I see all the 'I hope Leicester win' lot are very quiet. As usual when Leicester have a chance it's because they have guests and couldn't have picked better with club asset Ash, former Wolf Ludvig and track specialist Garrity. Stats show they scored 19 between them which I doubt the originals would have got. Lambert wouldn't get anywhere near 6, whilst Masters may well have scored 5 or 6. Wolves were never in trouble and the lions proved they are as poor away as the are at home. However how on earth can we have allowed them to take home a point that they never looked in contention of getting? Blackbird crashing out probably allowed the Lions to get something but yet again the (not so) fast Freddie failed to deliver the goods in the 2 big heats as his bikes looked slower with each race from heat 11 onwards. A dire start and inability to challenge in the last race gave Leicester a chance of a grab and fair play to them for grabbing the chance. They must have thought their luck all came at once in the final race as they were 8 points or more behind from heat 7 onwards. Got to say the track was excellent tonight giving us some excellent racing and some of the lions provided some good moments too. In the bigger scheme of things we have pulled 2 more points clear of the worst at the bottom so we now need to target 6th as a realistic aim. Lakeside are the team we need to target although no doubt Lions fans will still be telling us how much better they are. WOLVES - FREDDIE - started fast and strong and ended weak and slow. 3/5 JACOB - beaten just once. Quick. 4.5/5 RICKY - great night, his battle to deny Doyle and 3rd bend lunges were a joy to watch. Not quick enough in the 15th tho. 4/5 TOBBY - awful night, it's like he has never ridden the track struggling to turn. What is going on ?0.5/5 PK - a fairly decent nights work and would rather have had him in 15.3.5/5 LEWIS - hard to judge what difference he would have made but it's likely we would have sealed the win and chance to steal if he was fit to continue. Hopefully he is OK. 2/5 JOSH - came of age as the only reserve and his heat 12 win was superb. Battled hard and looked quick all night. 3.5/5 MOTM LIONS Doyle - 3 expected quality races but had an awful 1st and shouldn't be being beaten by Wells. 3.5/5 Ludvig - excellent choice of guest and did his job well. 2.5/5 Walasek - absolutely dire and just about beat Bates. Awful. 0.5/5 Wozniak - was looking forward to seeing him at Monmore but is clearly a Pole that can't ride Wolves. Or should that be another Leicester Pole that is rubbish at Wolves. 0.5/5 Swiderski - started very average but got better with each race, came into the fore in the big heats and probably gave Leicester an outside chance. 3/5 Garrity - as expected is off the bike more than he is on it, his ruthless attempt to force Fred off the inside kerb which nearly wiped out Fred and Piotr ended up with only him on the floor - rightly so- yet still felt a need to protest. 8 points is poor for him at Monmore but still a couple more points than Auty would have got. 2.5/5 Morris - yet another excellent guest showing from 'our' Ash. Very much improved this year and yet again scored more than Lambert would have got. 3.5/5

IMHO it's not clever pretending to have engine failures. -

No evidence required. Batch needed to drop his average to fit Ward, and it worked. Blatant as you like. As expected a genuine question from a genuine fan. Not sure this year. And rules changed or altered mid season looks dodgy IMHO. NO it's not, it's just blatant as you can get. -
As already explained but as expected you have selective reading I dislike any team that tries to flaunt the rules, my own team included. I can't be any more consistent about that if I tried. Have watched Wolves have many off years so my support isn't in question, the evidence is there on updates over the years. As stated before if you read my posts properly you won't leave yourself open for looking so silly. I make no apologies for that as you do it all by yourself. Aaah stalker alert. Thought so.

Another day another sycophant rant. Long live the play offs. Without the play offs the season would already be over for 6 teams, including those riding tonight. Some people are just too thick to see the bigger picture. -

Dodgy engine failures, riders suddenly appearing on the FTR list. Less conspiracy more blatant. -

Apologies, just checked the statement back in March. Maybe there was a discussion on the 'rule' on social media but I remember it being mentioned. -

Not seen any changes in ruling on that (but why would I be surprised!). So why the comments by Coventry who replaced the Pole at the start of the season 'before the league starts'?? I never understood how we replaced Sowka and didn't agree with it either. -

Have the rules changed then? Thought you couldn't drop an assessed rider until they did minimum 10 matches? ? Or is this just to suit Swindon? -

Mon the Aces. -
Just how has Auty got to 2nd in the tier list with Garrity ranked below him??? Be interesting to see if he is fit as he is a massive danger at Monmore. Usually guests make the Lions stronger so it could be a interesting one to call. Still think it will be a home win 50-42. Now I have made my prediction don't let me down boys, famous last words

Leicester Lions Vs Kings Lynn Stars - 15 August

bit like I have been saying all along In the real world yes I think they will, however there really are Leicester fans who think they are better than some teams still. -

Plenty of time yet That's the spirit , you keep telling yourself Leicester are a better team. The weakest Stars side that's possible still can get a win. Wake me up if you get anything at Monmore, I might pay you a little more respect then. -

Kings Lynn V Leicester Thurs 13 Aug
stevebrum replied to g13webb's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Surely he was already committed to the SEC before he signed?? Can't blame the guy given he signed mid season. Isn't this the fault of the promotion? -
