tellboy Posted June 1, 2023 Report Share Posted June 1, 2023 The crowd tonight was most definitely better this week by a long way.Double i would say,as it was that bad against Peterborough.Sheffield again bought plenty of support. Quite happy with our two new riders.Laguta having probably never rode on a surface quite like the NA before so quite happy and hopefully he will gain in confidence on how the track/surface rides in future matches. Kye 4 from 3 rides got to be happy with that.Find it strange he only got 3 rides.Heat 2 then not a race until ht 11.That to me was poor management.The guy is new to this track,we were getting hammered surely he needs more races to get comfortable and the feel of the track. Whoever came up with £10,000 a meeting for Laguta needs to give their head a wobble,seriously. Buster needs to don his tractor gear again imo,the other guy,well he needs some lessons imo.Didn't think the track was that grippy tonight,wasn't enough material down imo. The rest of the team seriously need to look at themselves because they are letting themselves down as well as the fans.Truly awful gating from all bar Laguta in the end.Why are they so slow from the gate is baffling to me.The biggest let down for me so far is MPT,ok he don't always gate,but he is normally at least on the tails of the riders in front.He was yards behind tonight again. Roll on next week we only have Belle Vue to contend with.Bewley,Kurtz and Lidsey all pushovers 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a happy bunny. Don't blame him! That was horrendously bad. Awful out of the gate and not aggressive enough either behind or in front. The two new boys showed encouraging signs but the rest should be doing much, much better than that. Morris tried hard and can't fault him for effort but you fancy Klindt would have fared better. And the racing was dreadful. Massive improvement needed next week. And the idea that the club could afford both Laguta & KK is pure fantasy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted June 1, 2023 Report Share Posted June 1, 2023 Definitely a bigger crowd tonight, no question. Car park on back straight rammed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the sake of the league and the run in to the play offs, here's hoping things improve at KL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeW436 Posted June 1, 2023 Report Share Posted June 1, 2023 Too be a bike length behind the opposing team from the gate to t1 is just inexcusable and it happened multiple times tonight from the Stars riders, especially on a track that was so hard to pass on 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make the gate and away you go ..." I imagine Lewi Kerr was grinning under that lid tonight paid maximum vs the Stars. As for Laguta give him time sure he will be dominant on the bigger tracks Monmore Green may come as a bit if a shock. The rest of the squad looks paper thin though.

I'm sure he was and good for him, he was excellent. However let's not pretend he was sacked when he shouldn't have been or harshly treated. He was poor at the time having got into a rut and needed that change to kick start his career again. Really happy to see a Norfolk boy back to his best. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

szkocjasid Posted June 1, 2023 Report Share Posted June 1, 2023 3 hours ago, Mr Blobby said: The fact that MPT who’s effectively a second string/reserve standard is at number 5 basically sums kings Lynn up for me. MPT has not been reserve standard for years. He even started last year as number one for Peterborough. Now I'm not suggesting he's a strong number 5, but should be doing better than he is.

RobboStars21 Posted June 2, 2023 Report Share Posted June 2, 2023 I’m not one to criticise the boys but tonight was not acceptable from the riders tonight. As for the absolute ridiculous slaying of the management for signing the best rider British speedway has in a long time. Keyboard warrior idiots! Cluelessness is a big reason no big names want to come over. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RideHard Posted June 2, 2023 Report Share Posted June 2, 2023 We have a team that rides KL so well. Holder and Musielak really attacked the track they are both on absolute fire. Kerr very fast out the starts so far this year and he isn’t easily passed. Laguta will put better scores in, first time riding the track his equipment will be tuned up better I expect next time. Stay strong Kings Lynn fans stick with the team and the club. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technik Posted June 2, 2023 Report Share Posted June 2, 2023 Laguta may well improve, but even then he will only get 3 points each time he wins. When the TEAM looses by a near 30 point margin at HOME there are bigger problems to solve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
