TheSmiler Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 Seems a bit of a downer to race tonight's meeting with the health of Rory still unknown. I hope there is a tribute made for him and I really hope it's not as bad as feared. He may have his differences with Coventry but he is a top guy and has done a lot for British speedway. I hope all riders have a safe meeting tonight and enjoy the match for Rory. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 Bjerre is never very good at Brandon so RR would possibly score more than he would of esp with NKI & Lambert. However Schlein is a big miss as very strong at Coventry. Roynon should score well at reserve on his home track and in good form. Depending on what guest they get, King's Lynn could still get something from this. A lot also depends on if Hans has got his problem sorted. His 17 points in Poland yesterday didn't seem to cause him any problems. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdmc82 Posted May 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 Michael Palm Toft will ride in place of Schlein tonight with rider replacement being operated at number five. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 Christ almighty, gonna be a cricket score. Don't think Bjerre's performances really depend on the track, it's more about his confidence at the time and how well he is gating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midland Red Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 Illegible - I suggest someone should write better then so others can read it I think you meant ineligible "Footnote: When we have a situation where our leagues are struggling through the shortest of top riders" So - who's the shortest of top riders, then, and how are our leagues struggling because of the riders' size? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Coventry will declare when they hit 50 No disrespect to MPT but he's no Rory Schlein. Edited May 25, 2015 by tellboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz01 Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) Luckily Kings Lynn have Iversen and Lambert in the side two riders I enjoy watching. Although I think we will win comfortably I'm still hopeful of a decent nights racing. Edited May 25, 2015 by woz01 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 Lambert has to get there first! Still awaiting ambulance swap over with Lewis, and we will need him in 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted May 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 Lambert has to get there first! Still awaiting ambulance swap over with Lewis, and we will need him in 15 Going to be a rush but at least Peterborough isn't far away. Robson & Roynon have just finished their PL meeting.

mdmc82 Posted May 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) Good win for the bees tonight. Congratulations to Danny King on the fastest time of the season Great ride by Scotty & JK to beat NKI & Lambert in the TR. Iversen was in great form. Palm Toft did really well guesting and deserved his heat 15. Morris & Porsing must be a worry though. The meeting ran at a good pace and nice words at the beginning of the meeting when speaking about Rory.

Mark Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 Poor spectacle tonight with most heats from the gate and stretched out. I left before Ht15 and missed the best race by all accounts. Toft did OK Shame Lynn had injuries but really nice to hear Rory Schlien is moving his legs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"slightly" depleted??? what a moron It's Havvys job to talk up his team. He's hardly going to say, "did you see their team? My God I nearly feel off my chair in shock at how poor it was after some bad luck for them in the last week with injuries and had we not beat them by this much it would have been embarrassing". But when you look at it, Lambert, Porsing and Morris were all poor, thats as close to half of your team as it gets. MPT didn't do a bad job, thought I guess you would have probably expected a few more form Rory. As for Roynon/Kerr - Coventrys reserves are so good it's debatable that Kerr would have scored much more too. That said, if i was a Lynn fan, I'd not be getting too worried based on this one result. We all know that losing Schlein and Bjerre is a massive kick in the man area. Hopefully Bjerre won't let it effect him as he was just getting sorted and the club will used the Rory injury as a chance to replace Porsing at the same time and what you'll lose in Schlein, you'll gain in replacing Porsing.

Sarjeant beat him at ours on his last visit & Garrity recently beat him in the reserve races at King's Lynn. Yes Rory would have scored more than 8 but bees won by 24 so even a Max from him wouldn't have helped. King's Lynn's own riders in Porsing, Morris & to an extent Lambert struggled. NKI was brilliant but even he was beatable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately we won't ever know as injuries deprived everyone from seeing what would have been an even closer contest!! Of course Lynn have some weak points but if most of the team (given the chance) can ride to their best then we're virtually unbeatable IMO. Regrettably another injury infested season looks lke we'll never know Edited May 26, 2015 by Star Fever 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
