Wolves v Leicester 24/04


Recommended Posts

Hoping for a good turn out following last week's devastating news, but looking at the forecast think the rain will win the day.If it does get the go-ahead it will be much closer than the Lynn and Aces thrashings, with the Lions having quite a few track specialists in their line-up. Going for a 10 point home victory .

Weather forecast looks iffy. I think the key factor is Wolves can't do any trackwork during the day to mitigate rain damage.

Forecast doesn't look that iffy... would have been nice for them to give a reason ;)

You would have thought with this being the first home meeting since the terrible news of last week that they would have moved heaven and earth to get it on, while interest in "the story" is still high... local TV in attendance etc.

Maybe the track is waterlogged though... we just don't know

Very wet in Wolverhampton last two days.  Met office predicting another downpour at 16:00, no sun, correct decision.

I wonder why Wolves didn't say that?

Phil you so wrong as it's raining now. So right call

But we don't know why it's been called off?

We do now...

"A mixture of heavy weekend rain, low temperatures and the prospect of afternoon showers have led to the early postponement."

Fair enough :)

Don't know what could possibly be "suspect" about this match being off, 2 full strength teams (I count using Nicholls as being at full strength) plus loads of publicity over the stadium, could have led to a massive crowd. I'm sure the last thing Wolves would want is a postponement!
