Lions to win by about 12. If Sedgy and Klindt bring their gating gloves it could even be closer based on their record at the track. The Foxes are at Belle Vue earlier in the day, will that take it’s toll?

Etheridge at BV earlier in the day, which is a strange choice, so Sedgy should be fresh at least.

Yes, strange. A former Aces rider, but on current form …..? It is a reduced facility because of the reasons for NKI’s absence but Jye will  not have been the first rider they approached. As we all know, it is difficult to get anyone to work on a Bank Holiday Monday 😀

Should be straight forward for the Lions but then I thought that against Birmingham last season and they turned us over... could Northamptoningham do the same?

He blows hot and cold at Leicester anyway. Not many options on other rider availability, particularly at this late hour. Unless they can persuade Zach Cook to travel back with them it looks like R/R.

In the right mood Klindt and Zagar could have got 40 between them... or 2!

Flint would probably be the better bet over Cook

Radio silence from Northamptoningham regarding Zagar... they catch on fast 😁

Yet again British speedway delivers another embarrassment, apart from Lindsey and the R/S in the form of Luke which is required a shocking top level team, god knows how many people will be excited going through the turnstiles to witness this. 

Northamptoningham haven't brought the thousands of fans that they had last week with them 😂
