I've just spent hour of my life reading the regs and it's clear as mud. Poole shouldn't of had a facility (R/R) for Holder. Something sinks here

Stars look to extend Iversen's stay http://www.edp24.co.uk/sport/king_s_lynn_stars_in_talks_to_extend_stay_of_niels_kristian_iversen_1_4507043?utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=twitterfeed

Agreed, another absolute annoyance is the double points for the home side.

I've just been to the toilet, think I have constipation. Can anyone help?

Just read the Stars press release & I'm at a loss as I can't see how we're allowed to run R/R for Schlein I can't see a clash of fixtures for Jakobsen (unless he's racing in Europe somewhere?) so surely he should be in and Huckenbeck for Schlein as our No'8. Surely if a team can run a full 7 they should be made too?

Although the format is shockingly awful I do think the FTR's will learn a lot more about what they need to push on from scoring 0's. Constantly banging in double figure scores from reserve will get them nowhere except false hope.

I wasn't that keen on the Golden Double. I much prefer the standard Tactical Substitute from the tapes i.e. Polish rules. No double bubble at all but I suppose it's not cost affective in the current EL. Isn't it in Poland if you're more than 6 behind you can make the tactical 3 times but not with the same rider?

You should elaborate as your edit makes no sense?

The 3rd episode of the podcast is now live http://www.edp24.co.uk/sport/home-straight-speedway-podcast

Just got a message saying "Meeting Organiser Has Cancelled Stream"

It once was but massively now isn't the best racing track, you won't see riders swapping places to often. Stay at home & watch it on the box I say

won't let me view saying I need flash player when I already have it

I'm one of the 5%. The results don't overly matter, winning is just a plus. I've actually become bored with the FTG's, slick track, lack of passing, abysmal atmosphere etc etc. 1 good race a meeting is getting difficult to justify £17

Edited thanks

Agree, I'll be watching from home & that will be the 3rd meeting in a row I've not attended. Not missing it at all

I am a woffy fan and agree with why he won't ride over here. I was being sarcastic with the line-up Not a stalker though, it's not my fault he doesn't have a blind in his bathroom window is it

Seeing as the Leicester thread is a little boring (understandably low interest imo) maybe this may stir a few more up. Should be fairly decent box viewing Guestermate looking line-up's King's Lynn 1. Niels K Iversen 2. Mads Korneliussen 3. Robert Lambert 4. Nicolaj Busk Jakobsen 5. Scott Nicholls 6. Carl Wilkinson 7. Lewis Rose Poole 1. Hans Andersen 2. Krzysztof Buczkowski 3. Chris Holder 4. Brady Kurtz 5. Bjarne Pedersen 6. Adam Ellis 7. Josh Bates (G)

He'd have a cracking line-up though with all his mates Tai Woffinden Chris Holder Jason Doyle Troy Batchelor Rory Schlein Dave Watt Todd Kurtz Brady Kurtz Max Fricke Aaron Summers Sam Masters Nick Morris Josh Grajczonek Justin Sedgmen Rohan Tungate Jack Holder

4 weeks ago?!? 4 WEEKS AGO?!?!? how sh!+ is your track curator for goodness sake. That is inexcusable

You've misunderstood what Mr Watson had said. If a none EDR is at reserve it's ANY guest up to that rider's average. If an EDR is in the 1-5 only an EDR can replace him as guest. You'll only ever have 2 EDR's in 1 team

I know people say there should be a wall around Norfolk but won't need a visa to watch Norwich City, may need some jabs though

No, no different from the Australian's we get over here to race. Not much will change except slower clearance through customs

From http://www.kingslynnstars.co KING’S LYNN will look for their second successive victory as they welcome Leicester to the Adrian Flux Arena on Thursday (7.30). The Roger Warnes Transport Stars battled to a hard-fought 46-44 win over Coventry last week and will now look to claim three more Elite League points against the Lions. Leicester arrive in Norfolk having endured a tough start to the season, but they will no doubt be buoyed by their first win of 2016 against Swindon last time out. The Stars have drafted in flying Wolves racer Sam Masters as a guest for his injured Australian compatriot Rory Schlein. They will otherwise be at full strength – and experienced ace Mads Korneliussen is keen to see them build on their “solid start to the season” to come away with another win. Korneliussen said: “Apart from that defeat against Belle Vue where nothing went our way it’s been a solid start to the season for us. “It was a good win against Coventry last week. Losing Rory (Schlein) was obviously a big shame, but we are looking to get another win against Leicester. “We’ve got high hopes for this team, so hopefully we will keep on developing as the season goes on and make it to the play-offs.” Leicester have also turned to Wolverhampton for a guest with Swedish star Freddie Lindgren stepping in at No.5 in place of Sebastian Ulamek. They also operate rider replacement to cover the absence of Szymon Wozniak, with Paul Starke moving into the main body of the team and skipper Nicolai Klindt dropping to reserve. KING’S LYNN: Niels-Kristian Iversen, Mads Korneliussen, Robert Lambert, Kai Huckenbeck, Sam Masters, Carl Wilkinson, Lewis Rose. LEICESTER: Patrick Hougaard, Paul Starke, Aaron Summers, Szymon Wozniak R/R, Freddie Lindgren, Nicolai Klindt, Josh Auty.

Don't think that's just your opinion, that would be the opinion of every Speedway fan the World over. When it's good there really is nothing that comes close to being as exciting. There's just far to many bad days right now. You go to a meeting see 1 exceptional race and shout "That was worth the admission alone". But really, should that be enough to justify the sport. Not for me. I'm now going to miss 2 (King's Lynn) home fixtures on the trot, Coventry last week & this Thursday's Leicester visit through illness. Never missed 2 on the trot before and I actually haven't missed Speedway at all. Never in the life of me have I ever felt that before. Normally I'd be itching to get back.

It's why King's Lynn don't reduce their admission for Sky matches as the numbers don't add up If we get 800 for TV matches @£17 they'd need to find another 560 spectators on top just to break even. Not likely
