King's Lynn Vs Kent (nl) 06/07/2016


Recommended Posts

Will be a very interesting meeting. KLYS very good at home and should give a strong Kent side a good run for their money. Would be hard to predict. Look forward to a fast and safe evening.

Kent will be missing. Bowen, Clifton and Mason. Branford in place of Bowen. Clifton got concussion on monday against Buxton. Mason broke some ribs in the 1st leg of NT cup at Birmingham.

Tough decision. If Kent could get a guest for Clifton and run RR for Mason it would make them stronger as all barring Branford could take an extra ride but there is only really Richard Andrews or Jack Smith around on reasonable averages and not sure Brum would allow their riders to help Kent?

Alternatively we could have Carr in for Mason or Hume who flies around Kings Lynn but it limits the options for RR.

 

That said Kent are meeting Kings Lynn at the right time as its Hazelden & Whitmore at reserve and im not convinced they will be as potent a threat as Kinsley has been previously so the unbeaten run should continue.

I'm sure Birmingham would let you use Jack if he wasn't riding tonight ;)

That is a very valid point although you have a full 1-7 tonight so just being greedy ;)

Im sure i remember Drury getting a little miffed at some riders doing additional meetings last year and i know the same applies this year.....

I honestly can't remember seeing a better meeting at any level in this country, this season. Swindon v Leicester early last month was a bit special, but didn't quite produce the intensity of last night.

 

Congratulations to both teams for providing such a spectacle, and once again, all those people who won't give National League racing a try, were the losers.

Completely agree with this post, a credit to the National League good racing all the way through but heats 13 and 15 were something special.

Can hear Kelvin purring about 'proper speedway' now!!

I was stood on bend 1 and the visiting Kent fans there were an absolute credit to their club, and to Speedway in general. Obviously disappointed with losing heat 15 but gave due credit to the young stars.

They came out in support of their team well didn't they. I had three guys next to me, and they were real gentleman with not a nasty word to say about anything or anybody.
