  1. At least Wolves should be in Mr. Vatcher's good books by giving a booking to an up and coming young English prospect!
  2. I was thinking Ben B was on Wolves 'do not use' list after dropping out previously at no notice! So a Championship riders select line-up from Oxford, Poole, Scunny, Berwick & Plymouth masquerade as a Premier team from Wolverhampton .... argh!!!!
  3. Understand, but hasn't the SCB now downgraded Luke to 75% of that figure?
  4. Cheers. It was the Belle Vue preview having Justin Sedgmen (G) 7.11 that threw me!
  5. Does the ruling now mean that Justin Sedgperson can't ride for us at Belle Vue tomorrow as a guest for Luke Becker? As it's a 12 noon start is there enough time to get a new 'lower average' guest. or does it become rider replacement. If R'R then are the replacements based on Luke's average or the 25% off figure? Add in the current state of Wolves' machinery over this last week and we might be out of the Cup circa 3pm on 'Coronation Bank Holiday Day'. Then Sheffield (H) the week after can be League (A/B or is it 1/2 these days) or even a challenge which would give us a chance to see Bomber or Scotty for a change! It used to be 'moving the goal posts' now its 'moving the white lines'.
  6. Yet again another success story created by the Promotors' "Rule Book of Broken Integrity". We can have the utter farce of only seven teams in the League and each team more than likely to have seven double-uppers put together and called a 'team',. But now because Luke Becker (our only non double upper) broke his leg at the 'wrong time' we have an average reduction for him. I'm so glad 'integrity' is their watchword. When do Wolves chuck the towel in?
  7. Might it have been better to say the pit gate was broken and couldn't be repaired in time???
  8. Will this be known as ,'BusterGate' ?
  9. In the 60's with Unipart you would have checked the points and distributor cap first!
  10. Yipes.. just got back from a funeral... Seen this... didn't know I'd attended two ☹️
  11. Wasn't he one of the 50 phone calls Peterborough made then?
  12. Wolves would possibly have used Chris Harris to replace Luke Becker, but Chris Harris is already replacing Nicki Pedersen. It's in the best interests of the sport that Chris Harris has his 28 day facility extended whereby he can guest for other clubs for a limit of only 28 days per month. Scott Nicholls and Rory Schlein should be given the same facility, If not the integrity of the sport will be seriously at risk.
  13. Just heard my first, "It could be racing out of the top drawer!"
  14. All councils and politicians will be proactive with local elections coming up. At one time there was talk of the wholesale market at the back of the stadium being relocated. Is that area an option?
  15. Harry Truman, Doris Day, Red China, Johnnie Ray South Pacific, Walter Winchell, Joe DiMaggio Joe McCarthy, Richard Nixon, Studebaker, television North Korea, South Korea, Marilyn Monroe
  16. I've tried: 1: Bingo rhymes... "Ole the Bee #3"..."#48 fast from the gate". 2: Scrabble values 3: Place in the averages! No joy... could I have the "Lion Wall" instead! The only positive was realising there was at least 100 First Division riders!
  17. The local Express & Star has a more of a CVS report / status. I wonder if any fellow Wolves fans / Supporters Committee etc have any thoughts, plans to fight this as a community loss. I was of the view that Monmore Green had a sporting covenant on it and it was this, that prevented a Ladbroke Casino appearing! Sad times.
  18. This was flagged up in October last year according to the Greyhound press.
  19. Trouble is its Rohan Lindgren and Freddie Tungate!
  20. As Private Eye said "The City Of Screaming Tyres"
  21. Great question. Does 'doubling up' under the same promotion reduce the time period from ten years to five?
  22. Does 660 residences on the site mean high rise towers and parking for ten cars?
