Perton Wolf Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 How can Shovlar say Perks is a great little rider.Doubt if he would be saying that if he was turning out these scores for Poole.We can't make the same mistake again next season, starting with two weak reserves. Absolutely agree - team has been far too top heavy this season. Rode very well for Rye House. Perhaps he just hasn't been made to feel very welcome at Wolves. Seems like he has got all the support he needs to me, just hasn't turned up. Greaves has outscored him pretty much every meeting and he's a 2pt average rider.........

I think the Rebs have probably the top two at the moment. Rebels top five are unpredictable though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beowulf Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 Rode very well for Rye House. Perhaps he just hasn't been made to feel very welcome at Wolves. And I suppose you have spoken to Perks to confirm that he not been made welcome ? Nonsense as usual. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 And I suppose you have spoken to Perks to confirm that he not been made welcome ? Nonsense as usual.Strange that he scored so well at Rye House but hasn't for Wolves. Suprised Wolves fans haven't yet jumped on some type of conspiracy theory, considering he is a Poole asset. Or perhaps he struggles, like many do, on the Monmore track and with Wolves fans slagging him off on here, perhaps it has hit his confidence.

stevebrum Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 Rode very well for Rye House. Perhaps he just hasn't been made to feel very welcome at Wolves. It's his dreadful scores that aren't welcome. You heard yourself on Monday that he had a good reception. Sadly his promising start to the season isn't showing up since he joined us.

Absolutely agree - team has been far too top heavy this season. Greaves only scores in heat 2 nearly all his other points are gifted .

He is in essence a number 7 filling in for a number 6. If he can ride Rye House he should be able to ride Monmore. However, that hasn't happened, just the way it goes sometimes. Just like KK not being able to ride, well any track in the UK to be honest. However if gets double figures at Poole everyone will be laughing their socks off................including me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellis is thick skinned that's for sure. He isn't liked by many of his peers for whatever reason and doesn't seem to care less. Probably best to stop looking for excuses as to why he is performing dreadfully in a wolves jacket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaColette Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 How was Charles Wright in heat 15? 4th in the avesges and joint lowest (6th highest) scorer. Rules say top 3 by average or top 3 by score. Anyway, Somerset now 3 points behind Poole in 4th with a meeting in hand. Do we know who the meeting in hand is against?

Wolfsbane Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 Hate to stick the knife into a young lad trying to make his way in the sport, especially a young Brit but Perks is out of his depth. It isn't solely his fault, Adams and CVS have had a major brain fart thinking he was better than Starke or Ellis guesting. We'll qualify for the play offs comfortably, but if Riss doesn't make it fully fit it's all over red rover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur54 Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 Arrogant b******t as usual. No wonder Poole fans are hated. Shame as there are some sensible and knowledgeable Poole fans. You're not part of that group though. I am sensible and knowledgeable thank you very much,just stating will be back,as the history books show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfsbane Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 All that was ever asked of Greaves prior to the start of the season was to achieve his average and stay upright and scoop up any gift points. He's doing that. If Riss had stayed fit we'd be strolling it. CVS and Adams have screwed it up royally, asking Perks to do something his capabilities, at the moment, are not up to. Normal service, after 2016, has been resumed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Sweetman Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 I am sensible and knowledgeable thank you very much,just stating will be back,as the history books showSome Poole fans were saying the same thing last season,and will probably say the same next season if things don't go to plan.

Wolfsbane Posted August 9, 2017 Report Share Posted August 9, 2017 With certain Poole fans it's all about refusing point blank to admit their promoter & team manager have got it wrong. You can't defend the indefensible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
