Willowman Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 Internationally recognised company taking over the world Walkers is owned by Pepsi cola , you wouldn't want them on board would you ? No wonder they are trying to take of the world then. Walkers have come a long way since I worked in Leicester in 1982. Then they used to do some wicked strong salt and vinegar crisps which would now be banned by H&S which used to take off the lining of your mouth. Pepsi would do just fine as sponsors!

Pepsi and Coke used to take the lining off your stomach and rot your teeth back in the good old days when they tasted of something other than caramel and sugar , would not let that put me off a sponsorship deal, Nah seriously lets keep it local and tie up a deal for some free transport and cheap building materials , getting a global corporation on board would only lead to raising speedways profile and making it look like a truly professional sport 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wandersome Posted March 5, 2013 Report Share Posted March 5, 2013 (edited) Being diplomatic is cleaverly avoiding the question. Saying you like the track when you don't is lieing:) Not followed the Chris Harris part of the thread as i was trying not to post too much. I remember most riders hating Long Eaton when it was at its most entertaining to see. Dave Jessup, Dave Morton and quite a few others just used to freewheel around it so not sure what the point is that is being made. Is it that riders have too much say on track conditions these days? If so, i'm in. Edited March 5, 2013 by volty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wandersome Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 (edited) Loving the nonsense on here by the usual handful................. surely, with the best will in the world, even at its worst it's still better than some of the nonsense on your facebook site though! I heard on Sunday that Lasse and Simon were going to up to the track to practise yesterday. This had me thinking, is Adam Roynon back on a bike yet? anyone know how he's getting on.

The Voice Of Reason Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 This had me thinking, is Adam Roynon back on a bike yet? anyone know how he's getting on. I believe that his plan is to be back on a bike and practising within the following week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justathought Posted March 6, 2013 Report Share Posted March 6, 2013 Just over a week to go until the Lions get back into action with the visit of the Coventry Bees. I must admit I'm rather looking forward to the up and coming season. Looks like we have a fairly strong team this year. How do you think we'll do ?

How do you think we'll do ? playoffs minimum in League and minimum Semi Final in League Cup (I think there are Semi's) and win 4's and through at least 1 round in KO Cup Edited March 6, 2013 by hurricanes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astill lodge lion Posted March 7, 2013 Report Share Posted March 7, 2013 Alan Jones & David Hemsley were on radio Leicester tonight at 18.30. It's worth going to the BBC leicester web site and listening again. Hemsley comments on the development of Beaumont Park & the track. Hemsley said a BMX track was currently being built, but it sounded like he was struggling to get much else in. Velodrome & 5-a-side football pitches not happening. Hemsley reckoned the practices that have taken place since the track changes have seen an improvement. Yes, I know, he's not going to say anything else! Anyway that was my take on what he said. Thought it was good to hear his answers on a couple of the main questions that gave come up on here recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
