He has effectively been seeded through when others have been denied the same in the past. Lambert??? did he once break-down coming back from Newcastle for the Semi- Final ???

Disgraceful taking a place of a British rider. what if he wins it? Gets the cardiff British wild card? Utterly wrong. Never thought I would see the day I agreed with you but this time I do on all counts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DSC67 Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 There's an article in this weeks SS about Andy Smith riding on a Polish license and competing in the Polish Final . . People may not like the fact Rory's in the final but it's happening and there's not much we can do about it apart from grumble on here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aces51 Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 Barry Briggs, who was of course a New Zealander, was the first ever British Champion in 1961. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedway28 Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 Really looking forward to this tomorrow, could make a case for nearly half of the field having a chance of winning. Pleased to see Stevie Worrall has recovered from his injury so quickly but it's ridiculous that he's been put in the meeting. Makes a complete mockery of qualification. A predication for the final result is 1. Lambert 2. Schlein 3. Cook 4. Bewley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orion Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 Can't see Woffy getting beat he's a class above these 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krompa Posted June 11, 2018 Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 Stevie is going to ride without any single meeting after injury? Brave boy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col Posted June 11, 2018 Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 I hope Lambert wins, or if Cook wins Lambert gets the Cardiff Wildcard, he deserves it after his efforts in the SON. Also hope Bewley gets one of the reserve spots at Cardiff, it would be a good experience for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grachan Posted June 11, 2018 Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 Do they have to make the winner of this meeting the GP wildcard? They don't do it every year. Can they just go with Lambert anyway, even if he doesn't win? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baba Posted June 11, 2018 Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 would love Lawson to win tonight. i think if there is a dark horse it could be Auty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He found a loophole in the rules, good for him but he isn't a Brit by any stretch of the imagination and should not be riding in the British Final. Wiggy, I thought he took out a Dutch licence to "help" his long track/grass track career on the continent? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ouch Posted June 11, 2018 Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 It’s a strange anonmoly that the ones who want to see Tai ride and complain about his absence are Tai haters and the ones happy for him to stay away, love him? Anyway I’m looking forward to the mother in law coming over later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamond@heart Posted June 11, 2018 Report Share Posted June 11, 2018 Can you buy tickets at the event or do you have to get them online before hand. I remember buying them on the day last year, just wondered if it is the same this year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
