Hel'n'Back Posted April 8, 2019 Report Share Posted April 8, 2019 OK, don't think you are giving the lads enough time to settle but am happy with the performances of Ty and Kasper at Sheffield! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poolebolton Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 I see the idea of Riss at 2. If lambert gets going then you have a solid 2 up front to get a large amount of points early. Why Poole use Josh G at 2. The lack of a number 5 is KL big issue. It’s a lot of pressure on Riss to deliver every time right now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g13webb Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 Having supported Lynn for more years than I care to remember, the team situation this year has come as no surprise.. Fans have to understand that we are not usually born winners and have excepted that for years. All the noise about going one better than last year is silly talk. Last year was an exception, although it was ours for the taking, even then everyone conspired against us to lose. We need to forget it, its gone. we are back to our normal place. It was always on the cards that this year, we again, will be also rans. Every TOM DICK and HARRY who follow speedway are aware of that, no doubt Buster is as well. But it doesn't matter. Us mugs will continue to go paying out decent monies watching a team without a hope in hell of winning. That is Kings Lynn Speedway...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waytogo28 Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 Hoi! You forgot about the DENNIS's. I have been following the Stars since they moved from Norwich ( and since Ove Fundin pushed his bike from Thorpe Station up to the Firs -he must have been fit )! I was even going to be mug enough to go last night but neither of my regular chauffers were going so I had to suffer it on Updates. You are right, last year was an exception and we are in our former role of also-rans. Last year was our Worky year! But we could not cross over the line. That is King's Lynn Speedway.....

foreverblue Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 (edited) Riss and MPT jumped the gate so far our rides and the crowd thought it would be pulled back by the time they were at the first bend our riders were several bike lengths behind even the home fans were saying how the hell have they got away with that. One of our riders can't remember who got a warning for moving at the gate so maybe that was why Durno let it go but home fans near me didn't see our rider move and nor did i.

When I voice a concern early on about the quality of this team, I was accused and rubbished for always being negative. It appears everybody is now feeling the same way, and it seems OK to say these things now. Strange world, strange people.... Blooming heck Webby. You are a man of mature years and stable temperament. You should have long ago sussed it that we do live in a strange world and with some strange people. Speaking the truth is often unwelcome to those who have delusions ( or their own agenda ). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mimmo Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 It was a healthy crowd, but not as large as I thought it would be. Next Monday will be better against Ipswich I would have thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

semion Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 Buster don’t have to worry about spending his hard earned on a competitive team. He can still turn a decent profit on all the local Derby’s that will attract plenty of visitors to cover the poor crowds for the other fixtures. No mug is he ? As he once said ... you know where the door is. Wise man that Buster, wish I’d taken notice of him years back. Still better late than neve. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair if he is spending the right amount to keep his head above water I don’t think anyone can knock him, I read the Chris Morton article in the star the other week and it’s clear Belle Vue are losing a lot of money each year, how long that continues is anyone’s guess but a halt will be called at some point. Riders need to understand that the money just isn’t there anymore (Cooks a classic example) just how many clubs have to go bust before it dawns on them. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Connor Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 I’ll wait a couple more meetings before calling for changes. Was a decent meeting. Shame about the result. Riss Jorgensen and Kerr did their jobs. You could tell we were a little rusty though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clambo71 Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 The Stars current problems are at positions 1- 3-4 -7. Lambert will sort his problems out at no 1. Riss and TJ should be moved to other positions in the team. Ty moved to no 2 Kerr to reserve and replace Andersen, he is just a liability on an 4.00 average.

Bagpuss Posted April 9, 2019 Report Share Posted April 9, 2019 Two half decent races for £18 on a chilly night didn’t feel like particularly good VFM especially when the team lost. Not an awful lot wrong from numbers 2-6 but the number one and seven aren’t doing the required job at the moment, one of those riders will obviously come good once machinery is sorted but you wonder if the other has it in him to pull his weight. Still early days so the benefit of the doubt must go to him for a few more meetings yet. Poole were decent value for their win although ten points was a bit flattering considering how tight things were for thirteen heats. Lots of rusty men and machines on show for both sides and a fairly flat atmosphere, sometimes it feels like a social occasion where people meet for a chat and a beer / tea / coffee with some incidental speedway going on in the background. Not a lot of rider / crowd interaction but a pretty healthy attendance judging by the car parks. Hoping for better on all fronts next week against those pesky Twitches.

Given last nights result all the local derbies might be needed to counteract poor crowds for the other fixtures.
