Daniel Smith Posted June 2, 2023 Report Share Posted June 2, 2023 I don't see why all this "Keyboard Warrior" s#!te has kicked off again. I've not seen one complaint about Brady & the signing of Laguta. If anything, most fans are unhappy with everything that's going on around him. Alex is the new guy & the club is suffering from the same mistakes for the last decade. That's clear evidence the issues are elsewhere. Fingers crossed for Alex but unless others move on he'll be fighting a losing battle at King's Lynn & end up tarred with the same brush. We once had a guy very similar to him, in that he'd travel to GP's, Ekstraliga, Elitserien meetings, chatting with rider's, marketing the club locally but eventually British Speedway knocked the stuffing out of him. He was the son of our (past) owner. Personally I'd forget about Poland, go looking at the youngsters from America, Germany, France, Argentina etc, these guys would be absolutely grateful for a chance & give you everything they have. Even 16-18yo Swedes & Danes are worth a shot over employing the same old same old year in, year out. Alex, pleeeeeeeeease do something different for 2024. Source new track material & find new rider's & do it your way. You're listening & learning from the wrong people who have already done a very poor job for over a decade at this club. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously I know nothing about KL so the points you make about the club I will take at face value, especially given the knowledge you have shown in the past around KL and its past history, and opportunities that it seldom seems to take.. However the two points I really picked up on were the one about Jonathan Chapman and the one about "learning from the wrong people"... Chapman was one of those "fresh ideas" promoters that, it appears, dont ever seem in favour. I presume due to the "We 'can't (don't want to), do it that way" knock back from the majority.. And as for "learning from the wrong people". That is a clear issue with the sport as there is rarely a "gold standard" to look at and aspire to be.. It is noticeable that Poole seem to be doing "very well" even after their change of promoter.. Delivering a business model to suit their needs.. "Learning from the right person" in this instance maybe?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure who does the 'signings' in the winter, prob a joint thing. @Skidder1 will know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tellboy Posted June 8, 2023 Report Share Posted June 8, 2023 A winning team and Laguta will bring the crowd back imo.Laguta and getting beat week after week will only improve a bit.There were some good races tonight,but ultimately you need a winning team to keep 95% of people happy and to keep coming back.Getting beat every week and the ones that came to see Artem will slowly drift away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeW436 Posted June 8, 2023 Report Share Posted June 8, 2023 This is giving the Panthers thread a run for its money, I think the penny has dropped with us though that we are crap and probably will be the rest of the year too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamKM91 Posted June 8, 2023 Report Share Posted June 8, 2023 Pickering could possibly be back next week (hopefully in for Jorgensen) and apparently they'll be another team change before Monday's meeting away at Belle Vue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will definitely be a change in time for Belle Vue away on Monday, there are some things to build on, and hopefully there will be a reaction again.” No apparently about it, Alex's own words from the post-match report.

Sure you’ll get 100% all action effort but in 12 months he’s gone from #1 to reserve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
