Speedway remains the UK's Best Kept Secret. Mostly because the BSPA believes that if it is on Facebook and Twitter, millions will know about it and many thousands will come. Such a delightful dream. Most individual match organisers / club owners seem to agree with that and other marketing efforts remain very diluted or nonexistent.

Steve Shovlar Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 With Lambert wanting to leave Kings Lynn during last winter, and not being allowed to, he is probably right for the picking at the end of the season. Just the type of rider who would look good in the skull and crossbones of Poole. Would compliment Brady at the top end. Matt should be making enquiries.

I looked in 5 Daily newspapers and didn't see one word about our British Championship. And when you see some of the rubbish you read in these publications you realise how poor our Promoters really are....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is on social media Webby and anything on social media will be sure to collect a crowd. I mean more than 100,000,000 follow Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber. Perhaps the result came out too late for the typesetters who laboriously prepare the next day's paper ( or do they do it from smartphone nowadays?). It could be in tomorrow!

The idea is to promote the sport to the public and while newspaper are about surely that would be the way to go.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreverblue Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 Poole should clean up at reserve Simon Lambert is ok at Kings Lynn sometimes but isn't really good enough at this level, he shouldn't really trouble the scorers and whoever is the other reserve won't be the level of MPT. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily one of Lambert's best ones is local to King's Lynn, so who knows he might stay on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lambert’s triumph came just 48 hours after he helped Great Britain to a silver medal behind Russia in the Speedway of Nations event. Pirates promoter Matt Ford said: "It's wonderful when a new star of the sport comes along and Robert being British makes it even sweeter. "He has proved he can mix it with the very best in the sport and while his on-track ability is clear for all to see, I’m extremely impressed with his attitude off track, where I feel he’s handled himself with dignity over the past week. Let's hope Robert continues to ply his trade in the UK for many years to come." http://www.poolepirates.co/news/2018-06-11_tough-finals-night-for-richie.html Edited June 12, 2018 by daz9100 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Scrutton Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 Newspapers "Go to bed" so early that it is probable that they were printed long before the British Final started But they wouldn't have put it in anyway as they are only interested in Football tt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abysmal way of running the club personally. With regards to the future promise, isn't that what was given before yet Danish clubs (rightly so) are still picking their rider's. Personally, apart from Iversen the other Danes are replaceable and should be so and then we would be able to move on with a tight knitted team.
