I knew you wore high heels, certainly won't discriminate, each to their own and all that -

Is it possible Ayers is the full time replacement for Lambert? -

Daniel Smith replied to ReadingRacer2017's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Anyway, back to the topic of this thread please. Are ZagarRacing and ReadingRacer the same person -
Yes & no, if Doyle was injured your team would look like this 1. Batchelor 7.76 2. Wajiknecht 4.08 3. Ellis 6.76 4. Jensen 4.51 5. Musielak 6.41 6. Perks 3.00 7. Guest 3.00 The team just gets moved around and any guests come in at reserve. I don't think it's right that straight swap guests should be used, I'm a firm believer that a result should be determined by the teams own rider's rather than a track specialist guest that actually performs better than the replaced rider. It gives the opportunity for other riders in the team to step up. Also gives another opportunity to an up and coming rider to make an impression. Especially at home that team should have enough to not get beaten if they ride to their potential.
-
Guests are a necessary evil. I've always said though that guest riders for Premiership should always be Championship riders with an average of 4.50 or less. Then that rider takes the No7 position and the others move up a position. R/R should only be available after a 3rd rider in the team is missing.

King’s Lynn v Wolves 3/6/19
Daniel Smith replied to Bagpuss's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Although Proctor and Jorgensen haven't hit the road running, wouldn't it be a risk to bin fit rider's for an injured rider?!? Both can only get better and there was an improvement in both at home, points wise. Looking at the figures, it looks like we'll see June out and depending on form Riss could come back in for Kerr and be under 42.50 from July 1st. -
Slovenian GP 01/06
Daniel Smith replied to Col's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Lambert has shown in 2 GP's he's better equipped for the series than Harris had over his whole GP career -
Probably be nobody has backed down, Cook will probably ride in his Glasgow suit with a Stars race jacket.
-
Of course it isn't official yet but looks certain to happen. Cook saying he's had a phone call and the club saying a new signing after Monday is pretty much a done deal.
-
So how I see it. Proctor and Andersen out. We'd have to go back to 42.50 team average as it'll be 2 changes as like for like isn't permitted with 2 or more changes at once. 10.39 available for changes. In comes Cook on 7.00 and Drew Kemp on 3.19. That way it'll really pee off both Peterborough and Ipswich

Peterborough Panthers 2019
Daniel Smith replied to Flappy's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
He's definitely Buster's type of rider, especially for King's Lynn. He's cheap and he's s#!te. Perfect match -
Wow, find any excuses possible. It was Riss's 5th ride of the night when he crashed, made no difference what so ever. At most he'd of had 1 other ride to which had he won we'd of still lost the meeting being 12 points up. Trees, admit it, we're rubbish
-
We're are poor poor side. Was always going to be. With Kerr and Andersen replacing Iversen and S.Lambert we were always in trouble. Simon wasn't great away but he certainly could score points at home. Not only is there poor racing at the AFA, we're struggling to get wins. With Nicholls and Bates joining the Panthers Buster has put his main club firm favourites for the wooden spoon.

What a team this King's Lynn side is. Can throw away a 10 point lead with 5 heats left -
Belle Vue v King’s Lynn 16/05/19
Daniel Smith replied to Bagpuss's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Buster listening to others He is the saviour you know, the god of Speedway, the only one who knows the way beyond all others Although I'm a Stars fan, he has single handedly killed my love of racing at the AFA. I'll no longer allow any of my pennies to finance his pocket. He produces the most boring racing, boring atmosphere, the most lengthy tractor racing of any other tracks in the country. -
I think it's fair to say, King's Lynn need a new track curator. Having read the Peterborough thread and how Buster has turn that track into a 1 line gathers paradise since he's took over, I think it's fair to conclude what the problem is. It isn't so much the "stockcar friendly shale" as mentioned before. Thankfully for Ipswich fans, Buster hasn't got his hands on your track, YET.

Belle Vue v King’s Lynn 16/05/19
Daniel Smith replied to Bagpuss's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
And they finished the meeting with their own set-ups and it still didn't work. Facts need to be face, we're a s#!+ side, end of -
This team isn't good enough. Anyone willing to wake up to that fact yet or not or is it a continuing of burying the head in the sand?? This team is delivering to expectations, OK at home and likely to lose some. Away are an absolute abysmal joke.

Wolves v kings Lynn Premiership 13/5
Daniel Smith replied to stevebrum's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Depends on his pay structure for 2019. He's more popular and sort after with each season and a certain No1 in the UK right now. If his points wage demand is up by a 3rd he can earn almost the same as last year on a just over 7 average. Thus meaning, use last year's equipment and he'll end 2019 with a bigger profit margin than 2018. It's just standard business. -
Wolves v kings Lynn Premiership 13/5
Daniel Smith replied to stevebrum's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Again, never said his equipment is substandard as such, just the same as last year as it went so well. He's saved money by cutting investment in UK Speedway. Why wouldn't or shouldn't he? To be a No1 in the UK you don't require anywhere near the investment you need for the likes of Poland, Sweden and the SGP's. People are extremely delusional if you think top rider's spend big bucks in the UK. -
Wolves v kings Lynn Premiership 13/5
Daniel Smith replied to stevebrum's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Robert Lambert is a business. He has to speculate to accumulate. He has to have a financial agenda for this and future seasons. He spending priority has an order and I could guarantee UK Speedway is bottom. 1. Ekstraliga 2. SGP / SON / Euro Championship 3. Elitserien 4. British Speedway I have no doubt at all his UK equipment has taken a back seat with his eyes firmly on the prize of being able to drop UK totally like Woffinden. -
Wolves v kings Lynn Premiership 13/5
Daniel Smith replied to stevebrum's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Where have I said Lambert is giving no effort I just believe he's using old equipment IN the Premiership and I wouldn't blame him. Riding Ekstraliga, Elitserien and the expense in being prepared for the SGP, I find it a little delusional that he'd have his best gear in England. Robert Lambert is riding on the cheap in the UK, I have no doubt about it. Doesn't mean though he's making no effort in his races, nobody has even suggested it at all. -
Wolves v kings Lynn Premiership 13/5
Daniel Smith replied to stevebrum's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
The thing is, I think Lambert is riding equipment 'on the cheap' in the Premiership. What we watched in the SON and his scoring in the Premiership just doesn't add up. We'll see this weekend if he's on the pace with Woffinden and Zmarzlik in the GP, if so, King's Lynn surely have to ask questions. -
There were 1 or 2 good races but not at all to usual Belle Vue standards. The whole thing felt as flat as a pancake on the TV. Lost total concentration and just had it on in the background from about heat 15.
