The track clearly needs a lot of work to rectify the problem soon before somebody comes away from there with a bad injury. Holder is clearly going through the motions, but good on him for speaking his mind about the track.

Jim Lawrence is the ref. Say no more.

Super heat 3 there

Delighted with the win to put us back at the summit. My second trip to Leicester and I was curious to see for myself whether the standard of racing had improved. In fairness there were one or two good moments of racing, especially a cracking heat 13 between Starke and Kylmakorpi. By and large though, it was pretty ordinary. Have to say the crowd was really poor. But when te home teams struggling and the weather is poor, it's not a huge suprise. A real pity because it's a cracking little venue. If more thought had gone into the track, they could have had something really special.

Not going to criticise too much as the weather clearly caught the Brummies out. I came out of work at 5pm convinced it was going to be off, so they deserve credit for getting the match on and avoiding the nightmare of slotting in a rearranged fixture. Saying that, it was arguably the poorest meeting I've seen at Perry Barr with not one single pass.

Pretty straight forward for Wolves last night against a poor Leicester team. One or two moments of good racing as well, with a brilliant outside pass by Freddie on Watt. Sad that we used to see those moves several times in one meeting, but now so rare at Monmore.

Bech's not got going yet, but I wouldn't lose faith in him just yet. He's been unfortunate to be in a difficult spot in the side as well as picking up an injury. But he does need to start performing better soon.

Have to say that I've seen much better racing in two matches at Brandon this season than in any meeting for a good long while at Monmore. Never thought I'd type those words.

Tremendous meeting with some quality action. Coventry deserved win though. Team line up shuffle has weakened Wolves with Howarth and Bech as heat leaders.

Can only see a comfortable Coventry win at the moment. Track not suiting Wolves at all

Just watching the Lakeside Belle Vue match back. This sums up exactly why people get so disillusioned with speedway. Constant delays with nothing happening and a meeting (league leaders against a highly fancied opponent) played out in front of one man and his dog with no atmosphere whatsoever.

Clegg has been able to hide so far due to the other riders in the side scoring big points. Unfortunately Howarth having a poor night at Poole exposed him.

Pretty much what I expected, though Howarth very disappointing. Nobody will touch Poole down there. Just hope people don't get disheartened. Losing at Poole doesn't mean we've become a bad team over night.

No doubt older Wolves fans best memory of the place was the infamous sit-in of 1985.

Racing was virtually non existent. It's great that the teams winning, but that's not enough for me. I want to see some entertainment and we're not getting it at Monmore Green any more.

Holders done 2 good impressions!

Need to sort 3rd and 4th bend out. Riders struggling to stop on getting good round so far.

The crowds at Wolves have definitely dropped in the last 5 or 6 years. Something the promoter denied at last winters forum as "the books suggested otherwise".

Might as well move it back to the dog track. Belle Vue should have stopped there rather than waste money on a venue they can't even use.

Think the weather might save Rye tonight. Absolutely hammering it down in Birmingham now.

I fear this is going to become a problem at Monmore this season with us and Cradley sharing Mondays. Can see some double headers on the horizon. Looking at mid April before first home meeting for Wolves now.

Can only see a rain off tomorrow. Forecast is awful.

In fairness the win at Lakeside was pretty fortune as we managed to ambush them in the big heats and also when Karlsson was riding well. This was a much more convincing display tonight. Early days of course, but it's a good start.

I've no doubt it'll be a fantastic facility Phil. However, if they can't get the track sorted out then it will be wasted. There's only so long before people will start to ask some serious questions.

What a farce of a speedway club Belle Vue really are. Nine years and seven million pounds totally wasted by the looks of it.
