Leicester Vs Coventry 25/8


Recommended Posts

Just to further complicate things it's Lions cubs at Mildenhall with a 3.30pm start which would normally involve Clegg & Sargeant for Lions & Bates for Mildenhall, obviously Coventry will get first call on Sargeant & I imagine Clegg will be excused & ride in the elite league team, but can't imagine Mildenhall releasing Bates for a re-arranged fixture. Also Klindt, if fit will be at Scunthorpe, but that meeting starts at 3.00pm so will he & Howarth make it to Leicester for 7.30.

EL with get priority which means Sarjeant,Bates and Clegg will all ride in this fixture.

 

Not sure about Howarth & Klindt, how long does it take to get from Scunthorpe to Leicester?

One and a half hours unless the sat nav sends you a strange way on A roads in the dark so you have to turn round and go back to Scunthorpe again to pick up the M180 and M1. :lol:

Thanks so maybe there would be time.

The one and a half hours was the time Speedibee said it took to get back from Scunthorpe to Hinckley after his son was riding the night we were there. I'm not sure how often he broke the speed limit. :wink:

It's nearer 2 hours but it's a Sunday afternoon so the roads should be relatively clear. I would imagine both will try and get there. But there would be no Garrity for either meeting as Glasgow is too far to get from - however, it's not impossible that nice man Len Silver could give permission for us to use Jason rather than him going to Glasgow.

But as Leicester v Coventry is a re-arranged fixture doesn't the Mildenhall fixture take priority? If so i can see them insisting Bates rides for them.

Laurence Rogers has confirmed it.

It's a NT meeting so EL gets priority

Maybe next Thursday too!

We can dream.

So Nic Klindt is riding in Poland on Sunday. So a 3 pointer for Leicester then.

 

Bydgoszcz are also riding Sunday - so where will Hans be?

Where did you read this Hun?

 

The FIM calendar had no Polish speedway meetings listed this Sunday and also those connected to the Coventry Bees don't seem aware there is any.

 

Klindt is meant to be racing in the PL isn't he?
