John Scrutton Posted August 7, 2020 Report Share Posted August 7, 2020 (edited) Think Robert is named 'Ruthless' certainly not Rambo as stated. with Lynn signing another 16 yr old let hope he goes to the top just like Robert has. But the Star will get that wrong also as they are not interested in the POOR RELATIONS. Edited August 7, 2020 by John Scrutton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rusky Posted August 13, 2020 Report Share Posted August 13, 2020 (edited) For many of you who attend Saddlebow Road regularly you will know Merv Beckett.

Remember some very good trips we went all went on where i got to know Merv.He certainly had a good sense of humour and loved his beer.Didn't he have a large collection of beer cans at some point? Going to miss saying hello to him at the first turn at Saddlebow Road. Heartfelt sympathies to his family at this time. R.I.P Merv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rusky Posted August 14, 2020 Report Share Posted August 14, 2020 He did Tellboy. We collected them on our trips. It’s worth mentioning they were all empty by the time they got onto the shelves on his wall 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimmo Posted August 14, 2020 Report Share Posted August 14, 2020 On 8/6/2020 at 8:18 PM, Richard Weston said: Today's Speedway Star rightly gives a lot of space to Robert Lambert for his SEC win. However, the headline refers to Rambo Lambo. Surely Rambo Lambo was Simon Lambert. Yes you are right Richard, and I think Mike Bennett was the first to call Simon 'Rambo Lambo' in public.

S15BUT Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 (edited) Was it me or during Lamberts interview on Speedway GP last night, I get the impression we will not see him at Lynn next season?

If he wants to still race every day he has Poland, Sweden, Denmark & Germany to do that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he said he hadn’t decided and that he would have to sit down and see how his schedule worked out. Obviously want him at Lynn again next year but wouldn’t blame him at all for dropping a league which would inevitably be the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted October 13, 2020 Report Share Posted October 13, 2020 Lambert will ride again in the top league in Sweden and Poland, with a probable team change in Poland, add on SGP and I would be surprised to see him sign on again for Kings Lynn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebv Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 And SON.. And maybe go through the GP Qualifications too? I am sure he will want to give himself the maximum opportunity to stay at the 'top table' now he has deservedly put himself in and around that level.. A key year in his long term development next season, building on what has been an excellent season for him just gone.. He is now delivering the level that the 'potential' alluded to, however many have had that potential and not reached where he is now.. Maybe he will feel that not riding in the UK this year, has helped that development and will try more of the same blueprint next? Can't knock the lad if that is what he decides.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydoo Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 IF the premiership comes to the tapes in March 2021, and Lambert doesn't ride in the UK, Iversen may return to Lynn and Bjerre to Peterborough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g13webb Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 I wouldn't blame Lambert not riding over here. It just illustrates how far our position in the sport has dropped. We can no longer compete with those countries abroad, be it the tracks, the competition, nor the rewards. This is not a moan, merely a reality check.... i will look forward to seeing Robert on the telly, competing with the best and feel quietly confident he'll continue with his amazing progress. When he wins that first World title, I hope he will come back to Lynn just to show his and our appreciations. I sure the place would be packed... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More like blame the UK authorities who have mismanaged the sport over the past 30 years the result being the frail sport you see in the UK today. 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
