Belle Vue 51 Coventry 41

BELLE Vue speedway were in a war of words after a comfortable 51-41 Elite League win over Coventry at Kirkmanshulme Lane last night.

Aussie starlet Josh Grajczonek again proved his rich potential with two heat wins in his nine points, as did Patrick Hougaard. Captain Hans Andersen led the way with ten.

  
Coventry team manager Alun Rossiter blasted the track conditions live on TV but David Gordon, the Autogate Aces chief, said: "There was nothing wrong with it except the dust problem which is difficult to control when it's so dry.

"The only comment I'd really want to make is that we won by ten points. Whenever Alun Rossiter is on TV he seems to think he's on the Rosco Show.”
