More over exaggerated hyperbole on the BSF? Surely not!

Definitely, it was a racing incident nothing more.

I'd love to know what the excuses are for this performance again Lions?

Mind you most teams seem to he beaten before they even get on the track there.

Awful lions performance

Got to be the most pointless British Speedway season ever.

This will be the Grand Final as well.

Exactly what ive said tonight.Why have Leicester assembled a team that are incapable of riding at one of their main rivals track. Has to be poor management.

I think it's more the case that we've assembled a team that we can aafford. Capable enough almost anywhere but BV is the step too far in terms of set up and ability for all but one or two.

It certainly seems that tonight has seen the end of the season. If Leicester can't keep withing touching distance of Belle Vue at the National Speedway Stadium, who can?

Like already quoted. A pointless season full of injuries and boring racing.

A short drawn-out season ...

So McDiarmid never ridden the track before but scored better then 6 of the Leicester riders.

Whereas, last year's SEVEN team league, with the four play off teams pretty much known in June, was captivating....😁

Absolutely, whilst it was good to win it for the first time in 30 years, the prize becomes more and more pointless as the years go by.

Good for him, but I was commenting on the fact it's a step too far for the Leicester side. It's not like they've not all been around long enough to crack riding at BV, but Douglas apart none of them seem capable. So if he can ride it why can't the rest?

Another waste of time on a Monday night in Manchester. These so called professional teams turn up and treat the paying customers to a procession of crap , race after race . To all these on here who criticise Belle Vue , have a look at your own jokers. Okay on their own comfortable surroundings, dog sh*t otherwise. At least Belle Vue are professional everywhere and don’t short change anyone.

It looks like (Dougy apart) the Lions riders just don’t have the correct set up or maybe even the right engines for BV. 
Masters especially.
