  1. They are and they won't, exemplar Wolves 2015. What Ford and Middleditch do, in conjunction with their particular brand of skullduggery and manipulation, is do the best for their club whilst planning for the future, building from a position of strength. The majority of the rest meanwhile can't see past the next season. Not always. Why should the system have to support any promotion who have had their good times but have failed to build from a position of strength for the future and allowed the world to pass them by? The only way Wolves & others can catch up now is by moving the goal posts in their favour.
  2. So we go down to the lowest common denominator and punish success? Now that would be the death of the sport. It's up to the rest to aspire to be the best.
  3. News on the Winter Spin-in. http://www.wolverhamptonwolves.co/
  4. Unfortunately none of them include himself. Why is it every time someone mentions a burger van my mind immediately springs to Joe Screen
  5. The issue, at least for me, wasn't, and still isn't, what caused the ridiculous drop in his average, I have insufficient knowledge to make that judgement, but rather, when it was obvious early season that it wasn't working for him in the UK, Woffinden, CVS & Adams carried on with business as usual, costing the club any chance of a shot at the play offs.
  6. That puts to bed the Poole/Wolves or anyone else rumours to bed then. At least we won't be having a winter of will he/won't he.
  7. If that's correct then it'll be interesting to see which country he misses out on, Sweden or Poland?
  8. Yep, really, honestly. Slaughtered no, criticised yes, but ultimately his position would have been understood, at least by me anyway.
  9. All Woffinden had to do in 2014 was put his hands up early doors and say 'I've took on too much here, I'm not doing myself or the team any good, I need a break from the UK for the rest of the year' and people, including myself, would have been disappointed but ultimately would have understood his dilemma. Instead of which he carried on with a workload that he couldn't cope with with the resultant ridiculous drop in his average in the UK.
  10. But not his form for the club in 2014
  11. Interesting use of words in the OS report of Woffinden's win. 'Brilliant British.....' Not 'former Wolves rider' or 'Wolves asset' which for as long as I can remember are phrases they have always used for successes by anyone with a connection to the club. Reflected glory and all that. Something and nothing or....... Come to think of it maybe I was blind and/or drunk, or most probably blind drunk, but I didn't clock Adams in his pit last night??? http://www.wolverhamptonwolves.co/news.php?extend.2382
  12. The sport's been chasing the lowest denominator for years. The time for this was before the majority of the GP boys decided that there was life without the UK. As someone else has said, it just wouldn't be possible now due to lack of riders. Opportunity missed IMO.
  13. Just a timely statement would have done, either way. What is it with the governing bodies of this sport?
  14. Major decision coming for the guy. Does he want to have a shot at the bigtime or happy to be Les Collins. Best of luck whatever he decides.
  15. # Congrats to Poole. # Well done Aces. The new era starts here. .....Cookie, stop fannying around with the PL. It's now or never.
  16. Paul Starke 3 2/1 1/1 3 0 = 9+2 If Aces fans want to blame someone try CVS. He thought Bates was better than Starke and handed the latter to Poole on a plate ​
  17. I believe he took them (the goggles) back off the start marshall on the wind down lap Star Lady.
  18. Whether Newman was brave/silly to ride without goggles and his points from that race should/shouldn't be deducted mustn't be allowed to detract from the fact that BV fell into the 'let's alter the track 'cos Poole like it slick trap'. Silly, silly, silly. Middleditch complaining about Worrall cheating in heat 2, priceless. Of course he did, but then you'd know all about that wouldn't you Neil?
  19. After Monday night's fiasco with Batchel00R & the Danish version of Emile Heskey I'd think it is a stone cold cetainty
