As a Diamonds fan it pains me to agree... But I do.

1. Tobias Musielak

2. Charles Wright

3. Niels Kristian Iversen

4. Benjamin Basso

5. Vadim Tarasenko

6. Michael Palm Toft

7. RS

Good looking team imo. Not title contenders, but good nonetheless

Agree. It's not to bad.  I'd rather Wojdylo over Toft tbh , but Tofty should be able to put something on his 5.13, if he is, and can stay fit. We desperately needed a re fresh after recent years, and I think a play off place is a must this time around. After the last few seasons, It's important to keep fans happy. Starting by winning your home meetings.:t:

Wojdylo can't be in then because the punters won't put up with Buster putting out a KL side 1.35 under the limit especially when he's not paying out for Panthers riders in 24.

 

Musielak 8.69

MPT 5.13

NKI 6.64

Basso 6.25

Tarasenko 6.94

Jenkins or Rowe (RS)

 

Leaves 6.35 so it has to be Wright, Brennan or Schlein for the final place imo.

 

It wouldn't surprise me to see both MPT and Paddy in there. Given Buster brought him over for a spell last season, and MPT can't be dear. Money is an object at Lynn,, with Buster at the helm.

I wouldn't be happy if that was the case, No reason to go 1.35 under the limit especially now that Buster has extra funds to use on one club instead of two.

Or might just be that other options on a six and a bit average have gone elsewhere for more per point. Buster has always worked to a budget, he doesn't have a sponsor with deep pockets like three or four other teams in the league. That's just the reality and consequently it makes being competitive very difficult. I expect MPT is the best of what's left for the last spot if he has signed, regardless of the limit. Just the way it is.

Simon lambert has announced he has been told he isn’t in team for 24

Appalling decision in my opinion. Simon is in the form of his life and always gives 100% for the team. He has been part of the Stars set up on and off for many years and is at least one rider who looks like he wants to ride for the team. I would have thought his contributions at the end of this season would have had him nailed on as a dead cert for a team place in 2024, but in typical Kings Lynn fashion, success is rewarded by being dropped and no doubt we will see the same old failures being rewarded with a team place?

I don't disagree but the trouble is I'm not sure his average has an awful lot of value in it. His effort and commitment last season was without question but is he realistically going to keep that level of scoring up? We'll have to see who else is named instead, if for example it's Wojdylo & MPT you are looking at a Polish rider who showed a lot of potential last year and a Scunny team mate who average a point more than Simon despite a nasty injury.

If Wojdylo or Palm-Toft start at reserve then Lambert hasn't "ridden himself out of a team place" they've simply signed 6 riders stronger than Lambert (which they're entitled to).

If Lynn went for a 4-4.5 reserve, you could argue Lambert "rode himself out of a team place" by upping his average.

Has Robert Lambert ruled himself out of full time return? Not sure if he is still on his low average or got a new one at end of season..

Robert Lambert said in an interview that he wouldn’t come back to ride in the UK until at least 2025-2026
