PowerfulPierre 88 Posted May 4, 2022 Can't see anything but a Lions win for this one, but not convinced that it will be a walk in the park. No doubt Scott will be giving his team mates the low down on the Leicester track and will be helping the 2nd strings around demonstrating a master class in team riding. Troy Batchelor will need to be tamed but our heat leaders are the right Lions for that job! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lbw 869 Posted May 4, 2022 (edited) I'll be at this one, nearly back from Plymouth, me Pirates found it tuff goin....me choo choo about to leave London. Lions to reach 60+ again no trouble. Whoops Scotty may score a few but Lions top 3 are way too strong at home for him to get a proper look in. Jack Thomas is avin a great start to the season & he's coming to a track he'll know about, but nah the Twins will keep him quiet. Game Over!

W9 Lion 222 Posted May 4, 2022 Should be some cracking racing this weekend as I understand that a motorway blade has been on the track all day today to smooth out the track in readiness for the visit of the Cheetahs on Saturday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hope so, maybe the bumps were contributing to the good racing... we'll find out Saturday. Good to see Anders Rowe announced and the rumour about Matthew Gilmour seems not to be true (yet) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, altho Lions spanked the Bear bottoms last Saturday there was sum good racing. Maybe the waves they had tho created better racing? Can a track be too smooth? We'll find out on Saturday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Teromaafan 586 Posted May 7, 2022 So much for the rumour about Rowe’s departure. Would love to see him bang a few points in tonight. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rowe as got plenty of potential like Ablitt at Poole. They will or should be given time by Leicester & Poole respectively even tho they are two clubs that demand success. At least one thing is on their side, it's no so easy to bring in Johnny foreigner any more. Ablitt is my talent spot from seeing him ride at Rye House in 2018 along with Max Perry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's odd as Poole owned one of these up until 8 or 9 years back. Was always parked up at the back of tractor bay. Surprised you never saw it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
