g13webb Posted May 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 One has to ask, how come Lambert cant get back from Polish meeting, when there were others who did. Sam Masters rode in the same meeting on Sunday but arrived back in plenty of time for Wolves 's 12noon meeting with Belle Vue... There were plenty of riders who raced in Poland yesterday and are down to compete in the UK today, Is Lambert the only one caught up in the late flights ???? I find that very strange. The Stars missing their best inform rider... He has in effect ruined Lynn chances in the KO cup this year.... What a shambles... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IainB Posted May 7, 2018 Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 KL do have form in mugging off the paying punter at Leicester, the 2 times they rode at Leicester last year they turned up with 4 guests and R/R and 2 guests and R/R If they can't be bothered why should I? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted May 7, 2018 Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 Delayed flights happen, that's life. Nobody's fault, just circumstances. But why should the paying public suffer? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are a very cynical fellow. How did he do it then, slip the pilot a tenner to delay the flight 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
full-throttle Posted May 7, 2018 Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 I was at Eye Green today and bumped into Roberts dad, he wasn't happy, 25 mintes fom EMA to find out the flight had been delayed, despite trying numerous options he couldn't get back in time for tonights meeting.

Why? And what would you call Lambert not turning up for work? Just happens to make less traveling for him by now going straight to Sweden..... At least Mountain will give it his all on a track he knows and does well at..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g13webb Posted May 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 Checking the Polish match results from Sunday 6th May, 22 riders competed there and were planned to race in the UK on Monday. Of them 22 ,only Lambert failed too arrive. His plane may have been delayed/cancelled , but cutting his timing that tight, one has to question his priorities . Why is it the Lynn Stars are always the ones to suffer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is it the Lynn Stars are always the ones to suffer... From what has been said, I'm assuming he was taking the Riga flight to East Midlands Do you really think that getting a flight that is due to arrive in East Midlands at 13:25 for an evening meeting at Leicester is cutting it tight? He could have had a several hour delay amd still made it fine. It's just unfortunate that the flight had a huge delay. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrss Posted May 7, 2018 Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 Can't see R Lambert missing tonight on purpose as he rides Leicester well so has missed out on a good payday. But I did hear from a reliable source he won't be at Poole on Wednesday night for the Premiership Riders Championship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g13webb Posted May 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 I'm not saying he missed it on purpose, What I'm saying he should have made earlier arrangement so when problems occur he has a contingency plan to fall back on. Leaving it till the last minute is always racked with danger. As for the Poole meeting, nothing will surprise me..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the meeting itself the Stars are doing ok, just two down at the interval. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bagpuss Posted May 7, 2018 Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 That's certainly something to bowl at, all credit to the team. Perhaps predictable that heats 13 & 15 would be tough with no Robert but a six point loss is turnoverable. Not bad at all. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axeman Posted May 7, 2018 Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 I just hope some of you never end up doing jury service when you are told the truth/facts you still judge whatever you want, I think arriving at an away track 41/2 hrs before a meeting is more than enough time, not even sure the gate at Leicester would have been open anyway. Never mind it will only be someone else fault when its your flight delayed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to see Kasper slowly picking up the points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
