 “It’s the No.1 we’ve been crying out for and for me, it’s the biggest signing in King’s Lynn’s modern history.”

Yes I am jealous probably just as much as they were when Allit and Buster were lifting the league title two seasons ago but this feels so hollow given what we've been told.  

I know budget will be used as the excuse but where's the Pedersen budget gone? .

If Tarasenko is given a 5 average we will be 2.87 under the limit still and for me that's not acceptable

The club shouldn't sit on it's a$$ and just admire itself though, they still need a new site asap. 

Agreed but it’s better than nothing considering the challenges of buying land in this area right now, however there does need to be a long term plan if we are going to continue instead of limping along like we are atm at the showground

You continue to talk utter shyte. When are you going learn numbnuts that you embarrass yourself and the club you support with your endless drivel.

I am not sure whether he/she actually supports a club.I think he/she just likes to post rubbish on here for reactions which he/she invariably gets.

What about Tungate, KK, and Tarasenko,  for NP, Hans, and one of Worrall, Basso , Cook. Not ideal i know. But would make you strong at home.

According to another user KK has already put his UK equipment up for sale...

I'd do it and said the same to a member of the management team last night. Make kK feel loved and focus on home form

Just sign a decent no1. That's all that's needed. As it stands everyone is under unnecessary pressure to cover the the likes of cack like MPT at 1. If we'd had Bewley as guest again we'd had won easily, not been 4 points down after one race and Fricke wouldn't have looked like the superstar that he isn't.

Didn’t win because we didn’t have a particular guest?…Oh dear….Lucky to still be able to get a facility for the guy!

It wasn't a particular guest, it was an appropriate guest. You know, a number one that wins at least 3 races on his home (or for that evening at least) track. Strange concept I know but a useful objective all the same.

Whether or not the facility should or should not be available is a different issue.

Just been reading the speedway star and for the first time that I can remember we do not have 1 rider in the top 20 averages and no riders above a 6pt average (into the 7's I mean). For me the 3 experienced guys in Hans (hate to say this about a club legend), Niels and Worral are really at fault. Also noticed the scores of the rumoured 2 middle order guys coming in are not that great either so not really much to look forward to unless a suprise is coming..

Really don't understand Peterborough fans problem with Richie Worrall. He's delivering exactly what's expected from him average wise. He's not your problem one iota. 

Iversen & Basso have been poor, Andersen, Worrall are about their level & Cook & Jenkins are above their expectations. 

If Tungate & Tarasenko gets going they can make a significant difference.

Have Peterborough actually announced Tarasenko yet?  His TV interview at the Grudziadz meeting plus the Polish sites (Sportowefakty etc) have already mentioned him being in the Panthers line up, but I can’t remember seeing a press release.  If they don’t announce another incoming rider with him it’s a bit after the horse has bolted

Have to agree. Whilst I wouldn't have signed Worrall he's not the problem but he or Basso may need to go to bring in a 1.

As mentioned above we need a number 1 who'll win 3-4 races a meeting at home and a high scoring reserve. 

We simply need to find and pay for a proper number 1.  

Tarasenko should be fine at reserve and Tungate is good for double figures every home meeting around the showground.

Nope it's really weird how long it's taking to announce the 2 changes. To a point where I'm not sure what they're trying to achieve by leaving it so long. 

If the arguement is over Tarasenko's average then tell us
