Mr Bump Posted October 22, 2019 Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 (edited) Glasgow definitely had some bad luck over the 2 legs. Feel we deserve the title though, we’ve earned it over the whole, long, season. Credit to all at the club. Champions!!

jenga Posted October 22, 2019 Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 (edited) there is no such thing as bad luck in speedway , good luck and bad luck balance theme selves out over the season and is part of the sport , as are injuries . money cant buy you(me) love. THE BEATles .... buzzin for the lions .. Edited October 22, 2019 by jenga 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Endeavour Posted October 22, 2019 Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 Well done to Cookie tonight. Many congratulations to Leicester. They topped the table so fully merited the title. thought whoever had home leg first would have an advantage and I feel Leicester defended their 12 point home win with experienced riders and a more evenly balanced septet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
False dawn Posted October 22, 2019 Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 A testament to an all round side. A solid performance in both legs but how fitting was it that Ellis Perks, on his way to 3 leagues titles, should not only seal the deal in heat 14, but also be the Lions top scorer. Well done to the whole team for their fighting performance, tonight and throughout the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Cerro Posted October 22, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 Firstly can i say a huge congratulations to Leicester on their win, better team over the 2 legs and deserved their victory. Far too many last places over the 2 legs for us and ultimately it cost us. With all the early exclusions tonight I never felt like we ever built up any momentum, barely gated in a heat advantage position all night. Might of got a bit of luck in ht 6 with the Douglas exclusion, I felt that could of went either way. Heat 13 masterclass from Cook, not that we would expect any less but still simply sublime. Onto the final blow in heat 14 and what a ride from young Ellis Perks. To clinch the league in that manner, as much as it hurts us Tigers fans you can't help but doff your cap to the young man for a ride like that, absolutely fair play. Also would like to say what a show of sportsmanship from Lawlor to get the bike off the track when the Tigers were on a 5-1, really wouldn't of blamed him at all if he had stayed down to force a re run, that was a touch of class. I dunno what happened at the weekend between him and the fans down at Leicester but again I have to hold my hands up and say fair play to him for that. Looking back and noted that we gained +12 points in heat 13 & 15 over the two legs but still it wasn't enough. So if that doesn't tell you that the best 'team' won then I don't know what will. Once again congratulations Leicester and enjoy your night! 12 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post highroad119 Posted October 22, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 22, 2019 No title at Glasgow this year, so well done Lions on the title. Plenty digs at the "money men" not winning the title but these individuals have just served up the most entertaining season of speedway I can remember. Makes them winners too I reckon. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again congratulations Leicester and enjoy your night! You. my friend, prove why I still go to speedway after nearly 50 years. A true fan who acknowledges good racing, real sportsmanship and real speedway when he sees it. Tonight saw two quality sides go head-to-head for the trophy we all want. Leicester won, of course, but the real winner was all of us. Even "watching" on updates was nail biting. So as a Leicester fan (till the Bees return) can I say, "Well done to Glasgow". 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
