Cue Ball

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

Klindt signed for Swindon, so that's him out of the equation

I lied it seems! Confirmation that a consortium has taken over the club is on the Sheffield website, not much more than that though - apart from confirming that fans are hoped/expected to help raise funds for an airfence. Oh, and a hint that we may go Elite in the future

More news tomorrow apparently

Would have thought that missing out on Bjerre would be as much to do with him being a Peterborough asset as anything else

Morris rides for Swindon on a Thursday night and so is unlikely to sign for Sheffield (unfotunately)

Always find it curious that a club can sign a contract with somebody and then change their minds without any repercussions, but if a rider refuses to ride because he hasn't been paid for a few months he gets a ban.

Yes. Yes.

Didn't Berwick not take him because their team plans cocked up last minute? Hence he had sponsors and accommodation on the Berwick area?

That's Bjerre, fisher and Ulrich out of the equation, glad to see Peterborough are running though

Jorgensen signed at Scunny which means either Birks or Klindt are definitely out of their team plans and available

Jorgensen to Scunny - 6.15 av.

If we signed Compton, Facu and Koppe I think it would leave us with 14.34 to play with for the final 2 riders which is a fairly useful amount - Bjerre and somebody up to Mark Lemon's ability would fit. Think it all comes down to whether you gamble on Koppe's pre-injury form not being just a flash in the pan and Facu having decent equipment. I read somewhere or other last year that Andre was playing catch up with set ups given all the exhaust changes during his absence, if he gets them dialled in he is going to be difficult to beat around Owlerton, and that is what we need at the moment. A spectacular season for the team would be nice, but a solid season is a must.

Can't believe Roman Matousek hasn't been mentioned yet!!!

Good point - Magnus anybody?

Koppe was hitting double figures prior to injury and is probably worth a shot - trouble is I'm not sure you could have him, facu and greenwood in one team and I can't decide which 2 I would pick

Happy with that

You may well be right, was getting my years mixed up and was thinking Boocock had left Sheffield by then

Didn't Hoggy choose the team involving Parker that everybody adored?

Greenwood is definitely worth a go full time, was very impressed last year when he guested

Crisis averted!!! Phew. Hopefully Stead, Lawson or Roynan - need a good positive first signing
