  1. It can't be Simon Lambert as he'd have to come in on his starting average until we've completed the 4 home 4 away as a team
  2. Whilst I understand where you're both coming from the problem is, it looks like we'll need to replace 2 to get a half decent No7. We not really going to get much improvement in the team by just replacing Bailey. For me, Porsing makes far more sense to let go for the greater good.
  3. Huckenbeck, Holder and Bailey have 1 away meeting but the others, the averages below will be their new averages. Lambert 7.89 Batchelor 7.89 Holder 6.53 Huckenbeck 5.94 Rose 5.50 Porsing 4.75 Bailey 2.00 Total 40.50 With the revised 42 limit we can only replace Bailey with a 3.50 rider. With the improvement in Huckenbeck and Holder's form that 3.50 will be even less. As a team manager, I'd be ruthless now and replace Porsing and Bailey. Giving us 10.30 for 2 replacements now for me is a better option than waiting for Porsing to drop 2 points off his average, this would leave us with 8.25 to replace both.
  4. Have to say, that was​ one of the best meetings for years at the AFA. Absolutely brilliant racing and the track producing racing lines of yesteryears. The fact the track is being left ungraded is creating it's own lines throughout the evening. This punter went home the happiest for a long long time
  5. Taken from the Shawn Mendes "There's Nothing Holdin' Me Back" [Verse 1] I wanna follow where they go I think about them and they know it I want the Stars to take control 'Cause everytime that they get close, yeah [Pre-Chorus] They pull us in even if we have a guest in And I will shout when we finally go racin' Go racin', yeah [Chorus] Oh, I've been shaking I love it when we go crazy They take all my inhibitions Fact, King's Lynn Stars are on the attack They take us places and tear up others reputations Never suffer exclusions Fact, King's Lynn Stars are on the attack King's Lynn Stars are on the attack King's Lynn Stars are on the attack [Verse 2] The King's Lynn Stars are never afraid That's why the opposition's shakin' We're mostly first out the gate If not we'll do the chasin' [Pre-Chorus] They pull us in even if we have a guest in And I will shout when we finally go racin' Go racin', yeah [Chorus] Oh, I've been shaking I love it when we go crazy They take all my inhibitions Fact, King's Lynn Stars are on the attack They take us places and tear up others reputations Never suffer exclusions Fact, King's Lynn Stars are on the attack King's Lynn Stars are on the attack King's Lynn Stars are on the attack [bridge] 'Cause when we win our meetings and we took it to the bar I know we'd be alright, I know we would be alright With you there by my side as I stumble to a car I know we'd be alright, I know we would be alright 'Cause when we win our meetings and we took it to the bar I know we'd be alright, I know we would be alright With you there by my side as I stumble to a car I know we'd be alright, I know we would be alright [Chorus] Oh, I've been shaking I love it when we go crazy They take all my inhibitions Fact, King's Lynn Stars are on the attack They take us places and tear up others reputations Never suffer exclusions Fact, King's Lynn Stars are on the attack King's Lynn Stars are on the attack I feel so free when we are winnin', I say King's Lynn Stars are on the attack
  6. If that's as inventive as it gets maybe we really shouldn't bother
  7. That's what I mean by opposite. We're all different & have different ways of dealing with things. I certainly will have no qualms about celebrating a great race or meeting tomorrow night, if anything, what happened last night in Manchester gives me more determination to properly enjoy some sunshine Speedway
  8. I'm totally the opposite, these sh!+y terrorists want to spoil lives and make us live in fear. Not me, fu© em' and continue to enjoy life, you never know what's round the corner
  9. No points lost by Peter Adams, Freddie Lindgren and Wolves at all. A home win is 3 points regardless, Swindon's point will have no effect on Wolves
  10. With the weather looking to be a cracker for this week the football is going on record. King's Lynn Stars Sunshine Speedway is calling me Reminder of the PL days: King's Lynn 75 Rye House 15
  11. Season tickets should include half price admission to away matches As for chanting, have wanted to to this at King's Lynn but only a handful seem interested in bothering. Maybe we should go down the route of rentacrowd to get people involved.
  12. Should imagine with the 'imminent :unsure:' new track coming the promotion ain't willing to spend to much money on the current track Great result from the Stars, with a bit more from Porsing the team is where most of use expected at the start of the season. If this form continues, it really doesn't matter who's at No7 as the No6 should always be strong enough to cope.
  13. I'm not so sure. I think this meeting is all down to which Eddie Kennett turns up. Harris and Nicholls can beat anyone around the AFA and both Rye reserves have the beating of Bailey.
  14. Same, but I am feeling pretty negative about how we're playing at the moment. The good thing is, it shouldn't be a draw as we're away from OT YA-NI-TED!!!!!
  15. Those Panthers folk don't know what fun and banter is. They always get upset about nothing, it's that Gypo instinct
  16. The GTR is showing how unviable the PJR GM is so far this season with the main 3 in Woffy, Holder & Hancock failing quite miserably in the 2 GP's. They'll now be sending their motors back to be had a look at (more expense) while Fast Freddie has his sitting in the shed until the next one
  17. Could do Kerr for Porsing and Graversen for Bailey
  18. Definitely a meeting of 2 halves. If we're perfectly honest, in terms of racing neither half was that great. What made the 2nd half exciting was the unexpected turn around, totally different team. 1st half was same old story of 2017. 2nd half was a glimpse of the team I expected to see at the start of the season. Long may that 2nd half performance continues​.
  19. Ah right, that's ok then The fact that the way you feel you've been treated is the same as 30 years ago says exactly where Speedway is. No, why? Never said I was, just that I'd ask how honest we can be on the mic. Due to illness I struggle to put a sentence together so my point wouldn't​ be heard or make sense anyway
  20. This is true, but as a customer (no longer a fan) the product has to be top notch or the customer goes elsewhere. This customer is choosing to stick it's fingers up to Speedway as a whole at the end of the season
  21. I think tonight could be a defining night for some Stars fans if it's another 15 heats of FTG's
  22. There we are King's Lynn fans, everything you need to know about how the club is run. A family / company that's pumped £50,000+ into the club for the last 10 years given the cold shoulder. It proves the point categorically that the clubs opinion of us fans that pass over £17 a meeting must mean even less to them. We are no longer fans just customers, if we don't return it's no big lose to them. I'm seeing out my season ticket for 2017 then that's it. I feel totally unrecognised as a fan, loyal supporter of this club and treated just as a number. Well, as a customer the product is sh!te and I will spend my money in future somewhere where it's more appreciated
  23. It's very different to SEC as it will be GB with BSPA approval. Guests granted for club teams. SEC doesn't have BSPA approval
