Chewbacca Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 Really enjoyed the meeting despite the result. Some great racing and I thought Ludo was going to turn hiself inside out in heat15 looking for grip. A superb speedway race. As said, our lack of a #1 at home is hurting us badly.

As said, our lack of a #1 at home is hurting us badly. a think Lewis K's home for of late hasn't been the best, but last night, can't believe how he was chucked out for his fall,,, don't think it's lack of effort, some of its bad luck,,, we have Stevie, who is performing like a #1, but at #3 :-(,,, We know the highest ave. rider has to ride at #1,,, but would Stevie be of more benefit to the team riding at #5 ???

Terrace Grumbler Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 I think it's just that our riders are in and out: they have 7 point averages because, unlike the top guys, they can't and don't deliver every week. Such is life, and if there is no money to make changes, so be it. Robert Lambert's performance is testimony to George's ability to spot a rider. Last season would probably have been very different with RL and the King of Kings in the team. I thought last night saw the best racing of the season at Brough and I'm looking forward to next week, though I do wonder how competitive Plymouth will be.

dantodan Posted June 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 24 points from diamonds heat leaders against 32 from Peterborough was where the match was lost I agree but our team doesn't have any heatleaders we have a team of improving second strings, plus two reserves. The match was lost at heat 13 imo. Home numbers 1 and 5 should be reliable enough to get the points in heat 13. I like Lewi and Ludde but they are not yet heatleaders. I always cross my fingers for heats 13 and 15 and last night I crossed my toes too....and that is why I fell over, nothing to do with paying £3.50 a pint!!! So we roll on to Sheffield on Thursday and the way away teams are winning should we pencil in a win at Owlerton This post is directed at any member of the track staff. Every week now we seem to see the blade on the back of a tractor. I have always thought this TOOL was used by the daytime staff and isn't part of the normal night time track activities unless the track was very wet? The blade was used last night and so was the water bowser so the blade wasn't to skim off wet shale. I am interested and yes I do have an anorak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wealdstone Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 I really do not see that because Robert Lambert found it convenient to ride at Newcastle that he has answered his critics!!!. He was no doubt within his rights to miss Friday but so were King and Manzares but they made the effort 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crump99 Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 in your opinion mate - you are not aware of the full facts so i'd keep quiet until such time you are in possession of them. He makes a valid point and is quite entitled to make it. It's not his fault that he doesn't know the full facts as you put it. So come on Einstein, what doesn't he know? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrace Grumbler Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 I agree but our team doesn't have any heatleaders we have a team of improving second strings, plus two reserves. While I should say at the outset that I don't particularly want to see team changes, I don't think it's right to describe the team as you do. Rather, I think we have three of what used to be (in the days when the top three in a team's averages were heat leaders) third heat leaders, one (hopefully) improving second-string and a rider who probably isn't as good as he has been and is unlikely to improve at this stage of his career. Kerr and Worrall may - and I hope they do - train on: for me, on his day Ludde is in a different class to either but is hopelessly inconsistent - healways has been, and probably always will be (though he is by far the most entertaining rider we have, imo, and long may he remain a Diamond). If a change is to be made, were all bridges burned with Neddy? 100% gater but always gave his all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So come on Einstein, what doesn't he know? that is not a valid point as he was entitled to miss the meeting as per the FIM rule book - he decided to do what he was entitled to do. get that into your thick skull.. Slagging of Robert wont do him or the Panthers promotion any favours. It would appear that Young Robert and the Panthers promotion have moved on - and so should you and all the haters!

wealdstone Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 I am not aware of any Robert haters. Many however are concerned regarding him missing the Ipswich meeting and it may well be that in the fullness of time Robert himself may also come to see it as an error of judgement. I sure many would be only too pleased hear of the full facts. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So come on Einstein, what doesn't he know? maybe, while over in Denmark, little Roberts mam and dad took him to the real 'lego-land', whilst he could still pass an under 16, might as well kill 2 birds with the 1 stone, if ye can ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A response that Roberts Mum herself would be proud of. I'm not a Robert hater, but I am a hater of missing riders, losing and crap excuses. He hasn't answered his critics either, they've chosen to stick their fingers in their ears and wait for it to go away (moved on as you call it). So are you going to share the facts...? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crump99 Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 (edited) that is not a valid point as he was entitled to miss the meeting as per the FIM rule book - he decided to do what he was entitled to do. get that into your thick skull.. Slagging of Robert wont do him or the Panthers promotion any favours. It would appear that Young Robert and the Panthers promotion have moved on - and so should you and all the haters! Now having a pop at me I can appreciate as I'm not the most diplomatic but when Noodles also thinks that you're a dick then that says much Lambert will do what his advisors tell him to do (he'll grow his own mind as the years progress) and Panthers promotion will not publicly rubbish arguably their best rider. It has nothing to do with moving on, neither party wants to pour petrol on the fire to reignite it although it'll be smouldering away for as long as Lambert is a Panther ie. for the rest of 2015, Edited June 15, 2015 by Crump99 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justgotmecpc Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 I'M NOT A FAN OF TEAM CHANGES BUT ITS LOOKS LIKE WE ARE GOING TO STRUGGLE TO MAKE THE PLAY OFFS ??

ashtree123 Posted June 15, 2015 Report Share Posted June 15, 2015 MR LEWIS BLACKBIRD......................What a F 'in joke, Firstly he needs to explain why he wasn't at Newcastle last night!!!!!!!! He had a practice at Peterborough on Friday, said he felt good on a bike etc, so why no show last night, cannot say he was still un fit as he is riding tonight, and upto his usual self of taking riders out......felt sorry for Danny King. Made a pathetic excuse for his crash blaming his bike.......saying his front wheel stopped turning.....hahaha very funny, as they pushed the bike all the way back from bend 4 to the pits with no problems Management needs to have a re think on the return of Blackbird as well, cos in his previous ride before his crash, he came into the pits and went mental calling poor Ully a F**king W***er....seems to spit his dummy out when he thinks another rider puts him out wide....lol Bye Bye Baby Blackbird Close The Door On Your Way Out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
