What the hell is this jubilee league? Is it the summer trophy with a different name?

Where have you been... did you miss the big announcement across all the media outlets?

Great match, good racing, close racing, lots of passing. Well done to the Bears, everyone contributed. Great to see Jordon Jenkins getting stuck in. Was expecting It to be a closer match but Leicester had little back up to the heat leaders. I couldn't make the match due to a late finish at work, but watched the live stream which was excellent.

Really enjoyed that. Jenkins was superb, great pass of Worrall on one heat then same again heat 15 to pass Morris, no mean feat! 

Edwards also superb in main body - if we can get Bickley going (who rode ok tonight) we could do ok in playoffs. 

Thought Howarth was excellent as always here, Morris good and Mountain seemed to improve as night went on. Worrall was disappointing.

I’ve said it before & I will say it again. Max Clegg is not a championship rider. Hyped up beyond belief & can’t even beat Kyle Bickley.
 

What any club see in him is beyond me. I would rather give Tom Spencer the spot then him. 
 

Looks like Nick Johnson will be happy now he has got his favourite rider back in Leicester.

As it is the group winner from each section. Could go down to race points scored. We all know that Leicester have the biggest home advantage from this group. Why wasn't Jordan given Bickleys ride in heat 14. Was really stoked up after his last to second in heat 12.

I don't want to put anyone down, I'm sure the guy is doing his best. But, Max Clegg isn't the man for the job at Leicester.

I'm afraid he isn't good enough for this league. When it comes to the playoffs we are really going to get caught out at reserve, especially away from home. 

Hope I'm proved wrong.

Some of these anti Max Clegg comments seem a bit harsh! I agree he's had a dissapointing start for Leicester, but he's been off the bike for a while, so can understand that.

To suggest he's not "Champ standard" & should be replaced with Tom Spencer is just daft.

Spencer's NL ave is like 3 points below Connor Coles. While Coles Champ ave is about 2.5 points below Clegg.

Not sure how a rider with a 4.5 ave is not "Championship standard"
