We're just unsure whether it will have had it's long overdue refurb. But familiar dishes will still be on the menu and we'll still be able to eat and drink until our heart is content that's good news then, can't afford another loss of restaurant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought maybe they could of been frightened of announcing that Puk was not doing this season.A real shame as that top two is a very potent one and i feel Puk would of been on it this year.. You will never please everyone.Personally it hasn't bothered me as the season doesn't start for a further 5 weeks for us.By then we will know what's on the menu well before opening night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they take it on board and try something else next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to agree with you there Sidney, I have tried to see the logic of this stagnated announcements but fail miserably in understanding their reason. To the promoters this may seem like a big laugh but the only people they are penalising is their own supporters. Although there has been no official word, you didn't need to be Einstein to guess the outcome. Like most have said, the team has been as expected, so there has been no surprises. . . . . . . . so far. In trying to understand the reasons why they would leave Riss till last, prompts the question of, is he ???? Remembering a comment Dale made in the SS a week or so back about some excitement coming at the end makes me think there could be a change in store. Could be a white elephant, but either way, I'm not holding my breath. Looking at the 6 riders named so far, I struggle to see how people think it will be strong enough to be competitive. With the help of the track preparation, we may win a few at home, but on our travels we will be up against it.... Take Robert away, and all we have is a second division side.

Phil The Ace Posted March 1, 2019 Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 On paper it is a very poor team for me. But as we all k ow. Things ain't won on paper and this team very nearly won it all last year. So dont right them off just yet. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say Webby people have piped up a lot to be honest i feel Lynn with Lambert/Puk would of had a great spearhead anyway good luck enjoy your racing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have been a decent spearhead,although i don't NKI would have been happy with a grippy track again.If we did have Iversen instead of Riss though then you would have to lose elsewhere in the team,say a 4 pointer for Toft or Kerr at reserve.Then you would get people moaning about how weak we are at reserve.Maybe after we get some new averages we maybe able to bring in NKI for Andersen anyway 1 hour ago, g13webb said: Have to agree with you there Sidney, I have tried to see the logic of this stagnated announcements but fail miserably in understanding their reason.

I'm assuming it's a white elephant.6.16 left to play with by my reckoning,with Riss being 6.08 it's near enough a perfect fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think King's Lynn without Puk are still weak at reserve Proctor for me is the one that hinders the team building of this team.I might be proved wrong but i will be very surprised if Proctor reaches the same average again.

Bagpuss Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 Nobody knows how Kasper will do but MPT ought to be one of the best reserves in the league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Scrutton Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 Proctor could at least retain his 2018 average and improve on it if he can stay away from injury he had a year when he was having a lot of injuries As for Puck was it that he didn't like Grippy Tracks to the fact that it wasn't doing his shoulder any good after his operation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Scrutton Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 The question is who will be the two reserves this It is hard to calculate with all this reduction for some riders in 2019. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
