flagrag 703 Posted December 7, 2017 I have a feeling that a former Witch and good friend of Danny King will be one of the last two signings for Leicester. It all depends on the next signing on which route the promotion take. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teromaafan 573 Posted December 7, 2017 Completely agree. Maybe a punt on someone like Robert Lambert as 2nd heat leader? Rides Beaumont Park well. The thought of Robert Lambert in Lions colours excites me. Although he seemed to stagnate a bit last season, I still think he is likely to be the next big thing in British speedway. Always seems to do okay around BP and is a real racer who's efforts would go down a storm with the Lions fans. If we could get him I would almost be prepared to take his namesake (poor Simon) if that meant staying within the 42.50 total! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It all depends on the next signing on which route the promotion take. Is this a hint towards Scott Nicholls? Wouldn't mind that at all! That was my first thought, but it will only fit if Pieszckek is given an average under 7, so if Pieszckek is a 7 as most people seem to think he will be, added to Nicholls 7.48 it comes to 40.52, only leaving 1.98 for the last rider. I'm pretty sure the minimum for the last reserve is 2.00 so wouldn't fit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leicester Lion 274 Posted December 8, 2017 Simon Lambert 2.32, riders Leicester not bad either The ultimate journeyman. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beckettlion 195 Posted December 8, 2017 Would sooner see us invest in a young british rider than Simon Lambert.. Georgie Wood would presumably come in on a 2.00 average? Was impressive at reserve for Sheffield in the relegation play off 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flagrag 703 Posted December 8, 2017 The hint I gave was not actually about Scotty but someone that may be at the bottom end of the team. As I said it all depends if they go as I think they should for another heat leader and then this rider will likely be in at Leicester. If not they may go for two 5-5.7 point riders Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big Al 708 Posted December 9, 2017 Simon Lambert has to miss a large chunk of each season injured. Not easy finding replacements for someone with such a low average Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
