40 point limit confirmed. Expect the team to be 1. J Holder 2. Howarth 3. C Holder 4. Pickering 5. Woffinden 6. Etheridge 7. Gilkes RS

Janowski Harris Klindt Tungate Wright Kerr Boughen RS

After hearing Oxfords proposed team, I can’t see it being them.

Dan Gilkes is back.

3 riders for next seasons team to be announced by Saturday. Woffinden, J Holder & Howarth I reckon.

It was Tobi’s second season with us this last season, sad as I am to not see him back next season, the use of those words “years of loyalty” is absolute tripe!

Why? Tobi must cost a lot with having flights to pay for especially. Woffy living back in UK and both Holder boys live here during the season.

I believe Ben is on his way to Belle Vue, if the limit goes to 41 with 7 teams then I think Zach would fit in at reserve.

Assuming the points limit is 40, I imagine the team will look pretty much like this: J Holder 8.91 Howarth 5.47 C Holder 6.67 Pickering 6.53 Woffinden 8.26 4.16? Gilkes RS Left with 4.16 to play with at reserve. Do we go for Etheridge? Who else could fit?

Enjoy our winter while you cry the entire time?

Ellis should be a great addition to Ipswich next season. His dad will fit in very well with the fans as well as he also loves a good old bite on the forum and social media!

Tobi ain’t coming back

How has an all 4 back decision from over 10 years ago ended up in a debate on Sheffield Tigers 2024 thread… spare me

Both Jack and Chris Holder to return next season, along with Woffinden.

Based on second strings heat leaders etc…. 1. Sayfudtinov 2. Douglas 3. Lidsey 4. Pickering (C) 5. Musielak 6. Ben Cook 7. Bailey

You getting mixed up with Woffinden? I said Tai had, not Tobi.

Never said he has signed a contract, just saying he ain’t coming back to Sheffield mate. Pains me to say it too because he has been a class act for us.

I meant in the term that he isn’t coming back to Sheffield next year* I expect him to sign for a premiership club though! Oxford or Birmingham maybe? (If they come up)

Makes no difference because he has signed a contract for next season already.

Tobi not coming back next year

Yep I’ve heard it’s a done deal already

Ellis is off to Belle Vue to joint his mate Dan. I imagine the points limit may get increased to keep more “big hitters” included in teams to attract more fans. If this one fits I would personally go with: J Holder 8.91 Howarth 5.47 C Holder 6.67 Pickering 6.53 Woffinden 8.26 Etheridge 4.00 Edwards/Gilkes/Boughen

Think you guys would be silly to go too top heavy again with Doyle and m Sayfudtinov, get Emil back and build a strong team around him… he’s the real winner out of him and Doyle.

So with the season climaxing beautifully for the Tigers, it leaves a few big questions for next season… who will be back? Who will be new? Who will go? Hearing Tai Woffinden has agreed to return next season and Josh Pickering seems like a cert. 1. Woffinden 8.47 2. Howarth 5.61 3. Douglas 7.14 4. Pickering 6.56 5. Laguta 8.43 6. Etheridge 7. Edwards/Gilkes/Boughen That would be my team of choice

Yes all good and well Tigers fans were allowed on centre green at foxhall back in 2017, but you seem to be forgetting the key point there…. Sheffield won that night and Ipswich lost last night so stop being a little b**ch about it and get over it, what was you wanting? To get on track and celebrate with the Sheffield riders???
