Would be the euro game with our best chance of winning
But probably co-incides with our most injured squad?
Unless they all recover at same time

I take it there’s no rules locking teams into the same roster for the duration of the group phase, so Martin will be able to play?

But who else will be fit to suit up?! This is one hell of a season for our roster re injuries. Going to the game but resigned to a probable loss - again.

Well, there's you, isthaturinal and IRF for starters. Just remember to take ya Kit along just in case ... you may just get some minutes of the bench ...I'd definitely pay to see that  |

Actually, I have enjoyed watching Riders European games (I didn't realize how physical it was across there, and I've learnt alot) I take no pleasure in any player injury and losing their lively-hood (It's happened to me in the past and its not good place to be at) I wish all the injured players at Riders a quick recovery. ... Also, I make a lot of jokes about other teams on here. It's not personal. I'm pretty sure the MRF, isthat.. and IRF ... will see the funny side of my post ( I've used it before with other teams) Hope that clears that up ... Good luck on Wednesday. I will be watching (assuming I work out what time the game start GMT+1 ?)  |

I will be watching (assuming I work out what time the game start GMT+1 ?) This is being my area of expertise in these threads… the game is taking place in Leicester, so it’s got a tip-off time of 19:00 GMT+0. So that’s 7pm UK time. |

Let’s be honest now, with a ful fit roster we maybe had a chance of an upset,
But with half of our starting 5 struggling to regain fitness we really don’t stand a chance........do We?

Martin looks very strong and effective so far

Martin is just the player that Leicester needed. Now look how the game has opened up for them. He’s very patient in the post, he knows how to play around the basket and he seems very strong.. only 6’7” but commands a double team on his possessions 👏👏👏👏👏 good pick up for them, if only he was there earlier in the stages of eurocup

55-49 Riders at half time. Soon as we figure out how to defend against these guys weve got a chance of winning this!
Martin 11 minutes for 12 points (5 from 5 FGs) making it look very easy to convert under the hoop
Look out BBL if he stays

Why was it so empty? Barely anyone in...worst crowd than the Sharks get? Why is no-one going to these games. Leicester charging too much or no-one arsed?

Have to say I'd be worried if I were Trayvonn. Martin showed what he can do with comparative ease. Highly effective and that's despite looking a little unfit some of the time. Agree with the above poster - look pout BBL if he stays all season.
