40-38

He started slowly off 15 and had to get past his team mate before he could really make any impression. I thought he'd blown it on the back straight before the final bend. The shout that went up from the crowd was a great thing to behold too.

Seems to be more material on as well over the last couple of meetings.

Stuck behind Masters for 2 laps as well.

Some good racing at Leicester tonight, Fricke from 15m in heat 10 was brilliant.

If we have to have a 6 team top league then surely the play offs need to be scrapped.

I can only speak for myself of course, but I would be happier with 5 man teams and one league. I've never really cared if the top stars are riding, it's not the names that make me watch speedway, it's the atmosphere, noise, chaos and racing. I don't care if it's Bartosz Zmarzlik and Brady Kurtz racing or Simon Lambert and Drew Kemp. You make your own stars of the riders you watch.

Howarth proving you can pass at Leicester if you're willing to attack the track.

Come on the Lions! Excellent performance.

Back now.

Could be because Leicester are not a "lower order" team?

Its taken us until that last heat to look like we're not fighting to keep the bikes straight. Ipswich look very controlled and that's been the big difference.

What's his excuse against the rest then?! 😁

Well he doesn't do it in a Lions jacket!

Masters and Douglas don't go well normally, Fricke can be hit and miss. When we win there we usually have a standout, this year Becker and last year Lawson.

Lions riders never really like Foxhall and it shows.

Would have been nice if that information had been released though, right? Rather than having to rely on a friend of a forum member about 3 days late. I do wonder what he was doing on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday that wasn't working. Next time I hurt myself I think I'll bypass A&E and head straight to a Polish doctor, they seem to be able to work miracles in no time at all. Maybe he can do an advert for some more sponsorship money? "Last week I hurt my wrist and was unable to ride a bike, but thanks to the miracle cureall of Dr Złoty I can now score maximums and win a GP!" 😁

No, I'm sure that was an unnamed 17 year old 😉

It would apply in my case. Same with Boxhall, Worrall et al. I might be persuaded if they prostrate themselves at the feet of the fans in apology and pay for testing before every meeting, but none of those I've mentioned seem remotely apologetic about being utter idiots.

If Morris ends up anywhere near BP that's me out I'm afraid. I'd expect nothing less than a humbling apology to all Leicester fans before I'd even waste my water on him.

Point is, if all they're racing for is easy money and no pressure people can't complain if he gets a roasting for seemingly picking his meetings. That's something I'd level at a lot of riders, not just Kurtz BTW.

In which case why bother with league racing at all? Why doesn't he quit BV and go for personal glory if its more important to him. Be honest.
