Good call. Colin's been about along time and knows the ropes. Didn't realise he was up for the job though . Only hope Buster and him get along without confrontation .
They're mates apparently

His gating was fine till he hurt his wrist which appeared to be his left,clutch, wrist so don't get where you're coming from,like everyone else on here knock the best talent for 10years and wonder why they turn their back on British speedway. If you want a substitute team manager Colin Pratt apparently lives close by and attends regularly ask him to help out.
Told you so

he needs to gate better and looking at him ride he needs much faster equipment! Yes he's best under 21 Brit by a mile but like you yet to be convinced he's got what it takes to become
World class

If the track last night had been prepared properly it would have been a comfortable win for Lynn, unfortunately the track put doubt in too many minds, then with all the off track problems total confusion.The Poole management obviously saw this and probably said carry on, get on with it get to heat 12 and we can call it as the Lynn riders don't want it,we could get a point,however they probably couldn't believe their luck as Lynn went into melt down with riders and management arguing and imploding, so all they basically had to do was get to the tapes and the meeting was won,good for Poole, bad for Lynn and an absolute disaster for speedway, no amount of talking or writing will put this one to bed.

I was fortunate enough to be able to watch the official final day practice at belle vue in 2016 and I observed all the teams and managers in action the poles were very professional and went about there business sharing information and talking a lot to each other and marek cieslak had a stop watch and timed all his riders while they were on track,but interestingly, he also timed all the other riders in the other teams I did not see this level of professionalism in any of the other teams including team gb

A significant quote from Patryck Dudek: On the Friday, we stayed in the hotel with the whole team and we all were talking all the time. The atmosphere was perfect this year in Leszno. Everything was good, very organised and we spent time with the boys. We got a good result the gold medal.[/quote

Lambert is now at an age where he can be influenced easily one way or another.
It's not a case of not supporting him or wanting him to be average.
Seeing the massive potential he had at 15-16 to now he hasn't moved on enough, I'd say he's stagnated and the potential he'd once shown is now just looking like any other rider.
He no longer stands out from the rest.
So as far as you,re concerned, a rider who at 15 was more or less unbeatable in the national league,who at the age of 16 went straight into the elite league, proper, not as a cheating reserve,has progressed to a heat leader and often is the only rider at kings Lynn to excite the crowd, has ridden in two world cup teams, got a bronze medal in the world under 21, current British under 21 champion,finished 3rd in 2016 British final, has emerged from a rider relying on the bank of mum and dad to be a self financing independent adult all at the tender age of 19 according to you is stagnating. I think you need a reality check. He is probably the one rider at King's Lynn that actually gets people through the gate and not your so called better more experienced riders.

Have a look at the standard in Denmark he's ridden against average premier league standard with a decent heat leader thrown in still not convinced purely on Denmark figures small tracks not big fast ones like lynn where you need to be on it to do well

Better to be boring and score 9 points than exciting and score sweet f a

Bachelor's looking just like Adam shields did before he retired he is either having trouble holding onto the bars or has lost it but he can be replaced the problem for me is huckenbecks complete loss of form from the start of the season and mads does what made does can be fixed but will it ?

Might just be exam time no kids = no parents and weather hasn't helped

That is one of the things I've suggested recently, the tracks with shorter straights and longer bends tend to provide the better racing nowadays, tracks with longer straights tend not to. Makes you wonder if taking the white line in all the way round at Lynn to make it more circular might be the way forward.
unfortunately as it is now concrete on the track centre the cost would be prohibitive a sad fact is the shape is here to stay whereas if it was grass it would not be difficult to reshape the bends and shorten the straights aka ipswich

I think everyone should stop banging on about how poor the racing and track is at lynn and use their brains and work out for themselves what the problem in general is, the engines have developed too fast for the tracks but the speed they mostly attain is straight line speed so long straights create bigger gaps between riders the new silencers have seriously affected outside line speed as the grippier shale sucks the horsepower out of the engine this leads to all top riders making sure they stick to the inside line for the first few races then move out as the inside becomes slicker and you always get a bit better racing at the end of a meeting as the temperature drops and the engines delop more horsepower and grunt and can then produce more racing lines simples

If you lot stop and think for a minute if the four falls had resulted in
their expected scores we would have got ten more points from four seconds
one a joker we would have lost by three points and everone would say how
unlucky we were we have to learn from this and move on you cant afford falls
and zeros in this standard give the youngsters a chance to gain the experience
necessary be consistant from management and things can only get better

So can you enlighten us, that don't attend after the meeting, the reasoning for the grippy tracks and why the large numbers of visiting riders continually fail to come to terms with it ?
