NEW Leicester chief Damien Bates is promising fans a feast of entertainment in a new era for the club.
Bates, who takes charge after securing the SGB Premiership club from British Speedway chairman Keith Chapman, says the revamped Lions side will put on a real show for supporters.
“We will be the entertainers of this league,” he said. “Everyone is buzzing about it, I’m desperate to get those fans back on side who drifted away and to attract new supporters too.
“This is a new era for the club and we have to grab the opportunity with both hands. When you look down the team, we have guys who never know when they’re beaten.
“There will be no pressure on the shoulders of the riders, but we will be looking to go out there and lower the colours of our rivals – I’m also relishing the challenge of taking on our neighbours Coventry and Wolverhampton.”
