tellboy Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) Simon Lambert confirmed... http://www.kingslynnstars.co/2016/01/28/lambert-is-rider-number-six/ Also states the search for the last heat leader goes on. Certainly need a very good number 1 now,as close to the points limit we have left which is close to nine(8.81),assuming Lambert is a 3.00.Which he should be as he was in the second round of picks.We have the weakest reserve pairing in the league in my opinion.

mrss Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 Simon Lambert is a good signing he is the best we could hope for after losing Kerr. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a very weak reserve pairing, Simon Lambert is ok but nowhere near most number 6 reserves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pubichair Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) Poor team so far. Only Troy and Robert will improve! Need a big hitter at 1 if not we will be near the bottom Edited January 28, 2016 by hair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trees Posted January 28, 2016 Report Share Posted January 28, 2016 Poor team so far. Only Troy and Robert will improve! Need a big hitter at 1 if not we will be near the bottom You don't think Lewis Rose will improve then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semion Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Still find it amazing that Buster would let Kerr go to a rival without a fight and now to compound matters he brings in Simon Lambert. If Chapman doesn't find this elusive big hitter then he is asking for the floating fan at Lynn to give it a miss. The regulars will be there come what may, no doubt. Fingers crossed they can pull something out of the fire, but with a little over 6 weeks to go the signs ain't looking good. After all how weeks has it taken them to announce Lambert in place of Kerr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need a big hitter at 1 if not we will be near the bottom Troy will improve? Wouldn't bank on that. Unless of course he discovers his bottle again.

Pirates Of Poole Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Poor looking team and I cant see a number 1 becoming available, my guess the KL management hope NKI may have a last minute change of heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimmo Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Troy will improve? Wouldn't bank on that. Unless of course he discovers his bottle again. Agreed, not a good signing at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haza Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 This team needs a big signing at no1 or it's going to be a long struggle this coming season . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Smith Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Just to share, Simon Lambert EL average for last season was an impressive 2.87 from 20 matches for Leicester Lions. I do feel the No'1 will need to knock in maximums week in week out to keep us in meetings as the reserves will get pummelled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Simon Lambert is a good signing he is the best we could hope for after losing Kerr. Agree, it's probably the best signing for the Stars, given who was left. Can't see many Stars being happy with what looks on paper the weakest reserve pairing. Both will do OK at home tho I'd expect. Interesting that the comment 'no timescale' is made for the last signing. is it possible they will seek guests until a number one becomes available? ?

ivanhoward Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 How about signing Niels for the entire season and then when he disappears after 1 month he would be with holding his services so a guest would be allowed until a replacement could be found. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanF Posted January 29, 2016 Report Share Posted January 29, 2016 Given that the heat leader list goes away with the first set of averages, you have to wonder if some of the remaining heat leaders have already got positions lined up elsewhere. Wouldn't surprise me if the likes of Bjerre already have a place lined up at a team that already has three heat leaders. No information, just a hunch.

Id be surprised if that wasn't happening to be honest. Coventry look like one that could make a change like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
