Pretty dreadful track, pretty dreadful Pirate effort. 

I think pretty dreadful sums it up well.

Racing, Crowd, Excitement & Persistent Restarts due to riders trying to jump the starts.

Tatum got it spot on tonight, exclude riders who move before the tapes go up, warnings are a waste of time, none of this 15 yard crap, Chuck them out, it would soon stop.

Riss nearly lost it there. Now Jorgensen in medical room. How can this track be defended, seriously? 

If you had of seen Jorgensen at Newcastle last night as I did he was all strapped up with purple tape and in agony and could hardly talk for the pain . With what he was saying I am surprised he actually rode tonight ...Injury nothing to do with Kings Lynn track

Nice to see a track with dirt on it, some close action if not a pass fest. 

Why book Wells who is already carrying an injury? Jorgensen pulled out due to still having an injury with the match well and truly sewn up.

Nice to see racing on a smooth track tho.

Wells guested at Poole and was fine even with our many holes to navigate. Obv the KL track harder on his body.

Poole were lucky the Cook still hasn’t got his A game sorted at Saddlebow.  If he had, then it would have been a thrashing ;)  Then factor in a fit TJ and Nichol in for Rambo...  

Doesnt bare thinking about.

Plus the four fit riders for the opposition, so put Poole down for one league point then :D

The Poole track probably aggravated it too with the waves.

Kings Lynn was more gripper so harder on the arms.

Unfortunately. But surely it’s in Chapmans interest to have a great race track with plenty of entertainment. Most of the passing tonight was because the track was bad and quality riders were actually feeling unsafe to go for it. It did improve in the last few heats safety wise but Cook fell in his own picking up grip Nd Klindt was extremely lucky on a very patchy first bend not to get injured, when his back wheel went from grip to slick. Both Wells and Jorgensen had to retire having aggravated injuries due to the conditions. This is not right. If this had been Wimborne Road it would have gone to 40 pages by now.

Steve the track was not bad and unsafe.It's just grippier than most tracks that's all.It didn't have any holes or rolling hills in it that makes it dangerous.Why would quality riders feel unsafe if they were quality they should be able to ride any track.Surely someone like S. Lambert should be the one feeling the most unsafe as he would probably be the rider with the least quality on track last night,no disrespect to him at all.But he just gets on with it.

The track was no different to when you have beaten us twice this season but was it dangerous then?No,because you won.

A grippier track will always make your body work harder.

It looked much deeper than usual and i think it caught us out but no excuses we were soundly beaten.

The track last night was very bad. Skilled experienced riders being extremely tentative is not right. It was badly prepared. Polish tracks of similar size are not prepared in such a way. They are produced to present the best opportunity for the best riders in the world to showcase their ability. Kings Lynn last night was prepared in such a way to cause two riders to retire from the meeting. It then caught out one of Britain’s best riders in Cook who lost control and fell, then Klindt who was extremely lucky to not get clouted on a dangerous first bend when his wheel lost its traction.

It’s clear that Lynns track produces crap racing. Their fans have been bleating about it for a long time now. Clearly last night showed why racing is so poor. Chapman needs to get rid of the ridiculous grip and get it slicked off to produce racing the fans want to see. Stox wouldn’t notice a thing.
