But the final race was the best I’ve seen all season Sorry if you think I was doing to much tractor work, it was needed , 30 mins between main meeting and ready for the cubs is good going, it gave them a good track to ride,more importantly it protects the track from breaking up. Which believe me tacks a hell of a long time to put right again. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was concerned we wouldn’t actually get finished before the curfew though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If things were actually explained to us then we might not get annoyed or so annoyed by things like wot we call tractor racing. All it takes sometimes is a simple explanation like yours @BTFC LION to appease us. In that 30mins some entertainment should have been put on by Leicester tho, this is another speedway failing. Admittedly I wasn't at Leicester last night but I do attend regularly. This happens with alot of things that go on within the sport that pees us fans off, nothing is ever explained as to why something is done. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dopnt forget that Leicester City were playing with a 3pm kick off. That match wouldn't finish until around 5pm and some people would not visit both events.
