johnyson66 Posted September 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 Pickering scored 10+2 from Edinburghs visit to Leicester so could be a good booking for us , could do with Wooley for the home leg he might score 1 or 2 points although away from home we could have any nl rider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lenny Lion Posted September 23, 2019 Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 I will admit that Stewart & the Leicester team were very brave in picking Redcar the in form team I just hope they don’t live to regret their choice but of the 2 other choices I think they believe their best away performance came at Redcar. Have to say a strange choice of guests for the away leg Broc Nicol who has his work permit sponsored by the Bates family who own Leicester . Josh Pickering who is very strongly rumoured to be riding for Leicester in 2020 so is his heart really going to be in it if the rumours are true ?

Are you suggesting the Bates family will politely remind these 2 riders of this information prior to the meeting? Maybe if Pickering doesn’t score well Leicester won’t want him? If Broc doesn’t have his work permit sponsored next year, we will now know why! Edited September 23, 2019 by Yearbyred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good Luck with your conspiracy theories - I'm afraid you are a very small minority Rumour I heard was that both were very keen to ride and do well so they might get the call from Redcar next season 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't call the Bears the in form team , we've lost our last 4 matches although 3 of them were away ties , out of the 3 teams Leicester could pick they picked the team who have got the least form and the most injuries, so if I was a Leicester supporter I'd have wanted us to , I just hope 4 of our top 5 have good meetings and Nicol should be good value for a few points home and away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Al Posted September 26, 2019 Report Share Posted September 26, 2019 2 hours ago, johnyson66 said: Weather looks bad for the first leg tomorrow, looks better for Saturday but rain forecast for later on in the day for Leicester There's a forecast of rain coming in on Saturday evening from 6pm with it getting worse as the evening goes on. Bringing the start time forward to something like 5pm could give a better chance of completing the match, but that might not be possible to do at this stage, and there's no guarantee the weather will do as predicted!

Haha I agree , they probably think they are already in the final , hopefully the ties go ahead and if we can get a 4 to 6 point lead it's game on , all riders should be pretty fresh as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
