THE DEAN MACHINE Posted August 23, 2022 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 9 minutes ago, wtf said: Completely agree, wolves used to be a great track when there was the Karlsson corridor AND an outside line. Now the outside line has all but disappeared it's just 4 guys fighting for the kerb most of the time. In the past used to get to around heat 6 and the outside developed and riders could ride the track "big" and then you had some terrific battles. Whilst I understand a lot of the home riders want it how it is now, and I get that winning teams and home advantage etc is important, it has lost a lot of it's entertainment value. The adverse camber is worse than rye house used to be, It never was like that in the past up till about 7 years ago and was quite shocked to see how bad it is today, nothing wrong with the shape of wolves but it only has 3/4 of the bends usable and imo that makes for not great racing 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigcatdiary Posted August 23, 2022 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 It was entertaining only because it was close, the racing was typical for Monmore with most races decided by the first corner. I thought it was a strange decision for Sheffield to use R/R with this match the only one taking place but to be fair 9+1 was a good return, Masters didn’t look or sound fit enough so like Kelvin I was surprised Adams put him into heat 15.

It's a particularly poor camera angle that they use for the majority coverage at Wolves and doesn't show the racing in the best possible way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noaksey Posted August 23, 2022 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 I know when Glyn Taylor was doing the Wolves track he was going to sort the drop off to the fence on turns 3 and 4. I did the track walk with PK and Fred at PK's testimonial and they said they hoped it would be fixed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheffield would have already declared their line-up before KL was postponed, so they only had the choice of King, Tungate, or Batchelor, or one of the injured/CBA Peterborough riders (not including Harris).

To be honest he never looks well to me, looks so pale. I have seen more colour on a scots man on a beach in Spain! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wouldn't have scored 6+2 away at Wolves for Lynn To be fair he scored a paid max at home to the Panthers in May. Last meeting for Lynn at Monmore he scored 5 from 4, compared to his his 6 from 5 last night Edited August 23, 2022 by Bald Bloke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
