Wolves v Lakeside (EL) - 11.08.08

[schumi]

Are teams both at full strength? With Lubos back down at reserve this could be a close one.

Assuming all Lakeside riders came through todays meetings in Poland unscathed (which I believe they did), the Hammers should be at full strength.

I'm hoping that Sky will decide to change their broadcast from Kirkmanshulme Lane to Monmore Green at the last minute owing to the 'Coventry Crisis'. This will make far better television!!

Hefenbrock has picked up a hand injury, so R/R operates for him, and it's possible Kenneth Hansen is currently the busiest man in Europe.

Wolves:

1..F Lindgren
2..A Dryml
3..N-K Iversen
4..R/R
5..D Howe
6..K Hansen
7..N Klindt

Hammers:

1..A Jonsson
2..L Lanham
3..A Shields
4..J Kylmakorpi
5..J Davidsson
6..R Kling
7..L Tomicek

Meeting rained-off.

I'm assuming that today's meeting is the re-run of this abandoned one, so I'll not start a new thread.

Wolves:

1..F Lindgren
2..A Dryml
3..N-K Iversen
4..J-B Monberg
5..D Howe
6..N Klindt
7..K Hansen

Lakeside:

1..A Jonsson
2..L Lanham
3..A Shields
4..J Davidsson
5..J Kylmakorpi
6..R Kling
7..L Tomicek

Edit: although according to a post on the Hammers forum, Jonsson was "battered and bruised" yesterday and is taking the week off to prepare for the GP?

Edward Kennett is guesting for Andreas!!!

Congratulations to Jonas Davidsson on his paid maximum which helped the Hammers on their way to a 43-47 win at Monmore Green. Edward Kennett not quite up to Andreas' standards, but a poor show from Dryml (2+1) and Howe (2+1), combined with 10 points each for Shields and Kling meant that Eddie's 6 points were enough for the visitors to get over the winning line.

That's a shameful performance from Wolverhampton. A good show from the Hammers, no doubt, but their weakened side should've been beaten by the Wolves. It looks like a pathetic display from the Monmore Green side.
