The whole problem is Iversen doesnt want to ride here for a season so i expect they are hoping someone will be willing to ride when he stops, at least it gives them time to continue their search. Iversen may feel he let them down a bit so thats why he's helping out short term and and he could still come back late season if things don't work out elsewhere. A few teams dont have a proper number one so its not a disaster making do mid season but i dont think Huckenbeck will last long so could be a season of regular changes

He didn't last long either and as the 2nd reserve he knew his position wasn't that important especially when you have Kyle Newman as the other reserve. Misguided optimism.

Easy name to forget when he's at the back! mind you if he turns out as good as the only other Kai speedway rider it will be seen as very good business but can't see it myself.

Yes but by the end of april he will have an official average. He will be dropped if he isn't good enough and the team changed.Average manipulation isn't new, i should know!!

They would be better off getting Kenny Bjerre back, Kings Lynn look a poor team, expecting a massive away win when Poole turn up, Brady Kurtz could beat most of that team, let alone Holder,Andersen,Watt and Buckowski.

The Aussie championship is usually unreliable as a form guide for the upcoming season in the elite league

Why potentially better?

I agree North is no world beater but he is still a lot better than Tungate. Tungate is inconsistant even at PL level.

He's a decent rider but is a level below the rider he is replacing.

Not me i always said he was worth sticking with. I really liked his style and never say die attitude, welcome back anytime.

Could have Kasper Gomolski, i thought he did extremely well last season.

it would never happen, we have enough BB's in Poole already!!

Are you sure!

What do you base that on?

Only the management and Niels know exactly when he decided not to ride here next season but the way the evening with Iversen was arranged inferred to me that he was leaving although it was a surprise that it was not announced that night. I would think the management knew well before it was announced and they were just trying pick the right moment which is difficult when your losing one of the best riders in the world.

I have a feeling he may be joking!

To me and i would imagine to a lot of people the evening with Iversen was to thank him and celebrate with him what he has achieved with Kings Lynn and his GP win at Cardiff as a leaving gift. Even if it wasnt certain then it certainly was by november and thats 3 months ago!

The evening with Iversen was announced in October so they would have known he wasn't riding then, it was obvious he wasn't going to ride next season then and they still haven't found a suitable replacement.

Personally i feel Niels is getting a bit of unfair criticism as to me he is just doing what's best for him and his career. He probably feels it is getting near his last chance of GP glory and wants to give it his best shot. I have always liked him as a person and a rider and as far as i am concerned one of the nicest guys in the sport. Kings Lynn's problem is not Niels fault the management must have known his plans months ago.

Yes very true no one is jealous of your riders now!!

That is a very weak reserve pairing, Simon Lambert is ok but nowhere near most number 6 reserves.

Why would saturday be a problem as Polish meetings are on a sunday.

Getting back Swiderski is a mistake in my opinion, the really struggled last year just can't see any reason why next season should be different.

Kerr needed to do PL and EL and rightly so. Kl wednesday Ipswich thursday perfect then KL change race night why should he change his PL team and let Ipswich down. To me this is entirely the fault of KL. No need to change race night this year.

More chance of Kenny Bjerre
