Leicester 2014 . Elite

I understand that Tom Perry is unhappy with the reaction of certain posters on here to him becoming a Lion. Tom, if you happen to see this post please do not think that true Lions supporters are to be tarred with this brush. I'm sure that you will do your best and enjoy your season at The Den but whatever the outcome your efforts will be appreciated by yours truly and all the many genuine Lion's fans that are looking forward to the new era of Leicester Speedway.

Is this a reaction to what someone has told him has been said on here or what he has actually read as I don't recall anyone actually saying much if anything about his inclusion.. In fact I've just had a look and bar Lionking pointing out Perry had a shocking year last year (which I guess even he would probably admit he did) I can't see anyone saying much at all about Perry. Most of the comments about Clegg are also positive, they just point out it may be too early for him and as such he may not have been the best choice available for this season . Which again I would say is a pretty valid point.

Nice to see Doyle in the frame for the Lions and I personally think the 2 reserves need to be given a chance, may not come true in the first few races but given time I think they will be able to make the grade, with the help of the other team members.

Tom if you are thinking of coming to the the Lions in 2014 you want go wrong always a good crowd and the supporters club helpers do a great job. I can say that I have never seen to many unhappy faces in the stands and you will find that you will be made most welcome. I for one enjoyed the racing they had some bad ones but not all of them.

But still a team worth supporting. They have done a great job in 4 years to get back in to top flight racing.

It would be great to see them finish in the 8th or 9th spot of even higher still in a first year in the top flight.

Good Luck to them in the coming year.

I like the Lions. Nice stadium and always a friendly smile from the supporters club helpers. What would we do without them.

Can't complain if I come on a off day it is easy to access in my wheelchair, with a section at the start line for people in wheelchairs,

Anyone thinking of turning up for the first time you will be made most welcome.

Now all we need is another 4 signings like the one announced today and the Lions are ready to hit the track, and not disappoint us as make us look silly. Best of luck for 2014.

Let the Lions Roar.

I love the fact that the 2 food stands toast the buns slightly for their burgers and hot dogs :wub: Mmm! :P Not been to that many tracks, but I've never known anywhere else to do it, so hats off to them! :lol:

Well Done to Leicester on the signing of Jason Doyle who was wanted by a couple of teams and it certainly looked like Wolverhampton had won the race to sign him. If Leicester get KK as expected then that is a decent start to a team and with another seven point rider they could build a strong team.

There is only one complaint I have about the stadium and that is the siting of the shop.

Who ever dreamed up the idea of putting it out of the way and right in front of the toilets. It should have been put at the side of the gate as you you come in.

But then again I suppose, that during the night everyone must go past it in a time of need.

Not coming from Leicester can anyone tell me what was there before the stadium was built. Was it a quarry or a tip.

Because like lots of other stadiums there is always the worry that the owner of the land, will one day find someone who has the cash to buy it and kick you off.

After the great work that has been done there at BP it would be a kin to a horror movie to have done all that to lose it and find that again the Lions where without a home.

Not that I could ever see that happening as it is a great location. The area around the stadium is a pleasure to see.
