  1. I'd certainly take him at leicester next year.
  2. Think are Poole are 4 up on aggregate. They do the treble .
  3. I still fancy Poole for this. Much strong side but you never know
  4. Im not sure if its Ashtons father. Could be but from what I've heard it's some one in property..
  5. Saw this yesterday..hammers? Somerset? Newcastle?
  6. I wonder if this is case next season also. Could mean few other Russians make the jump to the UK
  7. He said it wasn't rye house or Eastbourne. Also Swindon licence is on ice for now. He said new speedway track from what I recall. Make of that what you will.
  8. Who's the mystery club returning then that Phil Morris said there is a good chance of?
  9. I think I can speak on behalf of most speedway fans here in the UK and we would all love Emil at their club next season. He's been the best rider I've ever seen at leicester this season. Just an insane rider and an all round nice guy. I couldn't give a monkeys what average he's on, sign him up leicester!
  10. That's correct my mistake. I stand with Mr Hemleys most weeks and I think even he gets confused with it all!
  11. I don't really know how drug testing works in speedway but I would just follow how other sports do it. You could do random tests but pretty much most athletes get tested regularly before the events they are participating in. I personally think a test before a meeting should be mandatory. Unless they already do this ? Someone care to explain how it works in speedway?
  12. Depends on your sources. All I will say is that the new potential owner was at the cubs meeting last Saturday..
  13. Vinne does seem take out everyone he races against . When I spoke to him about advice he's been getting from the senior riders he said he spoke to bomber. Belive it or not bomber told vinne to slow down!
  14. Thompson was second in the RS averages when we dropped him. I didn't say I blame drew kemp, I said it didn't help matters within the club or team cohesion. Plus wolves lost on a super heat so doesn't really count does it.
  15. What a shame to end the season this way. Everything seemed to start well for us. A few wake up calls at the start but we found our stride and looked formidable. Beating teams home and away looking like we could actually finish top. Surprisingly for lions fan considering our history in the top flight. I was always against the move up but thought I should embrace it before making a strong opinion. You'll find out what I now think down below. Then the first major disappointment. Nick Morris. There's only one person to blame and that's naughty Nick himself. Can't blame the club or management for that though. Second one has to be replacing Morris with batch. Stewart said himself it was a knee jerk reaction. A certain member of leicester speedway and regular poster seems to still be standing by the move stating there was no one else out there. Well there was and it was another clanger in Craig Cook. Better than batch il give em that but surely the club knew he his head was in the wrong place. Then there's Richie Worrall replacing bomber. Bomber wasn't doing a lot wrong in at the time. Remember this was a winning team. I wasn't against this move at first but we soon realised the team balance was completely shafted along with any sort of team bonding. Worrall is great at leicester but bomber was doing enough to justify staying. I forgot to mention dropping Dan Thompson for Kemp. That didn't help matters either looking back. So looking at this season what I can say is I feel let down. I've stated this many times before. You don't fix what ain't broken! Saturday nights, winning, good crowds along with a chance at silverware was a recipe for success. I generally don't see the pull of the prem. Seriously the riders are all the same but in different kevlars. It's just a different league with only a handful of top riders. The only riders I've gone wow at this year are fricke and Emil. So someone please tell me......why did we move up? Honestly I can't think of anything that justified the move. I'm not obsessed with top riders at the club. I just want a team that's stable and gives it there all. You can see why Wolves are so loyal to there riders. They are unbeaten at Monmore and you can get a connection to certain riders . OK should probably end this rant. Plus things could be worse. I'm hopeful leicester will be OK next year. I real feel for wolves fans along with the panthers. So I will probably head to bed now thinking of what could have been rather than where did it all go wrong?
