    Where are the match threads ?

    Because the so called inferior product is actually developing talent rather than being a home for experienced riders that could not progreess into Championship 1-5's. Look at yeaterdays Under 19 semi final at Plymouth and the number of riders in that who have spent a season or more riding for the Lion Cubs.

    Phil Morris CEO of British Speedway.

    I to attended the NSSC function he spoke at and was impressed with his thoughts on the sport and how it should develop. I have also worked the Cardiff SGP in the past so see what he does there to ensure that everyone knows their job and the best way to do it. Finally he has been helpful providing a better image for the sport which in time will help attract more and better sponsors. I just hope that all the Promoters buy into his vision.

    LIONS v BIRMINGHAM 25/4/24

    Obviously I have a unique prespective on this Iain. I can tell with my back to the tapes because of the change in the pressure wave hitting the back of my leg with the riders off 2 and 3 and I was aware on one occasion someone obviously had a nibble at the tapes as the pressure dropped as the revs fell. Appreciate the feedback.

    LIONS v BIRMINGHAM 25/4/24

    YR - it got it spot on last week. Rather than it may rain its forecasts the amount of rain and today at less tham 1mm it equates to Andy doing 4 laps less with water bowser. Those people that went by the BBC/Met Office forcast last week and stayed away missed the best meeting of the season so far.

    LIONS v BIRMINGHAM 25/4/24

    Depends where you look. YR forecast 0.4mm of rain this morning and 0.5mm of rain this afternoon and a dry evening. If this is the case you are still likely to see Andy and the water bowser this evening.

    Lions v Aces 18/04 PR1

    According to met check 0.5mm of rain over two hours. So that saves the club 4 laps of diesel as Andy put more than that down over four laps with the bowser.
  9. He looked totally uninterested in the meeting at Leicester.

    Aces/Lions

    Always has started seasons like this.
  11. 1. Always open for a guest booking - Start Marshals should receive training from the CofC and as a licenced official will have a copy of the rule book. 2. Leicester also provide the Cubs with a grippy track and I am always fearful at the start of Heat 2 the first time the away reserves drop the clutch.
  12. Poor old Brookie was about to pull into the car park when i called him to say it was off. Mind you he made it home for 9ish....
  13. One minute warning was removed from the rule book for this season.
  14. Track is hard, and its a dry day

    The water was brushed away a number of time throughout the day. The enterence to the stadium is lower than the land around it so once brushed or even pumped away water leaches out of the soil and returns to the lowest point.

  17. Hi Iain,

    What do you think of the clubs new branding etc?

      Not keen on the logo, the website is a massive step forward though, looks like they've used the Belle Vue template. Lions TV is a good move... personally not for me as I'll be there in the flesh.

      Thanks for taking the time to reply. Its a bespoke site so not based on anything.

    No, its a public response to clarify the clubs position.

    Dave I was sorry to hear about your condition that means you "are not sure how long I can stand for when needed, maybe 5 mins or 30 mins" as per your message to the General Manager on 7th March 2024. Being able to stand for a long time is a key atribute of a safety steward. As you put it later in the same message "I'm giving you a get out quick clause I won't complain if I don't get a job". Could we please hold you to your latter statement?
  20. Here you go Rob. This is how the track looked at 3pm on Saturday afternoon when i left.

    As an alternative you could always stream the meetings on Lions TV

    Peterborough Panthers 2023

    May I helpfully suggest Leicester is closer and all Panthers fans would be made most welcome.

    Your original post was that we had heard nothing which as they previous couple of posts have pointed out is not the case.
