16 hours ago when you posted "If you knew what I know about our female boss you wouldn't like her much"

No, its a public response to clarify the clubs position.

No.

Dave I was sorry to hear about your condition that means you "are not sure how long I can stand for when needed, maybe 5 mins or 30 mins" as per your message to the General Manager on 7th March 2024. Being able to stand for a long time is a key atribute of a safety steward. As you put it later in the same message "I'm giving you a get out quick clause I won't complain if I don't get a job". Could we please hold you to your latter statement?

Here you go Rob. This is how the track looked at 3pm on Saturday afternoon when i left.

As an alternative you could always stream the meetings on Lions TV

May I helpfully suggest Leicester is closer and all Panthers fans would be made most welcome.

Your original post was that we had heard nothing which as they previous couple of posts have pointed out is not the case.

Err, announcements have been made, http://www.leicesterspeedway.com/news.php?extend.32433 LEICESTER will switch to Sunday afternoon racing for their home fixtures in the National Development League this season. Fixtures for the third tier are currently in the process of being finalised, but the club can confirm the Lion Cubs have scheduled matches at the Pidcock Motorcycles Arena, Beaumont Park for Sundays at 3pm. The move has been made in order to provide maximum rider availability both for the Cubs and their opponents bearing in mind Championship commitments. Skipper Joe Thompson has a Championship team place with Plymouth, who will be racing at home predominantly on Saturday evenings, and Max James is racing for Edinburgh who have various Saturday away matches. Another key reason for the switch is that it opens up greater opportunities to make use of the new mini-track for second half events featuring 250cc and 125cc riders, which would otherwise be constrained by time on a Saturday evening. Leicester’s first home NDL fixture of the season is expected to take place at the Pidcock Motorcycles Arena, Beaumont Park on Sunday April 7 (3pm). The club will also be staging a round of the new National League Riders Development Series individual competition. This will take place on Sunday August 4 (3pm).

Should make the play offs. I dont think there will be many away wins in the League, except when the top teams go to Birmingham. Therefore it comes down to bonus points and our solid team are well equiped to pick up the bonus point over home and away legs. Once in the playoffs I think we will give a good account of ourselves.

LEICESTER supporters again have the chance to show their support for the Lion Cubs – with your name on a team race-suit! Last year’s successful initiative is being repeated, and for just £30 you can have your name incorporated into the 2024 race-suit of a Cubs rider, to be worn each time the team takes to the track. The 2024 package includes: *Your name on a 2024 Lion Cubs race-suit as part of a collage; *Entry into a draw to win a rider’s suit at the end of the season; *A signed photo of the rider whose suit your name appears on; *A thank-you in the 2024 Lion Cubs programmes acknowledging your individual support of a rider. It’s really easy to get involved – just e-mail John Harvey at john.harvey@leicesterspeedway.com

No you should have predicted Vinnie and Tom....

Joe Thompson and Arran Butcher are the first 2024 Cubs announced by the club this morning.

They have to finish the Premiership Final before the Championship final can take place and likewise the NDL final can only take place once the Championship final has taken place. I believe the reasoning behind this is that they dont want a rider to get injured in a lesser final and then be unable to ride in a more senior final.

Because the cut of for league meetings is the end of August with KO Cup finals and play offs in September.

What improvements would you like to see?

The brief was for a contemporary, modern, fresh logo with a good balance between the text and image. Its looking forward to the future, rather than backwards to the past. The key was it had to appeal to a younger audiance.

Appologies, I misread your original post. I obviously didnt have enough coffee yesterday.

So what's a 28 days ban for witholding services if its not a rule to stop riders messing clubs around?

Loan fees are still paid.

That is not the case.

Yes if the rising star is on the scheme. The rider does not have to accept a rising star offer, but if he rejects it then they remove themselves from the scheme for the entire season.

It is the case.
