Just put a bet a couple of bets on bet365.

Bet 1 Leicester City to win premier league at 2.75

Leicestershire to win County Championship Division 2 at 26.00

Leicester Tigers to win the Rugby European Cup at 7.00

Leicester Lions to win the Elite League at 101.00

Put 20p on to win £10,110.10p

 

Bet 2 Same selections as above but each way.

Put on 10p each way to win £5342.90p

Easy money.

One that doesn't put us at much risk of the team being anywhere near the points limits!

I think the BSPA has realised the points limit was set a bit too high, but unfortunately that horse has bolted now - and it's wearing blue and white colours!

Seem to recall David Hemsley wanting a higher points limit a couple of years ago - that would have been when he was still harbouring delusions about all kinds of "top riders" who he believed were queing up to sign for Leicester.

How times change, eh?

If only you had put a bet on Leicester City at the start of the season when they were 5000/1 :wink:

Hope this bet does not mean you will have to cut down on food this month.

I caught him and stuck him away last night, but he's been kicking tenbells of whatnot out of the door this morning.. So much energy..

I wonder how much substance there was in that spin. If I had a pound for every time I heard the Ryan Fisher rumour I could buy a season ticket. The revolving door was always turning, but largely for the long line of journeymen looking for a team place. Leicester have never had to fight for a rider's services. I'd be interested to know which riders are Leicester assets.

Any news on a team sponsor? I think it's more worrying than the below average team line up, that for 2 years running the Lions have failed to secure a main sponsor, especially as I thought this was one of the things Neil Machin was brought in to assist with.

 

I just hope the confirmation on a TV meeting may help lure a company to become a sponsor.

Why the club fails to get sponsors maybe

 

1) poor team

2) poor track

3) poor website

4) poor media pr at the club

5) poor advertising for sponsors with only one meeting a season on sky

 

Just a few possible reasons

Funnily enough all the things that are on the list to be addressed now that they have seen sense got rid of Sarah.

 

You are going to see a new Leicester speedway behind the scene's this season so cut them some slack & judge them once the season starts i think you will all be very surprised. People are working round the clock to tie things up before going public very soon

So they "got rid" did they… as opposed to her leaving to have a baby as Flagrag stated? Interesting. Anyone else at BP you would like to see gone? First Chris P and now Sarah. Sounds a bit bitchy behind the scenes.

Anyway, good to hear all those things are now being addressed... it's only taken 5 years! :lol:

You must think we've got short memories. He was outed a few pages back as a different Dave.

 

Good to hear a team sponsor has been found & I'm all for improvements on the social media & PR side.

 

To set the record straight and so that everyone is aware " lionking " is DAVE DARCY -

now extract from that what you will.

Sack somebody just before she's due to leave to have a baby? Classy

I expect an annoucement about the new team sponsor for Leicester very shortly and is a name that many will know.

 

Let's hope that Leicester does not get any of the snow predicted on Friday as could do with dry weather to further repair the track

It's going to rain on Friday unfortunately, 90% rain, 10% wet snow, should have passed through by mid Saturday morning.. The charts are plumping for a drier, warmer spell 11c to 16c starting around Wed 9th/Thurs 10th March, which is also indicated to last through that weekend as well.... Unfortunately, there's a SSW taking place at the moment, it's effects not yet influencing the charts/models, so nothing is 100% certain at the minute....
