A bit of a curve ball here but what about the old guard on 28 day deals in Paul Hurry / Jon Armstrong?

To be fair, he scored 3+2 for Berwick yesterday at Peterborough and I thought deserved a bit more but was caught on the wrong racing line. Gated pretty well too and that's half the battle an was only his 2nd meeting of 2017. I'm actually intrigued enough to attend Wednesday. Yes, that's right. Jake Knight is the reason I'm attending Wednesday night, seriously no joke

Tell me about it but I can't see where we can go forward. Porsing will be reserve by the end of the month and I can't​ see him performing as well as Huckenbeck down there. We desperately need a stronger reserve at No7. Maybe Graversen on a 4.00 at No7 but Porsing has to be replaced IMO. Currently form is a 4.69, if we allow that drop rather than find a 6 point man now we're in the brown stuff.

Newman is between a rock and a hard place. He'll want another team and do well but, if he goes out and up his average Poole won't be interested as he then becomes less valuable to the team.

I'm sure in private Trees has similar thoughts​to all of us but now the Supporters Club is firmly attached and in bed with the club. I'm sure those running it have to tow the party line on all social media. I honestly don't believe everything Trees says is always her actual opinion on matters but feels she has to be on the defensive.

Went to Peterborough v Berwick yesterday. Even though it was a dust bowl it's was the most I've enjoyed a league Speedway meeting in years. My little 2yo girl loved it too, more than any meeting she's attended at King's Lynn. I will never be a Panthers fan but I felt more VFM came from it so I've got some thinking to do for 2018. That old feeling from our PL days came rolling back, rider's interaction with the supporters was there. A couple of mascots my daughter could run up to and high 5 and cuddle. It just felt like the fans that were in attendance meant something.

Should be a sign at the entrance "No Farting Please".

Yeah, course they are

Starke is only 2nd to Holder in race wins with 16 and he's only had 4 last places all season. He certainly isn't it any of the rider's that need replacing. Shouldn't worry anyway as Starke will have to prioritise the Panthers in any fixture clash except rescheduled fixtures.

Hit the nail on it's unmissable fat fookin head. If it was me I'd bin Porsing immediately with Simon giving us 10.30 ave Todd Kurtz 5.54 Max Clegg 4.70 It's risky but we'll get nowhere without trying

Just 1, Glasgow Tigers

I don't know, a kamikaze​ no7 that can gate might work in wiping out every opposition's No6 in heat 2

Lewis Bridger's Twitter is funny, questioning why he and Lawson weren't contacted / selected for GB I hope he's just having a giggle, if not that is a WTF moment

Because that is just going from bad to worse obviously. We may be able to fit Newman in for Simon Lambert though with the new averages.

Unfortunately Tungate doesn't fit either way we try, with his old or new average to replace Porsing

That is funny

You are correct regards to Doyle. Doesn't matter what the meeting is he go all guns blazing. He was fortunate to get up from his off at King's Lynn the other week over doing it on the 3rd 4th bend

Depends, apparently the BSPA are dishing out averages this week, even if rider's haven't done 4h 4a. Hopefully Simon gets a 5+ average

We did and the promotion then wasn't shy to make changes. Since going EL we've gone soft

This change is much of a muchness but I wish my club would be as ruthless as Matt Ford. It's why we at King's Lynn always fall short and Poole win, no resting on ones laurels.

I'm a big Woffinden fan but I'm enjoying his struggles too I'm interested how he's going to turn his GP Series around if at all he can, how he would cope if he finished outside the top 8.

Where? Starke increases you teams total average. The only choice I can see is replacing Zengota but with who?

Have to admit I'm not sure how the U21 rule works. Almost certainly the first 8 races will be done by the starting 1-4. Can the U21 still take 5 rides between heats 9-20? If so then Lambert at reserve is the only option. Plus Harris/Cook can take a TS if needed so we could be really strong in the 2nd half of the meeting. I do far though that we could be troubled by the Czech team. Australia should cruise it to the final.

If you think a 6.7 average is cleaning up at reserve? Only adding just over a point to his starting average. I'd say that's a fail so far and Klindt should be scoring far better.

His average is to high anyway We really only have 2 (not very good) options if Simon is out for some time Liam Carr Jake Knight There really is nothing else about
