Talking of Drew Kemp, is he now Argentinian? Saw him competing in the Argentina championships

He could be the mascot 

Championship fixtures were not yet received as of Saturday 10th January!!

I'm with you on that. Think Stewart has played a blinder here by sacrificing Fricke for an all round 1-7. Other Teams may have Superstar No.1's but they've also got very long tails to go with them, Who could be found wanting most weeks. Leicester on the other hand have a rock solid pairing across the board in every Heat.

Top stars bring people in it’s just the slow death of the sport that makes it seem that they don’t. Remove them and you’ll see a further jump in the drop in attendance. One very vocal critic of the current state of the sport said he’d turn up if his favourite top star was in attendance, no matter how repetitive his appearances.  What has been the feedback from your 50 family & friends about attending regularly? 

I like the look of this team, very solid without the top rider as number one, Fricke has gone to Kings Lynn but because of that they have weaknesses lower down, this could be the season Leicester win the title.
