Josh Bates R/R ?3. Lasse Bjerre4. Todd Kurtz5. Kyle Howarth6. ?7. Jack Parkinson-Blackburn Sheffield come with a 1 3 and 5 as good as any in the league, throw in Todd Kurtz and Josh Bates and you have a side that will challenge for the trophies this year. The diamonds will need to fight to win this match. Sheffield are a bit hampered with R/R for Josh Bates and whomever takes to the track with the Number 6 jacket. On Thursday they had a guest in Mark Riss at number 6 and he notched up 14 + 1 from 7 rides Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ruffdiamond 6,115 Posted April 14, 2017 Depends on what 'Howarth and Grosh' turn up, great if they gate, but usually woeful if they don't. Hope the weather stays dryish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
graz gp 184 Posted April 14, 2017 I think this will be a close thing. The Tiger's to take a point at least. Fingers crossed with the weather. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
screm 8,057 Posted April 14, 2017 Josh Bates missed last Thursday`s meeting as his partner went into Labour, happily she gave birth to a boy, so surely Bates will take his place in the Sheffield team this Sunday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spin king 1,923 Posted April 15, 2017 We should be at full strength for this one. We don't normally go well at Brough Park, but fro us to get anything from the meeting we will have to make sure that we get shared heats that feature Lambert and Worrall, and try and get some sort advantage when they are not out. Heats 13 and 15 could well be our downfall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

erniew 163 Posted April 16, 2017 At least It's been called off early enough to save the Sheffield supporters a wasted journey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tonga 53 Posted April 16, 2017 (edited) At least It's been called off early enough to save the Sheffield supporters a wasted journey. Tigers on Tour lads were in Ctr of Newcastle and most riders were around an hour away when it was called off Edited April 16, 2017 by Tonga 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
idanthyrsus 96 Posted April 16, 2017 Tigers on Tour lads were in Ctr of Newcastle and most riders were around an hour away when it was called off What was the alternative? Weather forecast was for the rain to stop which would have allowed track work to be carried out to potentially get the meeting on. As the rain hasn't stopped in time the only option is to call the meeting off. What would you have preferred? That the meeting was cancelled prior to a drop of rain falling on the off-chance that it might? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
