Fourentee 987 Posted April 12, 2018 Just had a quick run through Wolves’ away matches in the regular season last year. If I’m correct (I did rattle through it a bit), Thorssell rode 13 of them and finished ahead of the home No.1 at some point in eight matches. Not every time they met, and not all race wins, but pretty decent going all the same. I very much take the point that riding at No.1 (for the pressure almost as much as the harder outings) is a different kettle of fish, mind. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yampy 20 Posted April 26, 2018 The biggest concern at present is Cameron Heeps. I know it sounds harsh after just 3 meetings but what is Plan B. Last night people said NBJ at reserve was the difference but if Heeps was performing to his average, Wolves may have won..... CVS was fairly quick to change Skornicki last season... Will he be as ruthless this year? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will he be as ruthless this year? too early i think as he has shown he can score some points he's just lacking in consistency. with a 5.25 average as well who is there to replace him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wolfsbane 12,944 Posted May 17, 2018 I guess we'll see how serious Da Management are after tonight. Make a positive change, like last season, or let it drift and blame the fans for not turning up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReadingRacer2017 159 Posted May 17, 2018 Cameron Heeps worst number 3 from a visiting team I’ve seen at Swindon for many years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd treat your comment with a modicum of respect if you even attended. He beat Doyle on Monday, just saying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel Smith 5,666 Posted May 17, 2018 Heeps and Howarth are big concerns. Will be a massive concern to the management I'm sure once Heeps goes to reserve and Morris moves into the top 5. It would be totally wrong and unfair on Morris, doing really well but still should be down at reserve. I wouldn't be surprised with the backward thinking of Peter Adams that Morris would be the one to get the chop after a couple of low scores at 2nd string.

That seems to be the case for most teams in all leagues. It's generally someone doing a decent job paying the price for 1 or 2 that aren't when redeclaring. Nothing new or surprising here. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Adam's "backward thinking" has got him 9 league titles in his locker, and no doubt he will get to his target of 10 before he retires. How many have the Stars got ? Oh that's right, ZERO. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hel'n'Back 146 Posted May 17, 2018 I think Howarth is still feeling the affects of his injury at the moment and will get better with time... he was scoring big scores before his injury. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
