spin king junior 394 Posted February 17, 2015 So 6.09 to play with now. Most obvious choices are Compton (5.59) or Franc (5.67) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BRITISHSPEEDPOWER 58 Posted February 17, 2015 Anders thomsen 5.68 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJK86 180 Posted February 17, 2015 (edited) Gutted for Taylor Poole, he is a great kid and I think if stayed injury free this year then he could easily achieve the required average to keep rider in UK, hope he keeps his chin up and next winter he can do well in state championship so he can return in 2016 and hopefully be back at Sheffield. As for his replacement I am unsure if Compton wants to return after that crash even though he was slowly getting back to his best at the time of crash so if he fancies it then great but if not maybe Franc would be a good shout, good home and away !

Fromafar 10,375 Posted February 17, 2015 Pepe would be a good back up on that average he goes well at Sheffield. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fozzie4388 679 Posted February 17, 2015 Adam Ellis Then him be missing every Friday Night away meeting because it clashes with Lakeside's Fixtures? Pointless signing that's why no one in the PL has signed him already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taylorj 1,000 Posted February 17, 2015 No Taylor for Tigers this season, gutted http://www.sheffieldspeedway.co/news.php?extend.1754 Welcome to our World !!! Looks like Workington are not going to be the only team the visa issue affects Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cue Ball 416 Posted February 17, 2015 Gutted for Taylor, but given his average and the rules its not unexpected. You would expect that a fit Andre would be the person who is more than able to fill the void, but is he fit? Wouldn't mind seeing Pepe back in the team, last time he rode for us I feel that he was harshly treated because he came into the team as a number one, something he clearly wasn't when you look at his average, as a second string / third heat leader he is more than capable. The only draw back with Pepe is availability, he missed a lot of meetings because of continental commitments Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andrew 125 Posted February 17, 2015 Could bring back Ben at reserve and put Arthur at two with Steady while he finds his feet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Charlieboy 412 Posted February 17, 2015 Big blow so near to start of season.Has Ty proctor got his ?

Does Todd Kurtz fit ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCB 0 Posted February 17, 2015 Big blow so near to start of season.Has Ty proctor got his ? Its a shame that Taylor wants to come here to entertain and work for his money not just come for all the freebies we dish out to all and sundrie who have no intention of getting a job !!!!!!!!! Does Todd Kurtz fit ? Proctor should be OK as he averaged 4+ in the EL last season and one of the criteria is to average 4 in the EL. As for you argument for him getting a work permit, the counter argument would be that while Taylor is here doing a job Andre Compton or some other Brit could do he is putting them in the dole queue. He's not really adding anything to British Speedway. Would you be happy if they let him in to work in McDonalds or stack shelves for Tesco when there are 1000's of Brits out of work?

spin king 1,923 Posted February 17, 2015 No Taylor for Tigers this season, gutted http://www.sheffieldspeedway.co/news.php?extend.1754 Have to agree gutted but not surprised. Looks like the Promotion were hoping that they could appeal on Taylor's behalf that due to injury he was unable to make the State Championship. But looks like the powers that be are sticking rigidly to the rules. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
