Barrow Boy 2

I to bought a season ticket and now cannot attend on the rearranged Somerset date. Annoying really as I studied the fixture list before committing and decided that health permitting I would be able to attend 100%. Hope no more such changes are in the pipeline.

In addition to Ipswich riding there are a further 5 other Championship teams in action including Scunthorpe. Does this mean we will also be without the services of Josh Auty as well as Danny King?

Couldn't have said it any better myself.

First match at home to Swindon King will be missin gas he's riding for Ipswich at Berwick. Harris would have been the ideal replacement but he is in action for Rye House on the same date against Wolves. There is also the Peter Craven Memorial at Belle Vue which no doubt will also prevent Leicester from securing the services of a suitable guest. So all in all not a very good start is it.

Press And practice day is on Wednesday March 29th.

When are the rest of your team going to be announced? The new season is due to start within the next few days. And what about your BNL squad for which no riders have been announced.

He said on FaceBook yesterday that he is made more welcome at IOW and he is happy there but no longer is so at Leicester. He said he is sad to have taken such a step after all the years that he had been involved with Leicester Speedway.

Don't think we need anyone to replace him. Rob Sensical is quite capable to do the job on his own.

Chris Popple resigns as presenter claiming that there is an undercurrent of bad feeling towards him making it untenable to continue.

Just read on Lions Website that the club's new sponsorship has enabled track changes to bends 1 & 2commencing Monday next.

Gomolski just been announced as Leicester's 3rd rider.

You say FL has never finished on the SGP rostrum. Are you sure about this?

According to the BSPA's current list of rider's end of season 2016 rolling averages KK=7.91, FL=7.21 & HA=7.15. The average previously achieved by KK was in 2013 when he ended up with 8.51 but the race format was easier then for heat leaders so a slight reduction to 7.91 is understandable. in 2015 FL achieved 6.11 therefore his current 7.21 is a good improvement which indicates that on current form he is better than KK. In 2016 HA upped his average from 6.45.

Yes he was on but he did not reveal too much. He said that the new owners were a new limited company but did not say who the directors are. He was asked if work would now be done to improve the site but he said that David Hemsley still owned the site and that it was up to him to do any such work. No news on riders, management structure or the intended race night etc. He said it was important to have got to a position of guaranteeing the continuance of the sport and that all other matters could now be worked on.

She meant in The Champions League and yes you are doing ok. Hope you keep it up.

Leicester City achieved their success by doing so over an entire season not just one match. Hardly the same as a lesser rider beating a better rider only once. Hardly the same is it? Both achievements should however be applauded in their own right.

Perhaps it has been done to try and pull the wool over everyone's eyes

I hear Klindt has gone to Poole

Bjerre's so called revised average of 8.22 is his finishing BEL 2015 average multiplied by the 1.4 adjustment applied to all riders who did not achieve a BPL 2016 average.

I presume that no team building will be possible until the t's have been crossed and the i's have been dotted. If it is going to take a while for this to be done then it could be difficult to get a decent team to watch again will it not?

Didn't I read somewhere that Kenneth Hansen had already signed for Polish team?

Exactly

Would be nice to learn a bit more about our New Broom Carl. Any ideas?

Averages have always been calculated on the basis of all riders only having 4 rides. A rider scoring 15 from 5 rides does not average 15, he averages 12 which is the maximum figure that can be obtained. Neilsen's 11.83 is therefore near perfection.

Dave Darcy said on Radio Leicester recently and before the AGM that Leicester would be in the Elite League and would be racing midweek.
