Noodles Posted May 2, 2015 Report Share Posted May 2, 2015 Agreed! it's pretty obvious that Lambert wasn't ill last night and until the BSPA crack down on these sort of stunts that teams pull they will be taken advantage of. How do you know he wasn't ill? Do you know for a fact he wasn't or, as I suspect, are you just guessing? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the thing.One day you are ill or signed off and the next day you aren't.We don't know for a fact Robert wasn't signed off or ill yesterday and is fit today......sometime there is an end to most sickness.We can think he has pulled a fast one or maybe Peterborough wanted him to,but we can't prove anything 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crump99 Posted May 2, 2015 Report Share Posted May 2, 2015 In other words.....cheating. Cheating the public at the very least for this meeting? "Teen talent Robert Lambert, who returns to Panthers colours at Plymouth after missing their three most recent meetings" was posted on Friday so when was it known that he wouldn't be riding? How do you know he wasn't ill? Do you know for a fact he wasn't or, as I suspect, are you just guessing? Did you see any tweets, news items or posts to say that he wasn't riding? Honesty stops people guessing or looking for a story which apparently isn't there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too only made the 60 mile round trip in the hope of seeing Lambert. It was announced on the centre green when we got there, that he was ill in Germany and unable to make it! Thank goodness Barker was there, so it wasnt a complete disappointment. Unfortunately there isnt much to fill anyone with a sense of excitement in the Devils team. However, it was good to see Simota having a go and a much improved performance from him last night.

It was announced on the centre green when we got there, that he was ill in Germany and unable to make it! That's the bit that's confusing. There's nothing in Panthers match preview or report which says that he was in Germany. If he was then he was never going to be at plymouth was he (I doubt that he'd be doing the round trip from Germany just for this meeting?), so you could have saved yourself the expense if that was the case Edited May 2, 2015 by Crump99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether he was ill or not,how can the BSPA crack down on this sort of thing when they do it themselves.Promoters from Belle Vue and Poolex2 in the last few seasons have had a meeting called off because of unavailability of one of their star riders with no facility being allowed.So they cannot crack down on riders doing this until they sort themselves out first. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noodles Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 The club have recieved official documentation required to confirm Robert's illness. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crump99 Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 The club have recieved official documentation required to confirm Robert's illness. Doesn't answer the question of when on Friday they knew that he wasn't riding, as the Panthers news item said that he was? One assumes that his 24 hour sick note was issued hours before the Plymouth meeting? Who saw anything to say as such? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dekker Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 (I doubt that he'd be doing the round trip from Germany just for this meeting?) If he's a contracted rider he is expected too, tough if he misses his hot schnitzel n hot frau. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
