Wolves V Lakeside Mon 20th April
Tommy Sweetman replied to mdmc82's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Sorry mate misunderstood.Thought you meant Jacob aspiring to be the new PK on track. Yep,hes getting there with the lingo,but both of them have some way to go before they master it like PK,s brother. You could almost believe Michael Max was born and bred in Quarry Bonk. -

Wolves V Lakeside Mon 20th April
Tommy Sweetman replied to mdmc82's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Thing is Wolfsbane,the promotion and a lot of the fans wanted to see Thorssell as the first name on the team sheet. He had a good season last year,but im still not convinced like Adams,that he is going to be the next "Super Swede". Hes still young,so time will tell. -

What Nigel said at the start of his first ride "On his day he can be world class". Which day was that then ?. -

Wolves V Coventry Monday 30th March

Think Coventry have made a mistake not going R/R,and it will also be a mistake for Wolves if Musielak is declared unfit and they go R/R. They have also gone for a guest,but perhaps with what happened at Brandon with his rides,Adams and CVS just don't want to take the gamble.But there would be better alternatives for Wolves than for the Bees replacing Robson. -
Hope CVS and Adams are seeing all these predictions about where Wolves will finish. As BWitcher has already stated elsewhere that we have been dealt a bad hand with the unavailability of both Woffinden and Pawlicki,it does question wether they could have made a better fist of it team wise. Suppose the writing was on the wall what to expect,when we had first pick in the second group of reserves and they chose Josh Bates over everyone else.
-
Wont stop CVS and Adams giving us the old flannel about us finishing in the play-offs though. But to be fair they can hardly say anything else. Lots of ifs and buts for me.Beside what happens with Musielak,can Jacob really kick on and be the next Swedish super-star?.
-
R.I.P. Responsible for the re-birth of Cradley.(Although wasnt very popular with Wolves fans). Put a lot of time and effort into speedway,will be sorely missed.
-
So it does seem according to Nigel Pearson,Ladbrokes have plans to run more greyhound meetings,with the lucrative betting markets around the world being the reason. So really it had nothing to do with rent rise or anything else that doesnt relate to the dog racing.

Regards Hulberts,can only go on past experence when they had their office on Cinder Bank. The security was pretty tight,and dont think they liked you to wander around their yard and premises. Havent been down since they moved the head office to the Peartree Lane site,but presume the restrictions still apply to the general public wandering around,which would be the case if a speedway track became a part of their estate. Sorry if i got confused about the traffic problem,was only going on my experiences when visiting suppliers in Pedmore Rd and Netherton.(not on sundays). Anyway good luck in finding a new site,think Sandwell might now be a better bet,as Dudley Council seem determined to wash their hands of any sporting activity in the borough. How long is it now that Dudley Town F.C.have been trying to find somewhere suitable.
-
Having dealt with Hulberts through their machinery division,not a chance in hell would they allow speedway on that site. Also nowhere big enough,and traffic congestion on Peartree Lane already chaotic.
-
Did he mention anything about the un-named site thats been looked at for the past 12 months. Its hard to believe that somewhere the size of Dudley(nearly 100 sq k)cant find a brown field space thats suitable for speedway. Although(being a resident)nothing suprises me about the inadequate way this council is run.
-
Ive always gone down the Newton Rd to the Scott Arms.Never really had much trouble with traffic,problems seem coming the other way out of the city.
-
Have Cradley ever looked at The Dell.Perfect location and facilities already in place.Is it still council owned ?.

Greg given the green light to ride on saturday(Daily Mirror). -
Nothing even comes close to Wolves and Cradley. But to be fair,it was so much more hostile,before the Yanks arrived. So much bitterness in the Ivor Brown era,even got a caution myself from the Old Hill constabulary,and i didnt even do anything,bar shoving a air horn up someones skirt.

Which Rider Have You Never Taken To?
Tommy Sweetman replied to phillipsr's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Ivor Brown,suppose thats obvious for Wolves fans from that era. Sure Cradley fans could name a few Wolves riders,that would come under the same category though. But one thing it did bring,and that was passion.And bucket loads of it. -
Not according to Nigel Pearson,he said it finished on 31st October.

British Speedway Promoters Meeting
Tommy Sweetman replied to dantodan's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Just listened a re-run of the Alan Phillips interview on WM last night,with him saying "After the end of day one of the AGM,with the new points limit,we would have to lose three riders anyway" So it seems fairly certain now,that the limit will either be 38 or 36,and that the 42.50 is scrapped,and they are not allowing for a new contract with Sky. -
Think you will find logistics,are a big part of the problem.
