I don't hink it matters who is number one, the team has been built to try and emulate P'boro 2021 with an ultra solid 1-6 and everybody chipping in. They don't 'need' anyone to do anything other than average 7 ish.

Yet was at number one for the winning play off team just eighteen months ago before having 2022 wrecked by injury.

As said above everyone in Lynn's team needs to contribute as the top end strength of others just isn't there. 

2021 Panthers title win was a once in a lifetime scenario though that'll never be replicated again imo, It was basically the equivalent of Leicester City's title win.

Ulrich Ostergaard was like an astronaut in a space rocket which then opened the door for R/R to become a luxury after he got injured.

The older members of the team all hopped into a time machine and ended riding like they we're 30 again.

Yes true, there is more than one way to build a team so the way Kings Lynn is built would mean they need to go in to the latter races of meetings with a lead.

Not necessarily, any loss I'm heats 13+15 can be countered in heats 12+14. That being said I think Lynn look solid from 1-6, so will have 2 good riders in every heat not involving their "RS"

The team is built very similar to Peterborough's title winning team, so I expect them to do well.

I doubt it would be countered by heat 12 and 14 , Danny king is capable of winning heat 12 and they have Rew and Thomas  at reserve.

Yes but there are five other teams too.

Also I'd fancy any combination of our top six against King/Riss & Rew.

If Panthers fans could pick 1 from the below, who would they choose?

1. Nicki Pedersen

2. Freddie Lindgren

3. Artem Laguta

Easily Nicki

Watching Nicki wind up the opposition is worth the admission fee alone.

When do people think the big reveal will be. Tomorrow (Saturday) or next Thursday?

One thing to our disadvantage is consistency. The whole 1-6 could score 10 or 3.

Every one of them needs to score 6-7 week in week out & I can't see it compared to others. 

Felt confident with this team when it first came out, comparing to 2022, but now every other team is (almost) done, can't see anything but bottom.
