Swindon look perilous with number of matches ridden, so Belle Vue need Wolves to get nothing from these matches so Bewley or Fricke would be best option. Cook is too unpredictable. R/r too risky for double header Can't have Fricke or Cook. It's Bewley,Worrall or Tungate.I would go for Bewley.Never seen anyone push Lambert so hard in a race at Lynn like last week than Bewley.

Last season as a season ticket holder I was proper ripped off and I have a right to be bitter. This season the management has made promise after promise for things they shouldn't be promising. They think they can call the shots on the Dane's own rider's. Who do they really think they are??? They're now reaping what they sow. They were warned but think they knew better. I have NO sympathy for the management of King's Lynn Stars. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ouch 1,191 Posted August 17, 2018 Buster cost me £1000. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel Smith 5,659 Posted August 17, 2018 About £42 down on those that paid on the gate. This season's season ticket holder's are also down, currently £27 on those that pay at the gate. Then we're likely to see the Leicester fixture in September become a double header due to lack of available dates so that's likely to increase further. 10 minutes ago, Bald Bloke said: How much did you loose due to Buster.

Us the mugs they call fans! I for one didn't criticise the double header as it's obvious that there aren't many other options and I was actually looking forward to it. Iversen now missing = Joke!! But as we've already been told, hindsight is a wonderful thing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That says it all - anyone who lays there hard earned cash out up front to a speedway club for a season ticket should be looked after as a most valued fan the club should be bending over backwards for any season ticket holders not s$$t on them from the highest level . Feel really sad that as a club Kings Lynn treats it season ticket holders in such a way . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Personally, I hope the weather is glorious and he does lose money hand over fist, it's not short of what the management deserve over the last couple of seasons. Treat fan's with respect and they will get that in return. Treat fan's with contempt, expect $#!+ to fly back in your face. With comments like yours, you should be ashamed of yourself wishing for a club to lose money. IF I was BC & read your post, even if you decided to visit Lynn again, I would give you a LIFE time ban Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g13webb 4,254 Posted August 18, 2018 (edited) This season could have been the best we have witnessed for a long time. Eight teams, all of similar strength and each capable of winning matches. It was even suggested each team had a chance of winning the league. It was to be that competitive. The FIM had opened the door, prioritising our race days, giving us the freedom of fixture planning. The ball was firmly in BSPA's court to make this a season to remember. Then WHAM !! at the AGM , the members take a vote that destroys everything. This vote should never have been sanctioned. The BSPA should have been strong enough to implement the FIM guidelines, and instructed teams that the FRN will be Monday and Thursdays. The fixture schedule would be free to use every week to amply plan the fixtures, even giving allowances for cancellations. That vote on Wed or Thurs, although it was seen only as a preferred race night for CL teams, was in actual fact far greater importance than that. It was a vote on not using Danish riders and riding on a night we have no priority. It was obvious from the outset this could only create problems. Talk about a sport shooting it self in the foot. Here we are with less then a 3 weeks to go, and we still have 22 matches to run. That in its self is an utter farce. There is no way all these fixture will be completed. The first of DH's has been arranged for next week, and because of that vote about priority, there will be riders missing.. If teams are unable to fulfil their fixtures, the season loses all creditability. What could have been a monumental season is destined to end in disaster. All because of that mindless VOTE !!!
