Bagpuss Posted June 24, 2018 Report Share Posted June 24, 2018 From kingslynnstars.co KING’S Lynn are on the lookout for more away points when they visit Somerset in the Premiership on Monday.The Tru Plant Stars welcome back Ty Proctor and Michael Palm Toft for the trip to the Oaktree Arena, although Kasper Andersen remains on the sidelines.Proctor returned from injury for his Championship club Workington on Saturday and notched double figures in the Comets’ win over Glasgow, whilst Palm Toft racked up 17 points for Peterborough at Redcar on Thursday – frustratingly for the Stars, at the same time as they were missing out at Swindon - and the Dane could be a trump card at reserve.Somerset boast an unbeaten home record, with six wins out of six in all competitions, but their season has not been without its problems and controversy.The Rebels pulled off a big signing in the winter by attracting World Champion Jason Doyle back to the club, but made headlines earlier this month for two surprise departures.They parted company with crowd favourite Charles Wright after behind-the-scenes disagreements, and also released Danish youngster Jonas Jeppesen, with Claus Vissing and Nico Covatti coming in.Vissing failed to score when the Rebels beat Poole 48-42 last Wednesday, a result which means they currently sit third in the table with their home form backed up by their 46-44 victory at the Adrian Flux Arena last month.Vissing and Proctor also clashed on and off-track at Derwent Park on Saturday and are scheduled for an early return battle on Monday as they are due to meet in Heat 3.Meanwhile Andersen, who is still unable to race in the UK having been deemed to have suffered concussion last week, is replaced by Rye House’s Max Clegg at reserve.Stars boss Dale Allitt said: “We won there twice last season and we also won the Pairs there, and most importantly we’ve got six of our seven riders.“I think we’ve shown that when we’ve got a full team, we don’t really need to be worried about anybody.“Regarding a guest for Kasper, it’s a hard ask when there are six Premiership teams racing and you can only go up to 5.20 in the Championship, plus Somerset’s reserves are quite strong.“I keep saying it will be really nice to get our full team back, and that should be the case after July 4 injuries permitting – and it’s still a long season after that.”SOMERSET: Jason Doyle, Bradley Wilson-Dean, Claus Vissing, Richard Lawson, Jack Holder, Jake Allen, Nico Covatti.KING’S LYNN: Niels-Kristian Iversen, Lewis Kerr, Ty Proctor, Thomas Jorgensen, Robert Lambert, Max Clegg, Michael Palm Toft.

SomersetBlue Posted June 24, 2018 Report Share Posted June 24, 2018 This is going to be our hardest meeting of the season imo. Kerr and Palm Toft have been rebels before so know the track. Lambert certainly enjoys riding it, NKI is a strong rider. Clegg and Andersen I think would have scored similar tbh. The main battle will be in the engine room between Vissing/ Lawson and Proctor/ Jorgensen. Can't wait to get down for my first meeting of the season at the OTA.

sommelier Posted June 24, 2018 Report Share Posted June 24, 2018 Will be my first and only visit to the OTA this year, never youse to miss a meeting, only going as Lambert is there 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelvinht Posted June 24, 2018 Report Share Posted June 24, 2018 Hope the stars get revenge for our defeat at home a few weeks ago. Reckon it's a good possibility, although not sure about Clegg at reserve, think Anderson was likely to get a few points (but not many). An MPT special will be good. Any news on Kerr who missed his championship match due to a family emergency? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruno Posted June 24, 2018 Report Share Posted June 24, 2018 Hoping the drive down on the M5 is better on a Monday than the Friday nightmare, looking forward to a visit to the seaside before the meeting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Smith Posted June 25, 2018 Report Share Posted June 25, 2018 Even me, Mr Negative thinks King's Lynn will win this with ease. Apart from Doyle the Somerset line-up ain't good enough to wipe the backsides of the Stars team. 40-50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waytogo28 Posted June 25, 2018 Report Share Posted June 25, 2018 Much more likely to be 50 - 40 as we have virtually no No. 6 and may be without Leis Kerr. Neils is far from is best as yet as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of a shame as think it will be a close one. Rebels to edge it 46-44. On 6/24/2018 at 12:01 PM, SomersetBlue said: This is going to be our hardest meeting of the season imo.

Palm Toft although an ex-Rebel, rode 1 meeting for us last year.... and that was an away match! He didn't even ride a home meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theblueboy Posted June 25, 2018 Report Share Posted June 25, 2018 I think the KLS can sneak an away win here. Lambert rode the best I have seen him at Swindon last week, TJ is a decent little trapper and MPT looks an absolute bonus at reserve. If NKI can get close to double figures its 'game on' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT Posted June 25, 2018 Report Share Posted June 25, 2018 I may be wrong (and it’s a long time ago!), but I’m pretty certain after scoring about 7 in his first meeting at Somerset including a fall, Iversen went the rest of 2003 unbeaten at the OTA for Newport (has he ridden there since?). Once he figured the track out, he was majestic around Somerset back then, and I’m glad he’s got a confidence boosting max at the same place 15 years later.
