Kings Lynn v Poole. Prem 19/9/19

I can see Cook at King's Lynn in 2020.

Dale talked well of Cook and understands fully the issues Craig is dealing with. I get the feeling Dale would be happy to help him out and play a protective figure to Cook. It may well be what Cook needs also. 

Below would be a good team to start the season and then make a few changes if needed as the season goes by. 

1. R.Lambert 8.04

2. R.Worrall 5.22

3. R.Schlein 7.18

4. E.Riss 6.61

5. C.Cook 8.00

6. B.Nichol 4.00

7. A.Morris 3.32

Ave: 42.37

What ever Lynn do they have got to move a few Lynn track specialist's on if the want to compete. They have to many.

To early to say. Cook to BV ?, Don't know if Rory would be keen/. Don't think Lambo will do UK. Worrall looks weak.

Although Erik has been a lot  better at home, he is on the up. Would be my first signing.

Lambo would be my second ……...But not sure he will do the UK in 2020.

Charles Wright would be another. On 6.58 . He has averaged almost the same away as at the Showground this season. Lynn need points on the road.

 Ash Morris has achieved his level I think.

Nick Morris is on a keen average.

Who knows. But I hope Buster puts more into Lynn after last seasons promise, he  said he will try and do one better in 2019...…. What happened... He bought 2 more clubs.....:unsure:

I think the only way Robert wouldn’t do the UK is in the unlikely event that he got a GP wildcard pick. Won’t have the World U21 stuff next year and it seems he likes to be busy so can’t see him reducing his schedule to two leagues. There is of course the possibility that he may want to move to Germany as his permanent residence and not ride here but you’d imagine his income from Lynn matches is pretty significant as one of the league’s top riders and the man who many Lynn supporters turn up to see. Scary to think what might happen to our crowds if he didn’t return. 

Can see the logic in Daniel’s team but would be reluctant to start the season with two riders coming back from significant injuries who have both missed a large chunk of this season. Like the idea of Charles Wright, has always ridden Lynn well.

I think that that ship has also sailed - despite his public comments Buster "no longer bleeds King's Lynn " ( a nostalgic attachment of course ) but his focus is elsewhere and widespread and his ambitions for UK speedway do not settle around the success of the Stars.

Nick Morris has been openly critical of the KL track on Twitter recently, so he may need a little bit of convincing! ;)Sure he'll be back at Swindon now their track is better prepared.

Lisa if riders Poole had to go with riders who hadn’t been critical of the Poole track they would be looking for 7 new riders from overseas for next season.

As for Nick Morris, not one Id wanna see at Lynn

I thought the same but he accepted a guest offer. Maybe bridges have been rebuilt. 

Rory is an exceptional team man and everywhere he goes he makes sure team spirit is in abundance. 

I'd have Rory in at a drop of a hat, good home and away. 

Rory would bring stability, he'd be my first signing.

You can never say never in speedway, I’m sure if Rory was squeezed out at Wolves and Lynn made him an offer he’d be back. That said not a rider I’d be too keen to see back, would rather go with fresh faces and a new direction. 

Nick Morris will be back at Swindon I’m sure. 

As fir Buster, whatever you think of him he rescued the top division in its current format and it goes without saying that pumping money into our two local rivals will have compromised what he could spend on the Lynn team. Don't see that changing until Ipswich and P’boro are moved on to fresh owners.

The team wasn’t right at the start of the season, Buster stayed loyal to certain riders.  Some may say he took the easy option with the starting 7.  I am not sure trying to throw money at the problem would have helped as there were little option’s out there to bring in.

Didn't Schlein say last year he would be retiring at the end of this season?

Just sayin' ;) Although whilst he was criticising it, Sam Masters said it was good, so was pretty funny!

Rory was the best team man we ever had.  Captain,  Manager, Motivator,  Friend,  he was all of those positions.   The only problem we had was Buster.   When a rider or representative, voices an  opinions contrary to Buster ideas there is only one outcome.   and that's the Stars biggest problem.   I cant see us ever winning anything until we have a new Manager with new ideas and a new team.     Buster has to be a silent partner and concentrates solely on being Chairman of the BSPA.   We need a new broom...      

The new manager's first job would be to get a new track man, and then signup  Riss and MPT.   Unless Lambert can give total commitment , then he can join the rest, they have had too many chances and need to go.    

Am fed up, always being a bridesmaid....      I am in no doubt if we had  Ford and Middo in charge we would be successful.....
