Is it me or is there a hint we may have Nicki Pedersen in the team since they are standing in front of his bike ?

Sincerely hope not! Jeez!

He's one of my all time favourite Lynn riders and I'd rather keep those memories.

Can only see him returning in 2018 as a shadow of his former self after recent injury.

This will be his last year in the GP's too, I believe retirement at the end of the season will be for him.

So, Nicki is also a no thanks from me too

It's not a rrack spare as doesn't meet regulations but it is Nicki's old bike from 2007

Good work;).My guess would be in in his office or VIP box/lounge or whatever they call them.

Next week my guess Kasper Andersen and Lewis Kerr will be announced 

I think your right.Several weeks agoLewis made a fundraising page hoping to raise £9k for a new bike etc for the 2018 season.He stated then that he had been offered a team place at Lynn for 2018.The page promptly disappeared though.

Yes it is in his office upstairs but buster loves Nicki Pedersen and Pedersen loves the Lynn track that’s why there have been rumours of him coming back for the last few years. He said it did not fit in with his commitments back then but now they have fixed race nights things may be different

I might be in the minority,and as exciting as Nicki is to watch,coming back from a bad injury on a 9 point average? I wouldn't have him.Would be ok on a 7 though:D

After all the moaning on here I would expect it to be one of "those" particular members of this forum........... they can then set about delivering what they have claimed should be "easy"!!

Lets be honest no one could do much worse than the last few season on the media front . Fingers crossed this is the beginning of a new dawn .

It is a veru very easy job.

The issue is what parameters you have to work with.

There's not going to be a mass budget to really deliver whats required

I see a degree in English is required, that will be difficult to find in Norfolk and is definitely an essential requirement for Speedway.  :lol:

I'd have thought an indepth knowledge of speedway would have been more important than a degree in English. And of course, the ability to create dank memes.

I'd love it if Nicki did come back!!! He was my favourite when he rode for us. My dad stopped going when we dropped to the 2nd tier. As a casual fan that's fair enough. But he's always saying if Nicki returned he would. I'd doubt it would happen though but I'd buzz! A nostalgia thing I'd guess. Surely it would have been easy to have got a generic KLS bike cover in the picture though.

I can't quite agree there. If he was on a sensible average, and bearing in mind the lack of other GP riders in the UK, I would have thought he has a point to prove, and may want to go out on a high, rather than with a wimper. He is a very determined character!  If he could regain some sort of form, he is quite capable of wiping the floor with many riders (not literally) I think he still holds the track record at Saddlebow Road? I think its highly unlikely we shall see him at Lynn, but who knows what the new Promotion has in mind? He would certainly put bums on seats, mine included.
