blueherb777 571 Posted November 22, 2013 Paul Hurry did retire on doctors' orders I believe but I think he was saying last year that he MAY return.. Hurry riding for the Kings would be quite something!!! I would like Paul to be team Manager.A younger ex-rider to gee team up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

whistlegang 88 Posted November 22, 2013 It's good to see the Kent Kings website was back in action on Sunday (November 17 2013). now the rye house team has been all but sorted will Kent be announcing theirs/anything? or will we be providing another rider before they commit ahem?

Hector Austin 51 Posted November 22, 2013 Surely EVEN you can understand that until the NL AGM, it is highly unlikely that sides will start announcing riders for 2014 man! Do you see any other clubs announcing their sides??Na me neither so chill yea Perhaps a little less picking wholes in Lenny Silver on here and by the same folks including ya ex photographer on ya facebok site and things may be more forthcoming from the promotion. Remember y have a great club, had a good first year and now will I m sur will go from strength ta strength guys, so chill yaselves enjoy da winter and Christmas and all will be told when redy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whistlegang 88 Posted November 22, 2013 learning all the time! certainly not picking any holes. glad we are back on topic. any more suggestions on boxall replacement? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nikko 181 Posted November 23, 2013 Normally it's not until Jan or Feb that NL teams start announcing riders, although with the NL AGM being this side of Xmas it could be earlier. The Kings press officer published on their twitter feed a few weeks ago that the promotion had said there would be no news until into the New Year so guess it will be a while yet, but you never know. And Hector do you really think the promotion are not saying anything because people have different opinions to them? That's pathetic, they don't care what people think or say on the internet and I have heard that directly from the promotion themselves. People are allowed different opinions and have the right to voice them on here FB or whatever, and who they are is irrelevant. Personally, I'm looking forward to seeing who the Kings will be in 2014 and will be paying my money each week to support to lads. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

whistlegang 88 Posted November 23, 2013 come and sit with the whistle gang nikko. Simon won the Laurels in fact that final heat win over boxall (who did so well to pass lykke) was worth the entrance fee on its own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kent Whistle Gang 58 Posted November 26, 2013 I was going to throw Jerran Hart into the mix but the pillock has got himself thrown into jail for 3 years. He would have been an excellent replacement for Stevie B. Maybe Ben Morley's experiences in Australia will prepare him for stepping up to the plate. I'm convinced that Benji Compton on new machinery will easily put a couple of points on his average. Just hope Kings can keep hold of him. Jack Kingston is another rider with the potential to increase his average - we'd be looking to him to double his 2013 figure. David Mason is still a must for me - he was the catalyst for the turn around in our fortunes this year. He still has so much to offer the team IMO. That leaves us short of a heat leader, a second string, and 2 reserves. Adam Kirby has the head for speedway but, sadly, not the bodyshape currently. He needs to find some way to shed at least a stone in weight if he's going to be competitive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rebel1 72 Posted November 26, 2013 I know this is the silly season, however, with the AGM yet to come and the better NL riders of the past season being positioned in EL clubs I wonder what effect it will have on rider availability. At least for heat leader positions. As for the past thoughts on grass to speedway, I remember Alfie Hagon, top rider on grass, second string standard on shale. That is my memory holds good.
