SCB 0 Posted July 17, 2017 Btsport have had a real steal off Sky. Nearly all the meetings so far have been eventful, although in this case not always for the right reasons. Fingers crossed the withdrawan riders are able to ride again soon. Have there been any crap meetings on Sky/Eurosport/BT Sport in the last 2 season? It's been two good season IMO. Proof that the core sport, 4 riders doing 4 laps is as great as it's ever been - it's the politics that are killing it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crazy robin 2,963 Posted July 17, 2017 How unlucky can Leicester be. Everything against them tonight 👎🏻 Haha Rosco says people shouldn't write his team off. He's been against a 4 man team most the meeting. He should be doing well against a team with only 3 riders in races Why unlucky as they were stronger with r/r, didn't go for a no 8 & had a rider injured by one of their own riders??. Swindon took advantage of Leicester's mistakes. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed, Nilsson and King didn't step up enough, after a sterling 28pts from the reserves 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Scrutton 180 Posted July 17, 2017 Leicester lost due to that stupid T/R that and the G/P JOKER are all wrong it should always be 3 for a win 2 for 2nd and 1 for 3rd and no more This is something i have always believed in' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheRealFiend 1,109 Posted July 17, 2017 Jim Lynch should have stayed retired. He mucked up at Wolves earlier this season as well lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tyretrax 2,253 Posted July 17, 2017 Don't be such a prat to suggest he would fencing anyone. Clearly he is not perhaps spatially aware but I don't believe any of those moves were deliberate. Accidents happen. One question for Leicester though. Why are all the track staff standing there looking at Pawel laying on the track, I counted at least half dozen at one point. FFS give the rider and the ambulance staff space you moronic ghouls. Accidents can be avoided. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCB 0 Posted July 17, 2017 ask those riders who got injured what they thought of the track nothing there to make me drive to Leicester for a meeting Newman rode into another rider Pawel rode into/was ridden into Batch was ridden into Nilsson rode into another rider That leaves Adam Ellis as a rider who lifted but was that the track or the rider? No other riders appeared to struggle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theblueboy 960 Posted July 17, 2017 Rider gets injured in his first 2 rides and the team is not already using R/R. Were they not using RR for Bates? There's a couple of people I would like to thank for tonight's entertainment. Firstly, Jim Lynch on gifting the Robins 3 valuable points. Riss gets you out of all sorts of trouble in heat 14 only for you to call 2 and 4 in 15. Stevie Wonder could have done a better job tbh. Secondly, well done to Muesli. Looks a steal on 4.53 and gives us a much more solid look to the team. If he can work out Blunsdon quickly we might have a team that could cause some damage in the play offs, should we get there. Finally, to Bet365 for the gift of +2 Musielak v Przedepelski. Much appreciated fellas. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCB 0 Posted July 17, 2017 Finally, to Bet365 for the gift of +2 Musielak v Przedepelski. Much appreciated fellas. That and the nice people at Skybet offering Riss as meetings top scoring at 10/1. As a result I've seen a great meeting and won a fortune. If Carlsberg did Monday nights! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beckettlion 195 Posted July 17, 2017 Never come away from a meeting with such conflicting feelings... The racing tonight was possibly the best I've ever seen at Leicester. The effort the boys put in was incredible, Lasse and Erik were amazing at reserve, beating heat leaders, excellent passing. Erik in heat 14, to put everything behind him, when he was so visibly shaken and take the 3 points was just unbelievable! But to lose in such circumstances was gut wrenching. From where I was, to disqualify Nilsson seemed such a bizarre decision (but I could be wrong). But I just can't stop worrying about Pawel- has anyone heard any news? One of the worst crashes I've seen live. (Incidently, all the bad crashes at Leicester seem to be in televised meetings- Michelsen and Woffinden have both been over the fence in TV meetings before, from memory). Also, to lose Kyle so early on was a massive shame, can't wait to watch him get going in Lions colours. Thoughts are with Pawel and his injury, and Erik as it can't be easy having been out there at the time (seems harsh to suggest Erik intentionally fenced him) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
