Totally agree with you Steve, well 99.9% of your post, British na ENGLISH!!

At last I read a post that recognises the serious talent that Lambert is

Bronze in the U21, um & who did he beat in run off!

Yep agree, but he is improving every year, fact

All the talk about Holder at NO1, me thinks Lambert could push him hard for the NO1 jacket if he carries improving like he has over the last 3 years. ENGLISH pride!

Dan Bewley must be on every promoters want list

Lambert is improving every year, the lad is only 18! IMO will finish on a higher average than Hans in 2017

If you are thinking of sponsorship, would you not rather put it into a ENGLISH rider, say Lambert ?

Need a Noddy, the look of this team I think it needs a Dudek!

The look of this team makes me shudder!

The first person that I can remember who first used a van was Kristian Praestbro when he was riding for Cradley Heath

He had a 2002 BMW before his Volvo

Good team apart from the 3 Aussies!

Give me a Pole over a Aussie any day!!

True, I can get to Falubaz faster than I can get to the OTA on a Friday night!!!

Totally agree with you regarding riders not hit the Rev limiter on UK tracks. I honestly believe that the vast majority of riders are pulling much to higher gearing & the engine is not revving enough! Stand on turn 4 at Swindon is a good example, you can clearly hear the engine dying in the corner. I go to a lot of GPs & always go to practice, the only rider whos engine is revving significantly MUCH higher is Nicki Pedersen

Hans Nielsen would go from the start on barely tick over, on the other hand, Mark Loram would rev the engine to the heavens!

Whether at the start line or on a stand, still free revving

I believe more engine damage is done in the pits over revving engines on the stand than on the track!

Belgravia, more like bellend!

I know this topic is about what makes a good team managers, but last night at the Garry Stead evening and Halifax reunion, having a long chat with Garry I was horrified to hear of a very successful and current team manager, who I DID have the upmost respect for. I am finding it very hard not to name and shame the person I am referring to. It makes my blood boil, with the person in question who promised to donate items for Garry's auction but never did. and lets be honest Garry is the nicest guy you could wish to meet. I hope the manager in question reads this - shame on you!

That's when you have to stay strong

If you are looking for a programme, John Somerville might be able to help you out. You will need long arms & very deep pockets though!

Totally agree with your comments regarding track prep after stocks, just look at Scunthorpe, arguably the best track in the country!

Totally agree, good on ya Screeny helping your fellow countryman out, was there to!
