What's been good over the last four years.....well 2018 was very good and we only missed out on the title because of injuries in the Pkay Offs, we were comfortably the best team despite being tipped to finish bottom. Robert Lambert. Thomas Jorgensen. Richard Lawson. Signing Sam Hagon. All positives, far outweighed by negatives I'd agree but positives nonetheless. And all of those I've been positive about, apart from Hagon as I know zero about him. So, what's been said that's ott?? Has the club deteriorated since Jonathan Chapman?? Has the club deteriorated further since Lyon left also?? Is the racing anywhere near good enough for admission prices charged?? Is there any kind of atmosphere around the stadium?? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nobody's perfect I'm constantly called a bad fan, talk nonsense etc etc but nothing is ever argued to put King's Lynn Speedway in a positive way. So, what's been good about King's Lynn Speedway for the last 4 years?? As Bagpuss has outlined.Plus the racing was OK Monday but you seemed to differ to most.For all the stick you and a couple of others give Trees on her opinions,you are no better but the polar opposite. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've been 5 or 6 times in the last 10 years It does always appear "too grippy" when I watch the racing from KL.. The inside in particular being grippy means "follow the leader" racing.. Fast racing certainly, but not very watchable.. Then the inside slickens off and the racing becomes "pretty decent" when compared to anywhere.. Not sure its worth grading the track too much after the inside has become slick to be honest as pulling the dirt line back then creates the inside grippy line again for a couple of heats.. And KL do seem to like a good old tractor grade dont they? Starting with a bit less material on the track, (dont hear that too often!), and a couple of less tractor grades, and, given the shape, the racing would be pretty good I would say.. Maybe not as good as I used to watch far too many years ago, but worth watching nevertheless.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You need to re read some threads. I will praise when justified, & criticise when justified. I've even defended the guy who runs the club on this forum who's the reason I don't go anymore, that's called open minded. Trees is just all rose tint glasses. I'm still waiting for where I've gone OTT though?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
