Big blow for Wolves, although as long as he's back fit for the play-offs, that's all that matters. He will be back before the play offs .... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lefty 1,268 Posted August 6, 2023 Leicester have released Chris Harris to Peterborough. So, sadly no Bomber at The Green tomorrow night. How will Wolves fans cope? At least his name will be in the proggy! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tommy Sweetman 480 Posted August 21, 2023 So now we all know the real reason behind the decision there will be no more speedway at Monmore Green after this season.The Council have announced plans to demolish the next door wholesale market and build a new far larger facility that will include a new mixed use complex to incorporate vehicle fleet services,new market,meals on wheels operartion,salt storage with new electric vehicles,street sign opereration and office space to control all these facilities...... So this was the devious plan all along between Entain and Wolverhampton City Council to end a near 100 year reign to bring an end to Wolves speedway at their present home. Bare faced lies from Entain about needing a new track for Premier greyhound racing,and the council for saying they'll do all they can for Entain to change their mind and let speedway continue at the Green.Both organisations lying scumbags. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trying to get my head round this. The only conniving I can see is if Entain have agreed to sell Monmore Green to the Council, who then demolish it to build their larger facilty. Otherwise if there is no change to Monmore Green stadium then it's as you were ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Otherwise if there is no change to Monmore Green stadium then it's as you were ? Entain and Arena have already said they are going into a joint operation at Dunstall Park so horse and greyhound racing will be at the one facility,and with Wolverhampton council closing their depot at Culwell St there is nowhere near enough space to accommodate with what they're planning in today's Express & Star at the present fruit & veg wholesale market. The fleet of vehicles alone which they are stating will be based there requires an enormous amount of land so really the only other viable space in Hickman Ave is Monmore Green which is right next door.
