  1. No Lambert but from what I’ve heard I don’t think he’ll be too disappointed, plenty of time for him going forward to make his mark on the GP’s. Another good year next year and hopefully he will either qualify or get a wild card pick, meanwhile he has one last tilt at the World U21 and a first season in the Extraliga to concentrate on and gain experience from.
  2. Even if he rides which looks highly doubtful he won’t be anywhere near his best after a crash like that. This is the problem with Play Offs......yes it’s exciting and yes it gets big crowds and the tv companies love it but you ride a full league season and it often comes down to which team is lucky or unlucky with injuries in October and what sort of replacement can be cobbled together. Could be a cricket score tomorrow if we have to go with R/R.
  3. That could happen or we could gate really well and keep it really close. We certainly need to make good starts.
  4. We are very good away from home, our record and the league table shows that clearly. The problem is we aren’t very good at Poole.
  5. I think it’s a bit of a kick in the teeth for those who have gone every week all season but at the same time it’s a final and in any other sport you’d expect tickets to cost a bit more. So mixed feelings really. Maybe some kind of loyalty scheme could be developed to reward those who go to a certain number of meetings which would entitle them to cheaper tickets for finals (ie normal price rather than play off / cup final price).
  6. I think the whole point is that he’s consistently inconsistent. He could score 21 or 1.
  7. If heritage is your thing then King’s Lynn is full of it and we’ll worth half a day of your time. If not then the North Norfolk coast and plenty of other interesting places are an other 20-30 minutes in the car beyond Lynn. Unfortunately the roads get slower the closer to Norfolk you get
  8. This. Teams getting thrashed at home doesn’t do anybody any good.
  9. Lots of parking if you get there early, there is an overflow car park in a field opposite the stadium which is a nightmare to get out of and I’d expect that to be used on Wednesday so try and avoid having to go in there! Parking is free.
  10. He never said that he was? It makes no difference anyway, riders will usually end up riding where they want to.
  11. I would suggest that Lynn need to score 40 in Dorset to stay in the tie - I don’t see Poole getting a hiding at Saddlebow Road this time.
  12. This. Most people are way beyond caring already. It’s boring. Roll on Monday.
  13. Maximum impact timing with the press release I’d imagine.
  14. Somerset’s situation on Monday shows that you really don’t want to be going into a Play Off match a man short.
  15. Super League Rugby have a league winners shield which is awarded before the Play Offs begin, it’s a little bit of recognition without going over the top for the team who finished 1st. I think it would be a good idea. As for Museli, I thought a guest could only appear for one team in the Play Offs? Could be wrong.
  16. I think Poole deserve credit for getting a tune out of Harris and Klindt, neither were in form and both looked like dodgy signings. 600cc engines?
  17. Maybe brainless was a big strong, careless would be a better word. The point is Lynn aren’t lucky to have a full team (at the moment!) because a Poole rider injured himself.
  18. We’re not lucky, just a bit more careful. You are a man down because of a brainless bit of riding by Kurtz.
  19. It would appear not! In true politician style Mr Shovlar is denying the existence of his faux pas and is pursuing other winding up avenues
