Er, Riss has ridden for Edinburgh which is very similar to Wolves and has the same track man! oh dear...................................

Perton Wolf Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 Leicester 14-10 up after 4 heats and deservedly so. Wolves' reserves are looking out of their depth yet again. Leicester's pair of reserves have already scored 8 between them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not ever going to be Masters/Lindgren. Maybe Thorsell, Howarth would be very harsh! Numbers game end of the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming there are 2 better signings out there of course that are committed to a full season. Greaves was always going to be a weak link and pretty much out his depth.(great gate in heat 4 at Leicester to hold 2nd for a lap). Clegg is needed to kick on for this line up to work - and that's assuming the top 5 are doing their job. I really thought Clegg had turned a corner at the tail end of last season.

Agreed, it's difficult to make even changes replacing them both IMO. Starke and Williamson maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean you've got 9.49 for 2 riders..... but I don't think you can rely on skornicki to score 7-8 every meeting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perton Wolf Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 Clegg and Greaves are literally half a lap behind at best nearly every single heat. It's one thing to struggle to score but to not even be competitive on your home track is embarrassing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perton Wolf Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 Leicester will have to feel hard done to there, the freak 5-0 in heat 10 was ultimately the difference. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevebrum Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 A lucky win in the end. How long do we persevere with the reserves who are both clearly struggling? Already said Leicester are the dark horses of the league this year so no surprise on this performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

full-throttle Posted April 3, 2017 Report Share Posted April 3, 2017 watching the updates and a few falls cost the Lions big time tonight, it could be a long season for Wolves at this rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
