With Pickering having a poor meeting the chance was there for Lynn, if their 6 pointers could beat Kerr There it is - 6 pointers couldn't beat a reserve. What does that equal? Inconsistent. That's what 6 pointers are. Of course it was the heatleaders that cost King's Lynn the meeting. 11 points from a possible 28. King's Lynn scored 3 from 10 in the 2 most important heats of the meeting when it's tight, heats 13 & 15. Both teams No6s pretty much levelled out the meeting. The No1 & No5s were, without question, the difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He couldn't beat juniors on his own track yesterday 4 pts from five rides. Are the management that thick at Lynn? If they had a brain cell between them they would be looking to put Luke Harrison or someone of his capabilities. Boughen needs to be taken out of the firing line. Yes he looks fantastic when he gates. Bloody hell he beat Doyle round Ipswich last season, he looked the real deal. Shutting of going into the 1st bend will get him nowhere. Get him back in the third division. Let him get his confidence back. He might then come back next year a better rider. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get it, I do, but there isn't a 'Rising Star' on the list that will make a significant difference to winning meetings. That's my point. 2 changes (1 being a No1) in the top 5 is far more important than replacing the No7 if you want to make a Play-Off charge.

There probably isn't a rising star that would make a difference to the scoring.But what I want to see is commitment from a rider and to never give up like Boughen has on numerous occasions,that's the difference.What I have seen of Harrison,Scott they don't give up no matter what the position they are in a race.That's what I want to see for my money,effort!!,not the opposite. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Harrison Jody Scott were all very impressive at Glasgow fearless in the first bend mixed it with the never say die attitude , but are they ready to take the big step up to premiership Luke is doing well in the championship and think it won’t faze him great attitude and race skills Jody maybe needs a full season there as well ,I also think Sam Hagon may have turned the corner this year with his last couple of performances ,after winning the under 21 championship last year he had a great season Joe Thomson would have been a good signing if they were quicker of the mark think he will be as good as his brother Dan what about Vinnie Foord ? Pretty sure he qualifies as a R/S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnieg Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago I've never been overly impressed by Sam Hagon, but having see the way he flew past Rowe, Zac Cook and Tobias Thomsen on Saturday and the way he came back from a poor start on Sunday [which speaks to his mental strength] I am rapidly upgrading my view of him.

Pretty sure he qualifies as a R/S Harrison makes the most sense considering he is in the young stars team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youhave2minutes Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago (edited) A playoff spot definetly out of the equation. Ipswich 2 inform riders missing with injuries and still pulled off a win at Birmingham. You watch Lynn next Monday go down with the Brummies. THAT WILL BE EMBARRASSING.

That is my exact fear, the way we’re going atm I feel like we will lose against the Brummies… and if that ends up being the case then I’m done with going to watch them this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
