    They can't be sure of when it is possible to run until the Championship fixtures are published. Both teams will be waiting for both leagues fixtures to confirmed before announcing a date only to be forced to change it.

    The Championship fixtures have now been published. Still no sign of the Jubliee play off dates!

    It's not a Premiership fixture. I guess all will become clear when the Championship fixtures are made available. This Inter-league Challenge ( as it now is) is expected to be to start the season.

    I know it's not a Premiership fixture but there's no reason Lion's can't put the Jubilee Trophy fixtures on their own Web site!

    The car park is not owned by Leicester Speedway 

    I don't think anything at Beaumont Park is owned by Leicester Speedway. It's owned by Leicester City Council and leased to David Helmsley who sub leases parts to Leicester Speedway.

    I'm sure Mr Helmsley wouldn't object to holes in his car park being filled in by Leicester Speedway!

    The revised planning requirements included the car park being tarmacked over with parking places marked out. This is the landlord's responsibility (Mr Hemsley). So if anyone incurs an injury, you know who to threaten legal action with. 

    I wonder if the Swindon equipment had been acquired sooner, would the second leg of the final have been run at Leicester?

    I know about the planning permission to tarmac the car park and mark it out but I think that's unlikely to happen. I don't park in the car park but it's a definite put off trying to walk through it especially when the pot holes are full of water!

    Was it in a "fixture filler" 4TT at back end of the 2011 season? Also I vaguely recall he was riding under a different name, or the programme had his name incorrect. 

    Max scored 8 + 1 guesting for Coventry against Leicester at Leicester in the Premier League on 19th April 2014. He was an Edinburgh rider at that time. For the record the Bees won 50.40.

    Might be wrong on this but I think he rode at Leicester towards the end of 2011 season for an Edinburgh team, which would have been among his first public appearances on UK tracks - unless I'm getting him mixed up with a different Max?

    Yes, he rode as a guest at Leicester some years ago and I remember being impressed. Perhaps someone can remember when it was.
