Leicester lions 2023 (PREMIERSHIP)


Recommended Posts

Earlier today I am sure I read somewhere here that Leicester Lions appeared in the Premiership section of the BSPL website. Just looked and the Lions are in the Championship section.

Could this be the reason for the delay in the AGM press release? Maybe a massive spanner has been thrown by someone and now they are busy thinking up the excuses.

It's all over social media that were doing the premiership but in speedway god knows. Far as I'm aware were still going for the prem but would like to be proved wrong.

I can’t even access the website now. But not sure if Leicester were in prem section or not. But doubt they were tbh.

When I checked the BSPL website at around 5pm yesterday to check for any AGM info, the Leicester Lions logo had definitely moved into the Premiership section. The 9 Championship logos were in 3 rows of 3.

Well if you guys want to come back to the Champ, then welcome back!! :D

Realistically though maybe they just moved Leicester over to the Prem section of website too soon and wanted to do in time with the coming statement? :unsure:

Ah right. Fair enough. The delay in the announcement is due to the premiership and not championship I’m told. So maybe the delay is to do with Leicester. 
 

Have there been broken promises regarding the TV rights. 

 

is there enough riders to go around 7 teams?? If not. Have they now refused Leicester moving up. 
 

or is it nothing to do with Leicester at all. 
 

interesting few days ahead

Would sooner have Fricke in there than both Worrall and Lawson. Otherwise not too bad.

How reliable are your sources? I was told a team similar but with mountain and nicholls in...suprised if Kerr is at Leicester given he finished so we'll at Sheffield.

I know Harris has signed for sure.

Very strong Leicester ITK said Morris is in.

ITK's are all in sync about Lawson, Worrall & Thompson joining Leicester so they can't all be wrong imo.

Very strong ITK PhilTheAce said Kerr is in and he wouldn't say that unless it was concrete imo because anyone would've assumed that Kerr was going to be Sheffield's No.6 imo.

 

I thought you had Max Fricke but he doesn't fit with those mentioned above.
