Wolves -v Belle Vue 10th/11th October Ko Cup Final


Recommended Posts

in heat 15 he had both wheels over the white line on the first lap of the 3/4th bend and should have been excluded even a belle vue fan I spoke to said he did and he said he did the same a week or two ago so maybe that was why in heat 15 , don't know about heat 13

not all of youlove going by the belle vue facebook page

 

 

I followed the meeting on the wireless and the commentator did question whether he crossed the white line in 15, so maybe he did but there's no way the majority of Wolves fans could have seen that from the main stand. The reception he got after winning ht13 was clearly audible, loud boos and shouts of derision as he came round on the warm down.

 

I don't suppose it's a bad thing, as others have said the sport is short of 'villains' anyway. I can't agree with the comments that he thinks he's better than he is, if anything he's the opposite, self confidence doesn't come naturally to Craig, any decent judge of a character can see that every time he's interviewed, but we all know that speedway is all about confidence, so he tries to give that impression.

Either way he's earned his place in the GP series and we know for a fact he will represent GB with pride, here's hoping he has a successful maiden season and can cement himself into the series, tall order indeed but he's still improving.

Ah right thats the reason for the large section of fans doing V signs, masterbation signs and shouting foul language.

 

Wolverhampton trying attract families, I would never take my kids there.

 

Wolverhampton management have acknowledged they have an issue with their column in a programme in August warning fans of their behaviour.

It comes to something when Belle Vue fans are lecturing other teams about their fans bad behaviour .

Might be an idea to put your own house in order first before pontificating over the rest of us

On the subject of Birmingham - I've heard Ermolenko is involved and possibly Woffinden to some capacity too but I'm not 100% sure.

 

If Ermolenko is at Birmingham that will be a big disappointment given the news in the programme last night that we might need a new front man at Wolves.

They're announcing the new Birmingham owners during the interval at Perry Barr tonight apparently.

 

Whilst we're on the subject of Birmingham, Tony Mole finally retires tonight with the meeting in his honour. I'm sure that every Wolves fan wishes him all the best and thanks for his part in rescuing us, together with CVS, in the 80s :t::t::t:

I'm not sure he would go elsewhere though (even if the offer was better), he was on Twitter only a few days ago saying he wouldn't ride for anybody else but Wolves.

 

A Swindon fan asked him about contracts in regards to assets and what he would do if Wolves sold his contract. He said that his contract wouldn't be worth anything because he wouldn't ride for anybody else.

 

 

 

 

Good question but I think he is ultimately loyal to CVS too, so even if Adams was to move on (which I don't think he will anyway) then I don't think that would impact things.

yes I'd imagine that's right. UK money is small change and I doubt many other clubs would offers much more vast amount of money for him to even think twice.

working at Birmingham I've heard no rumours about Adams/Ermolenko being involved.

very well said.

Absolutely. A total legend for many clubs in the sport.

Back to tonight, very poor choice of guests, should be easy for the Aces, surely Danny King and Lasse Bjerre would be better as guests.

I would agree normally but apparently Wolves have little or no choice in this, it is simply a case of availability.

One drunk idiot who threw a plastic bottle was dealt with.

Really why wouldn't King or Lasse Bjerre not be available? Surely Lasse Bjerre would be a better choice than Erik Riss!

The Wolves site's preview today comments on how many riders have already put equipment in storage as well as those who have departed the UK.

Could be a delayed start if that's the case

 

Yes possible. Its worth noting that in semi v Swindon, it was reported to rain until 7pm, iy actually stopped about 7:20, they delayed start until 7:40 and we got all 15 heats. If the reports are correct tonight then looks like it will be on.

It's just stopping now with clear sky's behind. I would delay start till 8 or even half 8 to give extra timenfor track work.

 

We have had alot of rain this afternoon. There was only about 700 at wolves yesterday. Probably less today. Shame for a final
