  1. Could've, should've, would've. He didn't and it is never known if he would have. I doubt he had the temperament to do it. Which Tai proved is what you need. Talent alone simply isn't enough.
  2. Would be crazy to let Thorssell go. Would make no sense at all.
  3. The Aces as expected look very strong so can only see a comfortable home win. If we can keep it to within 8 we will have done well. 50-40. Working so gutted I can't make it.
  4. Gutted I won't be able to make this one. Always a good scrap when the Bees are in town. So I hope we give em a thumping as a reminder. Mon the Wolves
  5. Brits first is good but ignore the Aussies long association dating back to the birth of the sport? Still hypocritical.
  6. It's clear. He rode here last year, the rule was introduced last year. I'm in no doubt it was explained to him. Only he was at fault.
  7. Perry has a lower NL and Championship average.
  8. You can't use Aussies and Poles for major success over very recent years and then say all clubs should ditch them all.Hypocrisy of the highest order. We should have done more to help the Brits 10 years ago but clubs like Poole were only too happy to use the next sensation on a 4 point average for years and ignore the next generation of Brits. It's admirable you recognise this now but Poole of all clubs have ignored Brits largely for years. Newman is probably the only British success (establishing at top flight level) Poole have helped. Howarth was shoved from pillar to post for several years whilst Ellis had been developed by others before he made progress with Poole last year.
  9. I don't think there is a clearer rule, it doesn't need 'specifics'. Riders aren't allowed on the centre green on their bike under power or not prior to the start of a race. End of. There is nothing clearer than that. I always thought you had to be under power and on the track ready to race by the 2 minute rule?
  10. Danyon Hume is already better than Greaves. Although he already rides for Birmingham and Ipswich so availability may be an issue.
  11. a victory is a victory. It's careless to have 2 riders fall in the same race. There is no luck involved. What rule? The one where riders aren't allowed to ride on or across the centre green?? EVERY rider knows it. It's inept to have a manager who doesn't make the right decisions and riders who don't follow rules. Leicester were the better team but didn't win. That's their fault. That said Wolves team management have a lot to consider right now.
  12. I've already given my 'slant', guess you need to read posts properly. Good to see nothing changes.
  13. Best read Col's posts before you quote him so you don't look silly. Col thinks wolves will make the okay offs. His only issue is that wolves should have signed Klindt despite being told 100 times he didn't want to. Perhaps it might teach you to read someone's post before you quote them. read those below and tell me how he is 'on the money'. http://www.speedway-forum.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=83467&p=2932014 http://www.speedway-forum.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=82885&p=2935019
  14. And the figures quoted are similar to the ones you used. So I fail to see your point.
  15. A lucky win in the end. How long do we persevere with the reserves who are both clearly struggling? Already said Leicester are the dark horses of the league this year so no surprise on this performance.
  16. Official figures. 7.58 in 2014 not 7.48. Your 2012 figure is wrong too.
  17. It's getting a balance that might work better, but it's not as easy as it sounds tho.
  18. Not an improvement IMHO. Williamson is not even better than Clegg. Just goes to show how difficult it will be.
  19. Yes I agree if you look at it like that. Assuming there are 2 better signings out there of course that are committed to a full season. Greaves was always going to be a weak link and pretty much out his depth.(great gate in heat 4 at Leicester to hold 2nd for a lap). Clegg is needed to kick on for this line up to work - and that's assuming the top 5 are doing their job. I really thought Clegg had turned a corner at the tail end of last season.
  20. I agree. Was hoping we would have signed him. Huge talent IMHO.
  21. Unfortunately there is no telling Col. No doubt he will bring it up yet again.
