We're prone to "sun delays" at Leicester though unfortunately 😎

How very 2026 a rider education programme 😂. I prefer old school, as I said earlier a punch on the nose wouldn't have been out of order! But more seriously, when was the last time a referee excluded somebody for dangerous or dirty riding? It is still a rule but just no used: 012.1.14 Foul, Unfair or Dangerous Riding The Referee shall immediately disqualify any rider who they consider indulges in foul, unfair or dangerous riding. If, in the opinion of the Referee, such conduct produces an advantage to the rider involved or affects the chances of one or more riders, the Referee may stop the heat and order a re-run. In certain circumstances the Referee may disqualify a rider for foul, unfair or dangerous riding from the remainder of the meeting. In this case no replacement facilities are allowed for the remainder of a team meeting. A Referees decision to declare a heat completed, or disqualify a rider from a meeting for foul, unfair or dangerous riding shall be deemed a statement of fact and no protest or appeal is permitted. Leicester 2 minutes on at 19:28, tapes up 19:30 👍

Kerr may have ridden himself into contention

4 points from 3 Foxes riders tonight!

Kye Thomson is the only bright light in this Northamptoningham team, he'll be at number 1 when the new averages come out I'd have thought... the only thing this team is missing is Nigel Tolley's wonga 🤑

I'm pretty sure they announced over the PA that the ref was looking at a video replay.

A punch on the nose can often rectify those kind of moves 🥊

Nicolai Klindt... what an embarrassment 😳

I came in at 19:15 and there was no queue An Amalagoto... or whatever they were called? Or a Mickey Mouse watch? 😂

Doesn't help when you don't start until 7:50... a dose of British Speedway reality being served up tonight.

What are you talking about?!? I saw Mark Lemon moving oil drums around in the car park with my own 2 eyes 👀 😂

Meeting being run with the usual ruthless British Speedway efficiency! 19:40 and it ain't started!

BSN Bingo: How many times will the word "tassels" be said tonight? I'm going for 16!

Another 5hite track on Saturday for the main event then 👌

90 seconds and you'd have been fine 👍

I suspect @PhilTheAce is awaiting his full page apology in the Speedway Star 😂

He did say Phil Morris was still in post as Premiership CEO though... there's been neither sight nor sound from him since the start of the season 🤷‍♂️

Foxes to crash out of the cup... Is it too late to re-brand Northampton Lambs?

18 point max from Captain Klindt last night so that makes it 52-38... if it's not too cold 😉

Difficult to see how the Foxes win with that team!

They're doing better than I expected actually, with some close(ish) scores away without them ever really threatening to win a match. What hasn't helped them is the fragility of the league and a club's inability to cover adequately for injury, this has been shown over the last few years with the loss of Doyle x 2, Sayfutdinov, DJ Woffy etc. etc. the strength in depth of the league is just not there when one of the "big" points scorers gets injured.

I thought Kurtz was on his way during the winter the longer he wasn't announced by the Aces... I wonder if that was ever on the cards (especially with Lemon being involved)?

Ignored 👍😁

Broken ankle

That's really difficult to know isn't it... weren't they asking for people to tell them where they'd come from on socials? I saw a fair few familiar faces, riders, officials etc. And a lot of Bees and Panthers... not to mention Witches. It'll be interesting to see what the crowd is this Thursday, especially with it also being on BSN.
