A post on the Glasgow Vs Newcastle thread: "Another great score off captain fabulous que the Lindgren can do no wrong brigade" The 'Lindgren can do no right brigade' are very quiet tonight though, aren't they? Aye, Lindgren had a bad night at Glasgow, but he more than made up for it tonight... Wish I had been there to see it happen on track, not just online... All riders are capable of doing things wrong, and all riders are capable of doing things very right... On a side note, another impressive night's work from Alfie Bowtell, he's really coming on strong, again, wish I had been thereto see how it happened... xD

I'm disappointed, I can't make this meeting today, good luck to all 14??? riders tonight, stay safe and race well

If we sign Aaron Summers and Nike Lunna we can do a bit of cost cutting as we don;t even have to buy them wigs

But we're not helping it, I know it'd cost a lot of money to have big riders, but we could still make steps towards having them, like not limiting the teams to 40... I know, but I can live in hope until Glasgow announce him!! NOOO!!! Don't even joke about that Yep, I think so too... Thank god Perks is missing, gives us an advantage!! Nicholls and Robson, yes please

Neither can I, but who knows, no one expected Robert to stay last year... Every year, people say a north south league, I think we just need to wait and see I want to see Steve and Richie, only if the team building limits increase, say to 42.5 or maybe even 45... If it stays at 40, Steve should be a big priority, with the likes of Ludvig, Rose and maybe even Kus backing him up... Well, PL teams have already started I think we focus too much on bringing on youth riders to help team GB and don't focus enough on making entertaining league racing so that clubs can survive and make profits... Just my opinion of course... The PL and CL should be about pure racing with the best riders in the world, and the NL, MDL, NJL and SDL should be about developing young riders...

And if all else fails, he can throw his red nose into their chain...

His big clown shoes might limit him though...

I don't see Robert riding for Peterborough..... Also, why did he have to pull out of the meeting last night? Is he ok? Assuming the league stays the same Robert, Rose, Jorgensen and L. Bjerre would be a good core for the team, just need a few decent riders (THJ and another???) And probably a GBR reserve to complete the team, so it'd look something like 1. An other??? Lebedevs??? 2. Lewis Rose 3. Thomas H Jonasson 4. Thomas Jorgensen 5. Robert Lambert 6. Lasse Bjerre 7. GBR reserve??? (Lewis Kerr if he'd fit and have THJ at 1 and go for a more depth team? Maybe Lebedevs as he'd come in on a small average) I'm going to stay positive that King's Lynn will ride again next season

Well he did say last week that he was getting the final measurements and changes done

Hopefully it'll be like Robert this year, with Poland, and Steve can stay at Newcastle too!!

Easy for me, Stevie, even if the point limit goes up, Stevie and Richie would be my top 2 Unfortunately, you could well be right

Really? Was it like the Jason Lyons situation?

I would definitely give Alfie a team spot next year, as long as he's partnered with a rider like Ashley, Danny Phillips and Alfie Bowtell, for example, would give us the same problems as this year!! I love Ashley, but as a reserve... I also love when he does win, he doesn't wheelie and show off, he gets the crowd pumped up and that's great for the atmosphere, I'd definitely keep him for next year 6. Ashley Morris 7. Alfie Bowtell, (a fit) Danny Phillips??? I feel bad for Hopwood, but I feel that he will be a victim of his own success, the fact he's not a 2.00 rider may freeze him out of a team spot for next year... I hope not...

Yeah, that would make sense, I'm not having a go that Robson got his first, it was just a joke more than anything... I remember Paul Starke riding for us in 2012 maybe... I don't remember exactly... He didn't get a race suit at all... Yes yes, true, maybe I should have said home debut... And I meant Edinburgh at home On July 30th!! Not away, I know Robson didn't ride for us then

Keep your 50p, it's just too much to risk losing on either of us... I don't want to be responsible for your loss I'm sure, because Edinburgh was Robbo's debut, was it not, that Alfie didn't have kevlars, because I posted "Alfie must feel great, he waits for his kevlars for weeks, and Robbo gets his straight away" So I don't think he had them, according to me and a few others on the night after the meeting

Ben Hopwood, to me, has been the surprise of the season, he might not be the best or fastest rider, but the effort he shows and some of the passes he does make and how he defends his line, it's great to watch

Noooo, don't steal all the riders I want to see at Newcastle Richie, Rene, Theo, you'll be wanting Steve, Robbo, Ludvig and Rose next As far as I'm aware, and I have been to all the home and some of the away meetings recently... I have never seen Alfie in a set of Newcastle kevlars for this year, although I may be wrong, and I am a lot of the time...

7 riders make up a team, don't like or want Sarjeant, personally

Pijper is another rider I have my eye on... I've always liked him, and his average is as low as ever!!

Yes, I do have a feeling he'll be back at Glasgow... But I'd love to see him at Brough with his brother... For sure, I was going to mention when is he getting his new kevlars, but I didn't want that to sound like a dig at the club...

I'd like to be able to watch Richie every week next year..... All 7 of the diamonds deserve praise for last night, even the two reserves, Alfie is really impressing me lately and if he continued, I'd invite him back as our lone 2.00 rider at reserve next year...

Thanks for the information, I had no idea Yes, Robert clearly is the best u-19 in Europe (Probably the world, unless there's an Aussie I've not heard of?)

I thought he must have been new to managing this year, although I never pay attention to the managers at all... Adams??? (Edit: Peter Adams, I'm not having a good day when it comes to names... ) Wolverhampton are SUPPOSED to be my favourite PL team as well xD

What are people's opinion on Jim Lynch? I'd never even heard or seen of him until he was on the tv this year, where has he come from? Is he a good manager? Just struggling with situations?

What I was saying is that the two Poles are both very good riders, who you seemed (or I got the impression) that you were saying were all that special, and Robert is also just as good, which is what you said, yes, sorry if I misunderstood what you were trying to say, all 3, Robert and the 2 Poles are just as good as eachother imo
