What a match! First time I've been to Sheffield in about 10 years and to be honest I was expecting a bit of a dull affair as it's not the track it used to be... Wrong! Lions were electric from the gate with the only real opposition coming from Jack Holder and Musielak who was always dangerous when behind if a little wild at times. One thing I can't understand... Bomber was clearly the slowest rider out there, riding slower than a slow thing yet unbelievably he was passing people and then managing to stay in front... when he wasn't clipping the fence and falling off, it was quite amazing to watch. Track probably just needed a tiny bit more water on it and it would have been perfect and I wouldn't have come home with a Tiger tan! Any advice on parking as it was the usual bore getting out of the car park... which I didn't mind so much in the past but now I'm paying £3 for that privilige it's not so much fun, even after an away win

yes... looking at the Met Office radar and the rain that is about looks to be fizzling out and hopefully heading south of Sheffield

weather might win this one by the look of the rainfall radar!

Great win for the Lions 'B'... at the risk of being a keyboard warrior, it's hard to imagine your previous manager making those team changes and also pulling Bowtell from his 2nd ride for a tac sub... play offs here we come

What's the big 'B' on the race jackets... Leicester Lions 'B' team?

Let's hope he brings a friend along Has Troy Batchelor been riding at all this season?

it was poor discretion

Yes Christina But he did have 5 minutes to change his bike setup and then went out and won it FTG

They had completed 2 full laps... the reds didn't come on until bend 2 of lap 2... are you Christina in disguise Plus... there was no way Artem was going to catch and pass our boys, especially with the way the track was in heat 1

Doesn't really matter whether he did or not really, ref should have awarded it

I don't know that he threw it down and deliberately stayed down... but the ref should definitely awarded it

Right... just read so many negative comments on here tonight for what was a perfectly good speedway meeting, with some good racing once the track settled, some questionable refereeing decisions and very nearly another super heat. Eurosport is what it has always been... it ain't never gong to change and the sooner people realise this the better for all of us that have to read the same old crap on every televised thread. Apologies to @arnieg

Think you must have been watching the wrong match

Great win for the Lions! A really good comeback from Christina and the boys though full credit to them

Don't know... I thought I'd seen it somewhere

Ah, the caption on the screen said it was IRR... is it not allowed after a certain heat?

I must say i don't think I've ever read so much crap on one thread... and I've seen the Peterborough 2023 thread!

IRR WTF? Kye Thomson?

Bomber will guest for them... it's the least he can do

Christina is making up for MPT for the Stars! She's on a Max

Some decent racing now the track has dried out a little. TJ working hard for his points

Sheffield?

Can a man not make a mistake?

BREAKING NEWS: news is just coming in that Eurosport are to launch a full root and branch inquiry into the goings on during commentary today as a man made a mistake. Insiders say that no stone will be left um-er-turned to make sure nothing like this happens ever again... more news when we get it.

OK, Can we all just like this post and then we can all move on with the meeting tonight... Yes if you've got Sky Q you've also got the Discovery+ app with Sports Yes Eurosport is a joke Yes the camera angles are crap Yes Tatum is Good/Crap (delete as appropriate) Yes they missed that pass Yes King's Lynn is not as good a race track as it used to be, because of the surface Yes why aren't they televising the Belle Vue match (every week!) Yes Buster is Satan/God, again delete as appropriate etc. etc.
