1 Musielak
2 Toft/Wojdylo
3 Basso
4 Iversen
5 Tarasenko
6 Wojdylo/Toft
7 Rowe
Ive done that with the 2 and 6 because Patryk will be in the main body after 2 league meetings as his average goes up
I'd go with that

Going by the statement it looks like he might not be the **** that a lot have been calling him on here all season, after all.. Still time i hear some say...
We will just have to see how it develops, i guess.. I'm not getting in to a slanging match about it on here btw .Had enough of it.. Would just be interested what others make of it.

2 hours ago, iainb said:I get what you're saying and price per match I still think it's pretty good value but the packages I've compared are equivalent, CL pass and PL pass year on year.
Early bird Prem package is £89.99. Only a tenner up on last season. I really enjoyed the 2023 season. 18 meetings, works out at a fiver a pop.

I'm hoping it's Rob picking the team, within Busters budget of course. I cant see him agreeing to be TM otherwise.

Chapman is behaving as a shrewd business owner in my opinion. He will not hand over ownership until after planning has been approved/unapproved.
Fans are saying that the club has no value, well it clearly does. If the stadium gets a protection order from the council it again becomes a going concern, Chapman can increase it's selling value & he's had to do no work for it either.
Great bit of business if you ask me
I'm getting tired of this sale/ done a deal with the devil talk .I'm leaving it for now. Over to you Daniel Smith

"I'm saying wait and see if he does sell to the consortium first" - he's potentially helped to make sure that Peterborough Speedway don't run in 2024 and possibly never again. He's done nothing and said nothing. Some people should perhaps tone it down a bit with their vitriol and think before sending but there has been a nasty whiff about 2023. There is only one person who can tell his truth and calm it down. How long do you want angry supporters to wait?
I’ll PM you.

2 hours ago, RogerM22 said:It's not just about this though, is it? Chapman is a piece of work and has been for many years. Is he in bed with AEPG? Maybe, maybe not, but given his history it's a lot more likely than not.
You actually seem like you're struggling internally in this post to carry on defending him, which begs the question of why you still do.
Your words.. “ Is he in bed with AEPG? Maybe, maybe not” Exactly what I’m trying to say.. People are assuming he is already. They don’t know yet..I’m not referring to yourself, and if others posted like you have, then fair enough.
As for struggling internally to carry on defending him.. I know he’s far from perfect, and have given him stick on here in the past over Lynns teams, many times.. He hasn’t done anything as far as I can see to help the current campaign to save the Panthers, which does look bad ,I admit that.. He may well be in bed with AEPG. I don’t know, the same as everyone else. All I’m saying is wait and see before jumping the gun, and finding him guilty. -
4 hours ago, chrismorton said:I have zero interest in anything you have to say..your ears only ever prick up if it's anything to do with defending Chapman or digging our Tomalin and it's boring..I hope he never does anything similar to your club as what he has done to ours...although I'm not 100% actually sure I mean that last bit..
Please feel free to block me, or whatever it's called. If you want another club to fold, just say so, no point beating around the bush.

1 hour ago, Crump99 said:At this stage! That's a good one. He's taken a club down, poached their assets, left genuine Peterborough speedway people (and some would say genuine speedway people) to try to salvage something from the mess that he presided over and left.
His last act is to cling on for some reason to seemingly stop the consortium moving forward. Although the council motion: "To arrange a meeting between the current owners of the Peterborough Panthers Speedway Team" suggests different unless it's a typo?
Chapman deserves everything that he's getting although he is quite welcome to put out a statement of clarification. He did it in the summer when he felt the criticism at that point was unjust. Panthers contract at the EoES has finished, as has the AEPG deadline to clear the site so what's holding him back now?
One can only assume that he doesn't give a stuff and has got everything that he planned and wanted? The floor is his!
I understand your frustration. But people saying he's in bed with them, talking of the dreaded brown envelope, and the name calling are a bit premature, are they not. If it comes out in the end that he has taken their money, and the club was never for sale, then all this he has been getting is fully justified, of course it is.
I'm not saying your wrong. I'm saying wait and see if he does sell to the consortium first. That's all. I know he doesn't seem to be making any effort with the save the club campaign, and that's is not a good look in itself.

10 minutes ago, Bagpuss said:If MPT avoids injury he 100% WILL increase his average.
Massive if though.
I agree. And if he don't go well early doors or gets injured, we have a bit of wiggle room in the points Dept.

8 minutes ago, Daniel Smith said:You're falling in to the 'bad management' trap. Lawson & Harris are decent but on their current averages what do they add?? They have little to no improvement on their averages which will = losing meetings.
I'm sticking my neck out & saying King's Lynn will make top 4 with this septet. If not, 100% the fans will be entertained with Musielak, Tarasenko, Basso & Wojdylo. Having Rowe at No7 will be huge.
Entertained we will be. Top 4, i think we have a chance.

12 minutes ago, Najjer said:Out of interest, is it Buster who is still financing Kings Lynn speedway or is there somebody else involved now funds wise?
ps. I think this is a great looking side, especially at home.
And with around 1.3 under to start with. So maybe wiggle room a bit later on. As for the finances, i don't know. But Buster was paying for 6 of the team last season i guess . I just hope the fans turn up in numbers.

11 hours ago, chrismorton said:Ok what about Lying, crooked P####..is that any better?
I do think your getting carried away posting things like that at this stage! Your probably not helping the cause either.....
Why not wait until you know, before coming out with that? Or do you know the truth already ?

30 minutes ago, Arch Stanton said:Disagree. If the points are there, use them. You can still have average improvers in your team, but the fact is if you’d been a little more ambitious and pushed the boat that little further, you could have had Harris or Richard Lawson instead of MPT. You can’t tell me neither of those two wouldn’t have made this team even stronger by using the available points. Yes I know they’ve agreed deals elsewhere and they may not have even been an option, but on the other hand they may have been if you’d been quicker off the mark.
The team looks ok and has potential, but it could and probably should, have been better. If I were a Lynn fan this would have left me frustrated. Slight missed opportunity for me.
2 British riders agreed, then did U turns. I'll say no more

3 hours ago, Col said:I think the team building start for the Stars is decent. NKI has all the experience you want & Musielak is a #1. Basso should sky rocket and MPT is solid but coming off two poor seasons.
Think KL needs a good second heat leader to keep pressure off the Danes Not sure Tarasenko fits that if he is pencilled in as next signing. Two 6.5ish riders completing the line up hangs Musielak out to dry in 13 & 15.
Unlikely as it maybe what's Robert Lamberts average.
Tarasenko averaged over 8 at home for PB last season. Once dialled in I think he will be good backup at the AFA for Tobi. Away from home won’t be as easy, but you must build a team that is strong at home ,if you don’t want that wooden spoon again, and want to keep the fans turning up week after week. We will be around 1.3 under the limit, which might allow Robert to slot in later in the season.. I’ll admit the last bit is just wishful thinking on my part. If we can get top 4 though, you never know…

3 hours ago, chrismorton said:Funny that our current Idiot owner is splashing the cash at King's Lynn like he has his love back for them...I wonder where he got that from...
Wasn’t he paying for 6 of them last season?? 4 at PB and 2 at Lynn??

From the last pic i've seen (Early Nov,) the fence was being dismantled. Most of the shale had been bladed off, but the track and floodlights still there. I don't know what it looks like now though

19 minutes ago, TTT said:Going to be a team way under the limit if Phil The Ace is right about W. Lampart because Zagar and S. Worrall are certs apparently, No rumour about Z. Cook going anywhere else either.
1. 10.39 left
2. Z. Cook 5.10
3. S. Worrall 6.44
4. T. Brennan 5.87
5. M. Zagar 7.20
6. W. Lampart 5.00
7. RS
As a Lynn fan, that team looks good to me. They ain't gonna go 2 points under, surely.

2 hours ago, Speedball said:And it’s the “one other” that will make or break this team in my opinion.
A rider like Thomson would be an amazing coup on 5.53. MPT after two injury affected seasons, not so much so unfortunately.
Edit: Well the announcement has put that to bed. Nice to dream for a few days.
I think a 100% fit MPT should put something on his 5.13(if he is fit). Having said that we have over a point to play with. Agree with Thomson, but considering the trouble we was in at the back end of last season, i'll take that team, with room for a change maybe, at some time.

3 minutes ago, szkocjasid said:Don't know where you got that number from, should be 5.53 converted. While I'd expect Thomsen's average to be re-assessed, Lambert & Lindsey, Kasprzak & Pedersen's (from 2011) averages weren't re-assesed. So who knows?
My bad he averaged 6.62 in 2015. He did average 8.29 in 16. Giving him a converted average of 5.53.

2 hours ago, castrolargh said:Museilak, Tarasenko and woydlo with maybe an AndersThomson thrown in if no klindt( if that fits)would be nice
On his converted Champ average from 2015-16 at PB would be 4.41. But id imagine he would be an assessed 8 now. If that's the case, then no. I'd expect MPT to fill the spot.
