At the time it was a rumour and not one that was of knowledge to everyone. Sadly the rumour has been proved true and we've sadly lost one of the sports biggest supporters. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Racin Jason 72 1,283 Posted April 16, 2022 I purchased the stream and was very impressed with the first broadcast. great racing in front of a very healthy crowd. I expected Leicester to win easily but Scunthorpe rode very well indeed. And deserved the emphatic win. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
