Looks like nobody can muster up the enthusiasm to even start a thread on this one let alone to actually go.

So... erm...

We've got a few over there this year.    Lidsey, List, Kennedy, Josh McPherson.

Despite Theresa May's visas, you can't keep 'em out!

I`m quite looking forward to how Keynan Rew gets on in Poland this season.(Leszno and Rawicz)

A really good meeting  . Some good team riding & passing in most races. 

Seems Stewart has managed to get some consistency in the surface, I fear for Scunthorpe on the road they have a very long tail end. 

 

Only downside from tonight is i didn’t  have the courage to ask the attractive young female Scunthorpe fan in the Grey hat on bend 1 for her number :-(

Just shows matches don't have to be 46-44 to have good racing. In spite of the big scoreline there was plenty of passing tonight, but I am still hoping some other teams put up a better performance than the last two as it's quite boring winning by such large amounts. Quite surprising so far but the biggest and most unexpected tonight was the firework just when  Lucy was settling down for her nap. :o

Hope Jake Allen is okay after his nasty crash.

One question I have to ask after reading Dave Peet's comments on the Scorpions site

“Leicester haven’t been in our league for a while, so some of the lads had not ridden it before, and we spent most of the meeting trying to get dialled in, while the track was a bit grippy early on.

“In the end, it became a stepping stone for our league meeting here later in the season. Next year we come back, we’ll be dialled in.”

Which guys haven't seen the track before? Auty and Garrity rode for them. Allen rode in top flight last year so will have been to Leicester. Coventry rode their NL fixtures there so Bailey and Kinsley will have rode for Mildenhall and List rode in the ben fund a couple of weeks back.

Got to wonder if he does actually have a clue

He hasn't got a clue, Scunny have never done well since he has been team manager,  needs somebody with a bit more get up and go.

Was awful at Hull as a team manager and didn't do much better at Berwick either.

I've now looked it up Bailey was injured so didn't ride at Leicester but Kinsley did. 

It's been a couple of years since Nielsen rode there too. So the ones who haven't rode there recently were actually the ones from Scunthorpe (Nielsen and Bailey) who did their job

I think most Leicester fans will/would ‘put up with’ and actually love a season of easy home wins with good racing like last night, after 8 years of near bottom of the league stuff :-)

Yes you're right and as long as there is some good racing as well I agree.  Just hoping the opposition heat leaders put up more of a fight than they have lately.
