Adam Skornicki thrilled with Wolverhampton return
Club legend Adam Skornicki has told how he loved being back at Wolverhampton during Tuesday's Olympique.
'Sqora' was a part of the 2002 and 2009 league-winning sides and is without doubt one of the most popular riders to have ever graced the Monmore Green shale.
It's been a tough couple of years for the Polish racer who dislocated his hip during a spell with Birmingham in 2014 and has since spent the majority of his time in a management role back in his home country.
But Skornicki is keen to make a return to British Speedway and says it was great to experience the buzz he got from racing in front of his old supporters.
"It's been almost two-and-a-half years since I had my last meeting in England so it was great to get back on a bike over here," said Skornicki.
"It's a moment I've been waiting a long time for and to do it at Monmore Green was the perfect venue for me. As always, I really appreciated the opportunity to get some bike time in and I thank Chris (Van Straaten) and Pete (Adams) for putting me in the meeting.
"After winning my one race last night, I knew what the fans were waiting for and I couldn't let them down! When I was last racing over here, I didn't enjoy doing the doughnuts as much after one went wrong but I always felt like the fans expected one.
"I have to admit though that it was great to see them asking for another doughnut and I loved celebrating in my old style in front of the Wolverhampton fans once again. They were brilliant with me and I really appreciated them cheering me on all night."
