Wolves 2017

[Dandelion]

Lindgren 10.09

Thorssell 9.88

Masters 8.97

Palm Toft 6.98

Bjerre 6.44

Klindt 5.42

??? 2.00

 

49.78

 

Until we know what the points limit is when the first set of new averages come out (probably a talk in question as no one seems to be letting on) it's hard to know whether to go with a 2 pointer is the way to go. I can't/won't believe that Matt Ford is going to stick with his 2 pointer for the whole season. You just know he's got an 'upgrade' plan.

Bjerre signed for Coventry

I'd like this team Although the less teams Ludvig ride for the better, because the busier his schedule seems to be the worse he seems to get, and that's coming from one of his biggest fans

 

1. Fredrik Lindgren 10.09 (On his fancy Swiss engines)

2. Ludvig Lindgren 7.69 (On his brother's fancy Swiss engines)

3. Jacob Thorssell 9.88

4. Rasmus Jensen 6.14/Kyle Newman 6.31 (If Poole don't take him)/Nicolai Klindt 5.42 (If Poole don't take him)

5. Sam Masters 8.97

6. Max Clegg 4.34

7. Zach Wajtknecht 2.63 (If Somerset don't take him) (Maybe Josh Bailey 2.05 if they do take him and then MPT 6.98 or Erik Riss 6.85 at 4)

After reading this forum for years, I thought i'd finally post something..

 

I have two options for what I feel would be a decent team depending on whether you want to give someone like JPB a go.

 

OPTION 1

1. Freddie 10.09

2. Jacob 9.88

3. Sam 8.97

4. Ty Proctor 6.68

5. Klindt - 5.42

6. Clegg - 4.34

7. Bewley - 4.00

TOTAL - 49.38

 

OPTION 2

1. Freddie 10.09

2. Jacob 9.88

3. Sam 8.97

4. Ricky Wells - 7.92

5. Ty Proctor 6.68

6. Clegg - 4.34

7. JPB - 2.00

TOTAL - 49.88

 

I don't profess to be an expert but still think Ty has something to offer especially on that average and Ricky always gave his all even though his average is a bit of a gamble. We would not be particularly strong at reserve but the top five looks decent

Swap Williamson for a 2 pointer and it fits.

Indeed, I'm just a bit apprehensive at leaving us too weak at reserve. Although I see Poole have gone down the route of having a 2 pointer!

 

I don't think Joonas will sign anyway to be honest which is fine. He did OK for us but never seemed to get totally to grip with Monmore, to my liking anyway.

Just clocked the Coventry thing. Oh well, move on.

 

The Riss brothers have, shall we say, come in for a bit of criticism from the Edinburgh promotion after last season for always being knackered due to their heavy schedules.

Plus Erik pulled out of the Olympique after initially accepting the booking. I don't believe it was an injury and that sort of stuff doesn't go down well with CVS. I may be wrong about that but I'm sure some kind soul will correct me if I am

There seem to be few hints on the Poole thread about Klindt. As we know Ford loves grabbing bargain averages, so I think we can count him out.

Don't be too hasty to dismiss.

 

I would like him at Poole but checking his profile and doing some digging I see he has clubs signed for 2017 in Poland (Nice PL 1 so no restriction on countries he can ride) Sweden and even Denmark (Wed track). he has also been appointed Captain of his Danish team.

 

If he signs for Poole my first thought was fixture clash on Wed as its difficult enough them trying to work Hans Andersons Danish fixtures let alone a second Dane with same problem.

 

I wonder if he may have been the Dane Matt Ford was referring to when he said he had tried to sign a Dane who had ridden UK before (unnamed) who most assume was Kenneth Bjere. He couldn't sign the unnamed Dane due to Danish fixture clashes.Maybe it was in fact Klindt who has the real attractive low average so one ace reserve possibility.

 

It's just a thought.

[Wolfsbane]

I guess that Nic Klindt will ride where Nic Klindt wants to ride. If it ain't Wolves then the loan fee will go towards paying the wages of those who do want to. That being said if CVS allows one his own assets on a false average to go elsewhere I'll be amazed.

I would not mind him being at Swindon, a good hard trying rider on a good average.

It's only november but I guess it's ABP time again

[INCOGNITO]

Wolves have their top two secured and Max Clegg is sure to be added shortly and so should Sam Masters if doubling up works out and any red tape can be cleared, so there is 17.11 likely to be left for the three spaces left by Woffinden, Karlsson and almost certainly Howarth so they will be considerably weaker than the title winning seven.

 

With heat leaders secured it is two second strings and a reserve required to finish off the team but which way they go is the mystery everyone tries to work out. Will it be three riders of equal ability or two strong signings and a new 2.00 reserve possibly from Birmingham or Cradley squads in the National League. Batchelor, Schlein, Howarth or Sedgman would be decent back up and

 

Nicolai Klindt at 5.42 is the bargain and a Wolves asset which should be one of the first on the books but think he may be looking at a track that races on a different night and if there is a beach nearby, even better. Tobiasz Museilak is a asset and showed some of his potential last season in Sweden and in Poland has switched to the same track as Lindgren on a Sunday. As a second string he should be a decent signing and looking at the others around that figure,

 

Dimitri Berge, Erik Riss and Rory Schlein would form a strong top five but mean a low ranking reserve with Clegg. If they are looking at a stronger reserve, Simon Lambert or Kai Huckenback are around five and worth considering but that leaves just about 12 for the last two and but signing both and one from Berge, Riss or Museilak would be a more balanced seven

Some interesting names - however neither Klindt nor Batchelor would be in my team as they don't get on well with the Monmore track.

[superguest]

Assuming Fred, Jacob, Sam and Max are retained...

 

Tobiasz, Nicolai and Ash Morris all have unfinished business. However, if we can secure a decent 2pter - we could go for Proctor over Klindt.

[Col]

Knowing CVS & Adams, I will be amazed if Clegg isn't the lowest averaged rider in their team for next year.

[T.N.T.]

As reserves are no longer protected a strong reserve pairing can be an advantage or disadvantage depending on the format.

 

Not having protected rides is going to be hard for the low ranked riders as they will be now looking at picking up vital third places against second string visitors

 

Looking at what has been posted so far getting Berege would be good but I can't help thinking Museilak would be worth a gamble and signing those two would leave just enough for Danny Ayres or Arthur Sissis alongside Clegg.

[Tommy Sweetman]

If you believe everything you read on the Poole site,and Klindt is heading for the south coast,then there needs to be a re-think on our plans for next season.

 

Nic will miss a fair few meetings for the Pirates,has he as already signed a two year contact to captain Esbjerg in the Danish league.

 

 

Looking through all the averages now(minus Klindt)the best I can come up with whats left is ***************************

 

Lindgren----10.09

Todd Kurtz ----- 5.76

Masters ---- 8.88

Palm Toft ---- 6.98

Thorssell ----- 9.88

Clegg ------ 4.34

Dan Bewley ---- 4.00

 

Total ------- 49.93

 

Belle Vue will probably use Bewley if they run,But if not,hes done pretty well in the 3 meetings at Monmore last season.

 

Arthur Sissis and Matt Williamson are alternatives,both fit within the points limit.

[fish keeper]

Do we not have to have 2 british riders in the team.

I thought that was only in the Championship

If that is the case i would give Arthur Sissis ago along with clegg

[BWitcher]

I guess that Nic Klindt will ride where Nic Klindt wants to ride. If it ain't Wolves then the loan fee will go towards paying the wages of those who do want to. That being said if CVS allows one his own assets on a false average to go elsewhere I'll be amazed.

 

It wouldn't be the first time though would it?

[Mr Bump]

All premiership and championship teams must have a minimum of 2 British riders in their team in 2017. Blimey
