Feel for Lawson, would have him back on a seven but he's not good value on his final figure especially if a few bigger names return to the league for 2023. Can see Worrall at Leicester and if FTR's are retained we're in good shape with Thomas and Edwards. Would have Iversen back if he wants to race here and we be daft not to consider Riss. All depends on the numbers though. Jorgensen seems part if the furniture at Saddlebow Rd now, would say Pickering maybe in high demand on that relatively low average but would hope he has some loyalty to the Stars having been made captain this year. Iversen is 40 and is definitely on the decline, but is still a decent heat leader in the UK, not sure he's a #1 anymore though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trees Posted October 25, 2022 Report Share Posted October 25, 2022 I'd have NKI instead of Klindt and keep the rest of the team if they want to stay. They can all do the biz, they've shown it this season ...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rumours suggest R Worrall is staying at Leicester with their move to the Premiership it means Stars will need an addition to the current septet. With Worrall gone could Stars fit in both Klindt & NKI. I know Polish Ekstraliga agreed that their riders could ride in two other leagues but NKI wasn't an Ekstraliga rider in 2022 and isn't likely to be next year. Are the other Polish leagues following suit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col Posted October 25, 2022 Report Share Posted October 25, 2022 NKI, Klindt, Lawson, Jorgensen, Pickering & Jakobsen = 40.42 so unlikely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple of new faces needed I’d have thought - Iversen at 40 I’d have thought his time is over at Lynn - who the club can sign that’s another story depends who if any decide to return to British speedway in 2023 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydoo Posted October 25, 2022 Report Share Posted October 25, 2022 Minors and Brady are going to need to sell a hell of alot of properties to fund the team the Stars fans want , especially as the higher interest rates will be slowing the housing market right down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we may see more big names coming . Lots of little birdies are putting a few names our there and it's very interesting....I think a few will come and I've been told one big name is coming to a certain club but not sure how good the source is until I see the name on the team sheet!

I’d be more than happy with fast Freddie in the team - as I say Iversen been great for the club and British speedway but at 40 I think if Lynn seriously want to win the Premiership we need to look elsewhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He finished 2017 on 9.29. I take it that would be his average. I'm not sure if i would want him on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Smith Posted October 25, 2022 Report Share Posted October 25, 2022 I know it's early & some get giddy, especially after (yet another) awful season, but the suggestions of Woffinden, Lindgren etc returning to British Speedway is just laughable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bald Bloke Posted October 25, 2022 Report Share Posted October 25, 2022 8 hours ago, tellboy said: Need to build differently and obviously averages come into it.From the October green sheets,believe this or not the Lynn team had the 2nd highest team average by some distance only behind Belle Vue.Seems ridiculous doesn't it that based on this years rules Lynn and Belle Vue would have to dumb down while the rest could strengthen up. 7.91 would be a no go for me on Lawson and Jorgensen probably one of our riders of the season maybe too high on a 6.35.Pickering just over 6 would be ok.would probably be the only other one from the top 5 i would have back.Averages may change as it has been the season of weird goings on.So we will have to wait to see what changes they make at their get together and go from there i suppose. That 62-28 over Wolves didn't do us any favours. When the Oct green sheets came out, every Wolves rider had dropped their ave, and the team as a whole dropped 3.40. While as you say ours went up to second highest. I'd say someone/team was on the ball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTT Posted October 25, 2022 Report Share Posted October 25, 2022 0% chance of Lindgren riding for King's Lynn. He'd be the first name on CVS' & Adams team sheet if he wants to return to UK racing. Freddie's first choice would be Wolves too. Doubt he'd want to return with his long covid issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted October 25, 2022 Report Share Posted October 25, 2022 (edited) Just put some big names in your line up,, and when loads of fans turn up for first meeting,, tell them they are not here,,, Edited October 25, 2022 by Baldyman 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proud panther Posted October 25, 2022 Report Share Posted October 25, 2022 How are all these top riders going to be able to return to the league when it is rumoured the points limit is being reduced ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
