FishersGate 521 Posted July 23, 2022 5 hours ago, Turnip said: Bomber average around Leicester? Well if his average is getting double figures then I'll agree with u. Wouldn't dismiss Bomber wherever he rides, 100% commitment & entertainment........need more like him He only lives down the road from Leicester but everyone at the club and Harris has always said he wouldn't score as much at Leicester as he would somewhere else. He's even said it himself my friends have spoken with him. Shame because yes a British speedway legend for sure. He sometimes brings his kid along to watch some speedway when he's not riding (which is never he's a busy man)! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bomber would soon dial into Leicester track if he signed.But unfortunately you would have to arrange your season round his schedule and he would still be missing a few Saturdays.!!!!

screm 8,053 Posted July 23, 2022 Looks like it will be Connor Coles who could be guesting for Berwick at Leicester tomorrow. 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hopefully is visa will be reinstated before Berwick's next meeting. So it's false advertising by Leicester? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arnieg 3,634 Posted July 24, 2022 (edited) On the one hand I think it will be good to see Connor get a run out against the Lions, but it will be a shame their fans don't get to see Jonas Knudsen - a very talented rider. And if he doesn't return a big disappointment for Berwick. Edited July 24, 2022 by arnieg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iainb 4,993 Posted July 24, 2022 So IF Connor Coles is guesting for Knudsen he'll be riding against the team he's trying to progress into... just when you think Speedway couldn't get to new levels of stupidity, it never fails to surprise you! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How ironic if Connor does guest for Berwick and has a stormer of a meeting which effectively stops Lion's from winning tonight! It's madness! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iainb 4,993 Posted July 24, 2022 (edited) From the Leicester website, published yesterday: LEICESTER: Richard Lawson, Connor Mountain, Richie Worrall, Dan Thompson, Kyle Howarth, Max Clegg, Joe Thompson.BERWICK: Chris Harris, Theo Pijper, Jye Etheridge, Ricky Wells, Leon Flint, Jonas Knudsen, Nathan Stoneman. So it looks like Knudsen will be riding after all, it was all much ado about nothing and it's @screm that's dropped the bllck Edited July 24, 2022 by iainb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
