Lenny Lion Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 The time change is 100% correct . Bad rain forecast from around 8:00pm & Leicester have a huge home fixture back up with the national league team also in cup semi & play offs . The promotion will only run Lions matches on Saturdays else they lose serious money as the crowds do not attend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pvm Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 Sounds like a very sensible change, which is a little surprising considering this is Speedway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtf Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 23 hours ago, stevethelion said: If either or both meetings are postponed, it's highly likely to be October before they are ridden, in which case the October averages will be in force, these aren't yet on the SGB website so I can't check, but it could mean the original guests aren't eligible to ride because their averages no longer fit. Obviously now only applies to R.Worrall & MPT, as Greaves is now riding. Lawson was only 0.01 of a point inside Richie's average for September. I've just checked SGB website & October's average's are now showing. If friday's meeting at Redcar is off, Lawson won't be able to guest if the rearranged meeting is in October, he will have gone up to 8.32. MPT's average goes up to 8.18, so the original guests that were booked would still be eligible. 2 hours ago, stevethelion said: Correct, no Lawson now, average will be to high. Nichol was no longer guesting for Greaves anyway, he had been declared fit to ride, although the preview yesterday on the Lions website still showed Nichol. I think it was written before Greaves was declared fit. Might still see Lawson now guesting in the Redcar meeting for MPT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lions guests looking a bit limited for next Friday. Edinburgh v Newcastle now rearranged for same day, which rules out S.Worrall & Pickering. If Redcar decide to use Lawson then Allen could swap sides. Only other candidates are Howarth & Ellis.

Big Al Posted September 27, 2019 Report Share Posted September 27, 2019 1 hour ago, iainb said: It would be a sensible change if they could run a 15 heat match in under 90 minutes Ideally it would have made sense to bring it forward to an even earlier time, but with today's rain (another downpour about an hour ago, but blue skies now) I guess it's going to need every minute available to get the track ready, and staff & stewards can't all make a big change to their day very easily to accommodate more than an hour alteration. So it's going to be a case of keep fingers crossed and just hope there are no delays, unpredicted downpours, and that Josh Bates doesn't make a surprise comeback.

johnyson66 Posted September 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2019 Weather looks OK for Leicester today , may be a couple of showers so hopefully the track can dry out and we can get a meeting on tonight, Leicester have barely been troubled at home this season so hopefully we can come away only 6 to 8 points down or less Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
