WOLVES 47 KING'S LYNN 43
WOLVERHAMPTON boss Peter Adams breathed a massive sigh of relief after seeing his side edge out King’s Lynn 47-43 in another Monmore thriller.
Tai Woffinden (12+1) and guest Davey Watt (10+1) won the meeting with a 5-1 maximum in the last race after a tense battle. Said Adams: “It was a thrilling finish and it was nice to see Woffy (Tai Woffinden) back to something like his best.
“I must also pay tribute to Davey Watt, our guest for the injured Freddie Lindgren, who did a great job for us and would have scored more but for a puncture in his first race.
“We could and should have got all three points but we have had to settle for two because we threw some points away. It's a relief to win on the night and that seems to be a common theme at Monmore Green these days, last heat deciders are the norm."
Parrys International Wolves looked comfortable at one stage but King’s Lynn, with Danish World Cup star Mads Korneliussen in fine form, bounced back and took the meeting down to the wire.
WOLVERHAMPTON: Tai Woffinden 12+1, Davey Watt 10+1, Ty Proctor 7+1, Ricky Wells 6+1, Peter Karlsson 6, Ludvig Lindgren 4+1, Lubos Tomicek 2+1

WOLVES 49 EASTBOURNE 41
TAI Woffinden romped to his first maximum of the season as Wolverhampton edged out Elite League title hopefuls Eastbourne 49-41 in another Monmore thriller on Monday.
Woffinden scored 15 and Swedish Grand Prix star Freddie Lindgren was paid for the lot with 14+1 from his five rides.
It was a close scoreline throughout and a maximum from Lindgren and skipper Peter Karlsson in Heat 13 set up the victory charge for the Parrys International Wolves.
Woffinden won the penultimate race and then partnered Lindgren for a maximum in the last to claim all three points.
Boss Peter Adams said: “The best time to go eight points up I guess is when they can’t come back at you, so Heat 15 was perfect!
“I’m very pleased and the priority now is to ensure we keep a proud record at home which has seen us lose only one league meeting in three years. We have to beat Birmingham and Belle Vue in the next two weeks to ensure that happens.”
WOLVERHAMPTON: Tai Woffinden 15, Freddie Lindgren 14+1, Peter Karlsson 9+1, Ty Proctor 7+2, Ricky Wells 2+1, James Grieves 2 Lubos Tomicek 0.
EASTBOURNE: Cameron Woodward 9+2, Lewis Bridger 9+1, Simon Gustafsson 8+2, Bjarne Pedersen 5+1, Timo Lahti 5+1, Joonas Kylmakorpi 5+1, Lukas Dryml R/R.

WOLVES 48 BIRMINGHAM 45
TERRIFIC Tai Woffinden continued his blistering form with a full house in Wolverhampton’s tense 48-45 win over Birmingham at Monmore on Monday.
Woffinden went through the card with a 15-point haul in a derby clash which Parrys International Wolves seemed to have under control.
But a late rally from the Perry Barr side saw them take it to a last heat decider and it was Woffinden who was the home hero.
The meeting was rushed through because of rain falling constantly but the track held up remarkably well and both sides deserve great credit for getting a result.
Woffinden won the last two heats to seal the result for the Monmore men who breathed a huge sigh of relief and remain on course to preserve an impressive record of just one home league defeat in three years.
Ty Proctor battled through the pain barrier after a weekend crash at Eastbourne – including a brilliant third-to-first swoop in Heat 8 – to score two wins in his three outings.
And even though youngster Joe Haines failed to score, he was well and truly on the pace with some determined racing.
Said Proctor: “It’s very uncomfortable, the back of my leg is black and blue and it’s tough.
“I can hardly bend my left leg as I would like but it’s a long winter and I want to race as much as possible.”
WOLVERHAMPTON: Tai Woffinden 15, Freddie Lindgren 9+1, Peter Karlsson 8, Ludvig Lindgren 7, Ty Proctor 6, Ricky Wells 3+1, Joe Haines 0.
BIRMINGHAM: Danny King 12, Scott Nicholls 10+2, Daniel Nermark 9+1, Claus Vissing 5+3, Ales Dryml 5, Ulrich Ostergaard 2+2, Ben Barker 2.

WOLVES 52 BELLE VUE 41WOLVERHAMPTON rounded off their Elite League programme with an entertaining 52-41 win over Belle Vue on Monday. And that means the Parrys International Wolves have now lost only one home league meeting in three years. Tai Woffinden continued his stunning run of form with an unbeaten score for the third week running and he has now gone 17 races without defeat at Monmore. He said: "I feel really confident and comfortable on the bike right now, things are going really well for me. "I think the major difference in all this is that I am thinking about things a lot more. I'm reallly happy with the way I'm riding." Woffinden’s maximum was of the paid variety after he followed home partner Fredrik Lindgren in Heat 15. He was the fastest rider on show, cutting under Chris Harris on lap three of his opening ride, and producing a fine cut back off the first turn in heat 15, to join Lindgren at the front. The final race was the heat of the night. After that opening bend, Rory Schlein then powered his way into the lead within a lap, only to be relegated back to third by Wolves’ top pairing. Unluckiest rider of the night was Ricky Wells. The American retired in his first ride, then fell on the pits bend when set for a 5-1 in heat 9, and lifted and fell when leading heat 12. Woffinden received good support from Freddie Lindgren with 11 and Ty Proctor continued his much improved form with 10+1. WOLVERHAMPTON 52: Tai Woffinden 14+1, Freddie Lindgren 11, Ty Proctor 10+1, Peter Karlsson 8, Ludvig Lindgren 6+2, Lubos Tomicek 3, Ricky Wells 0. BELLE VUE 41: Rory Schlein 10, Patrick Hougaard 9+2, Ricky Kling 8+1, Chris Harris 6 , Charlie Gjedde 5, Lukasz Jankowski 2+1, Morten Risager 1. wolvesweb

Swedish racer Freddie Lindgren admits he may give Polish racing a miss in 2012.
The 26-year-old looks set to leave Tarnow as the Swallows plot a big-money winter overhaul, which will reportedly bring world champion Greg Hancock, Rune Holta and Janusz Kolodziej to the club.
With Ekstraliga clubs limited to just one SGP star for next season, Lindgren faces stiff competition to land a job in the top flight.
Wroclaw, Czestochowa and Gdansk are believed to be the only clubs yet to agree terms with a Grand Prix regular.
And given that there are still eight riders without Ekstraliga jobs, it’s inevitable some will be forced to race in the First Division or search for work elsewhere in Europe.
Lindgren will spend another year with Dackarna in Sweden and it would be a major shock if he left British club Wolverhampton.
But he admits his Polish plans are still very much up in the air. He said: “I still don’t know what’s going on in the Polish league for next year.
“I’m in a tough situation with the rules they came up with, limiting clubs to just one Grand Prix rider. My future is uncertain at the moment.
“I have to be open to everything; maybe even not racing in Poland. But I’m still in negotiations with some clubs and we’ll see what happens.”
Missing out on a team place in the Ekstraliga, the world’s most lucrative speedway league, would be a blow for Lindgren. A place in the First Division could still net the rider a tidy sum.
But the Orebro-born man said: “Money is not everything. I think I could handle a year without Poland if that’s the case, but I’d like to ride there.
“It’s a tough question. I’m open to all three options – the Ekstraliga, First Division and not doing Poland at all. It’s something I have to look at very closely in the next couple of days and we’ll see what happens. I don’t know at the minute.”
Lindgren’s fellow countryman Daniel Nermark will definitely race in the Ekstraliga after agreeing terms to stay at Czestochowa.
The rider played a huge role in keeping the Lions in the top flight and will put pen to paper once his outstanding wages for 2011 are paid.
