Both trying to outdo each other with doctored tracks. Lynn making it ultra grippy and Somerset making it the inside line only. Might not make a thrilling final though. Of course the lumps, bumps and holes of Wimborne Road fit nicely into this argument too. Let’s hope Belle Vue don’t bugger about with their magnificent track eh? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Danny Connor 351 Posted September 5, 2018 Same track for everybody. At least we know what we could expect there now if we were to meet them in the playoffs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please remind me again how many titles Kings Lynn have won in that period? Struggling to think of one. Leave them alone Steve. They cannot think of anything sensible to say so they come out with the old line. No such thing as choking when you get to this stage.. Thats all i will say..

Looks to be a cracking end to the season. May the best team win.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not scoring not earning, he's not been earning a whole lot in Poland either.. Good riders do not become bad riders overnight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So do you not think Matt could pay him an agreed amount regardless of score so that he can be fitted into the team next year, providing the team reaches its objective an individual riders score does not matter . Maybe if Rosco had done something similar with certain riders at the start of the season Swindon could have bought in a better reserve for the majority of the season. I would have done that.

Im not party to any of what they get fixed or points. But im sure that either way, Brady would want to perfom better for his own self esteem. Remember, he's having a mare in Poland as well, and you know what they are like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
