Abysmal. Him and the season long struggle with the Riss situation are the two reason’s we’re not in the play offs. Nothing to do with King whatsoever. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Went to the wife's Primary school. British champ and world number 8 at MX.. Only cocked a leg over a speedway bike a little over a year ago.. Get in the queue is what i would say. Someone will get a great prospect next season imho. Edited August 22, 2023 by Bald Bloke Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But he isn't RS for anyone at the moment,,, so why wait and get in queue,, and surely he would jump at the chance to pick Doyles and Emils brains Edited August 22, 2023 by Baldyman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2ndbendbeerhut 1,781 Posted August 22, 2023 King's average is actually ..... false. Take away the times he's beaten his teammate over 3 heats (eg the no 4) and then reserve in heat 12. This would be same all year.... The only 2 riders of Wolves he beat last night was Worrall and Becker. 2 all night.!! Beat Rew Twice for 3 points and then followed home Hume for 1+1in heat 12.

That's what I like to see - confidence that their will be 2 leagues! If there are then Oxford could well go up and have him as their RS. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
