Leicester V Sheffield 30th March


Recommended Posts

I'll start this one aswell then. I think most Lions supporters favor the social network medium but I am surprised at Tigers supporters apethy

 

Actually, I think you'll find most Lions supporters do not favour either the social network medium or forums. Due to the ease of facebook i think you'll find it's the same case with every tracks supporters that the the ones who go on the internet use social network over forums. It requires far more effort to post on BSF than it does on facebook. That's why in every aspect social networks have taken over the internet from forums, except in the important area of having a serious debate over a posting throwaway one liners.

 

That said, My apathy currently has more to do with my pre season optimism and enthusiam being completely drained over the weekend when i saw the 'track changes' at first hand. I'm afraid they won't come back until i see the action on saturday and can determine whether they actually are all we needed or not. Lets hope Glyn can make a track of it. Seeing Lewis score today has stoked me up a little though. Well done him. I think we'll stuff Sheffield. I expect good from Stead, decent from Wells and average from Haines from Hall. I think Albin will struggle to get around the bends and to me, Koppe only looked average NL quality around BP last year. I think 52-38 or more.

So what is the final verdict on the Leicester track changes, such as they are ?

 

Have they improved the racing ?

 

As expected total crap racing as it has been for 2 seasons, The 2 or 3 feet cut in has made no difference at all as seen tonight.

 

I await those who thought the meeting had loads of passing and the track was excellent. :rofl:

such as they are? the track changes are barely discernible.

 

Have they improved the racing? of course not. As ever, the overtaking required very slow riders popping out the gate in front of much, much faster riders (Simon Nielsen being tonights example).

 

Personally, if i'd been Popple or either of the Sensicalls i'd have been embarrassed to have to keep mentioning the 'new track' but there you go, it's probably in the contract..

Well it's like my Mrs said it's early yet but at least we won and if we keep on winning some of the fans still would not be happy. She says she is happy just to have speedway back at Leicester and not at all so why are some fans never happy would they be happy just sitting on there back sides watch X factor or some thing els I know what I'd rather be doing.

and that's what speedway is about? being more enjoyable than a night in watching x factor?

 

For no apparent reason as far i can see, for the second year running, the track hasn't had any of the obvious changes that are required to turn it into even a crap track. it's still an absolute shocker of the first order. 3 years in and benefit of the doubt used up, It ain't like any speedway i've witnessed in the last 35 years. If people are happy with that then i'm trully amazed.

I feel for you and others who have season tickets after watching that tonight, as expected nothing has changed,I think i would rather watch saturday night tv than see that out of the start stuff each week with no chance of see overtaking unless a rider makes a mistake.

 

a 3rd year with a Poor track will have an effect on the future of the club, All because DH wouldnt listen to experts on what was the best way to change the track, he even quickly got it done while glyn was out of the way, this is leicesters track man and manager who also is someone with experience
