Think Leicester will miss out on the top 4 though 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FishersGate 522 Posted February 27, 2023 (edited) I think top 4 is realistic but now other teams have announced some big names it's getting hard and harder to imagine Leicester lifting any silverware. Think this season relies upon the form of Jake Allen and Justin Sedgmen. Fricke will do the business home and away. Lawson is a track specialist at Leicester and is a seasoned pro. Harris is a legend and can still provide big score especially away from Leicester. Morris is the track record holder and will up his average for sure. Dan Thomson will struggle away but he will claim to some big scalps at home. Think if Sedgmen and Allen can master the lions den then who knows. I'm going leicester for 4th spot.

PowerfulPierre 88 Posted February 27, 2023 Popped up to the track yesterday and have to say how impressed I was with the activity going on by the band of volunteers getting things ready. Track staff were working tirelessly to make good the track on the pits exit with the installation of kick boards on the outer perimeter and new safety fence, half of the air fence was installed, lots of areas have been tidied up and painted and a whole crew were hard at it painting the inner perimeter fence. The smell of fresh paint everywhere reminded me of my days working in education when we knew that OFSTED were due a visit! Could it be that the newly crowned King has booked one of the corporate boxes for a bit of a do after his Coronation?!!!!! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It has that winning feel about it,sedgmen and Allen will be fine home and away so get behind them both,fricke needs to lift when it matters and that should keep him in the number 1 position ,how does a team with so many ausies loose ?

I know every club does, but the inspection is always more detailed when there has been a lot of work done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No. The boards are there to stop the track falling away. Its to keep the integrity of the outside edge of the track. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's fairly easy to park. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
