I am simply lost for words. This is a low point for British speedway. The bates have said they moved us up because there business model is more suitable for the prem ..and what's that exactly? Having a track that has a drop of rain, had to be dug up and relayed, bladed, watered and god knows what else to simply not even be able to run a final. I am gutted . Speedway is my number 1 sport but this has hit a low point. The bates, BSPA and who ever else is involved should be hanging there heads in shame. I am 26 years old and missed out on the title win in 2018 for personal reasons so this Friday was a big moment for myself and the club. Now it's ruined. Well done to the pirates ! Proper run club who are in it to win and will run a meeting properly. Gutted and disappointed.

Would be a great team but I imagine the RS rule will be scrapped. -
God what a mess. From a Leicester point of view it's a tad embarrassing with all these delays. I must say though that if it rains we cannot do anything about it. I think the track is that wet and been dug up that much it's just a complete cluster f#ck now. So it needs atleast 3/4 days of dry weather and of being sorted from scratch. For me also I was mega excited for this final. I've just started going back to Leicester after a 5/6 years away and to reach the final was a big moment for me to witness. Now the spark has completely gone due to it been delayed again and again. It just seems like I want to get this meeting out the way now regardless of the result . God knows when they will hold the meeting..I'm guessing Friday or Saturday but both have there downfalls for different reasons . I just want the season finished and whoever wins who cares. Just want to see speedway ran properly and not as a side project .

That is highly possible and something that didn't even cross my mind. Trying to sell a house now must be hard work now. Let's hope they see sense and let Peterborough have the land . Wouldn't it be wonderful to have speedway win for once

Yes it is. Think there was only 3 rain offs last season is Poland with teams riding on a Thursday so hopefully doesn't have too much of an impact -
Similar team to last year's then I'm guessing?

I hope so too. When I was told my first reaction was a laugh and 'yea right'. But from what I was told it's nearly done if not signed and sealed. But again , il believe it when I see it. -

Now you've said it, I have also been told something similar. Don't know how good the source is though. -
I don't quite understand this howarth missing saga. Why the hell is he getting married at this time of year when there's speedway on! Surely he must know that speedway never goes to plan in Britain. Leicester are just playing with rules it sounds like. Poole have bent the rules plenty of times before along with many other clubs. It's not the club's fault it's the people that make up the rules that should be questioned.

My prediction from a lions fan. I'm going with hope rather than expectation. I think we will do a decent job at Poole, not win but atleast keep it semi competitive for the second leg. Think it will be 52-38 in favour of the pirates. Ben Cook will be the difference tonight as a 4th heat leader. I expect Joe Thomson to be battling hard but struggling for points with clegg getting an extra ride. Nicholls at 4 is a interesting one for sure...This works if Dan Thomson can produce the goods like he did last time but that's a big ask for an inexperienced 18 year old. If Dan can get 5/6 points then that's a decent return for him especially at 5. I hope this is a great final for both sets of supporters. Either way I'm so delighted with Leicester's season finishing top and the cubs potentially doing the double it's been a great year for Leicester. Top of the league means we were the best through the season, even though a we don't get a trophy it doesn't matter that much to me, play offs and finish top are as good as eachother. Good luck pirates and even better good luck for the lions!!
