iainb 5,197 Posted March 25, 2022 Leicester throwing all their promotional might at this one and finally give it a mention on the website with little more than 24 hours until tapes up LEICESTER: Nick Morris, Connor Mountain, Kyle Howarth, Dan Thompson, Richie Worrall, Anders Rowe, Joe Thompson. BIRMINGHAM: Claus Vissing, James Shanes, Stefan Nielsen, Ashley Morris, Josh Auty, Ben Morley, James Pearson. No Adam Ellis... again! Is he frit of Leicester or something. He's just "unavailable" this time unlike the lies that were spun last time. Was quite looking forward to this, probably give it a miss now in favour of the Ben Fund at Peterborough Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Should Birmingham not be using the 75% ave rule, Poole & Glasgow used last year? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can't answer that as i'm not part of the Birmingham management team You could also ask the question why Leicester's Management are desperate to run a KOC Meeting opening night against a weakened team instead of a challenge meeting or Individual like most clubs. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because 1. They would have to pay for both teams making break even much higher 2. Individual Meetings at Beaumont Park have been poorly supported in the past and lost moneyh.

My point exactly, the rule was used twice last year, once for a rider who hadn't ridden yet (Glasgow) and once for a rider who never arrived (Poole). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gambo 1,345 Posted March 25, 2022 I'm led to believe that Leicester were happy for the 75% guest to be used, but Birmingham were refused the facility. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
