beckettlion 195 Posted December 2, 2015 How about this team? 1 Piotr Protasiewicz 7.67 2 Linus Sundstrom 7.22 3 Gregorz Walasek 5.91 4 Thomas H Jonasson 5.69 5 Szymon Wozniak 5.51 6 Josh Auty 4.80 7 Paul Starke 3.60 Total: 40.40 Would be an absolutely quality team, but the likelihood of convincing them all to race not only in the elite league, but in the elite league for leicester on a saturday night, when they're all likely to be racing in Poland on Sunday the next day is a problem.

proud panther 1,507 Posted December 2, 2015 Hope the brilliant fans of Leicester get a team that is worthy of them. The stubborn attitude of DH regarding the track & race night is coming back to haunt him I'm afraid. If he wanted to stick with Saturday nights, he should have dropped back down to the Premier League. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebrum 6,831 Posted December 2, 2015 Dont know why some are saying THJ is a heat leader. Never has been over here, and going on averages won't be. Doesn't mean to say he shouldn't be given he is fresh out of racing in the GP's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foreverblue 6,119 Posted December 2, 2015 Never has been over here, and going on averages won't be. Doesn't mean to say he shouldn't be given he is fresh out of racing in the GP's. For a rider who has never really lit up the EL and has never been a heat leader over here, i don't think the fact he was in the gp's should count considering how badly he did in them but he is worth his current average and did well for poole when he rode for them but that was mainly at reserve.

A GP rider who last rode here as a reserve tells us all we need to know about THJ, makes me laugh when some hype him as something special. Made bomber look like a World beater!

Skidder1 7,659 Posted December 2, 2015 THJ last rode here as a 2nd string behind Ward, Hancock and Janowski in 2013 helping Poole to the EL title and gaining a 5.69 average in a much tougher format than we have now. He then went on to become Swedish champion and a GP rider. I assume you are suggesting he still be a 2nd string?! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think a few people, myself included, feel that he'd be a good rider as part of our septet considering the limited options available to us Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weatherwatcher 664 Posted December 2, 2015 Funny how Rosco couldn't wait to see the back of Jason Doyle, thta is until he rode 2 brilliant seasons for the Lions and an even better performance for his first year in the GP's and now all of a sudden he is back in his team again. Funny old world is speedway. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

beckettlion 195 Posted December 2, 2015 Steady seems to be dropping hints that he'd welcome a return to the lions on Twitter... Steady walasek thj Wozniak would be a solid enough (not awe inspiring admittedly) 4/5s of the main body of the team! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shirl 165 Posted December 2, 2015 Steady seems to be dropping hints that he'd welcome a return to the lions on Twitter... Steady walasek thj Wozniak would be a solid enough (not awe inspiring admittedly) 4/5s of the main body of the team! Steady would be great let's hope he is fully fit after his bad injuries of last season I think all lions fans would be happy if he did return.

justathought 374 Posted December 3, 2015 I've said it before. We had Jason Doyle at No 1 for two seasons, didn't do us a lot of good in terms of our end league potion did it. Strength in depth is the answer. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
