Lambert is totally off form in the lower league, he even offered to step down from the side. What good is he going to be against the top flights top team😃 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if/when he gets the ban, it will be to late for him to sign for anyone else in the UK this season. Lets bloody hope so 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PersonalResponsibility Posted July 14 Report Share Posted July 14 If it's too much trouble for him then just do him a favour and ban him from the UK for the rest of the season. I assume his Visa will be fine without an employer or sponsor in the UK? It's a terrible indictment of how far we've fallen that a bang average 27yo, riding in the Polish 2nd division, can mess around one of our top flight clubs like this. Laguta was bad enough. Ben Cook? Dear me. Makes you wonder how much Leszno are paying him to allow him to ditch Britain at the first sign of a bit of success. Too much it would appear. He was happy enough committing to Britain while he was a decent Championship rider. You can make the argument that this seems to happen a lot to Kings Lynn, but in their defence, what can you do when riders behave like this? 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batch and Holder esq. These riders are taking the pi$$. He signed the contract, and was the one getting paid by the club. The buck stops with him imho.

I have no problem asking Lyon,an old friend of mine🙂👍 To be fair, KL did the trick for the KOC-Up match and got Kildemand, leaving Ipswich with the Lambert option - and Lambert beat Kildemand 😃 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeneralMelchett Posted July 14 Report Share Posted July 14 14 hours ago, Daniel Smith said: When are the King's Lynn fans really going to question this club?? We cannot keep blaming Poland. Baggy has said Cook is fully committed to British Speedway. Yes, until he came to King's Lynn. Musielak - never let British Speedway down, yep, until he came to King's Lynn. In 2023 - Pickering did the same, never let anyone down until he came here. Laguta & Tarasenko too, couldn't wait to get out. Year after year after year somebody can't be a$$ed to come back. Which other Premiership teams suffers with this every single season?? The most common denominator is this club, not Poland. I feel there is something in this for the last few years everytime KL start to get a bit of momentum something happens and they take a step back again - often from wehre I am it seems a self inflicted a lot of the time! Interesting that Tobias despite riding for the bottom club this season appears to be giving it his full focus etc, Pickering the same at Sheffield etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurtz injured, rides for Rybnik last year and Wroclaw this year but not BV. Pickering injured the other week, didn't ride for Sheffield. Rode for Leszno. J Holder took a day off sick from Sheffield but never has for Lublin. Tungate has missed UK meetings and ridden in Poland. Missed flights etc. Doyle rode for Częstochowa before returning for Ipswich. No one else been 'injured' other than Blodorn who has missed meetings for all teams and SEC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t agree with all of what you say A rider has to make a comeback somewhere and I don’t care if that’s his polish swedish or English club it’s irrelevant What is wrong is when they comeback for their polish club…. Miss the uk matches but ride again in Poland 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone on here defends their own teams riders or favourite riders instead of looking at the bigger picture. The truth with Laguta, Tarasenko, Cook and Musielak etc is they joined KL and then realised they didn't have the bollox to ride that track every week so wanted out at the first opportunity. It's definitely not for everyone with the shape and the grip from the clay surface etc.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely not for everyone with the shape and the grip from the clay surface etc.... Laguta would’ve spoke to Woffinden, Bewley and Janowski about the KL track prior to signing…so that can’t be used as an excuse. Plus he actually attended for most of the home meetings, it was just the away ones he ditched Tarasenko would’ve spoke with uncle Laguta prior to signing, rode it in 2023 (scoring 8+1), and obviously Rob was Pboro team manager in 23 and KL manager in 24, so would’ve known all about the track Cook has done enough laps around King’s Lynn (as an Ace and as a Panther), as well as guesting numerous times in 24. Always seemed to go well round it Musielak it’s probably his best track in the UK, especially as an away rider. It’s definitely not the surface that is the issue, it’s either the riders riding it, or the Club/promotion in general. I’ll stick by Lynn through thick and thin, but the common denominator here is that the Club/promotion is the issue - and the lack of transparency around why riders leave has to be questioned, if not by fans then Phil Morris 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
