beckettlion 195 Posted January 7, 2016 But who? Nicki has said no, Niels the same, Kildemand like Niels has said no. Bjarne is at Lakeside. Other than those who is left? Larsen? MJJ? Neither are number ones are they? Kenneth bjerre is Danish Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bagpuss 10,805 Posted January 7, 2016 But who? Nicki has said no, Niels the same, Kildemand like Niels has said no. Bjarne is at Lakeside. Other than those who is left? Larsen? MJJ? Neither are number ones are they? Shouldn't have typed number one, meant 'final rider' really. We aren't going to sign somebody with a higher average than Batchelor as nobody of that ilk wants to come. I'd love it to be Kenni Larsen, either he or Madsen or possibly MJJ look to be the best of whats left. I certainly think Larsen could put a decent chunk on his starting average next year if he came over judging by some of his performances in Sweden last year.

Hope it's Larsen, be good to see him back in the EL. I feel sorry for you if it's MJJ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Woz01 3,589 Posted January 8, 2016 I think Larsen should be considered a number 1, he's a much better rider than he was when he was last riding here. King's Lynn will have a decent side if they sign him. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

King's Lynn will have a decent side if they sign him. Depends on the other reserve but we would certainly have a decent top five. Larsen would be ideal but if it ends up being a fully committed MJJ (not in the GP's now) I'd not be disappointed as he is a class act at the end of the day. The big question of course is how committed he would be. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arnieg 3,661 Posted January 8, 2016 I think Larsen should be considered a number 1, he's a much better rider than he was when he was last riding here. King's Lynn will have a decent side if they sign him. Polish Extraliga averages in 2015 show that he had a better average than: Chris Holder Matej Zagar Peter Kildemand Neils-Kristian Iversen Jason Doyle I think that conclusively confirms your view.

Woz01 3,589 Posted January 8, 2016 (edited) Where has he ridden as a number one?Maybe Sweden? In Britain he'd be classed as one if he had rode here recently. Polish Extraliga averages in 2015 show that he had a better average than: Chris Holder Matej Zagar Peter Kildemand Neils-Kristian Iversen Jason Doyle I think that conclusively confirms your view. I just scan results from abroad and always seems to score well in Poland and Sweden. No surprise he is doing well but those names show how well he actually did last season. Just checked he was number one at the end of the season. Edited January 8, 2016 by woz01 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BWitcher 12,453 Posted January 8, 2016 Where has he ridden as a number one? Larsen would be a number one calibre rider. He's certainly better than any rider Wolves have got and one I had hoped we would make a move for this season. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebrum 6,827 Posted January 8, 2016 Larsen would be a number one calibre rider. He's certainly better than any rider Wolves have got and one I had hoped we would make a move for this season. It's debatable if he is 'better' and would be very interested to see if he excels in the EL format (like Janowski or Doyle) or struggles like the rest of the best. Hopefully he will be back in the EL and would be a welcome returnee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully he will be back in the EL and would be a welcome returnee. There's no debate. Larsen was 10th in Swedish averages, racing as a heat leader. Kylmakorpi 21st and Lindgren 25th. Pretty sure both Kylmo and Lindgren had time at reserve as well which of course helps to boost your average. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
