WOLVES BRING IN NICHOLLS

WOLVERHAMPTON have snapped up seven times British Champion Scott Nicholls as an injury replacement for Luke Becker.

Nicholls, who had a similar spell with the club in early 2019, scored a paid maximum when guesting for Becker in Monday’s win over King’s Lynn, and added a 15-point full score for his Cab Direct Championship side Oxford on Wednesday.

Wolves promoter Chris Van Straaten said: “We’re absolutely delighted to have Scott back on board, and it was a bit of a no-brainer to be honest.

“Luke will be undergoing further appointments with specialists and he’s going to be out for at least the next month or so.

“And with Scott making the start to the season that he has, and with the experience he can add to the team, we simply couldn’t let the opportunity pass us by while it was available to us.”
