This. There is a difference between craic and complete drivel.

I agree that PR at the club last season was dreadful but in this instance I think it's just a case of some people being impatient, no doubt they are seeing other clubs announce signings and feel Lynn should be doing the same. However it's only mid November, I'd rather they tell us when they have something to say rather than reporting when Matt Ford breaks wind like Poole seem to. They have told us they are having a fans forum and until they have a date which, as somebody has said probably depends on signings, there really isn't anything to add.

Rye House I reckon. Always likely that he was going to move on this year for various reasons.
-
Haha brilliant
-
It would be really nice if you stopped strutting around the forum telling people what will and won't happen.
-
Riding regularly on big Polish circuits will do him far more good longer term than some of the smaller tracks in our Championship, even if the standard is lower. And as others have said it puts him in the shop window. Hopefully he still get regular rides in Sweden too.
-
Easy to forget that Jacobs had a year out before returning last season. He's never going to be a huge scorer on other tracks but could well improve now he had been to them all again and bearing in mind some of the lower order riders who are likely to be around next season.
-
Great signing for that circuit.
-
Indeed he did, that was 2011 I believe and he signed for us for 2012 which was his last year of being U21. Think he came second to MJJ that season and he was wildly inconsistent for us, and many of his poor meetings were in the lead up to U21 rounds where he was obviously keeping safe for those meetings, which I am sure world have been demanded by the Polish authorities. He went to Poole for 2013 where I believe his lack of U21 commitments contributed to his improvement.
-
Until he joined Poole Magic was trying to win the World U21 title which always seemed his overriding priority. I think having that monkey off his back plaited a big part in his improvement after that.

If we are including seasons in isolation then I would argue that in 2011 Bjerre was one of the club's best number ones.....achieved a 9+ average and finish fourth in the overall CMA list and beat everyone above and around him in heat 15's at Lynn along the way. Got completely eclipsed by Holder and Ward in the Play Offs unfortunately but was a fantastic number one for the club in its first season back in the top flight.
-
Didn't mention Lee or Trick as Blupanther had already done so.
-
Terry Betts, Dave Jessup, Henka Gustafsson, Jason Crump, Nicki Pedersen?
-
Ah that old chestnut. Sign any rider with enough talent and they will learn any home track regardless of previous fortunes there. It's not as if he's the only quality rider to struggle to score points at your track.
-
With around four months til the season starts what's the rush?
-
I think it would be better all round if we deleted you.
-
I think Harris would be a fantastic addition to the second tier and would put bums on seats if he can get a ride somewhere.
-
Terribly weak reserves. Could possibly see Bailey at seven with a much stronger six but those two together would be cannon fodder.
-
Ryan Kinsley not yet ready for Championship speedway IMO.
-
All those points Ellis scored in Poole's top five last season are obviously a figment of our collective imaginations.
-
Think it's the muck used rather than the man in the tractor semmers. A little less clay would go a long way to better racing. Would love to see the inside line taken in too to make the track shorter and wider, perhaps one day.
-
I can't imagine you'll have the choice of having Worrall back.
-
The priority for me should be seven riders who are going to be there every week and give 100%.
-
Great news about Hampshire, and if it annoys Mildenhall then even better Whitmore, Bailey and Kinsley must be shoe ins. Would like to see one experienced head to guide the young uns and I suppose Campos would be ideal as he has ridden Lynn for several years now and then a couple of young fresh faces to complete the side. Should be loads of improvement in there, could be the year that Josh becomes one of the league's top men.

Most people have heard what Zagar is on and the other big names can't be far behind. While the running of the sport leaves an awful lot to be desired the simple fact is that more is being paid out than is coming in. Get more people through the door or big sponsorship on board then perhaps in future the top riders will come back once race nights are streamlined.
