stevebrum 6,835 Posted November 26, 2014 Someone needs to give Leicester fans their own TV show I imagine it would look a bit like Benefit street characters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeicesterLion39 55 Posted November 27, 2014 I am happy with the resreves we have got but am disappointed we didnt protect Josh Bates. However i will give the new guys my 100% backing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TMW 533 Posted November 27, 2014 Josh Auty it is then ? Well I was at the undet 15's which he won (in style) he said and I quote. My aim is to be World Champ so that should give you hours of belly laughs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My aim is to be World Champ so that should give you hours of belly laughs Josh Auty's average from matches round Leicester is 6.88 from 6 matches and Simon Lambert is 5.16 from 13 matches. If they maintain that average we will be ok and i cant see any reason why they shouldn't 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Falcon Hammer 576 Posted November 27, 2014 You mean riding on the very edge of their respective abilities? If so, does that mean they ride harder than their skill level and end up in positions on track they shouldn't be? Or because they don't respect the throttle hand? Because constantly falling and getting injured cannot be good for their confidence, or health or bank balance!! It's not riding above your abilities, but trying to overtake is always more risky than settling for 2nd, 3rd. Josh Auty is a racer, who never gives up. Saw him pull off some great moves in a dead rubber for Scunny at Rye this year, and got applauded by all. It's riders like Josh who put bums on seats. Wish him all the best for 2015 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shirl 165 Posted November 27, 2014 Someone needs to give Leicester fans their own TV show They are quite shocking aren't they Luckily not all lions fans are so moronic but I do agree that eveyone has an opinion With regard to a our own TV reality show what about ' I'm not a celebrity but I may be a Tool get me outta here ' Is there any more anyone can conjure up?

Because constantly falling and getting injured cannot be good for their confidence, or health or bank balance!!What would you rather have a gating tart,? we all know his gating is a hindrance but ask the Scunny fans there can't be many riders that make more moves and make regular passes.

lionking 127 Posted November 27, 2014 The huge difference is that Josh Auty had a clear talent for speedway at 15. Luke Whitehead plays at it then gives it the big one 24/7 claiming to be a speedway rider Well I was at the undet 15's which he won (in style) he said and I quote.

Modd 17 Posted November 27, 2014 How old is Luke Whitehead? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Happy Hunter 377 Posted November 27, 2014 I don't think I said they wouldn't. LionKing seems to have a problem with kids havung goals just wondered what he thought of Auty's I don't think you can use Premier League averages to work out how well riders will do in the Elite League. Just as a by the way Tom Perry had a better Elite League average last season than Simon Lambert but the Lions got rid of Tom so what do you make of that?

bigred 188 Posted November 27, 2014 Would have preferred Clegg to Lambert. Just checked their averages for 2014 - Lambert 4.13 (3.5 ex bonus points), Clegg 3.47 (2.87). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_xbYO97X1g clegg v lambert @ Leicester .Max made a massive improvement towards the end of the season. well done max and all the very best for 2015..

Skidder1 7,664 Posted November 27, 2014 Doyley in Leicester today according to his facebook page!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weatherwatcher 664 Posted November 27, 2014 (edited) Yes youn Max really got his act together at the end of the season shame he isn't coming back. I wish him the best of luck for the 2015 season. Hope he doe's well in the future and I hope also that a PL side gives him a chance to get his career, another step along the speedway road. You never know, we just may see him back at the Lions again soon. It looks very much like Jason Doyle will be riding for us again next year, from comments made on the Internet and the fact that he has come or coming to Leicester, just hope it is to come and sign for the Lions, we need him he was outstanding at No1 this year. If so that just leaves 3 more names to finish off the team. Edited November 27, 2014 by weatherwatcher 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCB 15 Posted November 27, 2014 So Lambert has apparently signed for Workington. What was Hemsley thinking picking a rider who won't be available for home meetings?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
