drew2 Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Despite the scoreline this was a pretty decent meeting with plenty of passing, no re-runs and no fallers! JD and Jack may have maxed out but it wasn't easy as Doyley came from the back at least twice and i reckon you will see Jack's stunning chase and pass on Kyle in heat 13 on Speedway GB website very soon! Both Rebels had so much speed to pass as they wanted/needed, inside or outside. All the Rebels were solid with the three guests putting in a good shift. NBJ sussed the track quickly on what is possibly his first visit there and Todd was very good all night. Adam started well but think had a bike issue in heat 14. Nico and Aaron had solid if not spectacular nights and were both well on the pace. For Wolves Thorsell was awful for first two races but got better and had some good tussles with Doyley. Howarth tried his heart out for not much reward, Andersen was poor but might have had bike problems too. Masters for a former Somerset rider wasn't as good as i had expected him to be. Morris looked good when he gated and Sarjeant had a good ride as well. Only 3 points coming from Rory's R/R was the downfall. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, you said that the Colts could beat Wolves on Monday (only partly in joke, I suspect). You're right that they had everything to ride for, but the chances of them actually getting anything were pretty small. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiderman1 Posted August 30, 2018 Report Share Posted August 30, 2018 imagine if somerset had Lawson and thier reserves allen and S R , looking good for crown if doyley stays fit and on it like he has been ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g13webb Posted August 30, 2018 Report Share Posted August 30, 2018 I expected an home win but thought Wolves would put up a better show than that. I noticed the Rebels used 3 guests that scored half their pints ( just about) and that Rory rides only brought in a few. Sometimes things just fall into place,. Wolves, just like Poole, were last night in the wrong place at the wrong time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FAST GATER Posted August 30, 2018 Report Share Posted August 30, 2018 I think Wolves will have a better season next year they are still adjusting to life without PK (on and latterly more off the track )no Freddie this season has had an impact but they are relatively young side and will be up there next year I am sure .

I’ll have whatever you both were drinking. As plenty have pointed out our away form has been pathetic. In with a chance with many away meetings until the 2nd half then fall away badly. You suddenly believe we are going to start winning away now? We had, realistically no chance since last Wednesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only lost by six last time we were there. Even a pt from the meeting would have put some pressure on Belle Vue who without Bewley are no guarantees to win at home to Somerset. Wolverhampton had absolutely everything to race for in the race for the play-offs. Their previous form is irrelevant. What chance we 'realistically' had of winning is irrelevant. I have not said anything about 'suddenly believing' we would start winning away.. even if I had, it would be irrelevant. The indisputable fact is Wolverhampton had everything to race for and your comment suggesting otherwise was ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You call it shocking, I call it realistic. our away form this year is completely indicative of what we expected from last night. up until last Wednesday I shared your view but the dreadful performances sealed our fate there and then. Mathematically we could still qualify before last night and can still. With Somerset missing key riders last night you would have thought it was a prime chance to get points, check the result to see just how likely our away form will help us make the top 4. whoever makes the top 4 will out of the chasing pack will be complete fodder for the much more inform top 3. If we had turned all those great early first half away matches into at least a point we would be a top 4 side by now. Our away form has put paid to that. You clearly have more faith in the team if you seriously believed we had a chance of getting anything last night never mind still making the top 4. id prefer to keep it realistic.

Stop blabbering nonsense. Being realistic, the form of a team and any other irrelevant info you've typed is an entirely different conversation. You said Wolverhampton had nothing to race for. They did. You were wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
