Guest Posted July 28, 2013 The big question - Will `The Kings` Win their FIRST ever competitive fixture (National League) ??And will the weather behave itself?

waco 1,026 Posted July 28, 2013 Charles Wright is in tremendous form and will take some beating ,he will be ably backed by Adam Mckinna a usefull performer on his day. The youngsters in both teams may hold the key to the result of this match ,,,.We now have a more solid top 4 and if Adam and Connor can continue their improvement and pick up points against Buxton,s lower order i think we will get home, Jack Kingston needs to calm down a bit and stop throwing points away ,He has ability but i feel he over rides and then falls ,sometimes in good point scoring positions ..The team needs those points,and he can get them, its called using your head , I sincerly hope all the riders have a good safe meeting and the paramedic arrives in time for the match to be completed 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ben91 1,743 Posted July 28, 2013 Whenever I've seen Jack Kingston this season I've been impressed. Waco is right that he needs to settle for points sometimes rather than keep pushing on for more and coming unstuck, however he clearly has heart and you know he's going to be in there giving his all. He's shown lots of positive signs and he's gonna be a half decent rider I'm sure. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greyhoundp 990 Posted July 28, 2013 (edited) Yes the Kings have a more solid look about them now, but Buxton had the result of the season last week at Mildenhall, this meeting is close to call, but much will depend on the 2 No1,s Steve and Charles, Im going to predict this is meeting The Kings will gain a very narrow win. Jack Kingston is a young lad, who is keen, however no points are ever given, but they are sometimes lost, jack needs to realise he is the junior of Kings 2 reserves, and as such 3rd place is all that he is required to get for now, and he has 4 laps to get that point, good luck to both Teams.

Maybe Jack feels like he is living in Kirby's shadow and it isn't where he wants to be. Should you stifle enthusiasm in this league? or should you let the rider develop at his own pace, in his own way? Richie Worrall was forever falling off in his first season now look where he is and then there is Josh Bates and he isn't doing to badly now.

Dave de Gernier 1 Posted July 29, 2013 Fingers crossed the rain stays away, both met office and yahoo weather are saying it should be dry, but we all know how accurate forecasts can be. Looking forward to tonight's meeting, my in laws are coming down from Essex to their first meeting at Kent Kings, so hopefully it will be a good meeting and they'll be converted from lakeside fans Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
