King's Lynn Stars 2020

[TINYS 278]

We need 5 changes for next season and that includes the 2 that have just come in.

Two changes.  Barker and Anderson in Heeps and Wells gone.    Will that offer that much improvement ?

Whether it does or doesn't at least the management are not sitting on their ars£$ and letting the season just drift along.I would think most fans that are attending wanted to see something like this to happen.

Not sure but Kasper could'nt ride the track last time he was here so we will see, fingers crossed.

Obvious opportunity for sponsorship from Lidl who could supply one of their checkout conveyors for rider involved in changes

That makes a number of changes for one team of 7 infact 8 if you include the TM change also ,  wonder if thats a record in British speedway 

I think Lynn probably beat that back in 2002 in Waggy's last season, must have used twenty odd riders.

Is the track slicker now though? Was talked about last year and the racing seems to have been better from what people have said. I think it was the grip that he couldn't handle.

Love the KL press release today

Moving at this time means Heeps and Wells will be available to other Premiership sides in a reasonable timeframe should they be of interest.

Now honestly which Premiership club in their right mind is going to be interested in signing either of these two this year.

Heeps has been utterly dreadful since he arrived from Ipswich and Wells hasn’t really cut at reserve either.

Possibly we'll see.

You say that,,, but I've read quite a few posts from Ipswich fans wishing him back in the team.

TBF, Heaps rode ok at Foxhole last week. Unfortunately it's proven to be a flash in the pan. Maybe trying to sell himself back to his previous employer...

Hoping Kasper has had a chance to develop further since his first spell with us. 

And you have to wonder if Wells and Heaps knew about the change before Monday, hence their poor returns (again)

Whether they knew before or not they would have still given the same poor performances imo.

If they knew they were getting dropped they'd want to score maximums so another team signs them up!

I guess that's more polite than saying, they're past it & should concentrate on Championship matches!
