Gemini Posted January 20, 2013 Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 Nothing is happening though John. All the team signed up, season ticket news out, fixture list not available until next month. Just waiting for the middle of February when the track is being changed. If it doesn't expect it to get interesting in here again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king Posted January 20, 2013 Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 And the fat Greek wonders why he gets into so many arguments when he goes to away tracks. With an attitude like his it's obvious why. Shadders fat. Bloody Hell, the rest of us better get on a diet. Perhaps you should change your name to Bean Pole if you consider Shadders to be fat.

Hamish McRaker Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 I heard something similar, and the Lions bit in this week's Star suggests a major sponsor is being sought. If Elliotts has gone we are desperately unlucky with team sponsors. Also makes me wonder whether we would lose the Elliott buildings in the stadium. Bring your own bucket next season, folks, or contribute to the track watering perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wandersome Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Next seasons fixtures are on the bspa website. Interesting that we have weekend meetings either side of the speedwayseries meeting (which is a tuesday night). A busy start to the year.

Long Eye Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 any elite or premier league riders there having a practice and did leicester put up the air fence today ? I was lazy today and didn't get there until about 1. About 3 PL riders there, Kerr, Schram and Starke. No the air fence was not used, that was put into storage at the end of the season.

Gemini Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 The track was good and plenty of riders were there. Blimey! They must have one hell of a good drainage system. Shame Blaby District Council can't do something similar with Braunstone Lane East which is closed again today as the road is flooded.

I think its not showing respect to the riders safety, they have an air fence they should use it, after all they are charging £40 a go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukrossifan Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 I think its not showing respect to the riders safety, they have an air fence they should use it, after all they are charging £40 a go Here we go again, any excuse to have a go! How many Premier League tracks have even got an Air Fence IN the season ?? If you bothered to go to the Practice Sessions you'd know that when the riders are going round on their own, virtually all the falls are slide offs almost laying the bike down and never end up anywhere near the fence! Try saying well done for getting the track into great rideable condition after all the snow, frost and heavy overnight rain! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try saying well done for getting the track into great rideable condition after all the snow, frost and heavy overnight rain! Quite right. It's a practice/training session and insured as such - it's certainly not racing, The cost of repairing a damaged air fence is way more than you could imagine, it's not just an Elastoplast job, My guess is that it's use for such sessions would make the cost to riders way over the £40 mark, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
