Leicester V Eastbourne 14 July


Recommended Posts

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?

looks like just let a drunk loose with a trundle wheel to mark the white line

Well thats my Leicester virginity gone (albeit via TV)

I must say the meeting wasnt as bad as I expected although that may be down to my very low expectations!

The chances of a pass are all but nil without a big mistake being made. The shape is definately all wrong .

Not sure there is much that can be done about it though without almost starting again which must be highly unlikely due to the expense. Tinkering with the inside line would make bugger all difference.

Some 'entertainmentt' tonight from the high speed spills but thats not I want from my Speedway.

Im sure most home fans will go home happy tonight due to the comeback win and you could argue thats all that matters is that enough continue to feel that way.

Overall though it left me with one thought in my head - Leicesters revival no doubt can be considered a success but just how much better it couldve been had the planning of the track been equally successful.

I thought it was a bloody brilliant meeting if I'm honest!

 

Well done to both teams; and particularly the Leicester Promotion. I'm sure that I wasn't the only neutral on the edge of the seat.

 

Don't really get the constant criticism about the track; particularly as the majority of people possibly making these comments have never even sat on a Speedway Bike; let alone ridden/raced one.

 

If all speedway meetings were that entertaining, the sport may not be scratching it's arse looking for punters.

It's a shame that the track isn't better, because everything else seems about right at Leicester. It's a strange old shape alright and that problem does need addressing. Cracking climax though.
