ukrossifan Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 It's funny how, although there are still some watching from a distance, people have stopped complaining about the track whilst the Lions have been winning at home. spot on , and those who choose to watch from afar and argue the tired old points will also have missed the additional passing seen (during the unbeaten home league season) since the dirt was changed to the 'Scunthorpe' style dirt 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobblytriers Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 From the Lions website, looks like they're fully intent on joining the EL, that is if the others let them join in - Elite League Application The time is drawing ever closer to knowing whether our application to join the Elite League will be accepted. With the Annual General Meeting due to take place over a three day period starting on Friday 16th November we should be in a position to know which league the team will be operating in next season. Hopefully we will be able to share the news with you shortly after the AGM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH I'm most surprised to see you actually admit to that . now if you could get some of the other blinkered Lions fans who post on Leicester threads to adopt a similar attitude maybe some of the more open minded leicester fans may come back . that would make the threads a lot more interesting than just the 6 or so regulars who post the same defensive and boring rubbish every time someone posts with a different view .

I take it that by 'open minded' you mean 'anti promotion and always critical' and by 'defensive' you mean people who have a different opinion to you that they genuinely hold and are genuinely happy with the way Leicester Speedway is run overall and accept that not 100% is perfect but the vast majority is as good or better than at many other tracks and proud to be Lions fans . If you can't accept that some people don't hold your consistently critical view then perhaps you should do what you did most of the season when we were winning every week .... And not frequent this Forum. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wandersome Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 From the Lions website, looks like they're fully intent on joining the EL, that is if the others let them join in - I suppose whether others will let them in is the thing. I have to say it will show the sad state of British Speedway if Leicester are effectively held back from being where they want to be and where they need to be for their long term future (i.e racing and developing rivalries at the highest level against the close city rivals such as Coventry, Birmingham & Wolverhampton) for the short term gain that splitting the SKY money only 10 ways will give the 10 tracks currently there. If it doesn't happen then my opinion is that it shows again, only too clearly, why Speedway needs someone or something in charge that is able to look at the greater good of the sport over the greater good of the individual promoters and the current crop of half-arsed companies sucking the last drops from a one great sport (such as GoSpeed).

Mick. dont leicester have to pay a lump of cash to join the elite and then after a year in the league the following season they are entitled to a share of the sky money? i could be wrong anyone know any different?

I'm not sure what the terms are but surely in these times when tracks are struggling all over country the top brass should doing whatever it needs to in order to nurture teams such as Leicester that are actively trying to improve themselves and have the resources and backing, crowd wise at the very least, to make the move and be a veritable asset to the league long term. If no Sky money is on offer for a year then that's basically no go i would have thought. The disadvantage would be too great i'd have thought.

Again YOU choose to completely misinterpret a post and twist it like you always do. The FACT built from every post you make is, the only people who in YOUR mind have a valid opinion are those who are critical of the Leicester Promotion. I'm not a victim , I just happen to be a happy Lions fan that's all 😄 Edited November 11, 2012 by hurricanes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
