Peterborough Panthers V Ipswich Witches -12/06/2015


Recommended Posts

The warning signs were there against Berwick where we got out of jail..so I went to tonights meeting expecting us to lose against a poor Ipswich team and we did. Simon Lamberts good form has glossed over a patched up team that needs changes so its no surprise to me that as soon as he has a bad one we lose. I'm sorry but Greenwood is too slow, has been all season and is not improving. And as good as R.Lambert is I'd rather not have him if he's not comitted (how many league matches has he ridden!?). Something needs to be done and soon..

But hey it's not all bad..we are in a good position and maybe this is the wake up call we needed..I Trust Ged Rathbone to get it right.

Also I stayed on to watch the Danish guy and he looked as fast as Blackbird on track..so I wonder what the plans are?

this was taken from Peterborough's web site. In support of Robert Lambert.

 

Lambert is within his rights to miss the Premier League clash as it comes 24 hours after his involvement in an FIM meeting while Panthers are entitled to a facility. They will operate rider replacement to cover his absence.

So were King and Manzares but they made it back along with there bikes as well, hes a talented rider but hes not as big as the team hes pushing his luck now especially with the fans , has he not said he wants to ride in Poland next season so it looks like hes not thinking of returning to Peterborough which maybe a good thing anyway

Did the danish guy go round with Blackbird if so he must be looking to return at Newcastle

Statement of fact and hardly support.

 

Then we have King & Manzares at the EoES making the excuses look rather limp: "But Lambert has told them he does not have sufficient time to travel back from Vojens in Denmark" & "we were hoping robert would be able to get his machines back from denmark this isnt possible"

Good news if King is going to be there but still giving it a miss still rather fed up at the Witches performance last night .

 

 

 

Hoping that i regret it later and the Witches put some effort into it tonight but right now i don't think that will happen

Have to say I'm pleased to have been proven wrong well done Witches just please show the the same sort of fight and commitment for the rest of the season

Does Lambert have any continental bookings this weekend?

 

Not sure about on the continent, but Lambert does have a booking at Newcastle with Peterborough. :blink:

What right has Lambert got in missing any fixture for Peterborough, in these circumstances, he wasn't injured, he wasn`t stranded somewhere where there was no flights back to GB that couldn't get him to the EoES on time.

So were King and Manzares but they made it back along with there (sic) bikes as well.....

exactly.

 

That statement on the official website is nearly as disgraceful as the way R.Lambert let us down.

 

 

hes a talented rider but hes not as big as the team hes pushing his luck now especially with the fans......

I'm sure he'll get a frosty reception at the next home meeting when the team gets introduced in front of the stand. I don't suppose he will give a toss - but it'll make us feel better!

He's obviously too bigtime to worry about the premier league..just like Woffinden is too big time to worry about the British league and then tries to act like some big ambassador for the sport in this country...just because he's good at riding a motorbike and has a fast engine..no one would care if he was crap!...young Lambert has probably been brainwashed by the little twerp during the world cup.

FIM!!! When is British Speedway going to say enough. That load of idiots have no idea on how British speedway is run, they have never been interested, and we should go it alone.

Yes he was, and so was Manzares.

 

Nice try though!

 

The news didn't get around then?

 

Rathbone added: “It is a difficult situation concerning Robert. Everyone is well aware that Danny and Gino both made it back from the Race-Off.

 

“They were in a slightly different position as they had bikes in the UK to return to whereas Robert’s bikes were with him in Denmark.

King was not riding his world cup bikes last night.

Danny King drove back overnight from Vojens and caught the early morning ferry over to the UK Friday morning, well that's what he said in the pits last night and full credit to him.

The bikes King was riding last night at the showground, were the exact bikes he was riding in Denmark. Edited by Catch22
