Fozzie4388 677 Posted July 17, 2021 Scunthorpe's Programme is one of the best around. For £1 you get all you need the racecard for the meeting you don't need to spend £3 on a interview you read on the internet 3 days beforehand 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buy and print t-shirts for a fiver, sell em for £20. There are a lot of people that wear Leicester merch on race night at BP. I've stood there and watched people shell out £25-£30 for tour t-shirts at music concerts! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
False dawn 2,294 Posted July 23, 2021 I know I'm the resident nerd but I have what I think is a very pertinent question...... Issue 11 of the Championship declarations shows Dan Thompson's new average, 6.05, effective 28/7/21. This means Dan can continue to ride at reserve this Saturday vs Poole and at Plymouth next Tuesday. However, checking the rules, Dan's new average should become effective 7 days after the last qualifying meeting (Eastbourne last Sunday 18th July). On that basis Dan will be in the team at Plymouth. I'm guessing the effective date of 28/7/21 is a mistyping of the 25/7/21. But the difference in dates could make a big difference to the result at Plymouth. [And just to prove I'm not infallible. I just proofread the above and I'd typed Dan's new average as 60.5. With that average we'd definitely win the league ] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

See what ya mean m8, I think we had triple/treble champions put on some hoodies after we won in 2006 or 2009. Maybe worth asking? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's just a point I'm trying to make that the club are doing nothing to "cash in" on their success and get a bit of extra money in the coffers... you generally see quite a lot of folk at Leicester wearing other club merchandise, so I would suggest there is a market for it.

LCFC T shirts celebrate winning 2021 FA cup. Tour T’s reflect current tour of band. unfortunately COVID wiped out the opportunity Lions had to cash in with Merch. Frankly doing something now would appear out of date from the off - unless of course the year was not actually included. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even if that was the case why wasn't there a range out for Christmas 2019? Or ready for the 2020 season? The club did nothing! I've seen people walking around wearing 2020 GP T-shirts with the original (cancelled) calendar on the back!

Well done to Stuart Dickson for his praise of Poole in his post-meeting comments - especially after his previous disparaging remarks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
