Beowulf 1,513 Posted September 18, 2014 Was KK rubbish on small tracks? Theres probably not a track that KK couldn't beat the home number 1 on yet in another meeting lose to their reserves. He's just a confidence rider. He certainly had trouble at Monmore for a long time. Also on one occasion when the track was wet, he just didn't want to know and let his team down badly.

SCB 0 Posted September 18, 2014 He certainly had trouble at Monmore for a long time. Also on one occasion when the track was wet, he just didn't want to know and let his team down badly. So he can't ride Monmore = can't ride small tracks? He's ridden for BV and Lakeside in this country, he has scored maximums at Eastbourne as an away rider. It's nothing to do with track size with KK.

It's nothing to do with track size with KK. I'm sure he's had poor scores at Lakeside also. Moot point anyway, no need to dig for scores. He is currently riding very well in the GP's but I can't get my head round the thought of him as world champion. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BWitcher 12,453 Posted September 18, 2014 (edited) He certainly had trouble at Monmore for a long time. Also on one occasion when the track was wet, he just didn't want to know and let his team down badly. To be fair, he could tootle around at the back before giving up on lap 3, and wipe the floor with Lindgren at his best in the same meeting. Granted, there was more of the former. All about attitude with KK I think. Not a rider I would want in my team and completely agree.. would not be a rider I'd want as World Champion for the sport!

SCB 0 Posted September 18, 2014 woffy is committed, the amount of times he's rode for wolves with injury , poles cry off with a sore toe What about the times he has raced in a GP but not a league meeting either side? Or the time he rode in Poland rather than for Wolves at Eastbourne? If KK with his poor scores in the UK is uncommitted then so if Woffy with his poor scores in the UK while riding well in Poland, Sweden and the GPs! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EnglishRoundabout 1,752 Posted September 18, 2014 KK is a class act when at his best. He beats the best at almost every track, no matter what the shape or size. He has an immaculate style and looks silky smooth. However, he is unreliable, inconsistent and untrustworthy. KK has let every EL club down that he has ridden for (although Aces fans seem to remember him more fondly than his more recent clubs) I do recall Chris Morton being very critical of him in his final few meetings for Bellevue however. His loyalty in the EL is atrocious and he is a major risk as a signing for any club. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

His loyalty in the EL is atrocious and he is a major risk as a signing for any club. He was excellent all year for us until the last few matches when we signed crump. KK saw his ass and sulked. He's still one of my favourite belle vue riders in recent years. Great style. And he was fast and he was fantastic at all small tracks barring wolves Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stratton 1,491 Posted September 18, 2014 Remember seeing KK at a Swindon press day when he first signed pure quality god he was impressive.Since his Swindon time i have never been a fan,and he should of never ever got a testimonial in this country that was a joke.Endless other riders over the years at all levels deserved one more than him never ever got one do i want him as a WC a big no.
