Lowest running cost will be the order of the day so staff redundancies and reduced marketing first in line of fire. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am just going by what top riders like Emil and Tai have said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teromaafan Posted October 25 Report Share Posted October 25 The Lion’s web site states that the situation with Pidcock Motocycles does not affect the running of the club or its plans for next season. Suggests that their sponsorship worth wasn’t that great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTT Posted October 26 Report Share Posted October 26 Masters has to be at Leicester because the Sam to Oxford rumours makes no sense now. Tungate confirmed, Janowski basically confirmed himself and they're trying to sign Bewley at No.1 therefore Masters doesn't fit unless they go with a rider on a 3 something at reserve and they wouldn't do that because they would've signed Boughen or Jenkins as the No.6 if they were going down the top heavy route.

My guess is masters re signs. Stewart voted him rider of the year so I assume he will want him back 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no better smell. I tried to get the Mrs to buy some so i can put a cap full in the petrol mower. It would certainly get me cutting the grass more often i said. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Masters will struggle to fit if we sign a number 1. We could not have signed Jenkins or Boughen at 6 as they were picked from the RS list so were unavailable after we picked Killeen. If they weren't picked, we could and probably would have taken Jenkins at 6. Unless of course either removed themselves from the RS list but would then lose the discount on their average.

spin king junior Posted October 26 Report Share Posted October 26 Can anyone explain why Cairns isn't being talked about signing for Leicester when he turns 16? I get it in the development league, Belle Vue is a good track to learn, but when it comes to the premier league hus first choice has surely got to be Leicester?

He's said he doesn't want the pressure of riding for his dad's club. He's also said his preference was Belle Vue because of the track. He doesn't like Leicesters. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musielak - 8.21 / Bewley - 8.52 2. Wright - 6.32 / (although I can’t see PS getting rid of Riss - 5.61) 3. Masters - 7.32 4. Janowski - 7.02 5. Tungate - 7.71 6.

J Thompson - 3 RS - Killeen Total: 39.58 / 39.89 (39.18 with Riss) Would've signed Boughen or Jenkins as the No.6 with one of them opting out of the RS scheme knowing that they'd have a Premiership place like the Edwards/Gilkes Sheffield scenario this season.

TTT Posted October 26 Report Share Posted October 26 Lawson is the perfect fit for the No.3 race jacket but he's off to KL if rumours are true. 1. Fricke 2. Howarth 3. 7.13 or 7.15 (Tarasenko?, Wozniak? or a 7.00 assessed rider from POLSKA) 4. Becker 5. Masters 6. Sedgmen or Kerr 7.
