Rye House at Wolves should one of our toughest tests particularly with so many track specialists i.e. Harris, Nicholls and Robson. At a pre-season talk-in for 2017 CVS was asked why he hadn't signed either of Harris or Nicholls. He didn't reply specifically but did say that he still had his two favourite guests available to him. In 2017, the scores at Monmore were 55-37 and 50-41 but of course Wolves had a good team, that barring injuries, I feel would have won the double.This year it appears that Harris  and Nicholls have not started well in their first two away matches and are out of form. It remains to be seen whether they will come back into form or are on a steady decline. There's no doubting that they have contributed much to British speedway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is painful and spoils the evening as I always get a headache. It is the only stadium I have ever had a problem with! Earplugs needed perhaps.   Or muffs. Have you thought about pruning your profile ?  Its a full life history and takes up half a page every time you post.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hackneyrocket Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Surely Max needs to be replaced ASAP way out of his depth. Thank goodness for NBJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely SPOT ON buddy. Been like that for a few seasons now. You add up and compare the combined scores of numbers 6 and 7 for each team in 8/10 meetings and that will be the difference between the two sides. Unless someone is injured then the max number of rides a reserve should be allowed during a meeting should be 5 instead of 7.

So they all count come September. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattfordfan Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Rye will be very good at home but woeful on the road. The modern day Lakeside of the top flight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BWitcher Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Just now, Mark said: Why is it nonsense ?     It's how you build your side. Some prefer to be top heavy with weaker reserves, others go more balanced ensuring always a strong reserve. It's not a recent thing, it's been that way for decades. It creates opportunity for astute management (which there is hardly opportunity for anymore) yet some want to sterilise the tactical options yet further. Jakobsen had seven rides tonight purely because of RR.  6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jakobsen had seven rides tonight purely because of RR.  I overlooked the RR tonight so get your point about Jabobsen's 7 rides tonight.   But I still think both reserves should take 4 rides each and not 5/3.     I also think when a rider goes through the tapes a reserve should not be allowed to take his place.  Go off 15 metres instead.
