Bagpuss 10,781 Posted August 17, 2023 Well even though its Woffinden at the EoES I wouldn't be at all surprised if they changed their minds and want Bewley v Lambert on Monday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob B 1,257 Posted August 17, 2023 It wouldn't surprise me if Robert Lambert rides in the playoffs again, guesting for one of the 4 teams. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As he's a Prem rider, would it allow him to guest?. Surly there's a cut off point? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dont think that can happen, when Kings Lynn and Poole rode against each other in the play off final, both teams needed guests but they weren't allowed to use one rider to guest for one team then guest for the other team in the second leg.

Kings lynn could have used morris at kings lynn due to the 5pc uplift for home riders but it was decided to keep the same riders home and away to maintain integrity .Ellis had a mare for lynn and we lost 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Teromaafan 586 Posted August 18, 2023 Just read Dale Allitt's statement regarding Lambert's replacement for Laguta. So it was because Artem struggled with the smaller tracks was it? B*ll*cks! He was a recent world champion and should be experienced/well rounded enough to adapt and handle all tracks (needs to have a word with one of his fellow countrymen). Its obvious to the speedway public there there were other issues with Laguta. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Laguta is the same as a lot of the Poles who come over here, their brought up on big fast tracks that need no real skill or throttle control, just twist it wide open and hang on, him and Emil are certainly chalk and cheese. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
