Steve Irving 393 Posted November 23, 2016 Not all that predictable if you read the article. He wanted away but was persuaded to give it another year but this will probably be his last. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve55 340 Posted November 23, 2016 Glad to see Josh back in 2017 Pity you still get the snide remarks from some but prove them wrong lad How I and others would love to see him prove us wrong - only time will tell. I wonder if he's going to be the 'solid reserve' that Damien Bates was referring to in last weeks piece in the S - Star? Still have 19.16 points to play with so it's possible he could be that guy. Think Lasse Bjerre is going to be the 2017 signing of the season on that average though, see he's going to be riding at Coventry along with Bates, hope they get on ok. Not all that predictable if you read the article. He wanted away but was persuaded to give it another year but this will probably be his last. I didn't know that, where's the article that refers to this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
balderdash&piffle 720 Posted November 23, 2016 Why do people get excited over bates? It's because he is a 'MASTER' in the proffession Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ben91 1,743 Posted November 23, 2016 Not a fan of Bates personally but he is on a good average for next year. He's stepped up into the 1-5 and held his figure roughly, this year is make or break for him in the second tier, he's had his bedding in season as a second string, now he needs to put a point on his average at least. I think he'll do it Sheffield look to be building a very decent team so far, they should be there or thereabouts come the end of the season barring any team building nightmares with the remaining three.

The SAINT 78 Posted November 23, 2016 Bet the likes of Glasgow & Edinburgh will be really disappointed glasgow would love him, didn't he score 17 there for somerset last season??? and they need some half decent 2nd strings having gone with a top heavy team this season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
