mdmc82 2,878 Posted August 7, 2015 COLLECTION FOR KERR Friday August 07, 2015 COVENTRY will be holding a collection for Lewis Kerr at our next Elite League home fixture. This will be when the Buildbase Bees face Leicester at Brandon on Friday August 14. Lewis remains in Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge following his horrific crash in the Premier League Fours last weekend. Recent updates have thankfully offered encouragement, but there is still a very long journey ahead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CB252 1,376 Posted August 10, 2015 Going to be another Lions select with Walasek, Masters and the reserves missing. Perhaps Coventry should let King ride in the LCSF at Edinburgh for Ipswich to even things up a bit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted August 10, 2015 (edited) Going to be another Lions select with Walasek, Masters and the reserves missing. Perhaps Coventry should let King ride in the LCSF at Edinburgh for Ipswich to even things up a bit? Coventry are likely to also be missing Robson. Why isn't Walasek riding as rode in Poland yesterday, does he have a fixture clash? Whilst it's not ideal having riders missing, sometimes the right guests can make you stronger than your original line up (just look at the team Lakeside brought to Leciester) Edited August 10, 2015 by mdmc82 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebrum 6,831 Posted August 10, 2015 A Lions select side is usually stronger than a regular one. However another nul points for the Lions again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CB252 1,376 Posted August 10, 2015 Falubaz are riding in a meeting that's been in the list since the start of the season so Walasek will be riding for them. Andersen and Doyle both potentially have Danish League conflicts as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gemini 4,894 Posted August 10, 2015 So how come there are Danish and Polish League matches when they are supposed to have a set race day, which is not a Friday? A lot of UK fans go on about us riding on a set day which would help solve all our problems and encourage the 'names' to return yet Poland and Denmark obviously don't stick to theirs.....unless I'm missing something? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andersen and Doyle both potentially have Danish League conflicts as well. Didn't Hans join his Danish team later than the start of the season? Andersen has missed two Danish fixtures this season so far to ride for bees. Hopefully he will ride for the bees. Edited August 10, 2015 by mdmc82 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Danish fixtures are Wednesday and Friday Doyle won't be a problem - he is basically too good for the Danish League and has only ridden once (Karpov, Fricke and Lahti are the top three foreigners who ride regularly in the DSL) Andersen may be a problem but I'd guess he'll ride at Cov and Munkebo will use Kenni Larsen. They are best team in the league riding at home so can probably afford to be without him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are best team in the league riding at home so can probably afford to be without him.Could probably say the same of the Bees too - especially vs a depleted Leicester side. Without Walasek who's been superb at Brandon this season they're Lions to the slaughter (see what I did there?!). I actually feel really sorry for Leicester this year, I think they've had so some decent riders this year and at times have looked close to a decent team on paper but injuries and riders attitudes have gone against them big time.

robert72 845 Posted August 10, 2015 I will give it a miss at £21 to get in with a programme for what is a select team match they make out is ELITE league. How many riders are missing from both teams ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gemini 4,894 Posted August 10, 2015 Danish fixtures are Wednesday and Friday Ah...thanks for that. I thought it was just Wednesday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robert72 845 Posted August 10, 2015 Leicester lions official website has No mention of this match at Brandon on Friday ? I guess they don't want Leicester fans to know they face top of the league Coventry bees down the m69 what a poor show by the promotion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is listed in their fixture list. They have a fixture on Wed at King's Lynn so i'm sure they will focus on that first. http://leicesterlions.co/fixtures/ Edited August 10, 2015 by mdmc82 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think there website is very poor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
