As they made Sarjeant an asset last season along with Connor Mountain, I would think both will feature. If Josh Bates is fully fit he'll obviously be either at Leicester or Sheffield. Would also love to see NBJ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big Al 708 Posted November 14, 2018 Absolutely crucial to have a very competitive team when you drop down a league. But the reasons seem to be the right ones. Its already been stated by the club that a big hitter No.1 is a must-have, so who will that be?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big Al 708 Posted November 14, 2018 1 hour ago, jenga said: WHY ? Because interest/crowd levels could really fall off the cliff edge otherwise. Leicester is a city with plenty of sport to go and see, and to compete with the other offerings not just in terms of people choosing how to spend their money and time but also local media interest, the Lions need to be up near the top, because the change in league will be seen as relegation. The hard core loyalists will keep going come what may, but that won't be enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jenga 2,998 Posted November 15, 2018 if you watch moto GP , 9just when i catch it) you will see that the moto 2/3 boys put on quite a good show . one rider does not run away with it , unlike moto gp boys M.M. the riders are all still in with a fighting chance of winning, even on the last lap. sure they may not be breaking any records . but they are entertaining as hell . so just because people want to see top men thinking they are being entertained, they are not . they are only doing their day job better than the rest at a higher rate of pay . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big Al 708 Posted November 15, 2018 Does this reduction in the total team points mean that somebody with a 2018 average of around 7.5 could be signed, and become a good No.1 in 2019? Think that's what I'd be looking for! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Busk Jacobsen was that quick round Leicester this year he could virtually ride for us at no.1, especially in this new, weaker “championship” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
