Normally every team starts equal (using the points limit) so why do this differently? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamKM91 Posted September 23 Report Share Posted September 23 (edited) So does everyone agree that the Stars team will feature 6 of these 9 riders (Tungate, Lawson, Kvech, Iversen, Klindt, Harris, Basso, B.Cook, Rowe) plus a rising star? Haha Edited September 23 by SpeedwayFan91 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha When a team manager says they're going strength in depth, already they've set themselves up for a wooden spoon battle again. It give none of the fans any excitement to get their teeth in to. Another year of dreams being dashed. Another year of a dead septet. Another year of not being a$$ed to put up a challenge. Another year of taking ££s from gullible. Where is the ambition at King's Lynn?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterborough went “strength in depth” with Chris Harris, Michael Palm Toft, Ulrich Ostegaard, Hans Andersen, Scott Nicholls & Bjarne Pedersen… and they ended up winning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he had stayed fit I would suggest the Panthers wouldn't have won the title.. A perfect storm of a season for them, which is unlikely to occur again... Teams that are successful more often than not, have two "big hitters" and build from there.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More GP riders and non GP riders of high quality now... And we have rising stars so "strength in depth" requires a five point man at least as reserve, unless you unearth a Dan Bewley as the RS... Two big hitters and work downwards is now the way the best teams work, as it also gives them top guests too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is the ambition at King's Lynn?? no idea if you are serious or trying to stoke up discussion however id say that those who go to lynn regularly have the ambition of seeing riders turn up every week and the club not get dicked around by the likes of laguta, jakobsen, museilak and tarasenko. to be represented by riders who put lynn and the uk first lets not forget we won a lot of home meetings this year through 'strength in depth' ive seen a team suggested with bomber and jenkins at reserve and a solid top five who all ride lynn well and that is quite exciting, realistically a big name number one probably isnt happening and that might not be a bad thing up the stars 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct but the I believe the comment was aiming that Panthers were bringing in big hitters as guests which they did not. More often than not the team did R/R. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the 6th meeting we had lost Taresenko after 3 meetings, and Toby after 6. We didn't have our original team for long at all. No wonder we were last, the original team started to fall to bits after 3 meetings. If we could of kept our original team, we might well of made the play offs.

Which other club gets ‘dicked around” by so many riders as you seem to? Perhaps if people running your club treated their riders better than that wouldn’t be happening. How many riders ‘dick around” Belle Vue, Ipswich and Sheffield? It’s always Lynn isn’t it? Must be the unluckiest club of all time! You’re ran like a circus so take off the rose tinted specs and admit it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There comes a point where you just have to hold your hands up and accept you’re being run appallingly. The biggest red flag on top of all the others was Musielak. This is a rider that has ridden here for Wolves, Swindon, and Sheffield and his commitment to British speedway has never been in question. He then turns up at Lynn and joins an ever increasing list of riders doing a disappearing act. Even before his injury there were strong rumours he wasn’t happy. If it’s not riders being unhappy and disappearing, it’s meetings being postponed for pathetic excuses. Kings Lynn are a shambles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have had success in the 2nd tier and very decent crowds for that level.. Is it just ego that keeps them in Div 1?
