Won’t be Musielak guesting as he’s now on his holidays next week according to Twitter. 

Adam Ellis or dare I say it David Bellego.

Nick Morris would fit for the first leg if available, but there aren't many choices for the NA if Musielak can't guest.

Who wants to go to Italy anyway ;)

Batch is being mentioned on Twitter, well he hates KL so that's a plus

What was mentioned at the press conference last night is yet again the riders arrived and were caught out by track prep in the first half of the meeting. It took them several heats to get their setups correct. We can’t afford to give Kings Lynn 5-6 heats at the start of the meeting where we have no track advantage.

For me the final all revolves around one man.   He has been very 'average'  (I'm being kind here)  for Lynn all season.   Listening to him on BT after last nights meeting he seemed to determine to end his season on a high.    An on Form NKI, Lynn win.  A No show from him and its all Poole's to throw away.

I would go with r/r at Poole, as Josh, Nicolai, Kasper and a reserve can take his rides. Most certainly weakens us but would rather use riders in the right frame of mind for a final and not just another meeting to pick up a bit of points money.

At Kings Lynn Matt will have to get in a decent guest but there’s not much choice. Go for a gater though as it’s nealy all from the tapes. Watched Garcia and Berge wobbling about in their rides, then gate and were untroubled.

Josh and Klindt have better home averages then Kurtz and Wornya not far behind.

Doesnt weaken Poole having r/r in that respect

Why say r/r at Poole but then say it will make you weaker?

Surely if you think it makes you weaker you would get a guest?

It would be nice if this thread was dominated by sensible debate rather than the usual guff about changes making either team stronger or weaker or mind games about who is favourites or underdogs yaddah yaddah zzzzzzzzzzzzz.

The reality based on form and previous results this season is that both legs will be comfortable home wins and it could come down to which team can dig in and score those vital extra points on their away leg when the chips are down.

Impossible to say who will win but my main fear is Poole’s Play Off experience and the fact that they usually pull out something extra when the title is on the line.

Think King's Lynn will keep it reasonably close at Poole, I know they've been comfortably beaten both times this season but Palm-Toft wasn't at reserve then and Woryna won't be now. Poole will need a double figure lead to have a chance in the 2nd leg.

Reserves will play a huge part in the Poole leg as will Iversen.

Niels hasnt gone well there this season

Simon Lambert is appalling around Poole so a lot will rest on Palm Toft who hasnt really done much there either.

In the 2 matches at Poole this season Iversen has got 5 and 6 and the reserves were outscored 22-5 and 19-6. Kings Lynn cant afford that to happen again

The interesting thing is Baggy, you could make a case for both teams winning this over 2 legs.  I guess with the likes of Shovvy trying to yank peoples chains ( and people letting him) then it could be a long week. :D

Pretty sure Stars will line up with Robert Lambert at 1 and Niels-Kristian Iversen at 5, both will be in heats 13 and 15 which is when the final will be decided.

Couldn't wish for a better top two.

Where are the Kings Lynn 'hooligans and thugs' (c) Alun Rossiter standing on Monday night at Poole?
