Aces v Lions


Recommended Posts

Before all the remarks later about where is the crowd, we know, pre sales are half of a normal crowd. Being on TV with rider replacement for number 1 and poor recent results don’t help.

As for on track tonight it’s hard to predict, if the other top 4 for Belle Vue perform as they can then they can cover the R/R, but Lidsey hasn’t been great this year and Blodorn is inconsistent.

Leicester have a strong team on paper and all the top 6 can ride NSS well but again few of them are on poor form recently.

Been very hot day today, loads of water will have been dumped on track which will mean it will start wet. Racing hasn’t been as good this year, the material seems to be looser, riders complaining they getting filled in more and the material doesn’t seem to be binding on the outside line. they had some decent weather recently after very wet spring so hopefully been able to do something about it .

Anybody saying a speedway meeting is just 15 minutes of entertainment is simply trolling or just simple. 

I race,roughly a minute,15 races,roughly fifteen minutes is that not simple enough or would you care to enlighten me on where the rest of the entertainment comes from unless you make it yourself or are you talking about the occasional rider interview which invariably you can't hear or,like a lot of people,aren't really interested in.or maybe you're talking about the endless tractor grading,or fence repair or dodgy starting gates or sun breaks etc.

Can’t class football as 90 minutes of entertainment either. How much of that is the ball actually in play, and even when it is how much is being passed around by defenders etc not entertaining

Well that’s that question answered.

Is Connor Bailey British or Australian? He was British U21 Champion, has previously refused to ride for team GB, talks with an Australian accent, was born in Perth and has the Australian flag daubed all over his kit!
