Jason.C 111 Posted February 3, 2014 Pretty much is a black leg! Pirates decorated the black bottoms a few seasons ago too. Lions gear looks smart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jim the whipper 231 Posted February 4, 2014 No wonder , hardly anybody posts on here any more , can't we get back to something interesting like which section of the BSPA site the new sponsor announcement is on , I'm sure Hurricanes can go at least another 4 pages , then once cornered he can wheel out the old anti Hemsley /Leicester jibes 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weatherwatcher 664 Posted February 4, 2014 It would be nice to see on the Lions web site what is actually going on at BP. They have told us about the new sponsers and the new Kelvars. But still the most imortant issue has not been mentioned and that is who is the last rider or who are the last 2 riders if Jason Doyle fails to get his Visa. We are now in Febuarry and thje new season will soon be upon us. So why all the big huss huss ?????. And are we having a team manager or not. Be a little unwise in the Elite League without one. !!!!! I am sure by now the powers above know all the answers to these questions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Presumably Speedway Star is where you'll find anything more and even then whatever "news" is released will be carefully limited. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve0 5,517 Posted February 5, 2014 Doyle will only ride for Leicester next year Somerset have just confirmed. This should hopefully confirm him as an EL only rider in future and prevent him from doubling down. It was ludicrous that a rider with his EL average was permitted to continue riding in the PL these last few years by virtue of the fact that he beat a cut-off!

justathought 374 Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) On Lions Facebook Page. Jason Doyle's return moves closer to a solutionThe doubts surrounding the return of Jason Doyle to ride in the UK are now diminishing as there is a glimmer of hope that he may be allowed back into the country to work. Two weeks after signing to ride for Leicester it became known that Doyle’s application was turned down which left the club in a quandary as to the best course of action to take. Leicester decided to wait and see what developed rather than panic and look for a new number one and their wait appears to be paying off.Promoter David Hemsley who has been championing Jason’s cause had this to say : “I have been in constant contact with Jason since it was first known that his Tier 2 (Sportsperson) application had been declined and have also been liaising with the UK Border Agency and the BSPA in an effort to bring the situation to a satisfactory conclusion for all parties. Discussions are still ongoing and progress is being made towards allowing Jason back into the UK on a Tier 5 (Temporary Worker – Creative and Sporting) Sponsorship. In such circumstances caution is the key word but we are doing everything possible and hopefully I will soon be in a position to confirm that Jason Doyle will be leading the Lions in 2014.” Edited February 5, 2014 by nightshift Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big Al 708 Posted February 5, 2014 Only if he can get a tier 5 visa. Leave it in the capable hands of Keith Vaz to fix that one 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
