That's the thing, yes people just want racing, but after a few thrashings at home, just wanting some racing will soon become "I'm not watching that s#!+ anymore".

Why would he choose small fry over bigger clubs

Might be an ask but I'd take Ricky Wells over Proctor. Lawson may not be a good visiting rider but he's more that capable of adapting

Being unsure on Bridger’s average, are you thinking Proctor & Nicholls as the last 2?? Edit, Proctor & Lawson, it's obvious

Updated

I think there's very little between the top 3. Put Sheffield 2nd purely on the basis of 2 spots to fill. The last reserve spot will be the difference with Belle Vue having Etheridge in there & the fact Bates loves a crash or 2

1. Belle Vue 2. Sheffield 3. Wolverhampton 4. Ipswich 5. Peterborough 6. King's Lynn Obviously injuries will be a massive factor, bigger than ever before with the lack of rider's. On paper now, is thos about right??

Updated

That opinion will soon wear thin when you're getting hammered at home

To expensive, rather have his relative who'd come in on 6.66

Jorgensen, Proctor & S. Lambert my guess

Updated

People seem scared to say why Bradford wouldn't work as a Speedway venue. I have no idea why, it's not a racist opinion, it's fact. Majority white area's struggle to get 1000 week in week out. Bradford would struggle to get 100

Absolutely

These confirmed averages or just taken from the last 2019 greensheet??

'izzan' in between the the G & A by any chance??

We'll see when the teams are complete but I have a feeling Peterborough will have a better look to it

Peterborough's rider's are on the decline but I believe who we have don't have any more improvement in them. Yes they're old but they do have "names" in their team. I'd 100% rather see a top 3 of Bjarne Pedersen, Chris Harris & Hans Andersen /Scott Nicholls & also they have the strength of Palm-Toft too. Apart from Cook I honestly can't see Peterborough fans wanting a swap for anyone else, can you??

If King's Lynn was Buster's only club with this line-up I think we'd look at it & just say it's an after Covid budget team, get fans back & just enjoy some racing in 2021. The issue for me though is his other club. You look at the rider's their (although Dad's Army), the financial side of thing's really confuse me. The overheads of renting etc & being able to include Pedersen & Harris compared to ours I struggle to understand wtf is going on. Is Buster having any say at King's Lynn or is Dale just picking rider's he knows? The difference in overall quality of rider between both clubs is night & day. My worst thought crossing my mind right now is, is there a winding down process of the King's Lynn Stars?

Don't think so, that was only 2500 tops. That would still make the AFA 8000. I just can't believe that. The only other way I see those sort of capacity numbers is when Jonathan Chapman got venue approval as an outdoor music venue?!?

I was absolute shocked by this but Dale Allitt a couple of weeks ago said King's Lynn's capacity was 10,465. This is not a typo, 10,465

For me, when Jonathan Chapman left. Although he came across as arrogant to many he ALWAYS made you feel like he listened. He always tried to put on various entertainment during the summer months. It was massively noticeable when he went & it's gradually slipped further & further down hill since. Rob Lyon did try when he became promoter but he wasn't around long enough to really make an impact on the terraces.

I stopped I think 2018, the year of the double headers & the season ticket holders were compensated with a cup of tea. The owners gave zero s#!+s about many complaints. After it being a religion, going for over 30 years I haven't missed going at all. King's Lynn will always be in my heart (hence being onhere still), but would never contemplate ever going back unless changes to attitude & racing happen. British Speedway as a whole is in serious need to give the fans what they want, quality racing constantly & supply entertainment. Unfortunately the only place delivering on the racing is Belle Vue but even there, people just ain't returning. British Speedway is at the point now of no return & the pandemic has emphasised it even more. Recently the promotion had a q&a, nobody was interested, only the usual fan names asked questions. The clubs social media is dead, the interaction numbers are horrendous. I do jave a feeling thing's may look bleak for the club. When read comments from the other club down the road that our owner rents, it just feels more effort has been put in their but they're still not getting right with the fans.

For rider's it's all about how thing's fall in place. Jason Doyle's career really took off at 31. Had Hancock's mrs not been ill he'd still be going now at 50. Speedway has proven age isn't a factor, the biggest factor for stalling or stopping a career in this game is consistent injuries.
