Thought it was next to the cabinet that holds the spares for the pit gate.

What where the too short screws for the hinges and the left handed screwdriver is.That pit gate is always gonna cause a problem.

I personally would love to see us go into the Championship.

More teams and a better chance of being competitive at that level.

Surely more cost effective for the promotion also.

Only negative as far as I'm concerned is that most of the other tracks are pretty distant if you like going to away meetings.

I thought the last stint in the lower tier with Daniel Nermark at the helm made for excellent entertainment.

Rob Lyon said in a recent podcast that there is NO chance Lynn will be dropping to the championship, as we’re a premiership club… simple as that

I agree we should be a Premiership club, as Lynn is an institution of British speedway, but we do need to start acting like one. Let’s say we assemble the “strength in depth” team that has been rumoured 1. Lawson; 2. Iversen; 3. Klindt; 4. Kvech; 5. Cook; 6. Harris. Minus Jan I look at that team and think it’s a Championship team anyway. 

I know for whatever reason it didn’t work out this year, but at least people were excited about our team before the tapes went up for the first time. 

We had a proven Premiership No. 1, a No. 5 who had significant room for improvement and the best reserve pairing in the league. The only thing on paper that let our starting 2024 side down was our middle order. 

We need to go down the same team building route to stand any chance this year and that does require a genuine No 1 being in the team. 

1. Fricke/Tungate (if they become available depending on what Leicester and Oxford do) - 9.14 / 7.71 

2. Iversen - 6.83

3. Klindt - 6.59

4. Kvech - 6.58

5. B Cook - 6.99

6. Boughen - 3.00 / Kerr - 4.77

Total - 39.13 / 39.47

This years top 4 will be next years also, and so on.

Oxford maybe making a stronger go of it if they get one of Sheffields HL's to add to two of their current top three..

good luck getting that team under the champs points limit

its only about 15 points over 

i think we saw at the end of last season what can be achieved with a solid line up, add a heavyweight reserve to that and a bit of luck with injuries and things could go well

i just dont think a big name number one is likely for a number of reasons

0% chance of Oxford letting Tungate go after the season he had for them.

 

1. B. Cook 6.99 (Dickson said Lawson is staying at Leicester apparently)

2. Kvech 6.58

3. Iversen 6.83

4. Klindt 6.59

5. Basso 6.89

6. 5.12 or 6.12 left depending on a 39.00 or 40.00 limit

7. Jenkins (RS)

 

Best 5.12 or Under options (Lampart 4.93, Kerr 4.89, Wojdylo 4.74, Mountain 4.49 or Palm Toft 4.13)

Best 6.12 or Under options (All of the above + S. Worrall 5.84 & Z. Cook 5.57)

I know your listing that team, with what you think  other clubs line up's might be as well. But that would be top 4 gone before you start imho. I can see that loosing 2 or 3 at home, and getting spanked on the road, so not much chance of any aggerate points.  Paddy is a no no (2.82 away) Kerr, Mountain, Tofty, no thanks. 

Somehow we have to fit a very good second string at No.6 if we go the strength in depth route. Bomber maybe. At the end of the day, money will dictate the side to an extent, and our crowds, ain't that good unfortunately. If you ain't getting a top No1, you must go all out to get 6 good second strings. 5 won't be enough with no No.1  imho. Not easy i know. But the alternative will probably mean bottom 2 again. 

NKI

Lawson

Harris

Kvech

Klindt

Basso/ B cook 

RS

39.86 or 39.96  Get it done :P

Are you sure?
When he joined the Stars in June, the announcements only mentioned he was doing so "for the remainder of the season". 
Whilst it would be good to see him back in the UK, it's looking unlikely.

And if you read the message on social media from Basso's mum you will see that he will not be riding in the UK next year.

Certainly how he was a letdown like museliak not returning, he’s not worth a position. Jog on.
