Hemsley reflects on missed chance for Leicester Lions

Lions owner Hemsley has brought speedway back to Leicester

Leicester Lions promoter David Hemsley had mixed emotions after two close battles with Berwick over the weekend.

The Lions took a bonus point from a thrilling 46-44 defeat at Shielfield Park on Saturday, before being held to a 45-45 home draw 24 hours later.

Hemsley said: "Probably I would begrudgingly have accepted two points before the weekend.

"But afterwards I tend to think maybe we threw three away. They were two even and very competitive meetings."
