foreverblue Posted November 15, 2015 Report Share Posted November 15, 2015 Yes I will as I fully expect him to ride 100% for Poole, something he didn't always do for Coventry this season. I'm sure you've got a few riders you're never been keen on ~ Hans was one of mine, along with Troy Batchelor, Davey Watt, Darcy Ward and Krystof Kasprzak. Fortunately it's not a very long list. Its funny that you dislike KK when he was in your title winning team! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heathen chemistry Posted November 15, 2015 Report Share Posted November 15, 2015 How ridiculous is it that a so called speedway fan can joke about another track maybe being lost in a year. he lives in a little blue bubble, one day it will go POP.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to say I am not a fan of Troy either, when you need him he doesn't turn up. I wasn't all that keen of Mitch Shirra just to lengthen that list.

Yes, it didn't take him long. Sad really. ......foreverblue.......Its funny that you dislike KK when he was in your title winning team! Not funny at all really ~ there are riders I like and others I don't. The season Coventry won the league I think he came in for the last couple of months? (Sorry I don't store useless Speedway information so I'm not sure.) He rode well then but the last time he was in the team he was pretty useless, not interested and kept pulling up when at the back. You've probably noticed him doing the same in some G.P's when he's in 4th place. Well, sorry but those sort of riders annoy me.

SCB Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 think in 2010 kk was in a team high in confidence and it rubbed onto him, KK is weird. His last 3 EL averages have been 7.5, 11 and 7.5. Get the one who averaged 11 and you're laughing, get the other one and some days you'll be wanting to kill him! It's nothing to do with the team he rides in either. As when he's crap one place he's crap everywhere! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 3 teams that sacked him might say it's everything to do with who he rides for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Jasper Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 KK is a proper enigma, he was brilliant for us in his 1st spell, not so great in his 2nd spell. I believe in his 1st spell for us he even had a decent meeting around Monmore Green. I probably would take a chance on him again if Havelock can get the best out of him, but I get the feeling Havelock isnt so keen. I just cant see who our heatleaders will be and find myself scratching my head as to why we didnt retain Kylmakorpi. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Jones Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 could the issue have been cost ? Wouldn't be surprised. We know MH had a problem with the" cost "of Kylmakorpi last season . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz01 Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 I wasn't to keen on re-signing JK, not sure his average has any value as a heatleader. Having said that I will wait for the top 5 to be announced before making any real judgment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCB Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 Does anyone know if Woodward is fit yet.? No he's not. Looks like another season out for him. As for Joonas, like King he was an, "if a deal can be agreed then great but other wise, no great loss". When it does become more of an issue if if he cannot be replaced!

I don't think you are the only one somehow ~ I can immediately think of someone else. I do find it rather weird though not being keen on him as he has ridden well for Coventry over many years and is a rider that always gives 100%.

heathen chemistry Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 KK would be a total liability ... larsen on the other hand is likely to improve his average by between .50 - 1.00 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INCOGNITO Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 As there are so few riders with an average of 6 or more is Daniel King classed as a heat leader ? There are less than 20 riders on such a average so realistically King should be the number 3 with Bomber at 1 or 5 and with Garrity and the reserves it still leaves a considerable amount to get up to 40.5 and many teams will struggle to get a solid team of just three heat leaders under the limit which appears to be set far too high considering the riders available and the riders like Janowski and Iversen set to stay away. Wouldn't be surprised to see a meeting held in December to change the limit or rules on team building strengths Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
