  1. I cannot agree. What is past is prologue. Those who accept it now, will be to blame when it happens again in the future.
  2. Never mind who's riding, who is the referee? At least this week there won't be any TV cameras. Ignorance can be bliss sometimes.

    Kings Lynn v Poole Playoff Final 2nd leg 10/10/18

    I think the way he looked up, saw that the state of the race, and then stayed down was the reason the ref put Klindt off 15M. I didn't know the rule existed to be honest, think it worked well in that situation.

    Gutted. I don't mind losing, but losing like that, well it's hard to take. Everything went against us, from injuries to key riders, to corrupt officiating, to illegal guests, it just wasn't meant to be. Such a shame.

    Kings Lynn v Poole Playoff Final 2nd leg 10/10/18

    I am 100% with you... except this is a final and the only thing that matters in winning. We've had the best/one of the best tracks in the land for years and years and we've never won the big one. It's cost us actually, as many opposition riders love racing here and score well. As a BV fan I'm sure you can appreciate this now. The NSS will not help BV be successful on the track as it's so good and all opponents love it! Teams like Poole have their trick tracks which is worth many points thru the season. They'll kick off about that but I really don't care.

    15 FTG's and a 55-35 win for the Stars and everyone will be happy : )

    Kings Lynn v Poole Playoff Final 2nd leg 10/10/18

    The gates to the AFA are already open, there is lorry after lorry going in there at the moment. Must be delivering new material for the track. Promoter Robin Brundle tweeted this morning that work on the track re-commenced at 5am this morning.The photo he shared looked like they were watering the track heavily. God knows what's going to happen tonight, could be any score. Just hope the Stars riders use the 'behind closed doors' practice session later this afternoon to get dialled in so that they can hit Pirates with some 5-1's early doors. That would make it interesting!
  8. I'm not, you have not understood my post. It should not fall upon Adam Ellis to uphold the credibility of the sport. it should be up to the teams/promoters. Poor guy just wants to put food on his table. Hope he scores a maximum tonight : )
  9. Why should he?!? He's trying to earn a living. Not his fault at all. Both teams should agree to run R/R. It's the only sensible outcome.

    Any word on what ticket prices for Wednesday are? After increasing the cost of a cup of coffee by 20% the other week...

    Official Playoff Final Thread: Stars v Pirates

    First bend? Isn't that where the 'hooligans' and 'thugs' (c) Alun Rossiter 2018 congregate?!? Might have to 'keep your nut down' if go stand with those lunatics?
  12. Pretty sure Stars will line up with Robert Lambert at 1 and Niels-Kristian Iversen at 5, both will be in heats 13 and 15 which is when the final will be decided. Couldn't wish for a better top two. Where are the Kings Lynn 'hooligans and thugs' (c) Alun Rossiter standing on Monday night at Poole?
  13. You're such a 'poundland mourinho' with your attempts at mindgames LOL

    What's the best race you ve seen live

    Goosebumps thinking about that! Scenes at Lynn not seen since until last week versus Swindon. Place was jumping. Only right to mention how dignified and gracious in defeat both Middlo and Holder were in the pits immediately afterwards. They were class acts that night. Davey was gutted understandably!
  15. If we get there, and that's an IF, why on earth should it be acceptable to increase the ticket prices?! What a massive two fingers up to the loyal long suffering fans that would be! And for what? a couple of grand more? give me a break.
  16. There was one plank calling Ty a 'cheat' in the South Stand - implying that he should have cleared the track as the Aces were on another 5-1 when Ty crashed. There's always one - we have idiots at our place too! Come to think of it, wonder if it was the same guy who started the 'Easy Easy Easy' chant when the Aces went 10 clear?!? The Aces fans on the backstraight were good fun IMO, as was the mascot Chase.

    Whereabouts are Stars fans congregating tomorrow night? Would make sense to support the boys standing altogether rather than have a few here and there. Not been to the NSS, am really looking forward to it!

    Never gonna happen. What a poisonous trouble making post this is. Absurd.

    Easy for you to say from your armchair LOL! Or are you going to the play-offs? I hope you do, Stars need all their fans to turn up and cheer them to glory. The ones like yourself who are despondent, maybe this could be some kind of redemption?!? Come on the Stars, all in it together!!!!!

    No worries, the 'Kings Lynn Ultras' which Rosco was whinging about the other night will be able to handle themselves!
  21. Having a 'home advantage' is part and parcel of all sports, it adds to the drama. Look at the Ryder Cup next week... The European team will make sure that Le National course is set up to their liking, and not for the big hitting Americans. What about Davis Cup tennis? You think the Spanish teams choose to play their matches on clay not hardcourt just for fun? No. When Liverpool played at Leicester at the weekend, you think it was coincidence that the pitch was dry as a bone and not conducive to a quick passing game? Even the Welsh Women's team narrowed the pitch when then played the England Lionesses the other night.
  22. Comments like that this are not helpful. If you are going to comment on the crowd, I don't know, maybe you should turn up and see for yourself before peddling somebody else's unreliable and down right incorrect statement. C'mon, I'm not asking for blind optimism, just not blanket cynicism which is pretty poisonous. We've just finished top, we have a massive meeting versus BV in a few weeks, lets concentrate on making the best atmosphere we can to help the riders win the league for the very first time.
  23. King's Lynn have the chance to finish top of the top division tonight. TOP. That would be an incredible achievement for a team predicted to finish near the bottom. Yet the first pages on this thread are people whinging about the fact we have a double header tonight. Cheer up you miserable sods and enjoy what has been an exciting and closely run finale to the regular season. And all the best to Scott Nicholls and Ty Proctor, who I see are both missing tonight through INJ sadly.

    Such awful news. Heartfelt condolences to you all, it's situations like this which put everything in perspective. Life isn't fair sometimes.
