Hemsley is bemoaning in this weeks Speedway Star that Leicester are only getting 1,000-1,500 people turning up to watch the Lions.......I know Diamond Dave seems to think in his words "I stand there and watch some of the racing where the quality and entertainment is first class" but Dave get your head out of your butt,the racing is routinely poor to crap...if you want more people to turn up then give the paying customers what they want,a decent "racing" track not the frankly boring circuit that is a follow the leader bore fest!

Could not agree more...

 

I have been 8 times and have no expectation of going again unless something is done to the track ... even the home fans berate the track

Where has it been announced Jason has moved on & if so where's he going?.

He said that he can no longer do a Saturday night due to the GP's and Poland fixtures makes it hard and will be moving in 2016 and I think he will be at Poole with Holder and Andersen and North

The GPs would not be a problem it is only the Polish fixtures that DH would have to work around - that would not be easy!

It is really a sad state of affairs in British speedway when we have to panda to riders because of the GP's Poland and Sweden, I can't ever see the day that British speedway returns as a top flight nation where the riders where worried about having problems riding over here, instead of the other way round, the days that British speedway was the one place that all the top riders headed for is a long lost memory.

With the riders now making the European clubs thier priority, because they clubs over there pay them far more than they get over here, I think we would be far better off without them.

Let them go and race there, and let British speedway concentrate on getting the British riders to a stage they where at over 10 years or more ago when the Brits could hold thier own against the rest of the world, we are now nothing more than a second rate nation in the speedway world.

So let them go and race over there, before long they will all want to come back when as with over here the clubs start to go bust because of all the stupid money they are offering to get the big names over there.

We have already seen it happening over there with clubs folding and some of the Polish clubs not paying riders.
