    If last weeks track at Lynn was anything to go by Klindt should do ok,the track wasn't no where near as grippy as it usually is.Although I wouldn't have Klindt back anyway as I think his injury from last season will hamper him this season for sure. If they were to get the track grippier Wojdylo will have to keep one of his strong engines back for that.

    As I said,he did perform last night,but in his other 2 he hasn't really.

    Well in this case Jonas had already signed for his Polish club and only signed for Redcar after TJ said he wouldn’t be fit to ride. Probably makes the Bears stronger in this case, hopefully Connor can score some points after a difficult start for the Bears.

    Lions v Aces 18/04 PR1

    GeneralMelchett replied to Col's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League

    I remember the one lap dash events in the old second halves in the late 80s / early 90s - I enjoyed them but last night at Owlerton I saw two cracking passes on the last lap in 2 seperate heats so lets bin off that idea!

    oh completely - football / sport is littered with great players who never made it as manager and mediocre players who made great managers etc

    Before my time really and don't fully know the details of that particular theft. But whilst I wouldn't equate the gravity of straightforward nicking of bikes with robbing vulnerable people with menaces, I don't think you'd want such people back in the same workplace where there's the opportunity to nick more bikes. I think I previously qualified my views on rehabilitation versus ongoing risk to others involved in the industry. At the end of the day though - with certain obvious exceptions - I think it needs to be up to individual employers whether they want to employ former criminals. I wouldn't employ someone who'd robbed disabled people unless I was absolutely convinced they were a reformed character, but if you get into blanket bans on former criminals resuming their former (honest) trade for unrelated crimes, where does it stop? And unless you mandate the death penalty for every crime, even former criminals need to make a living otherwise we'll continue to have to pay for them.

    Maybe the one who I once saw having hysterics in the pits, throwing a fire bucket around, and shutting himself in the changing room ... because he had been excluded under two minutes ...

    Bringing Leon in is probably down to 2 things his age and they probably hope there is room for more improvement.

    But being a great rider does not make a great team manager either.

    Exactly. If you follow this line if thought to it's logical conclusion why not dispense with all that messy racing and random variations and just add up the two teams GSAs and award the match to the team with the highest combined average. [Think of the savings: No stadium to rent, staff to employ, machinery to purchase, riders to pay]

    By not running Heat 15, did Oxford get a losing bonus point by only losing by 6? If so, lets hope Ipswich don't miss out on the play offs by 1 league point from Oxford! More than happy with Jordon. Clearly on the pace and will score more when in his correct position of reserve.

    TTT replied to Arch Stanton's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League

    He's much better than his early season form suggests, Ipswich have time though because the team has been racking up wins. Hope JJ can bring back his 2023 form back.

    Strawman argument. Harris's GSA is under 7 so no one should regularly expect him to score double figures. He's outscored his average in 4 out of 5 matches so far this season and that's an admirable record, not a reason to laugh at him.

    You would think wet conditions would suit Chris Harris than any other rider. Just remember all the stick i got saying that Harris would not score well v a decent ippo side.at Foxhall ..Magic looking great as well i see. Saying all that if Tungate had have showed up they might have won.

    Seems Emil still can't get a win in heat 1 - don't think he has won a first heat all season! Apart from Jenkins everything seems to be pretty much ok - he will drop to reserve which will hopefully give him some confidence. I watch a rerun of the Peterborough v Sheffield match from last season and he looked really good. Don't recall him being that great there as a rider either!

    Keep Tarasenko because he's the best rider you've got when he fires. Would Klindt and S. Lambert fit for MPT and Wojdylo?

    Interesting aside: how do you feel about Tony Clarke? His crimes were against speedway, yet he was back in the Wolverhampton team within days of his release.

    Schroeck was a dreadful TM at Rye House

    Let's not forget that Tarasenko top scored in our first two meetings, he had a bad night last night through losing three primary chains in three heats but that doesn't undo his scores v Leicester & BV. The Wojdylo issue seems to be down to Polish engines that are too strong, it needs sorting quickly as the team is designed to have a high scoring reserve. I'm not sure Klindt is the answer personally, he is still to get going really this year after injury and I'm not sure a grippier track would suit him. I don't know who would be though, I'd prefer to see this seven ride themselves into some form but as others have said 4th place could be long gone by then.

    King’s Lynn 2024 serious team predictions

    GeneralMelchett replied to SpeedwayFan91's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League

    He was pretty fast last night, in heat 13 he missed the gate completely and against Jack and Tai you can't do that and expect anything other than a 3rd! Reverse applied hin heat 15 he was out of the traps like a hare and off into the distance. he also missed the gate in heat 1 but worked hard to overhaul Howarth on the last lap.

    I didn't see the comment in the light of 'I know something you don't'. I think it's fair for a rider to comment that there's others they'd be more concerned about on track without giving specific names. Are these things not linked though? As others have said, if it was a convicted felon going back into plumbing or mechanicing, no-one would care less. Speedway is neither important enough nor sufficiently in the public eye that there's any sort of reputational issue involved, and as much scumbag behaviour offends and appalls me, I think once you've done your time you should be able to resume a gainful working career unless the crime was related to your original employment (i.e. child abusers should never be allowed to work with children or vulnerable people).

    Surely Klindt will be a shoe in for KL?
