Could possibly see Chris joining now with Lambert allowing Allen and BWD starting at reserve. 5.97 left and the best rider around that average for me is Erik Riss. So could possibly see 1. Robert Lambert 2. Chris Holder 3. Richard Lawson 4. Jack Holder 5. Erik Riss 6. Jake Allen 7. Bradley Wilson Dean very strong looking team would have the best 2 reserves in the league for sure. Lambert and Holder a good a top two as there could be. Can one of Holder , Lawson and Riss step up. Riss has looked so good everytime ive seen him at Foxhall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the best team I’ve seen on here but probably way too expensive to assemble. If cost effective teams are the order of the day I wouldn’t be surprised to see Starkey return.

You couldn’t accommodate a 2 pointer for the #7 so won’t be that team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaColette Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Looks like you won't be getting Robert Lambert then. He's put on social media that looking like he won't be riding in the UK. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lambert is nowhere near Tai's level so no idea why he isnt doing Britain Maybe using the FB comment/post to see if anyone out there prepared to pay him enough money to stay in UK during next 2 weeks. Cant see any other reason to post the comment he did and invite comments. Cant see how this guy feels that his career will step up with 12 matches in POL LGE 2 if they don't make the play offs and 14 in SWE again if they don't make play offs. Maybe another one who thinks he is worth a lot more than British Speedway can offer in salary. Similar with maybe C.Holder who I heard had been offered as a 7 point man a pay deal rather than a 9 point plus man that he used to be when on top of his game. As for Lambert, why not just post he will not be racing in UK rather than tell people he plans to make an announcement in next 2 weeks. I think this is his way of fishing for a good paying UK deal. I could be wrong of course. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Will be interesting to hear his reasons but wouldn't blame any rider for opting out of our badly run, amateurish league set up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Lady Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Sounds as if his idea of his worth and that of UK promoters differ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't disagree but the loss of potentially 50 meetings if you take the Prem/Champ less the Swed meetings as he already rode the POL 2nd Div, how is his experience going to improve with so many less meetings ?? Maybe he feels that as the young Poles are improving without all those extra meetings then maybe he considers himself at a similar level and doesn't need all the travelling around UK. Problem is he is not a Drabik /Smektala or Woryna so he isn't at their level currently imo. Suppose he could sign in Denmark to take up some of the slack as riders can use the same bikes over the 2 Countries as they are now connected via road/bridge and you can do SWE Tue and DK Wed. No doubt we will hear more on his reasons in the coming 2 weeks (if a super deal isn't thrown his way to stay in UK). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only see this as a matter of money and absolutely nothing to do with the league set up. Indeed, if he was perfectly happy about not riding here he wouldn't have posted on facebook in the way that he has - he's trying to drum up interest from fans, sponsors etc to get them to back his case. While I am saddened to see a brilliant young rider - more so because he is British - not riding in our leagues, better that than give in to unreasonable demands. In this case, for me, British speedway promoters deserve a lot of credit. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 (edited) Absolutely, IF he is demanding a king's ransom then it's good that nobody has bowed to that. Edited December 16, 2017 by Bagpuss 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he realises that next season he'll probably be in the top 5 of the averages, thus one of the leagues star men. Why shouldn't he be paid for that?

With his continued improvement and 5 or 6 of the guys above him in the averages not riding here it's not unfeasible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
