Maybe he knows he’s on his way out so decided not to bother? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bald Bloke 3,287 Posted August 3, 2022 He scored 3,3,3,3,2 before HT 15 and i can't see that he fell in the meeting. Very unlucky to aggravate it, makes us a bit weaker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tellboy 3,662 Posted August 3, 2022 (edited) Why the hell didn't they get Nicholls in ffs.Nicholls is so much better than Andersen and he is going quite well at the moment.King's Lynn banging on about a really important part in our season and the need to win matches.Should have busted a gut for Nicholls but i guess they say he would have been unavailable.Pretty sure they could have done better than Andersen,no dis-respect to Andersen.Lynn are not acting as if they really want to win these matches in the important part of the season which is what they are saying. Lots of pressure on the top five to perform.I would be happy if our reserves could muster 5 points between them,then 41 between the top 5 which is a tall order though. Edit:Just seen Nicholls scored paid 11 tonight at Poole and Summers scored 9.If Lynn were serious about wanting to win you would go for the best riders wouldn't you?Not a past rider who never really got to grips with the NA circuit.

Roger Jacobs 554 Posted August 3, 2022 It's very confusing how Rowe can ride as a replacement for Barker (the line-up show him with Barker's average, so he's a guest?). He has remained in the Witches declared line-up all season as the #7 Rising Star. Have the BSPA/L now decided that #7 and #8 are interchangeable, and they can replace another rider in a team, irrespective of their average? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's an odd one. With all due respect to Kasper he is either the cheap option or a last resort. Perhaps the club have given up on 4th despite what they say in press releases? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
