paulnolan Posted July 27 Report Share Posted July 27 Second visit of the season to Brafield for King's Lynn but the Foxes should run them closer than the 41-47 last time out. 49-41 needed for the Foxes' first ever bonus point - can they do it?

I’d love to see Northampton get 3 points personally. Kings Lynn will battle to get another wooden spoon. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTT Posted July 28 Report Share Posted July 28 King's Lynn aren't going to achieve anything until drastic changes occur. Jan Kvech hasn't improved at all since stepping foot on British soil. Ben Cook is the biggest throttle jockey the Sport has seen in recent years to a point where he's only consistent around tracks that don't require much skill (NSS and Polish tracks) 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bomber is also up and down, but gives it his all. Add 3 youngsters in the team who are naturally still learning their trade. Nothing seems to work, however we build our teams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulnolan Posted July 28 Author Report Share Posted July 28 A good win for the Foxes, about the best you can expect from that team and it's nice to see them finally do it. Still some issues, obviously, such as the second-best rider wearing the #2 race jacket and two 1-5s in the most vital heats, but you have to enjoy it while you can! Still a lovely place to watch speedway from the grandstand! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need riders on 6-7 who are consistent like a Richard Lawson for example. Harris at his age is just as likely to score 10 as he is 5 imo but he will give it 100% in every race he competes in. Kvech should be moved on as his off nights hurt the Team badly as he keeps on getting new KL deals every winter with a vision of him becoming a solid No.5. B. Cook doesn't really care about British Speedway and he's only useful for Belle Vue to ride the NSS most weeks imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
