he wasnt in the team at the end of last season and isnt being introduced mid season so the quoted rule is irrelevant . -

Proctor plus 1 -
Apart from anyone signing Bartosz Smarzlik, or possibly Emil ,which I cant see happening , I personally dont think there is another rider out there that would stir up as much interest as Nicki P. Fantastic signing for the Tigers , a real statement of intent and full credit to them for getting him to put pen to paper He is most definitely a rider you want riding for you , not against you and will no doubt kick up a storm on more than one occasion next season Something that has been sadly lacking in british speedway. Welcome back Nicki . At last , a villain to boo !

the idiot with flag changes direction and walks directly into craig cooks path.as a result , an angry( and rightly so ) cook barges aforementioned idiot and no doubt swears at him as well. If he head butted the idiot whilst wearing a helmet , the idiot would have been on his @rse

King's Lynn vs Peterborough. Thursday July 25th
castrolargh replied to Bald Bloke's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
The trouble is , the track is TOO grippy meaning the person that gets out on front on a fast bike cant be caught unless he makes a mistake, as the track has nothing to give.Ride the fastest line , race over. It's only when the track is prepared slicker(very rare) or left alone to settle and develop racing lines that we see better racing and even then its flat out round the boards to get anywhere. Obviously this is only my opinion, but the track is too grippy with relatively long straights and tighter bends compared to other tracks that produce closer racing with the modern engines Apart from Peterborough which now also seems to be a flat out super fast track.The riders always seem to praise the track as its great to ride , apparently, but it's not great as a spectacle any more -
King's Lynn vs Peterborough. Thursday July 25th
castrolargh replied to Bald Bloke's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I was there last night .Very poor crowd for a local derby which turned out to be boring . if I hadn't met up with the usual friends I would most probably have left at the interval.No atmosphere , crap track, terrible racing. Good to see Ty back on form though. -

Kings Lynn v Belle Vue Monday 24th June
castrolargh replied to GAH's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
My opinion of last night.For what it's worth. As a whole the meeting ran smoothly, with far less tractor racing , making the speedway races flow more. A bonus on last weeks drawn out affair. Just about right I think. The racing itself was a bit gate and go but that's nothing unusual at Lynn these days , but as the stars had the upper hand, didnt SEEM as bad as a home supporter. Robert was about par for this season Mpt much better Ty probably had his best meeting Tj inconsistent again Cookie rode well Lewi looks to have turned the corner(no pun intended) Simon beat his opposite number and that's about all I'll say about that. As a point of interest his scores home and away are almost identical to Kaspers were, but kaspers contributions were far more valuable in my opinion, as they were scored away from home . As for the Aces Fricke and Bjerre were class , as expected , really pleased to see Dan Bewley win heat 15 and looking as comfortable as he did , but Stevie Worrall looks a shadow of what he was, Wells was the worst I've seen him since his Coventry days , berge never looked in the mix and I was looking forward to seeing Lidsey but he didnt show up! Still think we need a couple of changes though or it's an early bath for the Stars of '19 -
As far as I'm aware, Ty still has a higher rolling average then Erik so he could be replaced that way , hopefully leaving enough spare to get a half decent No 7

Ipswich Vs Kings Lynn Thursday 20th June
castrolargh replied to Arch Stanton's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League

King's Lynn v Ipswich 17/06/2019
castrolargh replied to tellboy's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
1 good race, heat 15.Up to the interval it was dire. hole on bends 1 and 2 caused problems and bends 3 and 4 cookie especially struggled on. Bomber looked superb and should have ridden at #5 for the witches , putting him in heat 13 which could have won them the match.Far too much tractor racing and far too drawn out -
cook for Proctor and keep Andersen, or cook for Proctor and starkey / Ryan douglas for Kerr running r/r until Erik returns would have made for a stronger team

Or just that the new averages dont come in till the 1st june
