  1. Yep, you'd have thought they would have tried for Fricke..
  2. Paid to watch the stream tonight - what a waste... How can a team who, on paper look pretty decent, be consistently failing to deliver on the track. With the way Cooper has improved this year we really should have been in the mix nearer the top end of the league, not scrapping to sneak into 4th, which on this performance is gonna need a miracle of biblical proportions
  3. Walked passed Buster and Coleman chatting after Mondays match.. I wondered what they were talking about.... !
  4. This is a must win for us otherwise it's game over for playoffs. Even if we win, we will still need at least one away win at Northampton or Leicester, plus a home win against Leicester and a couple of bonus points along the way.... and the right results elsewhere....
  5. What is stopping the Sheffield track being widened by a few feet onto the infield? Would potentially make it a much better spectacle with more racing lines and safer. Every meeting I've seen, after first few races the only place to be is millimeters from the fence?
  6. Should have postponed Ben fund collection with rain on way, might have made 15 heats. Not that I'm complaining as it ensured stars won bonus point
  7. That's a shame, he's been doing a decent job for us, but needs to put his own health first Now the negative... what really annoys me is Jordan announced this 24 hours ago and there is absolutely nothing on the Stars website or any mention in their social media. I know we don't have a meeting til Monday, but a few words wouldn't hurt and to hear what their plans might be for Monday (assuming Mulford unless they are still harbouring realistic play off hopes)....
  8. Hope not, coming over for this one for our first visit to the raceway.....will take a nice 2 point stars win
  9. Great win, and Ippo lost, perfect night!
  10. Possibly our best opportunity for a stars first ever win at Sheffield... But in good old kings lynn fashion we'll probably mess it up
  11. I would imagine England's world cup match at stupid o'clock Monday would have meant some very tired people come Monday night affecting Stars attendance. Vintage stuff from Niels and good to see Nicolai score well, both badly missed in Stars colours this season. 5 heat winners in a fairly processional drawn out meeting was never going to be enough. That felt like a point won, not a point dropped in the end
  12. Heat 15 Lee and Betts against PC and Mort .. now that would be decent race around the NSS
  13. Be surprised if jody Scott fit for Thursday so expecting an outing for Jake Mulford. We'll need Fricke and Kvech firing plus the rest chipping in to get this close. You never know, we might get lucky like we did last season....
  14. Steady on there..... 😉
  15. Absolutely... and the amount of water they chuck on the track every 4 heats in some if the gp's. would constitute a rain off in a league match
  16. This call off does more plausible than the previous one. Problem is, we've had our fingers burnt too many times with wet tracks and Buster attempting to get raceable when we've been in the stadium...the riders, understandably (with today's bikes) just aren't interested.... similar to recent foxhall call off....
  17. Being a stars fan, I'm getting used to early dodgy call offs..... Ipswich have announced teams and have Simon Lambert in place of bangs, so nothing to worry about there..... Can only assume in coming team change soon ?
  18. If Belle Vue gate on a 5-1 that mysterious red light will come on again....
  19. With the low 37 point limit at start of season, most riders and teams will increase almost straight away. Does a different limit apply mid season, otherwise even a poorly performing team will be stuck with like for like changes..?
  20. And those sulking Holders both gave up as they entered bend 3 for the last time🤣 Would have been even more funny if one of the stars boys had an engine failure as they wouldn't have been close enough to capitalise
  21. Good to get the season underway today. Just a shame there is now a break before the season starts for real. Ought to put on a challenge match in the meantime... maybe get a Swedish or Polish team over... something a little different that will appeal to the fans
  22. I do wish they'd consider a season ticket that doesn't quite cover all the matches....I'd more than happily buy one this season if it was for 10 of 12 regular cup and league meetings perhaps for the price of 9 - I can rarely get to all the meetings in a season but if it allowed me to miss a couple I'd buy one!
  23. If only this was about speedway.... https://www.norfolk.gov.uk/article/76381/Government-funding-commitment-secured-for-21m-Kings-Lynn-STARS-project?utm_campaign=4274725_News update from Norfolk County Council&utm_medium=email&utm_source=GOSS Interactive Limited on behalf of Norfolk County Council&dm_i=7MO4,2JMED,1HX59G,5JPK8,1,0,0,0
  24. Sam Ermolenko makes Richie Hawkins look like a good TM ..
  25. Interesting! Could that have happened when they built the kings lynn bypass in the first half of the seventies....?
