Laguta is a waste of money.

Buster playing a dangerous game by keeping him when you can get a bigger points return by booking Bomber to guest.

I wouldn't say waste of money, I would say expensive luxury which can't be afforded when money is stretched and a bigger points return could be generated by having 2 riders instead of one.

He's a very different rider in the UK compared to Poland. Here if he doesn't hit the start he doesn't want to know, but in Poland he will ride every inch of the track for 4 laps.

That's why I think he's a waste of money, Not willing to put the effort in for the management, team mates and fans.

Yeah but if you look at the current 1-7 you could argue they're all a waste of money bar Lambert and what Klindt shows up...?

Maybe I dreamt it but I'm pretty sure I've seen him pass people at Lynn and BV this season.

BV potentially, but i don't think so at Lynn. He does a big swoop Lap 1 Bend 2 at generating a lot of speed down the back straight, but I don't class that as passing. Some may disagree however

Stays fit and he guarantees himself an Ekstraliga medal at the end of the year, if you think he’s gonna go for a do or die move riding for a team in disarray towards the bottom of the league you’ll be in for a shock. That’s the sad reality of it.

But they do try throughout the evening even if they're struggling to score points.

Artem is coming across as a very ignorant person imo, Posting that video after playing the food poising card, lack of respect for the club and it's fans by putting in the same effort as you'd get from Kasprzak.

Got to give it your all because management and fans are pouring their hard earned money into the club.

Not to mention a number of riders doing practice starts on the parade without their helmets on!

That's what i like to see,a throwback to the old days where fans could familiarise who's who really.Would like to see more of this.

But as soon as one rider has a crash without a helmet on, look at the insurance rates double!

Blimey! That really is scraping the barrel of complaints!

Not a complaint, more an observation. Its a fairly quick win which makes the stadium and ultimately club look a bit more professional on national telly.

Sadly more professional is not something that goes hand in hand with British Speedway since the 1980s and 90s .

Without being privy to the facts, it appears Laguta was signed under circumstances that aren’t the case at Kings Lynn anymore. I’d be annoyed in his position.

While as fans it can be frustrating if riders appear to be “dialling it in” we also have to remember they are people too.
