     Nobody's forcing you to pay it. Take your wife out for a drink on saturday night instead. You might just get two pints and two small glasses of wine for £16 if you're lucky, then you can be back home for about 8 o'clock. 

    With the wine my old lady drinks I couldn’t do that for anywhere near 16 quid. Thanks for the advice though.

    Quote from Josh Bates video interview on Speedway GB website: "I feel more cleverer on a bike...."

    He’s also so much more cleverer, he appears not to realise which night he’s riding on. Constantly refers to how great riding on a Sunday will be. Even though he’ll be riding on a Saturday evening for the Lions.

    Gawd ‘elp us.

    Not sure how you think I could have known and thus said anything about the decision any sooner. Because DB wanted to wait until after the AGM before deciding on which leagues his two clubs would take part. Then BAM job done. Also, not much point in running any type of business at a loss is there? hence DB and his team of promoters see Leicester in Division two as a way of making profit.  Just a shame they couldn't work out how to promote the sport in the top flight and make profit you know, like good promoters do. Or is that owners?

    Don’t disagree with your sentiment there at all. With all that’s seemingly going on in British speedway at the moment can any promoter make a profit in the top division?

    Does this reduction in the total team points mean that somebody with a 2018 average of around 7.5 could be signed, and become a good No.1 in 2019? Think that's what I'd be looking for!

    Busk Jacobsen was that quick round Leicester this year he could virtually ride for us at no.1, especially in this new, weaker “championship”

    I said a couple of weeks ago that the decision that Leicester have made would please some fans with Saturday night racing and dropping to a weakened Championship 

    It will be interesting to see what the crowds are like on Saturdays in the 2nd division as part of the reason Mr Hemsley took the club up was falling crowds on Saturday night and also rider availability 

    The club needs success. Even at this relatively low level we’re now at. If we start losing home meetings in this league the crowds will be very low I fear.

    Really hoping for once the luck is with us next year and we find a winning formula.

    Absolutely crucial  to have a very competitive team when you drop down a league. But the reasons seem to be the right ones. Its already been stated by the club that a big hitter No.1 is a must-have, so who will that be?? 

    Would it be Danny King?
