LEICESTER will be without Kyle Howarth for this evening’s (Monday) home ROWE Motor Oil Premiership clash with Oxford.
Howarth misses the meeting due to a family issue which requires him to be away from the Hydroscand Arena, Beaumont Park.
The Speedway Control Bureau (SCB) have been made aware of the circumstances and have granted the Watling JCB Lions a facility to replace him.
With the Lions already operating rider replacement for Luke Becker, they have called up Steve Worrall to stand in for what will be his first top-flight appearance of the season.
We wish Kyle and his family well and hope to see him back with us next week.
