Skidder1 7,637 Posted August 21, 2014 Not sure what team Leicester will be tracking after Buckowski's shoulder injury last night. Poole will be missing Milik (U21s) but Craig Cook guests, I gather. Not sure about our Poles with it being a Saturday fixture, so who knows how this one will pan out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pointsmeanplayoffs 417 Posted August 21, 2014 Good choice of guest by Poole IMO. Should imagine they'll win pretty easily. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skidder1 7,637 Posted August 21, 2014 Surely your Poles will put Poole first?? I'm sure they would in normal circumstances, but its what their Polish clubs insist on that will rule - especially with the rearranged Polish Elite Riders Championship on Friday and a full Polish Extraliga programme on Sunday!! ps Woffy is involved in both Friday and Sunday meetings so hope he's not too tired again to return for your Saturday and Monday meetings?!

I will be watching intently on Friday to see if either of the Poole Poles strain anything during the meeting-instead of the sick certificate they could always consider the 28 day ban- withholding services option Edited August 21, 2014 by racers and royals Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure about our Poles with it being a Saturday fixture, so who knows how this one will pan out? Lions website says Leicester are definitely without Buckowski ( broken shoulder) & Klindt ( injured scaphoid),& are waiting on fitness checks for Korneliussen & Bates. So they are looking for guests & with 6 teams riding on saturday it won't leave much to choose from,especially as Poole have already grabbed track specialist Craig Cook & with Schlein not able to guest under the 8 day rule as he was at Leicester with Lakeside last saturday.

Skidder1 7,637 Posted August 21, 2014 Just to give the regular non-Poole fans something else to comment on.... Matt Williamson replaces Benji Compton .................. ....as Benji is riding for Kent in the NL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

justathought 374 Posted August 21, 2014 He has tonsillitis apparently but is hoping to be fit enough to ride for Sheffield tomorrow night (Friday) at Redcar. Which if that is the case should be ok for Saturday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Observer 55 Posted August 22, 2014 With yet another makeshift side, really cannot see anything other than a heavy home defeat for the Lions. This has been a real baptism for Leicester in their first season in the EL, hampered now by injuries and fixture congestion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skidder1 7,637 Posted August 22, 2014 Easy win for the title favourites. Buczkowski and Klindt out for the Lions. Bates, Korneliussen and Stead could be joining them as well. Mads was declared to ride in Denmark this evening, but that meeting has been called off, so presumably will be riding on Saturday. Lets hope for an injury-free Polish Elite Riders Championship tonite for Poole's 3 heat leaders!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
