Birmingham V Wolverhampton Playoff Semi Final 2nd Leg 30/09


Recommended Posts

Can see your point, but luck must play its part as far as injuries are concerned. Good that the management have resisted the urge to hit the "tinker" button though.

 

For once we have been a little bit lucky. If memory serves me rightly, only Jason Doyle has not missed a meeting because of injury. The 6 other riders have all picked up knocks along the way and we've had our share of guests and R/R, but to their credit, the management have not hit the panic button or made wholesale changes as they may have been tempted to do...so credit to them for that.

So Tai riding in the European championships but not here.

 

Great commitment from "Woffy Woffy Woffy"

 

It might actually count against Wolves if he rode, would he take as many risks in his current state and put a world title on the line ?.

Easy routine win by Brum against the playoffs weakest team.

 

You forgot the team that scrapped in because Peterborough were deducted points, easy mistake to make.

 

 

I thought the weakest team was Poole?

 

Its clear to anyone who hasn't got blue specs on.

 

 

Just a play on the troll Steve Brum's post on the Swindon V Poole thread.

 

Comedy troll of the day. Troll gets his bites, no longer hungry. :t:

Love the way that the Brummies are getting "bigged up" again, ready for a massive gloat if they slip up. :o Anyone who's seen Brummies v Wolves fixtures at Perry Barr over the years will know that they are close fought affairs with any result being possible at any time.

Yes, seems like there's only you and me being realistic enough to admit this on here. It's only half time with advantage to Birmingham. We simply cannot afford any complacency. It's not over by a long way, yet.

Who gives? A British world champ will be worth his weight in gold or should be, anyway.

As an aside, we could be looking at 4 2 wheel world champions this year, but how many members of Joe P will have heard of any of them?

Thanks for that.

 

Kind of leaves me wondering. Swindon on 1st May, away at Kings Lynn, were refused any kind of facility for Hans Andersen riding in the SEC qualifiers. Instead Lewis Blackbird had to ride at #1 for them. How can Wolves be granted a facility if Tai is fit enough to ride in the SEC yet too injured to ride in the EL play-off's the following day, bearing in mind that his guest replacement has already been announced? Either he is fit, or he isn't. Either you get "facilites" for SEC absences or you don't.

 

I don't blame him for being ambitious and going for all the titles that he can, whilst he can (life with Ward and Holder back next year will be a lot harder) but there has to be some consistency with how the BSPA treat these things. Still in CVS, Wolves have a promoter and a BSPA member who knows what's "in the best interests of British Speedway", don't we?

You know how these things work, no doubt when it comes to it Tai will sit out Monday as he will have aggravated the injury riding in the SEC and Puk will have been on standby just in case.

 

Personally I'm surprised he's considering riding at the weekend, I'd have thought he'd have a fortnight off and come back for the GP.

That's just the problem isn't it? We all know the corrupt way that these things work. CVS and Peter Adams are complicit in this escapade. They're proving themselves to be no more honourable than Fat Maud and Neil Muddleditch. The only difference is that CVS and Adams don't (yet) have hoards of Swindon fans (or Coventry fans, if they hadn't gone into hibernation for the winter) baying for their blood.

There must be little or no chance of him riding on Sunday with a World Championship begging just 6 days later. Be madness to risk it.

I'm leaving Tai out of this. He'll do what he's told by his manager - Peter Adams! It's the wheeler-dealing in the murky waters that is what's bothering me. Whether Tai rides on Sunday or not is somewhat irrelevant. It's the dodgy arrangements being made that matter here.

 

The other way of looking at the situation is that Tai's manager has pulled Tai out of the Brummies meeting, but hasn't pulled him out of the SEC! Said manager who also works for CVS is in cahoots with CVS to secure a guest for Tai for Monday, knowing already that Tai won't be fit for then, but miraculously that he will be fit the day before. Said CVS who is on the BSPA Management Committee, because he knows best what's "in the best interests of British Speedway", has engineered the availability of NKI as a guest for Tai who may or may not aggravate an injury in the SEC on Sunday, but probably has a "doctors note" anyway, Would someone NOT on the BSPA MC have been able to find such favours? I'm sure that Gary Patchett, Rosco & Co at Swindon must be wondering how on earth heaven and hell can be moved for Tai in respect of his SEC commitments when all they could do when Hans Andersen was in an SEC qualifier, was employ Lewis Blackbird.

 

Way I see it, it ain't just Matt Ford "playing to the rule book" is it?

And I suppose it's honourable to say that you're going to buy somone and then renege on the deal? Hyprocrite.

And who questioned Josh Auty,s doctors note,when he had sprained?suspected ? wrist injury last week.

Its common knowledge that Josh dosent like riding at Monmore,so very convniently get a track specalist to take his place.

You should take a look at your own promotion,before you start throwing blame at others

Absolute rubbish i cannot believe that,Auty is a in/out racer i cannot believe he would ever step down for the sake of it.Also he did score 8 pts in the British final so he is certainly capable of scoring points.Tully who i like alot rode ever so well but i fancied Auty would of scored against those reserves that night he wouldn't of though if he was carrying an injury.

Ben Barker in the League match in May announced at the last minute just before the parade not riding due to injury but rode 2 matches in 2 days 3 nights later no mention anywhere of said injury.
