Our 3rd best rider so far this season, reliably consistent, captain & local lad. Yes he gets injured regularly but that's part & parcel of the sport. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Speedball 566 Posted July 3, 2021 Think Kerr signed a 2 year deal at the start of the season. The thing we desperately need is to find a Number 1 from somewhere. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the landscape will change again next year post Covid lockdowns... Poland will be more than happy to keep the 'one club plus us' rule and Sweden will be back playing in front of crowds again and paying more than the UK per meeting... Might not need a "No1" if that is the case... Lets be honest, only Jack Holder and Dan Bewley would be classed as anything like a "No1" rider level this year anyway, and both may at the end of this year see taking the Woffinden and Lambert route of just testing themselves against the best (rather than dropping back levels each week) as best for their development and ambition... Maybe get Batch back? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Technik 476 Posted July 3, 2021 I think things on the Polish front may be different next year. Whilst the top riders earning big money might be happy to race in Poland & one other league there are a lot of squad members that do not get to ride each week & I think the Poles plan might just backfire when those riders decide it might be better to race more often for less promised money than to not race & not get paid at all. Already Adam Ellis is racing in both British Leagues & I think when some of the other European riders understand that being able to race in British, Danish, Swedish, German & Czech leagues & any other events could accelerate their progress. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do not think Kerr should be back next season. What difference does any rider racing at Lynn make to you, you don't go anymore ..... 100% Kerr should be back! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
25yearfan 476 Posted July 4, 2021 I can't believe those criticising Kerr! Hes been one of the few King's Lynn riders who can hold his head up and know that hes performed this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I still follow the Norwich Stars who evolved into KL Stars and will be back when I deem it to be safely run for the Vulnerable Elderly ( being one of those ). I have supported The Stars since I was six years old. You assume too much and come across as bitter, unless fans buy a season ticket ( wether they go or not! ). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Out of interest what do you consider to be 'safely run for the vulnerable elderly' and what needs to be done that isn't at the moment which would encourage you to return?
