hadn't looked at fixture list..doh!!

Needs to be some rule going forward that meetings being called off based on a forecast should only be allowed on morning of meeting, not day(s) before Any reason this wasn't simply pushed back to Thursday as that is an official league night?

Weather forecast showing heavy rain til 6pm, light rain til 10pm...hmmmmm... If it goes ahead, this could be a decent match, hopefully Stars nicking the win

This was a decent event up until now. Tomorrow's teams are taking the p1ss and devalues the whole tournament. I have no issue with teams using who they want in their teams, but why no Doyle, Fricke, Zagar....and I'm not really sure why Lynn have gone for Lawson over Pickers as I'd have thought he was a deffo round his old track. Have the top teams been told to field substandard teams to even things up before the final round? No wonder there has been no promotion of this event. British Speedway doing its best to screw things up yet again

Stars snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. Was always going to be tough run in with Doyle in 2 programmed rides, plus heat 15 and the tac, but we should still have got the match over the line Thought the start Marshall was also at fault with Klindts exclusion, was more interested in waiting for 2 mins to expire and point it out to the ref than trying to bring everyone to the start as usually happens with an impartial start marshall. Disappointed with the cheer that went round the stadium when Pickers and Jorgensen came down. They did at least give the riders a clap when they got to their feet.

Hoping I can be happy like I was leaving foxhole in League cup

Heard rumours that Peterborough will ride their home matches at Kings Lynn til they get a new track....

With the way king was riding it was always going to be a tough run in. To be honest I expected a worse result in heat 15, but Klindt finally got his act together (according to his Twitter account he'd been having clutch issues). We never looked like winning to be honest as we just weren't winning races. We should have done better in heat 13 and Ippo reserves had been mostly ineffectual most of the match (although always in the mix), so to lose heat 14 5-1 was the final nail. Edwards rode well in his third ride, giving Doyle a good run for his money, would have been tempted to leave him in his last ride rather than give it to Anderson. A few reports keep banging on about a weakened Ipswich winning, but the stars were also weakened. Playoffs now a distant dream. We needed to win at wolves last week and any slim chance has now gone. I'll still head down to foxhole next week though so we can get some sort of revenge!

Indeed!.. That was my first thought too!

Update say recurrence of old injury. Assume his wrists aren't fully healed

Kerr at 6 on Thursday will make us weak if he already knows he is on the way out, not that he would score much anyway.... unless he feels he has a point to prove. Why does Jakobsen have to wait til next week?

I'm not seeing anything from Alex on twitter? I expect we won't hear until dust has settled on British Final. Get distinct impression British speedway don't like to have too much news in one go!

I'm just over an hour away from Kings Lynn (and Ippo when I venture south of the border), so aim to arrive at 7pm for 7.30pm start - gives a bit of time to get in and flexibility for 'minor' traffic probs. If I'm travelling further afield I'll allow at least an hour if not more spare time

The silence is deafening on our no.1 plans. Hope that doesn't mean we are going to limp along with R/R Makes one wonder if they really do have a plan b.....

Wouldn't too excited about tonights performance. It was a good win, but no top heat leaders against us so we will look good

That's how I read, NKI if his team aren't in playoffs, if they are they have a plan b which will be from another team not in playoffs. Means r/r or guests for a couple more away matches.....

In the 'good old days' if both teams were missing a number one or similar standard rider, both would use their number 8....

Yep, looks like r/r for Masters Easy home win now

It's only Wolves. They rarely do well at Lynn. Even with r/r should be enough in the tank...

Didn't really see the point of putting TJ in heat 14, Jason deserved his 4 ride based on 2 points in his previous ride and looking competitive. Match was Well truly lost by then. If you were going to bother with change I'd have stuck him in instead of Lewi. Decent racing as always at Belle Vue, shame about the sh*t result. Lynn boys seem to be overriding. You need to be smooth at BV and build your speed, not fighting the bike all the time

probably the latter! He was saying on twitter or somewhere that he was hoping to kick start his international career in that international challenge

Cookie pulled out, now r/r

Good luck with that. Was at Bryan Adams Friday night, hour and half to get out of car park! Oh and avoid alysham road due to roadworks, Holt road better option

Alex and Allit both stated in Thursdays program that they can't find any suitable replacement for Niels and hope to have him back in August as polish fixtures winding down. Possibly too late by then though

Does Harris fit for r/r for Neils? Would liven the meeting up and give us a fighting chance?
