stevebrum Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 certainly better than Wolves. Leicester played 12 for 9 points. Wolves played 12 for 18 points. You are proven wrong. : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMW Posted June 20, 2015 Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 Doyle, Walasek, Masters are all very strong riders and your new signing can add to that. It's the reserve berths that Leicester are struggling with Cov have the 2 top reserves in the FTDR. They are going to be difficult to beat by anyone in the league.

mdmc82 Posted June 20, 2015 Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 (edited) Cov have the 2 top reserves in the FTDR. They are going to be difficult to beat by anyone in the league.They weren't the top of the drafts at the start of the season though. A lot is down to how much support the club/team have given the reserves. Look at the difference in Sarjeant from this time last year. Regardless of how people feel towards Havelock, one think it's hard to find fault with is the support he gives to both of our FDR. He travels to other meetings with them & shares advise with them on riding the bike & track set ups. I think he has played a part in the improvement of both riders as both improved a lot since joining Coventry. Both have said in interviews how much the other riders esp Harris have helped them. The club have helped with finding sponsorship deals for the lads as well. Unfortunately for us both are beatable (although Garrity often beats himself by putting too much pressure on himself) but would still not swap them for any other riders in the draft.

mrcts Posted June 20, 2015 Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 Leicester played 12 for 9 points. Wolves played 12 for 18 points. You are proven wrong. : we have still got 3 fixtures against your lot.. so you can add 9 points to our total. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 I think you'll also find that the season hasnt finished yet. Think the time to brag is when you have past us at the end of the season (highly unlikely). Not when you have only scored half our league total so far. we have still got 3 fixtures against your lot.. so you can add 9 points to our total. I'll have what you have been drinking.

stevebrum Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 I'm not bragging .............just stating a fact . The only facts are that Leicester are the worst team this year and the league table proves it. Cast adrift all season long. Let's see if you can actually get off the bottom before making such false claims! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve0 Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 The only facts are that Leicester are the worst team this year and the league table proves it. Cast adrift all season long. Let's see if you can actually get off the bottom before making such false claims! Another day and moved on to another team I don't think you really get the fact that the only positions that matter are at the end of the season. It doesn't matter if a team has been in the top 4 all season and they end up finishing in the bottom 4. Yes it looks like Leicester (or even Lakeside) will finish bottom but in speedway anything can happen and if both strengthen and get the points they need then I doubt you will be so cocky! What I can't understand is why a fan who supports a shockingly poor Wolves team (now that PK has returned to previous form) is having bragging rights over fellow struggling teams!

And here we go with the usual "Wolves are crap, they will be bottom of the league" poster. At least you and the Leicester duo have one thing in common. Perhaps take a pinch of your own medicine and tell me how crap Wolves are at the end of the season then. Like Wolves , Swindon and Leicester seem to have little chance of the play offs as things stand. No doubt you will tell me Swindon are much better and will make the play offs zzzzz zzzzz zzzzz zzzzz I know you understand what it's like supporting a "shockingly poor team" being a 2015 Swindon supporter.

weatherwatcher Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 The fault with the Lions is the fact that again 2 overseas riders come over here, not really making a great show, but Mikleson did start OK till his accident, then when their home leagues started they did the magic disapearing act. Plus the Lions have had one inbjury after another at one point they where down to 3 home riders, now they have a full team, or almost as now they have lost their 2 reserves. It is very hard at times to win meetings when you are having to call on so many guests. Just hope that now they can get things moving again, when do we expet the reserves back, I think Auty is out for most of this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 (edited) Remind me how it went with your non-foreign riders.... The issue is you got left with all the crud nobody else else wanted. Edited June 21, 2015 by SCB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevebrum Posted June 21, 2015 Report Share Posted June 21, 2015 stevebrum complains when someone tells him wolves are terrible (which they are), yet then says the exact same thing about other teams. Funny how people moan when I slate their teams yet feel it's ok to slate mine. If Wolves were as bad as Leicester or Lakeside I wouldn't be happy. Please feel free to tell me how wrong it is to say that but don't forget to mention how crap Wolves are. #hypocrites Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was a poor signing pre season, based on his previous form at BP, but I'm very happy he proved me to be totally wrong!! Is he getting near to a comeback?
