LagutaRacingFan 1,936 Posted July 14, 2013 Did see that he was beaten by both Doyle and Batch today, he did beat Watt but so did everybody, not to say he will not become a good reserve. He's 18 and it was his first meeting in a world cup, The nerves got the better of him but still did very well. Where were Doyle,Batchelor and Watt when they were 18.

Crump99 4,476 Posted July 14, 2013 Get Lebdev some equipment and he will score 15+ from reserve position. Watch him in the SWC on Saturday... He's better than Doyle,Watt and Batchelor. Isn't their equipment the tools of the job? Standard practice for the individual to make sure that their equipment is up to the job isn't it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, I spoke to Thomas H Jonasson last year and he is a firm believer that the clubs should always provide equipment to the riders. You wouldn't go work in a takeaway and expect their to be no electricity. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Where were Doyle,Batchelor and Watt when they were 18. Bit of a silly statement you made then, like the majority of your posts, you said watch him he is better than Doyle,Batch and Watt when he clearly is not. He may be later in his career as you say he is only 18 and I will watch how he gets on. Edited July 14, 2013 by A ORLOV 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelvinht 354 Posted July 14, 2013 I saw in yesterday's EDP that Rob Lyon is now Co Promotor at Kings Lynn. Is JC still involved as not seen him around the place lately ? wondered the same myself.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
speedy17 226 Posted July 14, 2013 He is but not as much now a days. Rob will also have become co-promoter to ruffle a few feathers on the BSPA and try and go forward with the sport in this country. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
semion 2,192 Posted July 15, 2013 Its sad if JC has disappeared. He was very good on the PR side of the sport. His ideas gave the Sport at Lynn a big shot in the arm when it was most needed. Ok, He wasnt everyone's cup of tea, but I thought he brought a great deal to the party. Also I understand he is longer involved with the Football Club that the family owns in the Town.

Daniel Smith 5,666 Posted July 15, 2013 (edited) I'm under the impression JC is extremely busy with his own business venture but is doing bits & pieces in the background still. He's still registered as a co-promoter. He does have an account on this forum and does read so he may reply regarding his position at some point.

stevebrum 6,824 Posted July 16, 2013 Can we sign Ljung? Id say every club is trying to do so right now! I just hope Wolves come out on top. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LagutaRacingFan 1,936 Posted July 16, 2013 (edited) Sums up what's wrong with British speedway, An average rider like Ljung can now demand silly money due to tons of injuries. Matt Ford's squad system would have solved this issue. Edited July 16, 2013 by THJ Racing Fans Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Star Fever 274 Posted July 16, 2013 Can we sign Ljung? Yes please ....or MJJ.....or Bogdanovs....or Dudek ... or anyone that could be the heat leader that Rory isnt :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LagutaRacingFan 1,936 Posted July 16, 2013 Yes please ....or MJJ.....or Bogdanovs....or Dudek ... or anyone that could be the heat leader that Rory isnt :/ You bought him for 15k, Might as well stay loyal as he is your asset. He will be on a low average for next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
