What do you guys prefer as race night?

Surely there must be an announcement soon?

Makes you wonder if part of the reason why Leicester are waiting to make any announcements is in part due to waiting to see what happens at Coventry/Bees riders.

I would think that to be the case.

 

Don't want any team to pack up, but Craig Cook would be a good addition.

According to the website, it looks like Leicester has signed the 7 Tbc brothers as the 2017 team

 

Set to be released after Coventry declare out which they will do.

 

Then King @ No1

I'd have thought if Coventry don't ride then King would be sought after by Belle Vue, he's excellent at the new NSS, especially when winning the British final there. Can't say he's ever been particularly impressive around BP.

That's exactly what Dave Darcy has stated in both last week's and this week's Speedway Star!! Not long to wait now with tomorrow being the deadline for Coventry!!

Richard Lawson on Facebook. Not going to Leicester as he expected. Says something will be announced tomorrow? Possible Cov closure and Leicester naming a team full of Bees?? What you reckon?

Perhaps Leicester have decided to stay with Saturday night racing, something they wouldn't have been able to do if they had signed Lawson, because he's already at a Saturday track with Glasgow.

That makes sense. If Bees don't run I doubt Leicester would want all 7 riders.

That's a shame. Think he would have been decent.

As has been posted by Richard Lawson tonight there will be more info for Leicester fans and EL clubs tomorrow about who is running and on which night.

 

Now this has all been confirmed I expect the first Lions signing to be announced very soon with another to follow shortly after.
