Wolverhampton 2013


Recommended Posts

ADAM - Worryingly has only had 35 meetings in the past 2 seasons. Not confident on a bike yet and very rusty.

 

- If Sam`s visa is denied? Likely will need 2 changes however.

 

 

Adam actually rode in 47 meetings in 2011 and 47 meetings in 2012, but the problem to me maybe is that he has done less than 30 meetings in the top leagues in Sweden, Poland and Britain during the last two seasons and struggled in each one while the rest of the meetings are either in lower divisions, open meetings or individuals where he has been against weaker opposition.

 

 

At Wolves, Adam always seems to up his game and hopefully this will be the case again as he can be a real match winner. However I have a horrible feeling that we may never see the old Adam again and riding alongside Ricky may not be the best option and at present I would take the gamble of riding with Adam at #2 alongside Tai where he can hopefully pick up vital third places and do well in heat 8.

 

I would have also kept the strong pairing of Ty Proctor and Freddie together, leaving Ricky Wells at #5 for the first few meetings at Belle Vue and Eastbourne where he has done reasonably well before. ..... 1 Tai ... 2 Adam ... 3 Freddie ... 4 Ty ... 5 Ricky ... 6 Ludvig ... 7 Jacob

 

 

 

It is very interesting and I can see Mikael Max + A.N.Other replacing Masters if he doesn't get a visa + Adam Skornicki sooner than later. Feel sorry for Adam Skornicki and who knows what might happen.

 

 

Should there be two changes, it sadly looks odds on that Adam would be the most likely rider to be sacrificed and then you have to look at an option of getting in a strong reserve rider like Stuart Robson who loves Wolverhampton or if available get Mikkel Michelsen who is signed up at Leszno in Poland alongside Freddie..

 

 

Problem then iswhich 5.5 rider would you be able to get in ?

A few months ago Adam was fine, a good signing, not a worry etc. yet before meeting #1 you all seem to want him sacked lol. Why don't you have opinions of your own and not change them based in what your promoters say? And that's not a dig at Wolves fans, the cast majority of speedway fans seem to be blinded by their promoters "views".

Just going by what Adam said himself.

Most of my offline friends were disappointed with the signing of Adam. They wanted Miskowiak, because his average was a point less, but when I reminded them that unless we had have signed Hougaard, who else a point higher would be stronger than Masters? I guess with Masters now unlikely to be here for a few weeks at least, they are looking at other options. Hope Adam has a good season personally, always more fun when he's doing well, seems to spill into the rest of the team!

I don't think that's the case SCB. There were a crop of fans who weren't happy when we signed Adam and that hasn't changed.

I'm sure there were, but not on here. Yet suddenly they're all coming out of the woodwork. Like I said, not a Wolves thing but a general speedway/BSF thing - seems to be considered an act of treason to disagree with your club/promoter.

CVS acknowledged that his signing wasnt universally popular.

I most certainly concur with that as it happens.

8th July 2010 - Ipswich 44 Wolverhampton 46

 

That was the last time Wolves won away from home in a league meeting with a team including Fredrik Lindgren, Tai Woffinden, Ludvig Lindgren, Ty Proctor and R/R for Adam Skornicki ..... loyalty pays off after 32 months ;) ....... in the Ipswich team that day was Ales Dryml

 

 

 

Looking forward to Tuesday and pleased to see Ludvig back in the Old Gold N Black at reserve where he deserves to be

Great to see the Adam of old at Monmore last night. With Tai and Freddie both looking fast, the rest of the team are doing enough to win nicely at home and at least keep it close away.

 

No doubt we will drop some points at home but I'm pretty confident we can pick up a fair few more away still, so 36 at home with roughly 14 away (got 4 already) gives us 50 points and in the play off zone ..... hopefully.

 

 

Just hope they sign Ludvig full time A S A P

Visa appeal overruled.

It seems that your wish have become reality.

 

Wolves have signed Swedish racer Ludvig Lindgren for the rest of 2013 after Sam Masters lost his appeal for a UK visa.
