As for howarth its a no win situation he dont wont to come us sheffield just sit and wait for the march deadline to sign and get him half of what we wont to sell him with volves happy to pay loan fee to us or sheffield. Well, anything really? It's all very well saying we're "talking to riders" but lets have some meat on the bones, how well are the talks going do they look promising, are we close too any deals, will we even like him, we've got some irons in the fire as fall backs....possibly "european" nudge nudge, anything can be said to at least generate some modicum of interest to keep us occupied!! This is make or break year remember and we cant afford to be broke before we even start!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They may have spoken to many they may have not,it still amazes me how the average fan falls for it. We could have had A or B at No1, we were gazumped, aye !, likely 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jenga 2,998 Posted December 20, 2017 i would be well happy with grav @ reserve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpeedwayNeutral 16 Posted December 21, 2017 Although Kyle was excellent for Sheffield last year I think the pressure of number 1 would be huge on him and would prefer to go for an established rider. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
comet49 314 Posted December 21, 2017 So Matt’s gone to Edinburgh as reserve, hope Laura and co have something up their sleeve. News before Christmas? Good luck Matt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olga 31 Posted December 21, 2017 Shame MW has moved on ... Campton "super glued to No. 2" and Sergeant playing "how far can I get my average down before I move on" ... destroyed Matt's season last year. At reserve he was doing a grand job ... so we then put him at 4 ... crazy idea. Not enthused so far with our build other than Dan Bewley ... who despite Campton's improvement last year ... DB is already a better rider (using average as a differentiator) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
