ReadingRacer2017 Posted June 20, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2018 Thought this would be a very close meeting, not now though. Think I’ll keep my £17 for another day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes of course we want and need a full team, pretty sure the clashes are almost at an end, let's hope the injuries/fitness probs are too and we can push on up the table.... Really not sure what the Premiership promoters can do to stop the clashes, those 3 Championship teams don't want to give up their long term Thursday night race nights. If they went to Thursdays, the Premiership teams need priority basically, they won't be happy obviously. Do the Championship teams not have off race nights? It's going to be a hard decision for the riders too, what a predicament! British based squads for the Championship perhaps? If I attend meetings or not what has that got to do with anything? As it happens I’ve not been to Lynn since July 1 st 2017 but I fail to see why that stops me having an opinion or interest in the club I’ve supported since I was very young . All id have thought we’d all want to see is our own 1-7 in every meeting baring injuries of course this doesn’t seem to happen that often for various reasons which is a shame . The fixed race night thing has been a farce to be fair great idea but should have been Monday/ Thursday rather than Monday /Wednesday who’s fault that is I’m not sure but the point I’m making signing Palm Toft after the season was under way was madness when we knew he had Danish League and also Pboro clashes who get priority as is the case tonight- I’ve nothing against Palm Toft in any way shape or form he’s done well , but he’s not much good to us if he’s missing meetings . I’m sure all we want is our 1-7 each meeting not 5 of our own and two guests - injuries can’t be helped but more thought should have gone into clashes with other leagues . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz01 Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 It's what happens when you change the Thursday fixed race night to a Wednesday. It's about time the BSPA showed some actual leadership and stop pandering to two or three clubs every year. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waytogo28 Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 What I can't understand is even if the goalposts were moved after the Danish riders were all signed, why not try running on Mondays with a full team instead of those Weds, with several riders missing? Why could not Buster or Brundle told us that that is what had happened and we would be more sympathetic / understanding? No-one has talked to the fans any more than in previous years. Suddenly a Monday was tried ( even running against an England football match ) and a crowd of nearly 1,000 was achieved. Could have drawn a bigger crowd on earlier Mondays. with a full team, if they had tried. Poor tactical thinking is what it comes across as. A much more symbiotic relationship with the KL supporters could have been achieved, which costs nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite a number of Swindon fans may choose to hold on to their £17 than watch this patched up encounter. Unless they adore steamroller wins. If Morley, Doolan and R/R score more than 8 between them I will be very surprised. Reaching 40 will be quite a "team" effort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Connor Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 It was only Jorgensen and iversen that mattered originally before rose quit. Jorgensen was our first signing before anything was done. And when an iversen wants to ride in the uk for your team you would be mad not to sign him. Young jasper was just a punt. If he missed a few meetings he was easily replaced. Rose quitting has caused the toft problems. There is a positive vibe at lynn at the meetings and the moaners are in the minority. I hope other people who read the forum realise that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main reason I can think of is Iversen and Lambert not wanting to fly back to Britain on a Monday in between a Sunday Polish match and a Tuesday in Sweden more often than they need to. One would imagine they agreed terms based on Thursday nights originally. Edited June 21, 2018 by Bagpuss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrss Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 Can't see Lynn getting any thing from this meeting. Doolan is a has been and Morley has been around a while but never made it as a top flight rider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pointsmeanplayoffs Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 Just as you start to get interested once again in the Stars, and get some momentum, this happens. Another meeting with almost half the riders missing. Can't be arsed with it anymore. I'll be happy when/if we win but gone are the days when I sit glued to updates/twitter awaiting heat by heat updates when we are riding away. I don't even care too much whether we win or lose at home either as long as it's entertaining. Poor management has done this to me, both at the club and in the wider sense of those that run the sport. The execution of the fixed race night policy just sums everything up for me. We select Danish riders who cannot ride on Wednesday's in the UK a lot of the time, and then we also have to ride on Thursday against teams when our riders are already doubling up with their Championship clubs. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReadingRacer2017 Posted June 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 (edited) Apparently Rosco has given David a target of 16 points from next 2 meetings to prove his worth to team. Edited June 21, 2018 by ReadingRacer2017 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrss Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 It's hard to stay positive as a Stars fan. Can see another heavy loss tonight. Why are the Stars promoters so thick? Can't they see a big majority of there fans are pissed off with missing riders every week. Dale Allitt is a nice enough man but he says the same old crap about it every week. Lynn's promotion are so useless they would serve Carlsberg as refreshments at a alcoholic anonymous meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecoombdog Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 I can't imagine how sad someone's life must be that they just sit on a forum all day posting trolling posts to try and get a reaction. Just feel sorry for anyone like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
