Beowulf Posted April 3, 2022 Report Share Posted April 3, 2022 Teams from the official site:- WOLVERHAMPTON: Sam Masters, Luke Becker, Nick Morris, Ryan Douglas, Steve Worrall, Drew Kemp, Leon Flint.SHEFFIELD: Jack Holder, Craig Cook, Tobiasz Musielak, Kyle Howarth, Adam Ellis, Stefan Nielsen, Connor Mountain. Looking at the Tigers line-up it is clear to see why they are league favourites (with the bookies at least), Cook at 2! This will certainly be a stern test.I look forward to seeing Kyle Howarth again, he was a fine team man during his stint with Wolves, never gave less than 100% and was exciting to watch. Holder is no track expert but can get round well enough. Cook during his Belle Vue days gave us problems at Monmore.Musielak is another old boy and Ellis is more than quick enough, although he tends to rely on his gating. Perhaps we need Kemp and Flint to outscore their opposite numbers to give us a chance. A tight encounter, with hopefully a Wolves win, 2-4 points ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Wolves reserve pairing will have the edge over their Sheffield counterparts. This could prove crucial re the final outcome. A lot could depend on which CC turns up and I hope Steve Worrall scores well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You say about Cook being at 2 but Becker at 2 is just as strong, if not stronger! I'd go for Wolves by 8. I think this is a perfect time to ride against Sheffield, before they have really got going imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king Posted April 3, 2022 Report Share Posted April 3, 2022 I can only see a home win for the Wolves although I think we could run them close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had 4 rides and was taken out of one to give Joe Thompson a ride, and then given the ride back in heat 15. We obviously need him to do better than that against Sheffield.

Difficult in those type of meetings as you don't know who is testing different engines etc. I would expecting him to be pushing for a HL spot this year. Actually you seen to have 5 ready made HL's!

Col Posted April 3, 2022 Report Share Posted April 3, 2022 Will Musielak remember how to ride Monmore? Howarth & Cook should score well but can't see it suiting Ellis or Holder particularly, but should have the beating of Wolves engine room. Probably Wolves reserves only chance to score big against an equally weak reserve pairing on a track I doubt either relishes vising. Becker to win the golden heat, with crucially Ellis last. Can see the reverse fixture being humbling for the Monmore men. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreverblue Posted April 4, 2022 Report Share Posted April 4, 2022 I think this will be very close and a Sheffield win would not be a shock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beowulf Posted April 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2022 I am 1 mile from the track. It is now dull and overcast, the ground is wet and there is persistent (not heavy) fine rain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTT Posted April 4, 2022 Report Share Posted April 4, 2022 Steve Worrall riding at No.5 with weak reserves is a baffling decision by Pete Adams. Basically cost Wolves the meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col Posted April 4, 2022 Report Share Posted April 4, 2022 Well done Sheffield. You have to love it when a rider CVS & Adams are too stubborn to bring back returns too haunt them. That's the Northern section of the League cup decided. And I thought Sheffield had the weakest reserves, out performed Wolves reserves at Monmore. I do hope Kemp does kick on this season.

Very worrying signs tonight for Wolves fans when the reserves struggle to score points against Sheffield's at Home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think Nick has to be at 5 til Steve settles in, tough ask for him to be at 5 straight away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got to feel for Stevie tbh because he's being thrown in at the deep end by riding as a HL when he's average says he should be riding at No.2.
