That's a lot of changes to make in one go. I think Ayres has been dealt a bit of a crock. 1st season in the league and the protection has gone. He needs time. I'd stick with him. I hope Kim is advising him and he won't go far wrong

So why wasn't he chosen for the place from the off? I suspect because he couldn't ride this weekend and the powers that be thought Ryan wouldn't travel for a couple of 'guest' rides. If that is the case they don't know the McDonalds very well and could have saved everybody a lot of grief by just explaining to him he wasn't quite what they were looking for, maybe even use difference, and ask just ask him to do a couple of meetings for them. I'm sure Ryan and Gordon would have obliged. Now his confidence has taken an almighty walloping. As if it wasn't low enough already. Anyway Good Luck to Jamie Couzins. It's fair to say non of this is his fault

Agree but for who??

You should look at the Lakeside 2017. Your prayers have been answered

It has to be said. Everyone practices better than they race. I would have thought Kelvin would have known that. Good Luck to Ryan MCDonald. At some point hopefully someone will give this lad the chance he deserves. Good Luck to Jamie Couzins too

Was that the one where there were a few MDL riders making the teams up. If it is, go with an open mind the Semi finals and final at the IOW yesterday were much better than anything I've seen in the Premiership

Correct.

I was there and supported the Lions. He rode between the Start Marshall and the DJ box the officials had to move for him to get through. It's a tight alleyway. It was right to exclude him. End of

They have a Lions supporter texting tonight but they may need a regular from next week

Is he able to ride ? It doesn't always follow that the rider is able.

Meeting preview taken from http://www.leicesterlions.co/_mobile/news.php?extend.30954.1 Gromolski must be ok LEICESTER are at full strength for their mouthwatering Monday trip to Wolverhampton. British champion Danny King is available and makes his club debut at Monmore - and Josh Auty also returns to the side. The Watling JCB Lions are in confident mood following their 48-42 home win over Swindon in the SGB Premiership on Saturday - their first victory at Beaumont Park on opening night since joining British Speedway's top flight in 2014. And while Wolverhampton suffered a 51-41 defeat at Rye House, Lions boss Jim Lynch says nobody can read too much into the opening results of the season. "Obviously we were delighted to earn the win over Swindon and it was an important one for the club with everything that's gone on over the winter," said Lynch. "The thing I've tried to get over to everyone is that we need to concentrate our efforts on winning as many meetings we can at home. "When we head away from home, every single time, I'm just going to tell my riders to enjoy it! "There's no easy place to go to in this league and I personally don't think that piling the pressure on the riders will benefit us at all. "What I do believe is that if they settle down, gel, go out there and enjoy themselves, that's when we may spring a surprise or two! "In my experience, getting on riders backs away from home doesn't help - when they're relaxed and loving their racing as a team, that's when a group can be frightening, in a good way, out there! "Wolverhampton will be disappointed to lose their opening match, but at home they're a totally different prospect. "I looked at their scorecard against Poole in the Elite Shield last week; they won by ten points and that was with the opposition reserve scoring a huge amount of points. "So we know how dangerous Wolves are at Monmore Green, but as I say, I'm giving my riders the freedom to go out there and enjoy themselves. "If we can something then so be it, but if we are unable to do so then we just turn out attentions to the next one!" WOLVERHAMPTON: Freddie Lindgren, Kyle Howarth, Adam Skornicki, Jacob Thorssell, Sam Masters, Max Clegg, Nathan Greaves. LEICESTER: Kim Nilsson, Josh Auty, Kacper Gomolski, Erik Riss, Danny King, Josh Bates, Danny Ayres.

It's a travesty that Swindon have Grondal in the Team when Daryl Ritchings is sitting it out in one league with a team with limited meetings.

They obviously have told you it would have been nice if they'd have told him but heyho

Chris Louis did wonders at Mildenhall. No disrespect to Kevin Jolly and Rob Henry

Lol !!

There's a brick track shop behind and the Refs box is also Brick don't forget

It depends where you want to be. If you want to sit on the bank, I like it there. You would have to bring your own but there is a stand providing seating the length of the Home straight. It will be good to see Kelsey visit the island. He will be sorely missed

For anyone not on FB. Leicester Speedway Supporters Club Annual General Meeting. Thursday 2nd March 8pm Start (Doors open 7.30pm) at The Speedway Bar, Beaumont Park -All Supporters welcome (Only Members can participate in any vote) -2017 Memberships available on the night from 7.30pm -ADDITIONAL COMMITTEE MEMBERS REQUIRED as the Lions enter this exciting new season, both to assist on racenights pre-meeting/during the interval and to bring YOUR activity ideas to the table (PM LSSC Facebook in advance if you are interested, or make your interest known on the AGM night) -Please note that there will NOT be a Bar available on the AGM night

That's one area where Leicester have been a little Lackluster. Looking to the Long term. Let's hope that changes

I don't think it's allowed per se but the absent rule allows for it and I'm not sure getting rid of the absence rule is an option. I agree with the R/R rule it shouldn't happen in this league the lord knows riders are scratching around for rides if the don't DU but the R/R rule had to be brought in because of the absence rule. If that makes sense.
