TMW Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) I expect Blackbird will do well. Not sure about Halsey but saw him at Kings Lynn the other week and the draft has certainly given him a boost. Look forward to seeing Buzz again he is quite a character.

I expect Lions by a wide margin......of course everyone will blame the track and not praise Doyley , Mads , Steady , Buzz Klindt, Bates or Cleggy. Also predict the Lions will take at least a point at KL on Weds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Hunter Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 As I said on another thread expect Lewis Blackbird to have 7 rides and score a third of Eastbourne's points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMW Posted July 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 As I said on another thread expect Lewis Blackbird to have 7 rides and score a third of Eastbourne's points. Yes I set up a new thread. Meetings rarely get discussed. Lets hop this one is different although. I don't comment on Lions threads anymore but I'm looking forward to this one. Mainly because I remember the constant moaning about Blackbird when he was a Lion. I think he will come back to haunt us 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Observer Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Thought Lewis always stated he hated the track or was he referring to something/somebody else. Mischief in the making eh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mischief in the making eh!Probably more to do with everyone bleating on about how we should have signed Kerr and we kept the wrong one etc etc etc. Don't like the track sounds much better The grass is always greener for Lions fans Edited July 14, 2014 by TMW 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdmc82 Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Leicester are still carrying too many riders on a track they have no home advantage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pantherman Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 That track is not my favourite, the only passing is by someone taking advantage of mistakes. Looks a bit narrow on TV 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blazeaway Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Was this track designed by a five year old with a box of crayons? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PHILIPRISING Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 FIRST look at Leicester for me and judging by a string of comments from riders on both sides it isn't conducive to good racing. And already there have been too many crashes. Which is a shame because otherwise it has much to offer. What a pity that more thought and planning didn't go into the actual track shape. Shorter straights, wider corners, it isn't rocket science. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobrakeshere1 Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 Was this track designed by a five year old with a box of crayons? Anyone who thinks this track provides good racing must believe that UKIP are communist. Only passing is caused by mistakes, otherwise no one is getting anywhere near. It's just reminded me why i no longer pay to go and watch such total rubbish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pandorum Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) Was this track designed by a five year old with a box of crayons? Glad I saw speedway at Blackbird Road as this place isn't the best. Also good to see MM OK. These kids are tough tonight.

To be fair the stadium and viewing is very tidy, the track is utter $hyte and on tonight's showing now looks bloody dangerous. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blazeaway Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 They had a blank canvas FFS. So many great tracks in the World they could have copied and they've come up with this turd? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
