I had a spare 15 min's, so quickly put a team together that would make the best use of the averages, if they remain the same. I would of used the same riders if the Panthers were running.. I apologise for my team post, if people think it inappropriate.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Speedtiger 327 Posted September 20, 2023 So long as the village idiot Chapman is not involved, even though the track and stadium is a complete shi*thole, I really do hope KL run in 2024. Chapman is a time served dim wit the sport can well do without. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The sport probably wouldn't still be around if it wasn't for Chapman. Saved Lynn, saved Peterborough (although some question this) and helped support Ipswich.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blah blah, he didn’t do it to save the clubs or the sport, he did it because he thought he could control the sport and make lots of money. He thought he had all the answers but was actually clueless. As for his time at the BSPA that was a disaster that cost the BSPA and fellow promoters hundreds of thousands of pounds. Chapman is certainly no saviour, he’s greedy and self serving.

Seem to remember he saved Mildenhall for a short period of time then sold it or closed it can’t remember but took the club assets with him - didn’t he almost buy Leicester as well ?

StarBoy 165 Posted October 8, 2023 Looks like Lambert has left Smederna, does that mean he's doing UK or signing for another Swedish team? I saw something in the news that discussions were held that if Lambert left Smederna he would do a full season in the UK and not sign for another Swedish club...

Hope not, Kings Lynn doesn't need him in a team. Yes I used to like him, but since the Poole, Holder/Batchelorgate meeting, and his antics including storming into the crowd after somebody, I think he lost quite abit of respect from the Lynn Faithfull, plus he hasn't needed UK speedway for a few years, so do we really need him.
