Cue Ball

Don't think anybody is expecting him to get back to a 10 point average, but he is capable of making a mockery of his 4.36 average, especially around Sheffield and especially when he is involved from the start of the season and now that he knows setups with the new silencers a bit better. He had the fastest time of the season at Owlerton until the PLRC - the boy still got something

I sincerely hope so!!!!!

Seems curious that Koppe has spent the winter in the UK riding in the series at Scunny to then head home in the eve of the season

One off the press releases said that there would be as many as 3 new faces - which we've got - so thnk it's fair to say that it will be Compton and Albin or Koppe

Glad you asked that, was wondering exactly the same thing myself!

Palm-Toft signed for Belle Vue - explains the mechanic hunt on twitter

Think we have around 9 points left for the final 2, so still some options/permutations available

Poole and Lanham it is.... 5 down, 2 to go. If I'm being honest, I'm not sure Lanham would have been my first choice, would prefer to see somebody younger and up and coming, but he does bring experience to the side and will no doubt be of benefit when we are on the road.

We haven't even seen the team yet, but there is almost a sense of optimism from Sheffield supporters creeping in... Let's hope we ain't disappointed!!

Is that a dig at the size of Screeny?!? He's fast for a big bloke

Too late, didn't he retire last year?

Just seen that and came back on to amend! My bad. Presumed it would be Thursday with it saying story will be in the Speedway Star.... And Sheffield announcements are nearly always made on a Thursday

Thursday = d-day

Share the wisdom behind your words!! Fact or fantasy?

Actually... ignore my previous post. Just looked at it again and it was a joke post by Steady. I'll get my coat and hang my head in shame. In my defence, I'm very tired!

Simon Stead on Twitter yesterday "Any @TigersSpeedway fans concerned with the lack of signings.... Worry not!"

I see that Koppe is holding is own in the Scunthorpe winter series - competed in 2 out of 3 rounds so far, second in the first and then won last weekend. Not the strongest line up I concede, but most are riders that know their way round the EWR

Out of those, I think you can discount Maasen for coming back this year. It's unfortunate that he didn't achieve an actual average as somebody might have found him attractive on a 3, but think that it would be a tall order for him to live up to his assessed average of 5

Christ's... People in glass houses and all that

So Bridger would conceivably fit, but would make us more top heavy than Jordan

Just thinking, wonder if Lewis Bridger still wants to double up/down?? Also, curious to see Kyle Legault commenting on the face book page

So just two 7 pointers to find.... Piece o'piss!

Realistically we are going to sign Koppe, Albin and Compton, what points does that leave is with?

Greenwood and Jacobs have signed for Peterborough. Gutted about Greenwood, think they have got a potentially class rider in him

Sod that for a game of tennis! Much prefer the race card to paying 1 or 2 quid for a flimsy programme full of adverts that I'm really not that interested in
