Unfortunately I couldn't make it to the Green tonight, but didn't find out there was no-one doing the updates until now, otherwise I'd have volunteered. Apologies folks. Fingers crossed for a good win.

Ikey will post a full report in the next day or so, but briefly for anyone who couldn't make it...
An excellent night's speedway at the Green. Well prepared track, some great racing and a big win for a rejuvenated Wolves team.
Scott Nicholls - a superb guest performance. Thrilling riding, particularly his passes of Lee Richardson in heat 6 and Leigh Adams in heat 13. Apparently he's guesting again for us at Peterborough... great. Probably the best crowd reaction a Coventry rider has ever got at the Green. Hard to think of him as a Coventry rider though isn't it?
KP - A solid performance. Made a fine start in heat 1 but fell on the 2nd bend. After that he rode well, beating an opponent in each race.
Johnno - Dreadfully slow in his first two rides especially when surrendering 3rd place to Davidsson in heat 5. Found more speed in his last two races and just pinched 2nd place on the line in heat 12... or did he? Still a long way short of what is expected from him though.
David - An absolutely stunning performance. I'd say his best night of the season - hard to remember him riding better for the Wolves. Brilliant pass of Leigh Adams on the 2nd bend of heat 5 and then outpaced him! Comprehensively beat Richardson 3 times in heat 9 (the first two were rerun) then came from the back in heat 15 to pass Richardson on the line. Superb stuff David!
Freddie - His best match for Wolves for several weeks. Looked fast even when behind, and he pressurised Adams into a mistake in heat 11 before pulling away for a great win. His heat 13 engine failure was due to a plug lead coming loose during the race - bad luck as he looked poised to pass Richardson at the time.
Magnus - Not a happy night. Didn't look comfortable, not sure how fit he is yet...
Ronnie - Wow! Looked fast, fearless and very confident... if this is what a spell at reserve can do then great! Missed the gate in heat 12 and rode the first lap right round the fence to pass all 3 riders, which summed his night up. Excellent.

MM2 - I've had a PM from USAWOLF who would like to be part of the "Live Updates" team if we are really desperate ( like on Monday), Even though he should be working! I'll put his number in the forum phone.
