    It just becomes conspiracy theory nonsense with some of them. Plus those acting in the know or claiming that things were different with Nick Morris, who led them a merry dance and was lucky not to be given a life ban. 

    I’ve waded in too lol

    They are 2 completely different scenarios but hey ho,

    Oh I’m already seeing an argument developing on a Lions FB page between me and a staunch defender. I gather that he could shoot up in front of them and be considered innocent!

    Yes, they really need to give their head a wobble.

    You are bang on with what you said.

    Schroeck wanted AB to go to Oxford at the beginning of the season but AB chose Leicester. PS was disappointed

    Maybe that was down to lots of practice sessions being available at Leicester with it being a single use facility and at that age the more time on track the better?

    I wasn't at the meeting, but just seen Ashton Boughen's performance. Crikey. That lad is rather good.

    He sure is, great gater and so fast & smooth when out in front and can pick where he rides. When he works out how to come from the back (which I’m sure he will) he will be a complete package.

    Pleased to have helped him out with a little bit of sponsorship for the Leicester Cubs this season.

    I think not having that outside line was a blessing to be honest.Usually once the dirt is out wide thats it,flat out round the boards and no other line to use.Whoever gets to the fence first is away and gone. Speaking of fences, Mr Fricke gave Nk a pretty close look at it! I would have put that move on the dirty side of hard racing.

    No different to Laguta’s move on Allen down the back straight.

    What a crazy decision to move the Sheffield match to Thursday 3rd August.

    That now means 3 matches in 6 days.

    Monday 31st vs Ipswich (Premiership)

    Thursday 3rd Vs Sheffield (Premiership)

    Saturday 5th Vs Workington (NDL KOC)

     

    £56 in 6 days for speedway

     

     

     

    Or £5 with a season ticket?

    But they did move a fixture earlier this season due to cost for fans, so why do this now?

    I get moving the 24th as the SWC starts on the 25th (for which I am personally grateful) but to rearrange it so that there are 2 home PL fixtures in a week is a tad baffling.

    Bring my old man up next thursday for his first lions meeting at the new place

    What is parking like and the general area around the stadium, we will likely be up a good few hours before the meeting starts 

    If you are getting there early you should be ok for a spot in the stadium car park. Time limit is 4 hours on the shopping centre car park or there is also the nearby industrial estate on Boston Road.

    There are currently road closures nearby which means you have to come around the back of the shopping centre and past the pits access road to get to both the stadium & shopping centre car parks.

    On to tonights meeting. This is goi g to be very tough for the lions tonight.

    Masters rides Leicester better than fricke.

    Steve worrall rides Leicester better than sedgmen 

    Lawson probably just edges Rory out this time at 3

    Douglas rides Leicester better than bomber.

    Nick Morris probably just edges wolves number 5.

    The reserves is where it gets interesting! Could go either way! 

    Nicholls at 5 for Wolves, so they all go well round Leicester.

    The Lions really need to be firing on all cylinders to get anything out of this.

    My eyesight Is not as good as it used to be but I'm sure the Lion's team manager was driving the tractor last night. I would have thought he should have been in the pits sorting his team out! It's bad enough riders doubling up but how many team managers do?

    Looked like BTFC driving the tractor all night to me.
