Broken wrist for Cook then! :(

Interestingly he's having it strapped so he can ride for Glasgow tomorrow,  hopefully he doesn't injure it more so he can't ride for you :rolleyes:

Capitate one of carpal bones which is normally treated by immobilisation.

Wishing R.Lambert a speedy recovery from a fractured T4+T5 vertebrae.

Unsure how long he will be out with this injury but has had to pull out of the British final tonight.

Hope to see him back very soon.

Speedy recovery Robert. What a farcical line up it is now with his replacement top flight flop Josh Auty coming in. That should get them pouring through the turnstiles.

It was 6-weeks when my wife broke hers, and that was just to do normal work around the house.

Any remote chance we had of squeaking fourth has surely gone with that news. Balderdash!

Get well soon Robert. 

Who knows it might be not as bad as we think.We don't know how long he will be out for yet.After all it seemed he was contemplating riding tonight.I gather he done it in the SEC at the weekend, but he did have a couple of rides after his crash,unless he had a meeting yesterday and done it.

If he is out for any length of time how about Iversen as a replacement.

Uncalled  for Steve to be honest damn right  nasty, i have respect for every rider who has the guts  to go out on track you odviously don't feel the same.

Sorry but that’s honest STR. Where have I said I don’t respect him? I’ve never been able to achieve a fraction of what any of the guys have achieved in any of the 3 leagues so have huge respect for any rider who is able to make a go of it.

It was a glib swipe at a rider replacing the best British rider in our league that maybe has underachieved in his career but has done little in the top flight. That is pretty much true however.

But last night showed the guy still entertains Steve and that is what he is about now .If anything Steve last night showed me where we are in the Premiership it is what it is but without Woffinden( who could not be bothered to enter) the riders were close together.After heat 12 we were entertained to some great racing and Charles Wright was superb pleased for him as well.I first see Charles ride at Buxton in 2004 against the Swindon Sprockets and look how far he has come a great story and must give other riders inspiration to keep going.The race with Eddie Kennett riding ride and heat 16 with the terrific Danny Ayres scrapping it out with Auty was the highlight for me a good night overall it shows riders of similar ability can still make for a good meeting.

I think you're missing the most  important part.    I think the majority of riders in the Premiership are of similar quality,  but the difference being the tracks they are ask to race on.  It was wonderful last night to see exciting races from  many of the riders, but that can only be achieved when the track  is prepared in the proper way.    Surely this should be a wake call to the promoters of all our clubs,  but I bet it isn't.     

Congratulation to Charles Wright, a most deserved winner on the night.      Especially after the Ref made that monumental error excluding him.    Apart from that he was only beaten once all-night.

Picking up on what Woffy said about the length of time Robert needs to fully recover , I wouldn't surprise me to see him take a long lay off .   It would be pointless to rush back when he has a long time ahead of him to race.     If this is not done properly, he could be handicapped for years....      Woffy was even questioning  his readiness for the British GP at Cardiff.   So bearing in mind the amount of time Woffy has already missed plus the 2 months before the BGP,    This injury could be the last we see of Robert this year....   :(

Last night great racing on great race track- get the track right that’s what you get - sadly most BT league meetings are one big bore fest - there is absolutely no reason why Kings Lynn couldn’t produce racing like last night given the will that is to use proper shale rather than dirt.
