King's Lynn Stars 2025

I think two big 9+ average big hitters is too much, makes the rest of the team too weak and too much “strength in depth” is also not great… if we could happen to get Tungate and Kvech at 1&5 and have a solid middle order then I think that would definitely be enough for top 4

Yeah 2 big hitters like Emil and Jason, they’ve won loads of league titl… oh wait 

Missed out last year in the final heat of the final meeting and missed out this year when both become injured! It’s no coincidence that the three clubs that seem to be competing for the title in recent years (Ipswich, Belle Vue, Sheffield) all have two big hitters. Emil/Doyle, Bewley/Kurtz, Holder/Woffinden. Poole another example, won every year with a top heavy team with Chris Holder and Darcy ward. It’s clearly the way to go to have the biggest chance of success.

We didn't win because of "Strength in Depth". Many wins were because of excellent guest choices. we were rock bottom with our original team.

lol

we had some good guests and some who struggled but the whole point is that the team put out post musielak and his facility expiring were solid with a modest number one and strength down the order whether with our riders or guests and the irony is that some of those guests might be in the team next year

essentially not spunking loads of money on a world star doesnt mean a lack of ambition. in fact building a team with harris at reserve for example would show some

27.91 leaves plenty for the other 2.. 12.09 for 39, 13.09 for 40 point limit.

RS

somebody at some point suggested lawson kvech iversen basso klindt harris and a rs (jenkins maybe) and id bite your hand off for that 

would not get beaten at home and be very competitive away

Ive edited my post. It comes to 28.05 from October 1st. Still leaves either 10.95 of 11.95 if the limit is 39 or 40.

Your team above is 39.88 after the Brits -2.5%. That would do me:D

I suggested that team… but I just have a feeling that Oxford will need to leave Tungate out rather than Harris, to allow Woffinden to fit in along with Janowski

In an ideal world you would have a blend of top end and strength in depth, especially to win your home meetings significantly to gain the aggregate bonus point. In my head the the perfect makeup of a team to get you to the magic 39 points should be (or as close as you can get):

1 - 8.5 (Lebedevs 8.0 )

2 - 6 (Iversen 6.83) 

3 -  7 (Kvech 6.58)

4 - 6 (Klindt 6.59)

5. - 7 (Lawson 7.09 / 6.91)

6 - 4.5 (Rowe 5.21 / 3.91)

7 - RS

Total 39 (38.82)

1. Sam Masters 7.32

2. Kyle Howarth 5.05

3. Nicolai Klindt 6.59

4. Danny King 6.14

5. Niels Kristian Iversen 6.83

6. Lewis Kerr 4.77

Come on you’re better than that. You know even Buster won’t put a team out that’s 3.3 or 2.3 under the limit to start a season. Maybe at the end, but not at the start
