If Leicester were to get injuries to key riders would the club fold as how would they get replacements as they have spent months trying to get key riders and are still trying

Anyone know how much Leicester are charging fans for the friendly match against Sheffield ?

There's no rush with the track as they haven't got 2 key riders to make a team worth watching yet. I guess season ticket sales have not gone very well.

I don't see the problem of both Coventry & Leicester racing on Friday nights, two big city's shouldn't rely on each other's fans supporting both clubs to balance the books.

Whatever happened to Linlithgow ?

DH said he had the best track in speedway that produced awesome racing ? Last time changes were made it was laughable shaving 12inches off the entrance to the corner, the straights needs shortening by 3 or 4 metres to make any difference. Will speedflash come on and say what his plans are to improve ?

Does he get paid or is he another of DH free helpers ? You say it would be interesting if he comes if he has to pay, you should be more worried if the hardcore regulars will bother coming as I know a couple who have only missed 2 matches since it reopened who said they have lost interest in Leicester speedway that is more of a worry. I think Leicester will struggle on and off track

When die hard fans are walking away and those in charge still take no notice the writing is on the wall that the sport in this country is all but finished as a professional sport.

I disagree I think a lot taken off is because of outside demands

Both Cvs & cook are big players in the fall of British speedway.

No they just wanted a British rider who raced in Britain

I think it's needs a decent speedway track before a football pitch.

Cook is not the brightest of people and his remark didn't surprise me.

Leicester can't be selling many or even any season tickets yet as who in there right mind would buy one not knowing the team.

Cook is not the brightest of people I have met, Him calling those who keep speedway alive idiots is surely classed as bringing the sport into disrepute and he should face a big fine and possible suspend his promotors license.

not completely gem but I know you have missed me Like tmw rightly said what is the difference between little football clubs on sky and Leicester speedway ? nobody has mentioned both sky commentators and there views of the track which is very negative.

I always thought Swindon was a dark place to race but they are on sky regular, So if Leicester were top of the league and had super tai they would still do only one visit,I don't buy the fact it's just to do with floodlights.

Who Doesn't ride in ENGLAND

It's a shame that the Team GB manager stopped his love affair for the Aussies. Only 11 days for DH to reveal his team then

Are you talking about the clueless person who is in charge of Team GB selections aswel. There is no loyalty in speedway it's all about money

Regional awards ? He doesn't ride in the UK People shouldn't blame the bbc for ignoring tai or speedway because the blame is solely down to the promotors who have made it a minority sport. Who would tai come before on the list of 12 finding it hard to put him in the top 12

I think unpopular is an understatement. Also Why do sky Only show One Leicester match per season, does that not say something. I think your right other promotors will be wishing Leicester were not part of the EL

Not sure I would want ashes of a family member placed on a building site.

Couldn't think of anything worse than batch & masters at Leicester,. DH needs a big crowd puller or this could be the end of the lions.
