King's Lynn Stars 2025


Recommended Posts

Having watched Ben’s interview on BSN last night, I’m getting some serious doubts whether he will be back in Stars colours this season. I can see something similar happening like it did with Pickering a couple of seasons ago, and Belle Vue managing to find a way to declare him in their 1-7

I have the same thoughts about Ben  unfortunately - also with Leicester winning at Ipswich last night I’d say play offs are fast becoming a distant dream for the Stars the Ko is our best chance of silverware especially with Ipswich injury problems

I'm finding it hard how people think Ben won't be back based on that interview last night,unless I didn't see the whole interview that was on Facebook.

Probably because he really didn't sound that keen to get back.It could just be his mannerisms ,or how he is but he didn't sound keen to get back and I don't think he actually mentioned the stars once. I hope I'm wrong

I just automatically fear the worst now, given what has happened in the last 3 seasons:

Jakobsen - 2023

Laguta - 2023

Pickering - 2023

Musielak - 2024

Tarasenko - 2024

Appreciate Ben will put Leszno first (understandably), just hope they don’t try and put the block on him. Assume he has to ride in the UK anyway given he’s living in Poole and his visa situation.

Hope Luke Harrison replaces Boughen.

Should have went for Joe T, but that ship has well and truly sailed. Think Jody would be a better option around Saddlebow Road (maybe sign both and have one as a no.8 so they are interchangeable) if that still exists…

From his posts i think Luke's father has his head screwed on properly, from any interviews i've heard with Luke it seems the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. I cannot see him going to RS at any PL team unless they both think the time is right and Luke can do himself justice. He's a very talented young rider, if he moves up i doubt he wants to be slagged off like just about every other RS. I'd say pretty much the same about Jody Scott too, though i think a PL RS position would be a step too far at the moment, needs to establish himself at CL level.

Lynn need championship racing next season  not premiership 

Premiership needs King's Lynn though.Maybe it all needs to be Championship next season.

Very much agree. They seem clever enough to move up one stage at a time to better Luke's career. For me the next step would be to take guest booking for a RS, not that there's many options, hopefully none as we don't want injuries.
