a bad meeting can come along and threaten to derail a season. I'd sign KK. Big risk I know but when he's good he's worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big risk I know but when he's good he's worth it. Of course its a confidence thing with him. However he often gives up or cant be bothered in rides in the EL over the years he has been here. That`s more about not being bothered than being confident or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
