Glennylion Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 (edited) Lionking, By my calculations that gives you 40.63.(maybe wrong though) I think good enough would be Nemo and Bjerre, especially if the track changes suit more racing than currently/previously. I also think that Graverson may get a go at 7. Previously I had seen comments that crowd favourites would be retained. Presumed and hoped that was Nemo but can only think of Graverson or Bjerre. I like Neilson and if we are premier still then would hope he has a place. Fisher looks a shoe in though in either Elite or Premier, probably why Nemo has gone (if he has ) Edited November 1, 2012 by Glennylion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 If Leicester go E.L. I might just drag myself down there so I'd better start saving my pennies as soon as the decision is made because I won't be giving up on Coventry. I know there are some fans who are not keen but it makes sense to me with local derbies against Wolverhampton, Birmingham and Coventry on offer whereas the nearest track in the P.L. is Sheffield. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackson2 Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 I think you will find that Nemo has gone(shame) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wandersome Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 I think you will find that Nemo has gone(shame) I agree it will be a shame not to have Nemo in the team but i'm not 100% sure he would have cut the mustard in the EL for us. Probably best remembered as a PL hero. Having applied for the EL that's surely where we will be next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 And Peterborough of course!! True. I just didn't count Peterborough as being in the Midlands area because I hate the journey from Leicester. Great track though - I love it.

I'd rather see him than 'baby' in the team. If it's true i'll be sad to see him go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justathought Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 He might be signing for Leicester in the EL and Sheffield in the Premier ............Who knows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the Leicester and Heathens clubs on the verge of passing Birmingham by in the future it would be no trouble for a trip to either.......

If it's true i'll be sad to see him go I agree with what you said though i do like Lasse as much as Nemo. My point with Nemo was that he'd be probably be more fondly remembered by Lions fans as our No1 when we were a premier league team than he will if he carries on riding for us in the EL and becomes a 4.5-5.5 rider.

Have I missed something? Are we we actually going EL next year or am I reading it wrong? As for Nemo leaving, (some say he's already gone) is this true as well?

I think if we are pl then Nemo will ride for us and if we go Elite then its Lakesides decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haza Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 I think the only way the Lions will race in the EL is if one of the 2012 teams drop out as Sky money x 11 means less money for the other ten clubs and if they all return I think they will close ranks on Leicester .
