I think it's fair to say that  Leicesters season is over.

Can't see us picking up anything on the road, so I guess have to try and win all home meetings that are left. Which may be difficult, shame started the season with so much promise as well. 

i was surprised your team folded so easy last night like you said showed so much promise at the start of the season still i suppose when vaculik got injured that was the start of your slide downward

Hans will be at Leicester as UK have priority on Monday night and DMU have issued his start  permission for UK so if rides in Poland will likely get a ban in both UK and Denmark

Josh G is a different matter as he is riding on a Polish license but as others have said RR could work well for Poole

Next Monday 30th sees Pirates return to Leicester after winning there just a couple of weeks ago on BT in a last heat decider.

This time Pirates return with Harris in place of Sundstrom. Leicester have changed 4 members of their lineup. 

There are question marks over the availability of Josh G for Poole and Hans for the lions as both have been named in the Lodz lineup at their stadium opening which takes place the same night in Poland. Hopefully both will be at Leicester.

Pirates need to continue their run of winning at home and picking up points on our travels.

Another very close meeting on this gate and go track.

Hoping for 3 points to Poole. 

Thoughts?

2 inaccuracies in this OP - firstly the opening match in the new Lodz  stadium is the previous day(this Sunday) v Gdansk. Secondly Monday`s teams for the Daugavpils match  have not been announced yet.

Only passing on the info I was given on Wednesday at the stadium. So Lodz have two home meetings in two days? You can see where the confusion comes from with Hans and Josh there on the Sunday then.

Hopefully both will be at Leicester on Monday.

Depends who told you on Wednesday ? if it was Poole management, they have hardly been bastions of the truth over the years( ie KK good Friday).

My thread which initially raised the topic was clear i thought

Did you see my updated reply on the earlier post R&R?  Straight from Matt F himself.

OK so as it is, Hans will be at Leicester, Josh might be at Leicester but could be at Lodz. 

But then money talks and Lodz will be probably on to Leicester begging for them to release Hans for the day as he is there anyway and it will save a lot of bother etc, and here’s some money to sooth over the pain. Similar situation to Jack Holder at Peterborough last season? Think Hans will be at Leicester.

Josh, on a Polish license might find it harder to not be in Poland with possible threats of having said license revoked etc.

Josh scored a very good paid 9 a couple of weeks ago in the win. R/R won’t cut it.

We need both at the meeting.

Danish Federation have approved Hans to be at Leicester so if he isn't then a potential ban could be on the cards.

If he's not, then I expect that Chris Harris will guest for him.

So Poole’s Chris Harris could guest for Hans Andersen against Poole?? :blink:

Heats 4,13 and 15 could be interesting when he rides in the white and red helmet colours...if his left leg crosses the line first he scores for Leicester and if his right leg crosses the line first he scores for Poole :lol:

BT would be missing something by not televising it.

" Correct me I'm wrong, Kelvin, but I think this is the first time this has happened in a league match since I started commentating"

"Certainly is, Nige, good luck with the commentating there."

I normally look forward to away meetings but having been several times to this track I know the ‘racing’ will be absolutely dire and it will be a gating competition as always. Still, I will be there cheering on the Pirates to hopefully a repeat of their last visit.

I've been to one more than you. B)

So are you going or not? You're like a politician avoiding the question. I'm doing Mildenhall tomorrow, Leicester Sunday, Birmingham Wednesday & Plymouth on Friday.
