Please I really thought he was out the equation and it would be a good suprise signing Nah. The surprise was today in the "entertaining" Simon Lambert(as someone said earlier).

Tosh1218 Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 All what we expected and to be fair last year Lambert was a breath of fresh air and superb in and around the pits 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scunny1 Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 Lambo signing was the worst kept secret over the last 3 months. For one, I'm not bothered what he does in the pits, I want to see him performing better on the track, especially away from home. Jake is nailed on to return, so the last two team spots need to be remarkably good and I don't consider Aarnio as being one of them. If he is ,we will be at the wrong end of the table in 2022. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

szkocjasid Posted December 9, 2021 Report Share Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) I'm pleased Lambert has got a team spot, can't understand the negativity from some about his signing. You know what you'll get from Lambert 6-8 points at home, 3-5 points away, not bad at all for a second string.

Lewis Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 For a team to be successful you need improvers but that doesn't mean all of them have to improve, so that is the only way I can justify to myself the signing of Lambo & from what the popular speak is Aarnio, those 2 will probably stay the same average or thereabouts, the improvement has to come from Palin, Zaine & Kingsley. Allen & Douglas could go either way, if they improve then the team will do well, if they don't then it won't be pretty. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They absolutely do not risk there lives for our entertainment!! As for being negative why is it negative to expect a half decent side to be made up? I appreciate there's budgets to adhere to but if you charging £17 for 15minutes of entertainment at least try to provide some and put together a competitive side 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just really great full we have speedway and it’s always great entertainment. It’s better to have a team that want to be there then individuals who expect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Non of those riders risked their lives or bodies just for our entertainment. They did so because they wanted to, to earn from it and because they enjoyed it. Spectator viewing is just a bye product of that. Dragging good speedway names who have met with harsh misfortune to score a few points off another is nothing short of shameful. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
