Oh, sounds promising
-
A stars win at foxhole is worth seeing, even if there is nothing riding on it !
-
Is Nicki Pedersen still up for one final UK fling?
-
Surely it should be called round the air fence?

Ipswich Vs Kings Lynn Thurs March 31st LC
kelvinht replied to Arch Stanton's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Add in the risk of the track freezing later in meeting. Had an abandonment at Lynn a few years back as the moisture in the track froze as temperature dropped. Hate to think what real temperature would have been when you throw in a significant wind chill. Right call imo -
Ipswich Vs Kings Lynn Thurs March 31st LC

Heart says go and cheer on the Stars. Brain says don't be ****** stupid, strong winds, very cold and some rain in the day. Jury out, but my cosy woodburner winning at mo, but only just..! -
Ipswich Vs Kings Lynn Thurs March 31st LC

Think we'll need more than bobble hats! BBC weather currently showing 3 degrees at 8pm, 2 degrees by 10pm. Sleet and rain in the day, although looks dry by the evening. If it goes ahead we'll need 10 pairs of socks and six coats each to stay vaguely warm. Could be ice speedway at Foxhole. Hopefully stars will turn up with spikes in their tyres to help them get round.... -
Doesn't seem to be tickets available to buy online for Lewis's meeting or home fixtures in general. Bit of a backward step of you ask me, unless I'm just impatient... The ticket office on stars website still talks about 2021 tickets and nothing showing as available. Anyone would think we still lived in the dark ages and computers had never been invented in West Norfolk...

I'm still a regular KL fan. Now live near Loddon (south east Norfolk) - hour and 10mins to KL and Ippo is about the same for me. Norwich closed the year I was born, so would love a Norwich team to support, would reduce my mileage no end - as long a track is decent shape / size (like Belle Vue would be ideal!!). Don't think there are many regulars travelling from Norwich area like me these days so doubt a Norwich track would affect KL numbers to any great degree. Unfortunately don't think there are many places round Norwich you could easily set up a track, most places, like the showground, have too many houses nearby and too much NIMBY opposition. Without strong council support will never get off the ground. Stupid thing is, in the right place with the right promotion, Norwich is a decent sized city and likely to attract good crowds.

Seems a bit strange, only been with us for half a season!
-
Definitely prefer MPT than Killer. If its not MPT, then there must be better options that Killer on a 7pt average, can only see him going one way these days, and even when he was a decent rider, his riding style, although appearing exciting, meant he spent far too many times on his backside
-
Connor Mountain should be one of first names on the team sheet, hope some of above posts are wrong....
-
Unless last year's 2 year deal with Kerr means it's a done deal, but does seem odd with usual merry go round of riders it hasn't been properly announced
-
Not Proctor, would be an awful signing - was an awful signing last time as well (and said that before the season started). His average might fit, but well past his best and unlikely to improve
-
We could double that in the next 7 days.....

King's Lynn v Sheffield 09/09/21
kelvinht replied to Bald Bloke's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
You just turn up as usual. It will still be valid tonight on turnstiles My problem is I was away for original staging so bought ticket this morning that's not yet come through. At least I took a screen shot of order number, so hoping I can get in!! -
Wolverhampton v King's Lynn 9th August 2021
kelvinht replied to Beowulf's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Easy win for the Stars -
Yup so I reckon ref should have excluded both, it was soo bl00dy obvious!
-
TBF, Heaps rode ok at Foxhole last week. Unfortunately it's proven to be a flash in the pan. Maybe trying to sell himself back to his previous employer... Hoping Kasper has had a chance to develop further since his first spell with us. And you have to wonder if Wells and Heaps knew about the change before Monday, hence their poor returns (again)
-
That was my thought when it happened
-
You could have argued king caused Riss to fall when they touch at end of straight leaving Riss with not enough room to turn. If I'd have been ref i'd have excluded king. Bit 50/50 really, decision could have gone either way And hind sight says stars should have put a tactical out when we had the chance

King's Lynn v Belle Vue 22/07/21
kelvinht replied to Bald Bloke's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Don't remember that. I was standing between bends one and two and we certainly cheered when we were awarded 5-1. And people clapped when he got up. Must have only been a few idiots. From my view point, it looked like Worrall steamed under Etheridge causing him to fall. I know it was irrelevant to score, but Worrall should have been excluded -
King's Lynn v Belle Vue 22/07/21
kelvinht replied to Bald Bloke's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Brilliant night, great racing and we WON!! Super atmosphere, helped by man on the mic. Best micman we've had for years Can we still sneak in playoffs?! -
Good start point, but I'd also have Riss back. He's had a poor start by his standards, but will pick up at some point, when he's on it he is exciting to watch. He's not a number one though so slot him in at 4. Need a decent no.1 to lead the team if we can find one!!

Stars v Panthers. Thursday 01/07/21
kelvinht replied to Bald Bloke's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
This season is well and truly down the pan. Lawson/Heeps/Mountain has definitely made us stronger, but just as we look like we might be turning a corner we lose TJ and Riss Be good to have some decent racing and a bit of fight from all the Lynn boys, even if/when we lose
