TMW 533 Posted June 3, 2013 Seems some confusion.Robert is stating he is only helping out with a few meetings,not signing for the season To him it maybe just a few meetings but I think there is a rule that if you do so many meetings, I think it was 6 (not sure how many) you have to be signed.

Well seeing as he hasn't signed then it must be less than the required number.So,as he say's 'just helping' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TMW 533 Posted June 3, 2013 (edited) Already done,so wouldn't worry about it and the rules I'm not worried but someone clearly is or on a wind up whichever when it comes to speedway I tend to wait to see what comes to pass. :-) Edited June 3, 2013 by TMW Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waco 1,026 Posted June 4, 2013 About time someone at KINGS LYNN gave us the full facts on the situation if what Iris says is right ,that does not seem fair on a rider who may be shunted in and out of the team, to accomodate that situation Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,839 Posted June 4, 2013 (edited) Seems to me from reading his Facebook that the boy has agreed to ride in one or two meetings but in their eagerness to get bums on seats tomorrow night the club have buggered up the press release, peeing the Lamberts off in the process and probably jeopardising any future relationship between King's Lynn speedway and Robert Lambert. With the future of British Speedway as uncertain as it has ever been you can't blame Lambert for not rushing in and committing to one club, he has only just turned 15 and has time very much on his side. Not too concerned whether he ends up with the Stars in the future or not, just hope he rides in the right place to fulfill his potential and hopefully perform in the GP's one day like Woffinden is currently. I'm just happy to get the opportunity to see him racing competitively in the UK tomorrow night. Edited June 4, 2013 by Bagpuss Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Parsloes 1928 nearly 495 Posted June 4, 2013 The lad's only 15 years of age so I'd imagine he can't really 'sign' for anyone... He can RIDE for a club though and I understand he'll be riding in the NL when he can for the KLYS. It may well suit Dale to have Robert when he can, not exceed the 4 matches and then he'd be able to ride still as a three-pointer in the Play-offs. I'd suggest if that happens KL would literally walk the play offs and win the championship. Only possible flaw in that as a concept would be possibly not qualifying for the P/Os but I'd think the KLYS side strong enough to do that anyhow. Robert could ride in the KOC too without those matches counting towards the four qualifying for an average. Simples! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hope people turn out tonite to see him anyway KL deserve a good crowd Yes I think so - 'declared' is the correct expression. IMHO at reserve (especially when 15 & 16 year olds) there should be more flexibility and not need to be 'declared' riders... Not sure why that change was made - just seems to restrict options for TMs and for (young) riders alike. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
