You'd hope whatever happens over the close season that he'd be pencilled in for a return next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Such a shame it took being virtually blacklisted at the start of the season for him to buck his ideas up, he clearly has talent when he applies himself. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Liontamer 202 Posted September 5, 2023 (edited) Nice gesture from the Lions management. They have released a statement tonight saying that, instead of giving out whistles to the fans if they qualify for the play offs, they will give each season ticket holder a free spliff as a thank you from the riders for supporting them through this difficult season.

Yes its a great gesture so that they keep a spliff upper lip during what is a particularly difficult and testing time Edited September 5, 2023 by scoobydoo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robbee 19 Posted September 5, 2023 OK - So ... If somehow we manage to make the play-offs by gaining the aggreagte BP on Thurs night - if Richie Worrall is suspended for those play-offs if not worse banned - are Lions able to sign a replacement rider for the Play-offs? If so presumably we can build to a total of 39 points and therefore sign a rider c 7.00 in place? Altho does anyone even care any more? Speedway is in a sad state at the moment it seems ... track closures being the saddest of all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How long does it take the lab to get results? May be sorted out before playoffs if his is medication for shoulder, for example. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
