And that the Queen has ruined your speedway night by dying. Well given the reaction on here perhaps the pubs should shut too and we can just stare into space for 10 days. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What a sad individual 36 minutes ago, Steve Shovlar said: Because our Queen has died and as a nation we are showing respect? 35 minutes ago, FishersGate said: I know she's the queen but cmon doesn't mean we can't enjoy our lives still? Tell that to the millions that will mourn her loss 34 minutes ago, 40-38 said: Was she planning to attend then? I didn't know her, and sad as it is life goes on. My dad died in June but I didn't expect everything to stop, and nobody tell me it's more important than that because it isn't. To$$er 30 minutes ago, 40-38 said: Thems the breaks. I just want to go out and enjoy my Saturday night. 21 minutes ago, FishersGate said: Not everyone thinks the queen was that important. I'm a youngster and think it's a compete waste of time having a queen in the first place. Il pay my respects but stopping me having fun on my Saturday is abit annoying. I can guarantee most people won't be mourning over the loss of the queen and just simply want to carry on with there lives. 15 minutes ago, 40-38 said: Do you have a poll showing that majority who want everything to grind to a halt? I mean should I go into work tomorrow if we're meant to be mourning? Like anybody I didn't know and has lived a long time in the public eye, it's sad, but she was 96, she had a good life and I can understand the day of her funeral being a public holiday perhaps but the rest is just overkill. We're already struggling for dates for finishing the season, why make it even harder? 11 minutes ago, Steve Shovlar said: The lack of respect to our Monarch from some Leicester fans is shameful to be honest. 9 minutes ago, FishersGate said: Let's all cry tonight and and to be pretend to be sad tommorow. Your choice if you want to wake up sad and grumpy but I'm gunna carry on as normal . Everyone has suddenly turned into a royalist ! 5 minutes ago, Steve Shovlar said: Perhaps you and Fishergate can go out to the pub on Saturday and chat about how you would have easily beaten Poole.

Opinions are like arse holes. Everyone's got one. If you don't like it then whatever . We're all speedway fans at the end of the day. Thats one thing we've got in common and can agree on.

iainb 5,022 Posted September 9, 2022 (edited) Can you all take your comments about the sad death of Queen Elizabeth II to this thread: Please do not contaminate this thread with your bickering, and leave this thread to the Leicester vs Poole match for whenever it takes place. Thanks Edited September 9, 2022 by iainb 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fullmax 79 Posted September 10, 2022 (edited) Perhaps it's because the Lions have only ridden in 6 home meetings since the beginning of June that upsets everyone. 6 home meetings out of the last 15 Saturdays is pathetic. Lovely summer and hardly any Championship Speedway. Who wants to travel sit (or stand ) and watch Speedway on cold , dark and damp evenings .

Have you asked yourself why we have had so few summer meetings? Could it possibly be that our promotion fulfilled their obligations to the league and cup campaigns and got the meetings completed in good time, and are now forced to wait for the other teams to play catch up, or for the boss of the B.S.P.L. to sit on the fence for months so that he could stretch (needlessly) his season out so that we could then progress? I guess that a few Saturday's were "earmarked" to cover rain offs which, if my memory serves me correctly, only happened once so far this season. Don't forget we have also had the Cubs to support who have right royally entertained us! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
