    Kings Lynn 2018..

    I've not posted on here for months and look what happens LOL! All I can do is laugh if not I'd cry. Can't say any more!
  2. Will be my first visit to Wolves on Monday too. KLSSC are running a minibus so I thought why not go. Saves me or my dad driving for once. P.S. we still have three seats left for anyone who wants to go. £15 per seat for KLSSC members and £18 per seat for non members. Please message either myself or Trees or go to our social media outlets on Twitter and Facebook.
  3. It will be better than nowt for me anyway. At the moment, I've paid for something that I have not seen and not been given a refund. I've held out in the hope that I could always make the rearranged date after the July one was called off. Now I'm unsure how I would get my refund...IF Leicester really don't have any money in reserve at all and can't even pay riders to attend!
  4. I've still got my tickets from July so will keep holding out in the hope that this meeting does actually take place...

    Peterborough Panthers 2017

    Not brilliant in my view...

    Kings Lynn V Poole Elb 13/09/16

    It's the last home meeting we have I believe...
  7. Have to say, I expected nothing to come from our reserves, especially when we were told Knight was in for Holub, but I thought Cook, Bjerre and Thomsen did their jobs. Hall was kinda useless but to be honest, I didn't want him in the first place (sorry Mr Hall but just not a fan ) But the real issue here was Ostergaard being in a heatleader position and only scoring a total of 4 points. Now he doesn't need telling that that is pretty pants... And it's not the first time in recent meetings: v Redcar at no. 3 = 6, v Newcastle at no. 5 = 7+1. He gradually deteriorated. He would be OK as a second string, but I certainly don't feel that he is a heatleader anymore.
  8. Good job I decided to make the decision to just cancel my hotel well before 1pm whether there was an official call off post or not. Its bad that neither club officially posted or released news that it was off on the website... We had to wait to hear from Nicolai Klindt, the leader of the opposition to tell us via a tweet from his racing team Twitter account so I thank him for being fairly prompt anyway.

    Poole V Kings Lynn Elb. 7/09/16

    That is bloody appalling! I thought he'd broken a rib? That's what I'd seen mentioned on Twitter. I have seen the massive bruise picture that Nicklas shared on Twitter too. It looks bad.

    Kings Lynn V Poole

    That could well be why they went for Tuesday 13th instead then... We can race on Thursdays too mostly nowadays but I'm guessing that the 15th also wasn't a good option for whatever reason?
  11. Heading up for this after the Leicester v King's Lynn EL fixture on Saturday. The last PLRC I got to was in 2014. The line up is really good so hopefully it'll be a good evening of racing Will also be nice to catch up with a few PL team fans who I don't see much of these days

    Kings Lynn V Poole

    Could well be another meeting where we are lambs to the slaughter quite possibly so I wouldn't be too surprised to see the crowd number down compared to usual, plus the fact it's on a completely different race night to normal...oh and the season was over long ago in terms of doing anything i.e getting into the play offs anyway! Despite all that, I'll be there It's a long winter!

    Kings Lynn V Poole

    Can confirm it's Tuesday 13th September. I got a text about it (well, a friend did anyway who still gets call off alerts etc via her number). Will be interesting to see what the line ups will be for this date...
  14. Steam locomotive "Oliver Cromwell" has overrun it's overhaul and the new date should hopefully be in early October so the Railway Touring Company have told me. I just hope it's on a Saturday like the original as if not, going mid-week could be a problem what with my working hours/days...and I've already forked out a few hundred quid on that too King's Lynn v Poole is Tuesday 13th September by the way I'm just happy I can now make this coming Saturday instead of being out of pocket. And funnily enough, this kind of saga is exactly what I thought might end up happening for some people and was something I wanted to avoid at all costs. I'm just glad I kept hold of my tickets! Leicester should have just given people their cash back or whatever on the night. It would have saved an awful lot of hassle for many people in my view. But then again, in they're in financial straits then is it any wonder they were reluctant to pass money back over to fans in July? Not really!
  15. Looks like I won't need to worry about chasing them for a refund after all. The chartered steam tour I had booked for 10th September has now been postponed with the new date TBC, possibly in early October, so now I can make the rearranged fixture thank goodness. Fingers crossed that the weather now behaves itself!
  16. Very funny. I'd just like to know that I can get my money back, but looks as though that isn't likely to happen!

    What Is Going On At Leicester

    I'm one King's Lynn fan that can't make the rearranged date of September 10th, nor can I make any of the other meetings that they have left. I've still got my tickets from July, but I'm now reluctant to send them back seeing as others fans are still waiting for refunds about a month later...

  19. Just thought I'd make a very shameless plug for the newly founded official Kings Lynn Stars Supporters Club (KLSSC) - founded in early June - seeing as I'm dealing with the social media side of things and want to get word out to as many fans as possible about our existence! The supporters club is run by a small group of fans for the fans, but we are fully endorsed by the management of King's Lynn Speedway. We hope to bring the supporters and club together as one with full support from the management. Our base on race nights will be around the area of the Adrian Flux Arena bar - we could be inside the bar however if the weather isn't so good. We run a 50/50 draw - £1 a strip or 5 for £3. As of 30th June, the 50/50 table will be next to where programmes are sold, immediately after you enter through the turnstiles. The rest of the supporters club will be on another table around the bar area. Here, there will be hand held chequered blue and yellow flags on sale for £5 each. This is also where we will be accepting applications for new members who want to join, as well as selling tickets etc for social events that we will be organising. Benefits of being a member: - Discounts off all events organised and ran by the committee - Discounts off any away travel organised by the committee - A membership card - Commemorative badge (first 100 adult members each year will receive a badge dated with the year) and commemorative keyring (for junior members) (subject to availability) - Birthday card signed by the riders - The chance to watch a race on the centre during a meeting - picked at random - The chance for junior members to be a mascot for the evening - picked at random - The chance to pick and present your rider of the night with their award and receive a commemorative photo - picked at random Please note that the membership cards and birthday cards are still in the process of being produced (in batches). Membership prices (yearly): Adults (18 years+) £10 Concessions (students, disabled and OAPs - with proof of ID) £8 Young member (under 18 years) £5 We are also open to suggestions for further events and what we can do to help the club - we have a suggestions box at our table during meetings to leave suggestions in and you can contact us by using any of the methods mentioned below to pass on your ideas/thoughts.

  20. If you've gone up there, they definitely need to lock up their daughters
  21. Wolves should win this meeting. Having Iversen there will help, but I still think we'll lose
  22. Nope. No receipt. Just the tickets. Peterborough don't issue tickets, just a printed receipt that gets hole punched when you go through into the stadium, for example. Lynn don't issue receipts either though, just tickets, so Leicester aren't alone. The idea of swapping with someone instead of asking for a refund might be good...IF anyone is really bothered about going and missed the original date, but we've been performing rather poorly just lately and people might not be interested in going back anyway
  23. I know it's happened elsewhere. I suppose I could try advertising on Twitter or Facebook to see if anyone wants them. £18 for the adult ticket and £15 for the concession ticket is too much to throw away. I paid by cash. But that shouldn't make any difference. It does say in their programme that readmission tickets can be used the following year...but as Mimmo said, what with the promotion situation up in the air, would they allow the use of the tickets next year? I doubt that.
  24. I don't know of any Lynn fans that want to step back into that stadium again after the fiasco in July! I have one adult ticket and one concession here though if anyone is interested which I highly doubt it!
