Kings Lynn 2018..


Recommended Posts

Iversen,Lambert,Jorgensen,Wozniak,Palm Toft Auty,Rose.

43.12 with that team,not bad.I'm calculating Iversen's 9.04 into that without any conversion.

Guess we will find out the points limit in a couple of months.Then we can all start scribbling our preferred teams down.

Any winning one would be nice :D.

I actually like yours,but think i would have Kerr in the team instead of Rose.

 

Not saying Rose is better than Kerr, But Rose didn't desert us for greener pastures when the Stars fixtures clashed with the Witches...

Are you serious?

 

Deadly serious !!! When you think back, Kerr had just recovered from a nearly fatal accident , whenst Lynn supporter dug really deep many times, to help him in his hour of need. Nothing was too much trouble to help a Stars asset.

 

The Club at that time were in limbo about their race night. Eventually they decided to go with Thursdays instead of Wednesdays, to help NKI, miss with clashes with his Danish club.

This created a problem for Kerr who then had to choose between Ipswich or the team who had looked after him. He could have dropped Ipswich and rode for another Premier league side, but he elected to drop Lynn instead and ride for Witches. The fact, Lynn were in desperate need of a strong Reserve meant nothing to him. Later, that same off season, he actually signed for Lakeside as well, a Friday club, in competition with the Stars....

 

Ironically, Ipswich dropped him by mid season, putting the reason he left into prospective.... He then went to join another Premier side, one that didn't clash with either, Wed or Thurs... Had he appreciated the Club for what they had done for him, or his value to the team, probably, he would have still been riding for the Stars for a good few years....

The way I remember it Lynn were the ones pissing about changing the race nights, for what turned out to be for no reason whatsoever as we ended up riding again on Wednesdays and it actually hindered our season last year. I don't blame Kerr at all.

I hope Lynn will have Lambo next season.Some fans(not Lynn) have him in a not so good light.

Look at this.....

 

Lambo age 19 Lynn No.1 ave 7.36

Ellis age 21.. mixed 5.56

Bewley age 17 4.71 at reserve

N Grieves age 19 2.94 at reserve

J.Bates age 21 5.52 most at reserve.

J Shanes age 20 2.95 at reserve

 

Only Bewley might match him

In all due respect, the only comparison those riders have in common is their age. When it comes to ability, Lambert is in a different league.

Them fans, you mention, probably are the ones who went to the NSS to see Robert represent our team last weekend, but he couldn't be bothered to go. :icon_smile_clown:

why Lambert didn't show at NSS my guess is more about logistics than anything else he rode in Germany Friday and had Poland Sunday so why would he fly to Manchester Saturday am to return to Poland Sunday am ? He was in Germany fri so blame his knee as to not go BV then nice and handy for Poland for Sunday

Bewley may turn out to be as good as Lambert, as he clearly shows he has a racing brain and their ability at the same age was quite similar. But they are the two really outstanding talents of this era. I hope that Lambert is in the Stars 2018 team as he has even more to show of his top level ability. It is very concerning as to why he withdrew from the PLRC and he should be more open about it. I hope it is not that he is turning his back on the BSPA / UK yet.

Obviously he is likely to follow the money to Poland ( who wouldn't !) as that is where the bulk of his earnings will come from over the next decade. The current serious problems in Sweden may not make it such a definite destination for him ( or any top rider ) but the prospective earning level for top riders is no better in the UK ( and may be worse ).

He's not on about the Lynn fans.And as you have put in your posts in the past,everyone is allowed an opinion.So this is merely Bald Bloke's opinion so i don't understand the clown emoji.Is it just because his opinion differs to yours?

I read it as the clown was for Lambert.

Have no problem with a rider trying to prove himself for Poland 2018 as rightly said that is where his main source of income should come form over the next 10 years if he is going to make it.

 

My gripe is the flwg: Was it not the BSPA who put out the message that he was not riding in the PLRC due to his leg injury. If that's the case then indeed how can he ride Germany Friday and then do 6 rides in Poland on Sunday.

 

Of course the BSPA and its members/chairman will not air their views on the BSPA which can understand. However one can understand how some question the integrity of the BSPA Chairman considering his outburst about Holder Jr riding in Poland despite his club Peterborough being happy to let him ride and were compensated. Was any such compensation passed over to UK Speedway for Lambert not riding in the UK's most prestigious individual meeting for the teams top riders at the National Speedway Stadium.

 

Is Mr Chapman even bothering to look into it or cant be ar**ed as its his teams rider and end of season so what's the point ??

No doubt your not far wrong. Two issues here, Firstly, if riders such as Friske, Lindgren and Worrall were all at the same meeting as Lambert on Friday and they bothered to get back. then so could Lambert... Lindgren and Fricke were also riding in Poland on Sunday, plus they were back again to the NSS for PO on Monday.

NB, Good job Lynn didn't make the PO's Lambert would have had difficult fitting these extra meetings in. :wink:

 

And Secondly when it was announced the League Rider championship was on Saturday, why didn't Lambert pull out straight away . After all he was aware of his Knee problems, and also, places like Poland, Germany and England are still in the same position, so no doubt he was aware of the difficulties in travelling....

Seems to me Lambert is picking and choosing his meetings, and using his knee injury, as a get out of jail card....

 

So please this season is over...... For us any way.....
