Roger Jacobs 554 Posted June 23, 2023 A very handy result for the Bates franchises to keep them both fully involved in the play-off picture. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iainb 5,018 Posted June 23, 2023 What a match! First time I've been to Sheffield in about 10 years and to be honest I was expecting a bit of a dull affair as it's not the track it used to be... Wrong! Lions were electric from the gate with the only real opposition coming from Jack Holder and Musielak who was always dangerous when behind if a little wild at times. One thing I can't understand... Bomber was clearly the slowest rider out there, riding slower than a slow thing yet unbelievably he was passing people and then managing to stay in front... when he wasn't clipping the fence and falling off, it was quite amazing to watch. Track probably just needed a tiny bit more water on it and it would have been perfect and I wouldn't have come home with a Tiger tan! Any advice on parking as it was the usual bore getting out of the car park... which I didn't mind so much in the past but now I'm paying £3 for that privilige it's not so much fun, even after an away win Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There also is a paid for Car Park near Hillsborough corner (not sure if its free at night) - its probably a 5-10 minute walk to the stadium from there. Leicester looking a good solid team last night - should have won by more! Edited June 23, 2023 by GeneralMelchett 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Charlieboy 412 Posted June 23, 2023 Best team won on the night but Sheffield must be having serious doubts about Adams form. Good rider but way off where he should be this season. Don’t know if it’s hand injury or his bikes but something is not right. The way it’s going at the moment he will get a spell at reserve which could be a good thing for him and the team Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FromBendThree 145 Posted June 23, 2023 Leicester have really thrown a spanner in the works. Belle Vue. Sheffield, Wolverhampton and Ipswich seemed from the off destined for play offs. Now Leicester have muscled in and a big name will miss out. Makes for exciting league. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
