TTT Posted 7 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 7 hours ago Drew Kemp really has to get his head in the game this year because he's the key rider as to how the Lions season unfolds. Sacrificed Fricke for a strength in depth 1-7 with a view to having a high scoring reserve and if Kemp doesn't perform then basically Leicester have sacrificed Fricke for nothing.

He definitely has the ability, I know he gets a lot of flack with his attitude but he had a decent season last year in my opinion and deserves his place.

Manifesto Posted 5 hours ago Report Share Posted 5 hours ago Good looking Leicester side. They will miss Fricke in the heat 13’s and 15’s but I do think Douglas and Masters are solid enough to give them a good home record 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had to sacrifice Fricke and Becker because of the points limit reduction and keep the majority of last season's team together. Kemp has got the gig ahead of Sedgmen and has publicly admitted he needs to pull his socks up. If he doesnt, Leicester will have other options Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the reserves, I don't see a reason as to why Kemp shouldn't be the strongest reserve in the League. Leicester are my darkhorses.

He failed to finish the equivalent of 3 complete matches due to his inability to count to 4! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I expect what you are saying is that he would have scored a point in some of those races. The way the team is built he was always going to be in it and he did have some good performances during the season. I do agree with what your saying though as we had similar issues with him at Poole.

Doesn't really matter... it's for the Berwick topic, this is about Leicester and his performances for Leicester where he quit 12 times last season where the rest of the team combined numbered 11!

Teromaafan Posted 3 hours ago Report Share Posted 3 hours ago Dickson should impose a small fine on Kemp for not completing 4 laps (excluding genuine engine failures/falls/exclusions). That would change his attitude immediately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kemp's problem always appears to be when he feels he has no chance so gives up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
