mdmc82 2,878 Posted February 19, 2016 Great news that Brandon with host the Elite League riders championship in October this year. This will likely be the last meeting ever at Brandon Stadium Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisa-colette 6,034 Posted February 20, 2016 The ELRC is nothing but a pain in the bum IMO!! Feel sorry for anyone staging it, if it's not the weather being a problem, then it's riders dropping out. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Panthers89 1,922 Posted February 20, 2016 ELRC should be run at the start of the season, not when MOST are going away for the winter, or the general I cant be assed anymore. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dornier 795 Posted February 21, 2016 (edited) ELRC should be run at the start of the season, not when MOST are going away for the winter, or the general I cant be assed anymore.Sorry don`t agree ! It should be run at the end of the season as it used to be in the good old Belle Vue days...In my opinion those were the BEST days of the League Riders Championship. Who wants to see a League Riders purely used as a warm up and testing of machinery meeting ? Edited February 21, 2016 by dornier 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Who wants to see a League Riders purely used as a warm up and testing of machinery meeting ? The ELRC has become a pointless meeting, would anyone miss it these days ? It used to be one of the biggest meetings of the domestic season with the atmosphere of a mini World Final, but not anymore... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It used to be one of the biggest meetings of the domestic season with the atmosphere of a mini World Final, but not anymore...The League riders needs to be returned to its original stature at the end of the season competed for by the top riders from each team and given a prize worth competing for AND it should return to its spiritual home in Manchester. In its current form the league riders should be scrapped its not worth tuppence.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hrhbig 69 Posted February 21, 2016 (edited) The ELRC needs Elite riders, not a pot pourri of seven point contestants, its not I feel a fitting tribute to Coventry upon its demise , but then again I cant think what would be.

Trees 2,814 Posted February 22, 2016 With very few GP boys this year perhaps our riders will be glad of the extra meeting (pay day) and hopefully pleased to represent their club and fans in this meeting, ya never know 😉 And fingers crossed that we all go to support our reps too .....

Gemini 4,894 Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) Blimey! If I made that journey I'd want to stay for a week to make it worthwhile. Mind you I've a friend who is an Edinburgh fan who travelled down to Leicester for the PL match and then drove back again afterwards.

If you are going to come on here criticising get it right - it was 2014 at Brandon. It was at Leicester last year! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Luckily we now have a decent curator and the track was decent pretty much all year. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gemini 4,894 Posted February 23, 2016 Probably the beginning of Sandhu's attempts to piss everyone off by not allowing the promotion to choose their own track curator. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
