Phil The Ace 2,860 Posted August 14, 2018 I thought mountain looked good last night. Very unfair on him. He gets shafted by Ipswich and now Leicester. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But he's been moved into the Sheffield side. I hope the lad has a decent sense of direction and a good satnav Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Has made some good progress this year. It’s always the younger reserves that get shafted too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Regional papers these days are often about 2 weeks+ behind with anything that isn't mainstream, or assaults and murders. Maybe they still catching up with Leicester's team changes from last week!! You can hardly blame them for getting confused, the poor little interns. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dont forget that these changes were made before last nights meeting, before the transfer cut off and therefore last nights scores were not taken into consideration. I was impressed with both Robson and Mountain last night. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Al 708 Posted August 15, 2018 If this information is genuine and correct, seems like it is with the purpose of trying to get a win at Hyde Road on Monday and move off the bottom of the league. Those two could outscore what Robbo and Mountain would get, and along with Auty if fit again, might make up for the probable deficiencies of Nicholls and Wells. Bit of a long shot though, and a real farce. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
justathought 374 Posted August 15, 2018 I actually emailed Leicester Speedway and asked for clarification (yes I'm that sad) . I was told that they now intend to stick with the original team, so now there is no changes. An article will appear in the Leicester Mercury newspaper. Why they didn't say this themselves...............who knows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

40-38 308 Posted August 15, 2018 (edited) What an utter joke. Laurel and Hardy appear to have taken over the promotion of Leicester Speedway If it weren't for being cast adrift by the cut off you do wonder if the riders would have turned round and told them to do one after that.
