Wolves V Belle Vue 22/4/14


Recommended Posts

As a neutral I thought Wolves were unlucky. Beats me how "Roller Boy " Cook gets away with it race after race and poor Proctor gets pulled back for a genuine good start.

 

As Bagpuss said Cook getting exposed by the new format, yet he is still being touted as a Team GB rider.

Does this mean Im allowed to stay?

You have so many aliases and pseudonyms that you would pop up anyway. ;) The Aces did very well and it was a good meeting so that's what really matters. Regards. Alan.

Some good racing tonight. Woffy is struggling and he isn't using fitness as an excuse but admits it's just down to him / form. Terrific from him. Honesty certainly is something a lot of sportsmen could learn from rather than blaming everything else.

 

Woffy really is a great guy

Contrast Woffinden's attitude with a certain other British Grand Prix rider…

 

What a great meeting, that's two exciting encounters out of two.

 

Hugely impressed by Nicholls, can someone ask him to re-think his international retirement? Palm Toft also looks like a shrewd signing on a circa 3 point average.

 

For Wolves, I though Wells was their standout rider, although Thorsell and Morris also deserve credit.

 

If only all league meetings were that good.

Good meeting tonight and close, as expected. Real shame for the Aces that they couldn't take the win - perhaps the change in riding order when the new averages come out might see a change in form for Cook as he's underperformed so far. Nielsen and Palm Toft both did well and for Wolves, Thorsell, Pawlicki & Wells had their moments.

Well, he probably still is being touted as a GB rider. Who else is there? Kennett, Barker? Or new rising stars Harris and Nicholls? Don't get me wrong, I'm no Cook fan, it just demonstrates how near the bottom of the barrel we are.

Well done to the Aces on that draw. What has happened to Woffy this season. He only seems to be half the rider he was last year.

I think he is still suffering from all the injuries from last year and this year when he crashed out at Leicester

Good draw for the Aces - glad they got the 5-1 in the last. Excellent first bend by Scotty.

Glad Zagar had some race wins - I always like his interviews with Charlie. Good racing in most heats which meant it was definitely more interesting than the borefest in Madrid.

Yeah, let's not interview the World Champion, the guy who the sport should be using to build upon as much as possible. Good call.

keep your hair on, I didn't say don't interview the World Champion, I was talking about Sky's interviews in general just happened to mentioon Tai as the match tonight is Wolves v Belle Vue, could be anyone just not the same rider everytime, there are other riders in the team

Congrats BV but how did you not get all 3? :o

 

3rd heat leaders struggling as predicted by many. Proctor, Cook, Schlein, etc.

Cook is Belle Vue No2, Nicholls is their third heat leader
