Might Riss then be available? Lets hope so,but it would be unfair on Lawson.Although i'm sure another team would drop a rider to fit him in.

castrolargh Posted March 20, 2021 Report Share Posted March 20, 2021 Robert Lambert,Erik Riss and MPT replaced by Ryan Kinsley,Bridger and possibly Lawson. Makes you realise how much the league has had to be watered down.I still think that if such a watering down of the league was necessary, it should have been 1 league and 6 man teams to at least try to maintain interest/ sell the concept of a new start . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not enough riders... You only have enough now due to the majority riding for two teams.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lynnboy Posted March 21, 2021 Report Share Posted March 21, 2021 The only way we will get Riss back is if his German team pull out of the polish league but I doubt that will happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So is there hope of getting Riss?Is that a possibility why they haven't named Lawson yet?And if Riss does come back can we have Lawson as the rising star. If Lynn wanted to be ruthless and Riss did come back you could replace any of the top 5 with Lawson.The team would look a lot better to say have Lawson in for Proctor.

The only stumbling block I can see is international travel from the UK is banned at the moment and with the virus on the rise again in Europe that’s Is looking as if that could stay in place longer . Things of course could change . Lawson is the obvious choice and he will be available each meeting as Riss could have major travel problems and not be available each meeting and in all honesty I’d thought a Brit should be employed first . 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Brit would be employed first if they got rid of Proctor Unsure on the travel restrictions but thought sportsmen could travel with tests etc.If they can't then that would be a blow to all clubs as many have riders riding elsewhere in Europe too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tellboy Posted March 25, 2021 Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 Final announcement in the morning.Lynn tweeted we think you'll like this one with a smiley.Surely it can't be Lawson tweeting that. I'm sticking my neck out for Riss now,after all didn't the manager of his German/Polish team say they won't be starting the league when they want them too due to the pandemic. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrss Posted March 25, 2021 Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 Even if it’s Riss or Lawson , I think the Stars are one heat leader short of a good team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
