For all you know he could have agreed to just ride in the three Play Off meetings and nothing else, your ire should really be towards the two clubs who quite clearly knew he wasn't going to be there tonight yet kept quiet.

Lambert is probably just as injured as Klindt and Pickering are ill.

Jakobsen signs for 2023 on a 5.04

Terrible treatment of fans once again, Buster probably told Belle Vue not to announce the non appearance of Robert Lambert. It is this sort of thing that drives fans away.

Utter disgrace - total bullrubbishe piss take out of the fans Whatever excuses are spouted there is no doubt this was pre meditated When it looks fishy and smells fishy its generally a fish!!

Robert Lambert injured allegedly!

Yeah you’re right we only hijack half the threads though. We still have work to do until we reach your level.

The trouble with speedway is,,, there are still enough fans at some clubs that are happy to be treated like rubbish,, and will gladly turn up every week to be treated that way. Most will even say thank you

Different opinions not disagreeing meant to be what you do on a forum. Then we have you the clown of all clowns with incoherent rambling. Just my opinion of course saddo.

Robbing barstewards. I hope there are some folk who demand their money back.

Why is R Lambert missing tonight if he doesnt have a valid reason then surely it is a 28 day ban starting whenever he chooses to ride next season, so no late comeback for the play offs next year

Wednesdays forecast looks better than it was with a few showers around lunchtime then a dry afternoon and evening. Saturday looks to be a dry day. I think both meetings will take place on their chosen days. Hopefully on tracks in conditions to produce good, fair racing.

I've ben told that Subbuteo Table Speedway was staged there in the 1950's. There was four local teams, Panthers, Lions, Gorillas & Crocodiles. Hope this helps.

According to Willhelmpedia there was a young Austrian in the 1930's called Aldi Hilter who took on a German licence. He had an accident where he lost a testicle and this curtailed his European activity. He's not been heard of much since his Farewell appearance in Berlin in the mid forties. There are rumours he was spotted in Argentina / Brazil, but his moustache trademark might have gone by then. Hope this helps.

Extremely well put sir....take a bow..

Jakobsen is a fantastic start to 2023 team building.

Go and have a lie down. You won’t make any attempt to understand some of the problems this Sheffield promotion have faced so I’m not going to waste my time engaging you in debate. There’s far bigger problems in speedway which need resolving over your personal vendettas.

Which is completely the fault of Lynn and Belle Vue! Nothing to do with the rider, all indications from various social media posts suggest he was only ever going to appear in the Play Offs. You've obviously come onto this thread with an existing dislike for Lambert, which is your right, but you are pointing fingers in the wrong direction here.

If that’s your points of comparison, Belle Vue is exactly like Sheffield - a multi use stadium not owned by the club. That’s not what it was supposed to be but, after the previous owning company went spectacularly bankrupt with debts approaching 7 figures, any chance of BV being anything other than tenants was lost

Injury has been cited as the reason Lambert cannot ride. 1) When did injury occur. 2) At what time was it decided he couldn't race. 3) Was a medical certificate produced. All questions that will never be answered honestly and just whitewashed over.

Don't worry Trees will appear here soon to defend another bullrubbish piss taking evening in British speedway

Hang your head in shame lemon and belle vue, total piss take league title bought and paid for! One comet who wont be back their next season.

This just shows the complete lack of contempt the promoters have for fans you know the actual people who without us there would be no speedway. False advertising by both teams knowing full well Lambert wouldn't be there everyone in the stadium should just ask for a refund and go home disgusting off everyone involved.

If the promotion knew this today and didn’t make this common knowledge I hope those who’s paid to get in make there feelings known

Does seem pretty certain that Robert won’t be there, pit of a pisstake from both promotions if nothing is announced

Starke has “broken down” en route, Lee Complin guests.

Yep. The track should be fine. I even got out to cut the grass this afternoon.

Not at all it’s only banter. Seems like Jenga has took a shine too you. You have my condolences in advance.

I suppose it depends how they might look at it Tel. If the scores don't count towards the averages then the meeting shouldn't count as meetings completed, but this is speedway

You forgot the warning for Shovlar, the Ford's and Middle ditch All Car Parks have height restricted access. Not ideal for visitors with inflated egos Locally known as big heads.

Good point, be a nice touch to do all that for Poole!!

Also should include allowance for time needed for presentation of the trophy, celebrations, open-top tractor tour around the track, etc

Let’s hope this reported illness doesn’t affect the thousands of supporters intending to go to the match tonight.

When's the final then ? lol

Martin Smolinski rode for Coventry, despite the cathedral being in ruins

Don’t disagree with your view but shooting him sounds a tad harsh

Other than major wholesale changes (which will never happen) the chances of attracting those fans who have drifted away, back to the fold are next to zero. The sports controllers have brought the problems on themselves and the riders look after number one and sometimes dictate whether a meeting will go ahead. The fans are bottom of the pile when it comes to being part of any thought process in terms of it being value for money or providing entertainment so that the punters go away wanting more. Where else would you maintain a scenario of having seven man teams but rarely race with seven, more like six and Mr R/R. They cannot even complete the fixtures. You have several months to fulfil the meetings but yet again here it is October and the options for completing fixtures are getting fewer thanks to the weather or the non availability of stadia and probably the doubling up which meant some meetings could not take place earlier in the season because of rider availability. The current business model does not work and those with disposal income who have been going to meetings for many years have decided it is just not worth it and over the years the promoters have failed to make it an attractive form of entertainment for a younger generation. Get rid of the BSPL and start again on an amateur basis with a five year plan to rebuild the rider base. Some stadia will fall by the wayside but it would happen anyway with the current set up and with very few if any local authorities interested in having a track on their door step the chances of new tracks appearing is fairly low. To sum up, the BSPL would have you believe the sport is in good shape. How many fans believe that one?

That's actually exactly what's needed - weed out the poorly run, poorly supported dross that is dragging down the overall product Unfortunately the virtue signalling namby pamby bollox that we need to save evey team is spouted by those who dare not state the truth

Absolute disgrace. Again fans are ripped off. So what is Lambert's explanation for missing tonight?

See? You're never too old to learn!

So how long does a break down take to be fixed these days,,,, no team mates to share a van with,,,, me smells a rat

I thought the same, and I having been expecting that been the date set for the 2nd leg. If that is not the case and the 2nd leg is not ridden then I think that the Kings Lynn should be awarded the trophy.

Think in every country, it always starts in the first yard. Ukraine is no exception

Sorry, didn’t realise that you had to previously have posted a minimum number of posts before commenting. Is this a forum rule or just one imagined by the Weegie “we arra people” supremacists ? Anyway like the Tigers official website I’m away back to sleep.

Remember East German Gerhard Ullenbrock riding for Coventry on the recommendation of Garry Middleton. We had Klaus Lausch at Oxford who showed lots of potential before deciding that there was more money to be made in tuning!

Klindt & Pickering out due to reported illness.

I expect what BB is referring to is that Robert would have been on a considerable guarantee and was essentially brought in to help win the Play Offs which he did. So no surprise if he's not at Lynn tomorrow, but I hope he is as he's the reason I (and I suspect many others) will go or not.

Why do certain Poole fans feel the need to have a go at a new club that by all accounts has been well supported? Strange to say the least but not entirely surprising, there is barely a thread they haven't hijacked on here and turned it round to all about them.

85 overseas final and 90 World Final both had cracking racing, and 85 World Final wasn't too bad either. But for league meetings, I preferred my visits to the Shay, and neither produced racing on a consistent basis to rival Hyde rd
