whistlegang Posted November 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2017 Well ignore my comments if you do not like them. You know all the Kent fans then ???? To want to see better class Speedway is not a crime. So you think one person who controls everything is fine. will do probably 200 better class? I want NL and no foreigners he's doing pretty well so far! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueherb777 Posted November 24, 2017 Report Share Posted November 24, 2017 will do probably 200 better class? I want NL and no foreigners he's doing pretty well so far! 200?,so you know everyone who goes now What is wrong with watching foreigner riders? The best Speedway I have ever seen was watching Andreas Jonsson flying around Lakeside. Doing well? Yes,Kent have won loads over the years !!!!!

adz_mft Posted November 24, 2017 Report Share Posted November 24, 2017 (edited) So that's 6 years we've had to put up with all your negative Kent/Len comments lol. Hardly any of the Kent fans would want to move 'up' anyway. I'd like to see Edwards as one of our reserves but i've a sneaky suspicion that he'll go to Mildenhall... Edwards won't be at Mildenhall I doubt Edited November 24, 2017 by adz_mft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

East End Fan Posted December 12, 2017 Report Share Posted December 12, 2017 I am amazed that Blueherb 777 has the audacity to Pontificate about our sport when he admits he doesn't even attend ! Such people do our sport a lot of harm. While it is far from "perfect", the racing still excites me after decades of watching. And at every level. Must admit to a preference for the National League as I enjoy watching new youngsters progress. My own club, Lakeside, are up into the 2nd Div this coming season. Hope it has the affect of increasing attendances to ensure the continuity of the club. I will almost certainly give Eastbourne and Kent a few visits to keep up to date on the 3rd l;eague 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blimey getting very high brow on here So anyone that does not go now,or goes at all etc has no right to comment? Perhaps you should be asking why only a handful of supporters go now! "Sport a lot of harm" ????? Only the die-hards read this Forum,so my views are hardly going to lower gates My main point has always been that I wanted Kent to show some ambition and move up a League or so. Just like yours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East End Fan Posted December 13, 2017 Report Share Posted December 13, 2017 My club, Lakeside have struggled to make speedway pay for quite a long time and we are indebted to Stuart Douglas for keeping it going by supplying the cash needed. Kent, on the other hand never seem to be in trouble for money and when I attend, as I did quite a lot last season to follow Ben Morley when he was riding there as a guest, the numbers sitting in the stand and elsewhere looked substantial in today's terms. So, if my guess is correct, that Kent earn a profit for Roger Cearns, why would he want to put that at risk by moving into the more expensive leagues ? There is also the 8.30 curfew to consider. Does not help, I'm sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangerKings Posted December 15, 2017 Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 I'm going to guess that Len will want this team: (1) Luke Bowen 9.07 (2) Bradley Andrews 4.68 (3) Anders Rowe 5.07 (4) George Hunter 5.43 (5) Jack Thomas 7.43 (6) A 3 Pointer (7) Luke Clifton 4.22 (If fit)...... TOTAL: 38.9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel1 Posted December 17, 2017 Report Share Posted December 17, 2017 Having watched the sport for over 50 years I much prefer to see the youngsters having a go. They have not learnt some of the requirements for holding on for 4 laps. Witness for instance the ex-moto crosser Danny Ayres. He rarely made a full 4 laps without the need for re-mounting at some stage. Now he is a heat leader in the National League. James Shanes, he had the ability to stay up yet his starting let him down so he was an all out racer. Who could say that the 2 top leagues give any better racing. I see the GP riders going for the world title but rarely see that the racing is any better. Just my perspective, but I used to trip over to Rye House in the sixties when they had the winter training sessions and watch lads of all levels have a go to improve their style or mere speed. Just the sport. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iand Posted December 17, 2017 Report Share Posted December 17, 2017 Watched Hume, Hunter and Bowtell in there 1st season with the Raiders, all were fast but lost count of the amount of times they fell off and threw away points. All 3 have progressed well and that's what the NL should be all about bringing on the youngsters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOTAL: 38.9 Would be surprised if Hunter was included in the Kent side and be staggered if Andrews was included, he was the only rider last season the fans & management didn't really warm too plus on 4.68 doesn't look great value. Bowen, Thomas & Rowe must be certainties with others plugging the gaps. I think Clifton would be a mistake for both club and rider but that certainly doesn't mean anything with stubborn Silver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebel1 Posted December 18, 2017 Report Share Posted December 18, 2017 No chance that Luke will be racing in 2018 as his bones were being very slow to knit when he last visited hospital. Would be surprised if he ever came back as a bad fall yet again would not be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moleman27 Posted December 18, 2017 Report Share Posted December 18, 2017 Not sure but seems like in Len's comments he gives away that they have Jack Thomas signed aswell as says they will be looking for their fifth teenager for their other 3 point reserve.

Islander15 Posted December 18, 2017 Report Share Posted December 18, 2017 A bit much asking Hampshire to be at number 2 all year isn’t it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
