I think Eastbourne may have missed the boat as he signed for Mildenhall so they own his contract. I know that as the Brummies had a look at Jason when we made reserve change but Stoneman was preferred.

Are you sure? I understood Jason Signed for Eastbourne last year?

How fortunes have changed for Charles Wright and Nick Morris !!!

Possibly Richard Sweetmans best performance at Beaumont Park :blink: 

Possibly Richard Sweetmans only performance for Glasgow, he was pretty awful and only really remembered for being photographed going head first over the first bend fence in a crash with Aaron Summers.

That year we won the league carrying Sweetman, winning home and away but the resultant wage bill almost finished us.

LEICESTER have moved to avoid a fixture backlog by adding new dates to their schedule – and it means a bumper month ahead!

Fans are urged to make a careful note of the dates as they have moved away from some Saturday dates in order to keep on track.
The high-flying Watling JCB Lions will now face Edinburgh at the Paul Chapman and Sons Arena on Wednesday July 17.
They are in Friday night action this weekend when Eastbourne visit in the second leg of their Knockout Cup tie with British legend Chris ‘Bomber’ Harris lined up as a guest for Richie Worrall – and they face Berwick on Sunday, July 14 (4 pm).
The National League side, Leicester Lion Cubs, have two Tuesday dates on July 23 against Plymouth and July 30 against Isle of Wight – both at 7.30.
Boss Stewart Dickson said: “A combination of circumstances mean we have been forced to arrange meetings away from our regular Saturday night raceday.
“It means a busy July and a great opportunity for fans to see plenty of racing throughout the month.
“When we get into August we’ll start to see more Saturday meetings again.”
The club would urge fans to keep checking the club website if they have any doubt about fixture dates and their social media channels are updated regularly every day with information.

LEICESTER SPEEDWAY JULY HOME FIXTURES:
Fri 5 v Eastbourne (KOC) 7.30
Sun 14 v Berwick (Champ) 4pm
Wed 17 v Edinburgh (Champ) 7.30
Tues 23 v Plymouth (NL) 7.30
Sat 27 v Glasgow (Champ) 7.30
Tue 30 v Isle of Wight (NL) 7.30

Wouldn’t it be helpful if Jack replaced Perks in the NL side to give the lad a bit of confidence?

It's not the confidence he needs,it's paying is what he needs.It's ridiculous that he has to take a break from the sport because he hasn't been paid.He's not the only one.Problem is for others if they say they refuse to ride because of non payment they are hit with a 28 day ban.

I thought the company which ran the speedway went into administration. If it did, it certainly isn't that company running training sessions.

He has been paid. He was offered a place in the cubs at the start of the season which he turned down because he was not offered enough to race. This was in last weeks programme.
