Danny Connor 351 Posted August 21, 2017 Not a bad effort from a lynn point of view, our set up means it's always likely somebody will have an off night. We are definitely improving though. Point would have been handy. What's with doyle sitting out of heat 15s and looking back at riders slowing down? Bit weird. Wasn't 1 for a neutral but I'm sure the Swindon fans were happy. Gutted this end though but good effort Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hyabb17 1,077 Posted August 21, 2017 Rosco offered him the chance to miss tonight so must have had someone lined up. Reckon he'll miss Thursday Agreed, but probably didn't have much choice, as getting in a guest as late notice might have been difficult.... and yes, on tonights showing wouldn't of done much worse.

greytiger 54 Posted August 21, 2017 Lucky 13 for the Robin's but so proud of The Star's.Unlucky not to get a point from this meeting. " Up your's " to all those who keep trying to pull the Star's down. They are a good bunch of guy's who are riding their heart's out for their team and supporter's. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crazy robin 2,963 Posted August 21, 2017 Yeah, we could have had two non scoring reserves then. Really as if Brad rode because we couldn't get a decent guest then that isn't right either?. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lynn has slipped down from a top 4 challenger, to a team that is falling a tad short....But with riders that want to and are willing to give it their best for the club.Not a win at all cost club..

Crazy robin 2,963 Posted August 21, 2017 I'd rather have our own rider having a go than another sodding guest. He needs to make sure he doesn't make it worse though surely as we're already suffering from Zach's injury?. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stoke Potter 242 Posted August 21, 2017 Another crap track, 10 heats before there was a pass. Only 5 passes all night and that's being generous. 11 Heats without a pass and they wonder why nobody goes! Supposedly a big turn out tonight, there won't be many going back after that poor meeting. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cityrebel 2,960 Posted August 21, 2017 A decent effort from Lynn tonight. Looked a good crowd on the telly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Give Lambert 2 second places in his last 2 rides. That gives King's Lynn a 1-5 in heat 11 and 3-3 in heat 13. So it's 42-41 going into heat 15. Not an 8 point swing. A 6 point swing. Swindon then put Doyle out in 15 instead of Morris. 5-1 to Swindon. 47-42. Edited August 21, 2017 by grachan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel Smith 5,666 Posted August 21, 2017 Very proud of our team tonight, very very unlucky not to collect a point imo but still, much happier with this team than the previous 100% ⭐⭐UP THE STARS⭐⭐ 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grachan 7,362 Posted August 21, 2017 He needs to make sure he doesn't make it worse though surely as we're already suffering from Zach's injury?. Agree we are missing Zach a lot. If anything costs us, it's that. I just can't be having all these guests all the time. Hate it. It's saying necessity at no 7, but having 2 guests at reserve? Not for me, if it can be avoided.

kelvinht 354 Posted August 21, 2017 What is it with BT Sport's love affair with Doyle? Nearly every interview seemed to be with him. Good and bad luck from both teams, but stars were very unlucky not to come away with a point. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grachan 7,362 Posted August 21, 2017 (edited) Very proud of our team tonight, very very unlucky not to collect a point imo but still, much happier with this team than the previous 100% ⭐⭐UP THE STARS⭐⭐ That's the flaw with the scoring system. If the home team lost a point for winning by 6 or less at home, Swindon would have had Doyle in heat 15. As it was, what do Swindon care if King's Lynn gain a point? What is it with BT Sport's love affair with Doyle? Nearly every interview seemed to be with him. Good and bad luck from both teams, but stars were very unlucky not to come away with a point. Because he is one of only 2 World class riders in the league. Edited August 21, 2017 by grachan 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
