Two things;

1. Why has been released now when the club's Twitter feed said only five hours ago that it would be Friday?

2. Proctor is an awful signing, his best days are way behind him and he is unlikely to improve. Might as well have had Palm Toft back! One can only assume that Erik Riss wanted to much money if he was ever under consideration.

Bit of a shambles really. Fans forum a waste of time for many as we know the last two are Iversen and Andersen. Looks a pretty ordinary team which will get some humpings on the road.

Won't be Andersen. Have to say what a shocking team that is being put together.

Yeah, because getting rid of our best riders worked out so well last season?!? 

After the shambles of last season, you cannot blame any rider for thinking twice about riding for Stars in 2018. I'll be honest, I have considered not going to watch them - last season was THAT bad.

Let's hope that after a successful season in a well run and well supported team that Robert WANTS to sign up again for the Stars in 2019. That would be a result for all concerned.

  

 

But if they don’t want to be there it’s Best they are moved on for everyone.

Jorgensen is 7.10 and Proctor 7.15 in the Champ.And TJ is 5.93 in the Prem.So going by that Proctor is nearer 6. I might be wrong..

Awful looking side even if add Iversen surely Kasper Andersen can’t be the last rider. 

Total shambles again from the club how they announce the team . As I said weeks ago total waste of time going to a fans forum .

I hope you are because if they have left less than four for the final rider that makes Proctor an even worse signing.

 

Surely TJ's Prem average is an attained one rather than a calculation?

A shame the edp have revealed the team prior to the official announcement. Couple this with the speedway star announcing Lambert last week, the promotion must be either fuming or kicking themselves - either way, I think they need to spring a surprise signing at the forum.

I will buck the trend and say that oddly, I’m quite excited by the team (big hitter and reasonable 5 point+ man to follow) 

Having at least 1 strong reserve throughout the season will be key I think, the last time I can remember that is the draft season with the re-signed ‘team Lewis’

Proctor should 5.5 (7.15÷1.3) from his Championship average as he didnt have a Premiership place

TJ is different as he achieved a Premiership average and so his Championship figure is irrelevant

You happy with the 5 currently selected then?

A total crock of poop being put together and clearly built on the cheap

Heavily banking on getting NKI to keep the fans coming through the turnstiles.

Lets just hope for all KL Supporters and the team the Poles do lift the 3 league rule as doesn't bear thinking about where it would leave KL. I hope for the sake of KL and the PREM they do lift it as I like many want to see a decent KL side even though I don't support them.

Also seems to me that what it will cost to pay NKI is maybe affecting the budget lower down, especially with the TV situ still not resolved and even if it is it will be a lot lower than the old SKY money which finally ran out end of last season under the guarantee.

Maybe KL living within their means but to me further evidence we are perhaps heading ultimately toward one big affordable league.

Of course anything possible as this time last season Swindon were being mentioned by some as bottom of the league finishers and we all know what happened there.

Lets also not forget that non performers can be emptied just prior to the first GSA's coming out end May/early June, so never say never.

Could of had MPT  5.57 in place of Ty, and still had 4.33 for the no. 7 place

It's not the best of the teams announced,but i am happy in the knowledge knowing we will have a very strong reserve,maybe 2 if Andersen works out ok.I'm also happy that Lambert and Rose are in the team.The only one i will worry about is Proctor.With the arrival of a very good number one we shouldn't be that awful as some think.

If it's clearly done on the cheap as you think,pump some money in and sponsor a Dudek or someone to come over.
