SCB Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Tuesday's result has obviously triggered something at Somerset, just seen on twitter that Lanham has been released/left this afternoon! I see no obvious replacement.... Should be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gr8scot Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 No comment on the initial "insult" that provoked this one? If there are more insults George, I will say the same to them...... There is no need for personal insults 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don`t think Leigh or Brady have let the Rebels down, both have improved their averages, to the tune of about two points. Brady sits about 6th in the Prem avarages I think, and Leigh`s starting average was dragged down by bad injuries last season. I agree that he is unlucky to be going, and Ritchie I should imagine had been sweating. Gary has a good record in tweaking the team if he has too, famously bringing in Charles Wright for Stefan Neilsen in 2013 and going for JPM instead of Masters in 2012, when Sam wasn`t really on it. No complaints though from Leigh on Twitter, hope he gets fixed up asap. TBH havent a clue who they will bring in though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Najjer Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 I see no obvious replacement.... Should be interesting. Rasmus Jensen. Gary and Debbie up to their usual tricks lose a couple of matches and heads start to roll. Usual tricks or not, the Somerset promotion are ruthless when they need to be and as has already been said have made some inspired signings at this point of the season before.

Leigh is an utter gentleman, he wouldn't complain and that is why the comic duo of May and Hancock have ousted him!!! He was easy prey !!! Either way it stinks !!!

He was easy prey !!!. Perhaps it's a throw back to May's "riding" days ( what there were of them) ! Mike Lanham was riding then (Leigh's dad). Perhaps it's an old sore!!! Either way it stinks !!! It's a results business and in recent weeks Lanham hasn't cut the mustard, simple as that. Â We are trying to win the league, and willing to get rid of whoever we need to to try and make that happen. Fair play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lewy Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Cheque book speedway again,makes a mockery of the pl,win at all costs as per usual with the rebs,if it is raz plymouth will be glad of the loan fee especially as we couldn't afford him this season,i think you should have stuck with lanham his experience would be invaluable in the playoffs imo 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read your race cards before you pass comment on something. Compo didn't cut the mustard for over 3 months but May stuck with him !!! English guy bites dust in favour of foreigner ! !!

Why are they a comic duo ???? Somerset have done rather well with these two at the helm. Leigh and most other riders understand its a results game, and if the management feel a change is necessary so be it. Try telling Alex Ferguson who too put in his team, "Don`t play Keane this week Alex he`s not very nice" .

lewy Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 A decent manager would have stayed true to the deal with jack holder but didn't want him on his correct average,happy to have kurtz on a false average last season though really hope the monarchs win the league they deserve it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
