isnt it time that DH spoke up about IF changes are going to be made to the track or not before the club lose more fans

So leicester are in real trouble then.

Tina, how can you defend both clubs, belle vue have had all winter as have leicester, both tracks needed work, both promotions failed and let the fans down and the riders, ask belle vue fans and ask a large majority of leicester fans and you would get the same answer, racing what racing. I think there would be a few people interested in buying leicester if it was up for sale at the right price, its got a great chance of success with the right person in control and would have massive support if the product was right.

leicester and belle vue are both letting there fans down with tracks not fit for racing.

So are you going to tell us what was said in the reply ?

you can say moaning others will say speaking sense about the glum future of leicester speedway unless changes are made sooner than later.

you clearly state you dont go for the racing so i have no idea why you would want the track changed anyway if that is the case

This i am looking forward to reading

You dont seem the brightest spark but surely if crowds are droppng as much as they are and many say its because of the lack of racing, what would you do then carry on until it is a few happy tina,s (tmw) left who dont go for the racing and leicester close and lets not forget newport,there support went down and they sadly closed down,glasgow is struggling because there crowds have taken a big dip. Many of us know it should of been done over the winter, but to save leicester speedways future i think it needs sorting now, i and many others want to see leicester do well and see great racing each week but this wont happen because of the current track shape, Leicester has massive potential as its a sporting city but people wont pay and support rubbish each week. How many people would go to a restaurant every week if the food is really crap ? Saying that I bet tmw and neb would still go as they would say its not about the food

its the shape that is the main problem and yes the shale they are using is not bonding in well, i am surprised that all the problems were not sorted during the mild winter months. If i was DH i would close it down for a month and reshape it before i lose anymore hardcore fans and put the club at risk.

this did make me laugh so funny

Someone mentioned the same question a few weeks ago, I am sure that somebody will give us the answer on here, its a great cause and one i support so i await to see how much was raised.and handed over to the air ambulance by leicester speedway.

very interesting reading, doesnt that make the poole track fail the rules, not been there for a long time but isnt the pit gate as you exit the bend ?I think the drains are very close to the kerbs but it would be the cheaper option to move them than lose regualr fans and many away fans from wanting to visit knowing the problems.

Believe it or not i am not anti DH but i am annoyed that after last seasons shocking racing due to the track shape, he failed to correct the problem during the winter and in so putting the club at risk, some may not think so but even the hard core of fans will turn to other things sooner than later and some may think its negative but its not its a reality if the track isnt changed. mick, i find it amusing that you dont want to be in my circle however you seem you agree with me

The shape is the problem and banking would make no difference imho, its a real shame DH didnt model his new track like the one at kings lynn

all reports by those who went last night said the lack of racing and crowd levels were down again, when will DH take action as it will be so sad to see leicester shut like newport due to lack of fans.

you have to put abit of blame on ronnie russell, he opened the gates to jens rassmussen and peter schorak and the rest followed which limited the brits, then the end of the british league juniors,also national junior league that produced riders and also grasstrack brought in a number of riders. you only have to look at promotors over the last 20 years, they seem to rather give an unknown overseas rider a chance than a brit

So much has been said by home fans aswel as away fans over the last 12 months that it should have its on thread to debate it rather than take over match day threads even though the biggest talking points on match day threads is the non excistance of passing on a track that has one line and nearly impossible to over take unless someone makes a mistake. So why did DH Not build the track like the one at blackbird road, after all he had a blank canvas ?

I thought it was a great GP and a superb win for greg.

Doesnt he have a tattoo of the aussie flag or did i read it wrong and its the st georges flag ?

Oh you mean the one who was wearing an aussie shirt cheering on the aussies in the world cup and helping them aswel.

Ronnie russell & others should hang there heads in shame for bringing british speedway down this low at international level and the future of us brits having a team in 5 years looks very bleak.

Well i only saw pratt myself, never saw anyone else all day and nor did the source who went walkabouts in the pits.

I think your find sky will insist on at least one brit
