It's been great to see the likes of Robert Lambert, Emil Sayfutdinov, Tai Woffinden and Artem Laguta back on British tracks for the various lengths of time that they've been here. Love him or hate him, which the majority seem to on this forum, without knowing the real Keith Chapman, the atmosphere at the Adrian Flux Arena has improved, in my opinion, ten fold, since he was forced into having to take the lead role in our favourite sport again. The cheers and applause that he received after the meeting, when he announced that he would keep the club alive going into 2024, was great to hear, so thank you Buster, for allowing the keyboard warriors, the chance to slag you off again next spring. They are in the minority, compared to the amount of people that do support you. I agree with Bagpuss, Simon Lambert must be the first name on the team sheet for next season. He's a great captain, and a rider that never knows when he is beaten. Okay, I'll open my windows now, as I'm expecting the S**t to hit the fan, but I've expressed MY opinion, as of course you are. Have a good winter everybody. No s*it from me Mimmo . I've been supporting Buster this season, and had poo all season from P/B fans on here. He has been dealt a low blow at both clubs, when he wasn't supposed to be there, and wasn't involved with Lynn, and pretty much the same at P/B. He could of shut both down, and walked. Look at P/B's team since CJ bailed. Many P/B fans saying Buster might as well close the doors now, and he don't care.. Lynn was in trouble after Alex left. It wasn't Busters team, and team has been hit hard by injury. What I will say is that he should be more transparent in the future. The fans would welcome that, and just might feel sorry for him this season if they knew. For me Lynn need to cut their cloth accordingly next season, and if that means running in the Champ (if there is 2 leagues)then so be it . I guess it depends on if we can find a new promoter for 24.

therefused Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 I would get Rowe snapped up for next year too, no idea what the league system is going to look like but his scores in the past few weeks (along with S. Lambert) have kept the scores tight, its the engine room that's need sorting (and number 1 if Robert isn't staying) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we'll give a good account of ourselves in the league match at Owlerton a place where we've had our backsides handed to us several times Inc our last play off appearance there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bash Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 Thought Chris Gay had an absolute mare last night, so inconsistent with the starts. Pulling them back and warning Ipswich riders but not when King's Lynn riders jumped the starts. Heat 1 should've been rerun after the carnage in the first bend, how nobody came off after S. Lambert went right across the corner. Witches deserved the win after some bending off the rules by KL. Should've had to go with 1 rider in heat 12 as Bruem pulled out of the meeting with an existing injury, from last week, but allowed IRR. Glad to hear KL will be running next season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Smith Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 People missing the point with the praise and worship of Buster. The most significant difference from the past 2/3 years is this back end of the season he's HAD TO SPEND MONEY. Hopefully he's learnt a valuable lesson, you can't run a team on the cheap without consequence. He should know now, King's Lynn in 2024 MUST HAVE A GENUINE No1 & No5 to stand a chance. Some will say Simon Lambert & Anders Rowe must also be included, but they both could be on 5 averages next season making them 2nd strings. Could you really trust them as a No2 & No4?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My post sticking up for Buster was referring to this season. He's far from perfect i might add. As you know he went from having virtually nothing to do with both clubs, virtually retired, to having both clubs promotion dumped on him, with short notice. With the stick he has been getting he could of walked.. I do know more than some on this one. As for the 2nd part of your post. I agree, this season has shown you can't keep finishing bottom, the fans will walk eventually. At Lynn you have to be challenging, and winning most of your home meetings for the fans to attend in better numbers. If you can't afford to do it in the Prem, the Championship it has to be(if both run next season). I also agree regarding our 2 reserves. As good as they have been in the last few meetings, you can't have them in the 1-5 in the Prem imho.

Probably not if the league was in its current format, but I think I would take them at 2 & 6, not the biggest Simon Lambert fan by any means but he has proven he deserves it, has a lot of support at Lynn and history at the club, Rowe could potentially be one of the best reserves in the league.

Sadly sticking by riders who are not up to which is in isolation when other teams have gone for bust in bringing riders to get to the finals may have bitten the witches on the rear. It would be good for speedway if the likes of Doyle and Sayfutdinov are in the play offs but who knows. Maybe as guests if Ipswich cannot carry it off tonight. Sayfutdinov and Doyle have the two highest averages in the Prem by a distance, so neither can be used as guests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pubichair Posted September 5, 2023 Report Share Posted September 5, 2023 Rowe klindt and Robert should definately be back! Hopefully Robert will want a full season back at the club!
