The area where the Arena is isn't called Marsh Mills for nothing! And they get a touch of Pooleitis when the tides in!

Nick Morris has some interesting comments in the match report on the Lions website http://www.leicesterspeedway.com/_mobile/news.php?extend.31785.1

Thanks. That's very helpful!

If I come over to Perry Barr to see this meeting and park on the One Stop car park, which is the best way to walk to the track? I've looked on Google but that's not much good because everywhere looks like one big building site. Presumably due to the Commonwealth Games.

I agree. I'm about 4 miles from Beaumont Leys and it's raining now.

Sorry if I misunderstood you but I take the opposition to mean fans, riders and hangers on and management!

It's certainly true that, initially, the track had a reputation for drying out quickly after heavy rain. I don't know if Glyn's attempts to alter the track shape to improve the racing interfered with the drainage.

The supporters presumably live a little nearer!

The match being called off has nothing to do with Leicester City v Man City in the Charity Shield being on tv or the Speedway GP being on tv then!

Was the same as Saturday. Lions outgated for most of the evening. Only 3 race wins and only one lucky heat advantage says it all.

Lions outgated for most of the evening. Simple as that.

It's a poor selection all togther really.

Your going to cover some miles doing that!

Got my tickets for the Southern Tour!

Spot on. Three track gradings and waterings, including one in the interval, and all over in 90 minutes is ok by me. Will have to see how Ans goes but, like you, I suspect he is no longer a No. 1 rider.

I live in hope!

Looks to me if the plan is to replace Proctor. Bates then drops to reserve and gets his confidence back and, hopefully, this makes Lions stronger, especially away from home.

Kings Lynn have a guest replacement for Proctor tonight.

He's stood down from Kings Lynn as well.

Ty Proctor has stood down from the team. PROCTOR STANDS DOWN - Leicester Lions Speedway - Official Website (leicesterspeedway.com)

More room for manoeuvre than I thought then. Shame we didnt keep Connor Mountain at No. 2.

If Proctor and Bates go can anyone explain how many points the Lions would have left for their replacments?

Danny King is Poole's skipper.

Howarth injured wrist yesterday. Not riding for Sheffield tonight.
