I've already said I will be there cheering the boys on in June so long as I'm in the Midlands. To say I'd cheer when the stadium closes is quite frankly pathetic.

I always take joy at winning against Coventry. To suggest I'd be happy to see the place close is beyond low. Tut tut.

Don't worry, I'm sure plenty of Wolves fans will be there in June when we take our 2nd win at Brandon. I've gotta be right sometimes! I'm more interested to see how we do against your lot (top 4 rivals) and also the Pirates and Aces. That will give us a clearer idea. Next week could be interesting tho.

Don't be too scared. Already got us down as a top 4 team this year. I can't be wrong every year can I. Have your lot won away yet out of curiosity?

Seriously????? Absolutely incredibly dumbfounding statement.

I'm just waiting for the usual suspects to remind us what an awful number one Kylmakorpi is. :rofl: Standard win at one of the basement sides this year. great to start cold with a win all the same. Slow Freddie anyone?

you can't replace a reserve with a top 5 rider. Anybody would be crazy to try using periscope again unless they want to face a ban.

Are we really judging him on 2 or 3 matches with league barely underway?

I thought averages didn't change till you have ridden 4 matches? Have Leicester ridden 4 already???

Play offs 2010 and 2013.

Agreed, however this is no quick fix. Do we really expect to have the next generation within 3 or 4 years? Ain't gonna happen. Let's face it there are only a handful of riders that should now be in the 1-5 after 3 seasons. Garrity, Newman, Steve Worrall, Auty. Agree there should be a limit to how many years they should be allowed to be on it. If more riders had the ambition of Garrity we might have more in the starting 1-5 and not take the easy and safe option and encouraged by the promoters to do so as well. We still aren't flush with enough riders ready for the EL draft yet, but it's coming. So 'bulking' the draft with riders that perhaps aren't meant to be on it is a necessary evil as far am I'm concerned. Better that than allowing other countries youngsters to get benefit here AFAIC.

What isn't a farce is that we are finally looking after the British riders and future. It's not perfect but it's better than falsely averaged foreign riders using our league to the benefit of their own country. Now that was a farce.

It would be a farce if you can drop a draft rider for a better quality rider. Completely defeats the object of the draft.

Be good to start our season with a win. You have to win at the weak teams homes if you want to make the top 4. Worryingly this is our first team match but still reckon we will win by 4.

Wolves won the league in 2009.

Ouch. Thought the Stars with Iversen would be pretty strong at home.

10-12 point home win.

Easy home win with or without KK. 53-39

Assuming it's an official reason or are the excuses starting already?

It wouldn't be sky's lack of confidence in wolves. They know if any place can get a meeting on it will be at Monmore. Looks like both Sky and Wolves have taken the predictions as gospel. How is the weather Wolves way? Only had showers here.

It's not. Rain predicted from 5PM.

What's to get? The lad didn't want another year on it and you can't knock his ambition. Coventry didn't have to use him in the main team did they? They clearly thought he was ready. I believe that if Kyle said to Middlo he wanted to start in the main team this year he would be without an EL club because Poole certainly wouldn't risk him in the 1-5. If Coventry have messed up by using Garrity in the 1-5 that's there fault. The fact Garrity was wanted by other clubs proves he was seen as a risk worth taking.

Thought sky did that a few years ago, came to nothing.

The poor under 30's, my heart bleeds not. More money than sense.

Stars by 4.
