  1. Good news that Kennett probably won't fit and I've never been keen on Risager so hope he doesn't either. I do like Robbo though as he's similar to Bomber and always give 100%.
  2. Coventry Elite League prices are pretty similar to yours. There is nearly always a second half with youngsters riding in the MDL too so better value than some tracks. ADULTS £17 OAPS/STUDENTS £13 CHILDREN (UNDER 16) £3 CHILDREN (UNDER 11) FREE Programme: £2.50
  3. Wish I was as confident. In keeping with my usual pessimistic approach though I don't think Bees will win. 50-40 to Wolves.
  4. And like a fool I went as well, but at least it was only a round trip of around 40 miles for me. The dog wasn't very happy that she didn't even get out of the car. Such a shame. I hope the Workington fans have better luck tomorrow at Rye House.
  5. For heaven's sake please no. We've only just stopped Peter York doing this after many complaints from the fans.
  6. My Swindon friends are half way to Coventry so fingers crossed it won't be much.
  7. I've got him in my garage and I'm getting my own back on him for all the lies he said about me giving 'oily massages'. Forgot to add if anyone is interested send me a private message. Rates are £50 per hour. £30 if you bring your own oil. But please no used speedway engine oil this time as it's just too messy.
  8. That has got nothing to do with going up to the E.L. As time has gone on more and more are fans staying away because they're not satisfied with the entertainment on offer but they still get a good crowd compared to other tracks so nothing to worry about yet.

  10. Well, I'm not Robert but at the moment I'd say Leicester is running with a good profit every week and has been since the track opened. I'm sure Robert will answer eventually with all the facts and figures.
  11. Why should I just stick to Coventry? This is a forum for discussion and I can comment on any thread I like, particularly those about Leicester because I live here as you well know. I'm not jumping on any bandwagon either. I'm just damn cheesed off after waiting so long for speedway to return that the majority of racing is dull and processional and not worth paying £28 out of our pension each week to watch. If you're quite happy and enjoy it then carry on but don't get so up tight about others, including many away fans, who have a different opinion to yours.
  12. Whether we're 'such good friends' or not - and I didn't say that actually if you'd care to read my post again - makes no difference to the fact you made a nasty comment about my life. Try reading the rules of the forum again which presumably you did when you joined. There's really no need for you to be so unpleasant and aggressive.
  13. No one is going to shoot you down for enjoying your visits to Leicester but it would be interesting to know how many because you seem to be ignoring that question. So come on Steve you're never one to back down so how many times have you been and which matches? I promise you can have the last word as usual.
  14. You really are unpleasant and there is no need for you to butt in with yet another nasty comment. I know Steve and he never misses the chance to respond so I thought it was strange he'd been on line but ignored my question, which was quite a reasonable one asking how many times he'd been to Leicester and which matches.
  15. So last active at 3pm and now probably going through his calendar to check exactly which matches he went to before he replies.
  16. True. That's how I became a Bees fan after supporting the visiting teams for about three years from 1984. It's shocking to think now that I probably even supported Poole at Brandon.
  17. Okay Steve...I'll take you up on that. How many times have you been to Beaumont Park and which matches?
  18. Perhaps it's just me but I think the forum is fine as it is and doesn't need any killing off of members or to make it a closed board. ( I'll defend the right to keep Pawprint alive to the bitter end.) What is needed though is a sense of humour which sadly some don't seem to possess.
  19. Correct - Anne Hegerty one of the chasers on The Chase. Personally I prefer Paul Sinha, although The Beast is rather attractive as well.
  20. I don't agree with that generalization but in any case Leicester spent 3 seasons in the Premier League and that's when all the opinions of the poor racing were formed so nothing to do with joining the E.L.
  21. Yes that's the one. I mustn't be too critical as I suppose being filmed on the toilet is what young lads do these days. Also Fleece, Caps and Tops all with Speedway Forum embroidered on them. I know because Ray still has his and wears them regularly and I have my Fleece. I keep trying to throw the cap away because it's rather faded now but I think Ray is very attached to it and won't let me.
