mrcts 252 Posted May 31, 2014 Leicester picked poorly though so it isnt only the system to blame.I agree that they picked poorly....but we are lumbered with these guys all season,no disrespect to the riders involved as I'm sure they will be decent riders in the future but Leicester currently are trying to compete with one arm behind their back.If this same system is in place next season I certainly won't be renewing my season ticket.

LagutaRacingFan 1,936 Posted June 1, 2014 Blackbird is awesome; much better than Lewis Kerr who is over hyped. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shirl 165 Posted June 1, 2014 Marc Owen at number 6 for Leicester Could it be a magic night for him ? Gary Barlow in for Tom Perry next weekend and Robbie in for JD,now that would magic We need Lewis 'Back for Good',but that will never happen cos we booted him out. Good luck to Lewis just hope he's injury free all season, he's a gem 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Haza 1,774 Posted June 1, 2014 Blackbird is awesome; much better than Lewis Kerr who is over hyped. nothing to do with the fact that Blackbird rides for Pboro in the Premier League and Kerr for Lynn in the Elite League ??? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good luck to Lewis just hope he's injury free all season, he's a gem I'm all for banter but anyone who knows Marc knows he is coming back from a very serious head injury a couple of seasons back. So mock all you want but the lad deserves some respect. I don't know the circumstances of his inclusion in the Lions, as it is probably a little early for him but how is that his fault?.

david2905 230 Posted June 1, 2014 Blackbird is doing well, but Kerr is the stand out reserve so far this season for me, could be something special if he keeps up that rate of progress. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hunters 210 Posted June 1, 2014 Entertaining Night thanks to the efforts of the Lions heat leaders just as expected. Interesting piece of trivia, only 6 sub 57.00 secs times all season but last night 7 times in one match which shows how they pushed the home boys. Well done Uncle Bob on a good fast track. Grading every race kept the times down and the track smooth, cannot understand why everybody doesn't do it or is it more negative influence from Sky? Back in the 50's & 60's every track I went to did it as a matter of course and they didn't waste time because they had a concrete starting gate and no endless gardening at the start.

lionking 127 Posted June 1, 2014 Sarjeant said after his crash on Thursday that he felt he should be ok for Saturday but when he woke up on Saturday he was still feeling worse for wear so let Leicester know at 10am he wasn't fit. Trying to find someone to travel down to the other end of the country at such short notice for poor money is very hard. As for Leicester booting Blackbird out this was not the case Lewis asked to leave the club because he felt that he needed to be riding on a faster circuit to help him learn & progress his career which is why he went to Scunthorpe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
