Robbobee Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 Still no mention of Lions team to face Poole on Sat night on their own website ?? Poole confirm team as .... K Nilsson, K Howarth, L Bjerre, D King, J Garrity, M Riss, D Ayres .... abut the best we could hope for I reckon ... not sure it will enough to beat Poole though ... Klindt at reserve is a potent weapon for them as can see him having 7 rides if needed. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klindt at reserve is a potent weapon for them as can see him having 7 rides if needed. Cheers It is on Leicester website now. Apparently Schlein twisted his knee in first race and pulled hamstring but battled through until pulling up in heat 13,so I would have thought it would be better for both parties if he pulled out of the guest booking especially when he would most likely be expected to have 5 rides possibly 6.

Robbobee Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 If Roo Boy has to pull out of the meeting not many other options for Poole other than to use Lewis Kerr maybe ? Bit of a headache for Matt Ford I guess ! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of a headache for Matt Ford I guess ! Cheers That was my suggestion before he picked Schlein, Lewis Kerr rides Leicester pretty well too and it would mean an extra ride for Hans Andersen too which wouldn't be a bad thing.

Cheers I agree about Klindt, but not being exactly on top of the average rulings, when will he move up into the main body of the team? Klindt's current average is 2nd only to Nilsson had he still been a Lion. It's such a massive advantage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted June 2, 2017 Report Share Posted June 2, 2017 (edited) Nicolai will complete his 4th home meeting v Wolves on Wednesday 7th June. Similarly with Brady, Hans and Jack who have all done enough away meetings already. Nicolai's running 2017 average after 3 Home/4 Away meetings is 6.67 which would put him at 2nd string along with Kyle Newman (who will likely retain his starting average as he's been out injured), with Jack Holder dropping to reserve - all depending on the scoring in the final 4th Home meeting!?

And their new averages will come into effect once their seven competitor teams have completed 4h and 4a! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 (edited) Not on the Leicester website yet, but Garrity and Ayres replaced by Josh G and Jack Smith tonight with r/r for E.Riss according to Poole website!! Schlein is apparently declared fit to guest for Kurtz! Edited June 3, 2017 by Skidder1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schlein is apparently declared fit to guest for Kurtz! Ok that is good hope Schlein doesn't pull out after one race as that would be a disaster, he has obviously assured Matt Ford that he is fit but you never know. Josh G probably stronger than Garrity at the moment but Jack Smith is weaker than Ayres so still think it should be a comfortable win but you never know.

krompa Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 Can Leicester move Josh to 4? Or he has to be at 2?Always better option to use R/R at number 2 IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreverblue Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 Can Leicester move Josh to 4? Or he has to be at 2?Always better option to use R/R at number 2 IMO. With this Leicester team not sure it matters where he rides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IainB Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 Can we expect a sun delay... and an interval on top? Also with both teams operating R/R, this one could run into tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted June 3, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 Not going this evening as Leicester by far the least entertaining track in the league. Think it will be close and Poole will certainly miss Brady. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 (edited) Not going this evening as Leicester by far the least entertaining track in the league. Think it will be close and Poole will certainly miss Brady. Shouldnt be close as Poole thumped them last time and if anything are just as strong this time. KK, Holder and Kurtz got 25 last time and i would expect Zengota , Schlein and r/r to score 20 between them. Newman for Kerr is also a benefit Leicester are weaker as well. Howarth scored 2 last time at Leicester so is not a good replacement for Erik Riss and im not sure Mark Riss can match Bates. Josh G for Garrity is a good choice For Poole , Zengota goes well at Leicester, Schlein got a max there last time so is like for like for Kurtz and r/r will get more than the 2 that Holder got last time. Poole won by 22 last time, anything less than a 10 point win for Poole will be a poor performance Edited June 3, 2017 by Gavan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShrewsburyWolf Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 who can take the rider replacement rides for both sides in this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Hunter Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 Lions have 3 guests plus 1 r/r - this means that I will not be there. Who would go to watch any team sport with over half your team not there? Would have been much better to postpone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
