Leicester Lions V Kings Lynn Stars 24 Jul 2017


Recommended Posts

Batch has always been a marmite character. Given the current KL situation - get behind the team and deal with the issues after the season is over. It is still possible to make the playoffs.

2 plusses were TJ with 4 straight heat wins and Kai chipping in with 8+1.Giving it 100%..MPT giving it 100% like he always does(but not a Lynn rider of course)

Then you have your no.1

 

Who pulled out on the 13th,with an injury in "that" meeting..

Who scored 0,3,3,3 guesting for Swindon the next day.

Who scored 3,3,2,2,3,N guesting for the Robins on the 17th.

Who must of had some kind of bollocking I would guess,and got a lot of flack from the fans.And not happy going by his Twitter.

Next time out for his team,he scores X,1,3,0,0.....

 

I think most of the Lynn fans are miffed with Holder and Batch,and the fact that they are being kept in the dark but the Lynn promotion.And i'm one of them.

Well in spite of the final score there was some cracking racing tonight proving that the alterations to the Leicester track have definitely improved it. Very impressed with Thomas Jorgensen and have been wondering if he is any relation to John who rode for the Bees. Anyone know?

Last nights result was not important. Pleased that Leicester managed to get a win for a change. especially after all the bad luck they have had. What was important was the way the team performed as a united front, so in that way it wasn't too bad. It highlighted the riders who tried, it showed up them who are out of their depth, those who are still injured, but also the one who wasn't bothered...

 

Jorgensen is such a massive find, one we have to hang on to. Huckenbeck is here to stay, those two performed as good or better than I imagined. MPT is another rider I always have time for and gives 110%everytime. But we have to stop finding excuses as why Batch performed so badly. His scores last night were an embarrassment for No1 rider. He knew the score of everything he did. The team needed him to perform, but again he let everyone down last night . We have to assume another lost on Wednesday when we play Wolves, but once August gets here we can then drop Batchelor for good, when it will be too late to ride for someone else..

 

I've got no time for people who aren't HONEST, with themselves or with the supporters. They don't serve a purpose...

I take it you won't be sending him a Christmas card this year. Why do you want to drop Batchelor for good and why wait for August? No team is allowed to replace a rider from 1st August so what would dropping Batchelor achieve (apart from making you feel better)?

I was thinking of getting someone in on the last day of July, not realising we would need to release Batch at the same time. He obviously wants out to go elsewhere, I thought retaining him till the cut off date would mess his plans, not realising it messes our as well. :oops::oops:

​And I am another one. How many more disaffected fans of the Stars are out there now ( and won't return ) is THE problem Buster has brought on himself ( as the owner ) and the "Promotion" by their management style and lack of communication / empathy with supporters. It's no good saying fans should " Stand by their club whatever" the world has moved on for many people and VFM in return for your financial support also counts for a lot.

Whatever is said, there will be fans who have made up their mind or have their own agenda.

 

Just read Busters words from last night, it's easy to see what he personally thinks.

some sort of press release on Dale health and Rob has he quit ? wouldn't go amiss - but that par for the course now sadly at Lynn fans are treated like mushrooms - I'm waiting for the use it or lose it statement cus it's coming very soon .

Was at the meeting and like you say Jorgenson, Palm-Toft and Huckenbeck were superb a credit to the Kings Lynn race jacket. Aanio who's only got 1 point also raced his socks off his effort didn't reflect his score. Simon Lambert just can't ride a tight track which leaves me with just our supposedly No1. Well after an unsatisfactory start to heat 1 Batch rides straight back into the pits I knew he would be excluded and I'm pretty sure he would have known himself and the after gating in his second ride he wins relatively easy but in his third and fourth rides where he didn't gate he just didn't try. Don't think the club will tolerate this much longer, well I hope not anyway.

Up until That Thursday he has been riding great on the whole this season imo, consistent. I think it's stuff behind the scenes now.

Sorry but even if there is things going on that we don't know about it doesn't excuse him for not giving 100 per cent when he's on track.
