  1. Not a bad call, but the big problem with Vissing is the amount of time he spends out injured and I also think that Somerset will be looking to keep him. Steady if he is going to ride in the Premier League is someone that the club has to look at getting. The one thing we like at Sheffield is a local lad, and they don't come much local than Steady. plus he is a leader I think he will be an excellent with young inexperienced riders. We are at a stage now like we were when Sean Wilson came to the club, and I am sure that Simon could have the same impact that Sean made up with club.
  2. I think most Sheffield fans would agree with you.
  3. Looking at the figures Adam Roynon Mason Campton Tero Aarnio fits just in the 42.5 limit.
  4. Rusty Harrison would leave you with 13.43 for remaining 3 riders. Adam Roynon would leave 13.39 Stead I think you can rule him out his average 2.51 higher than Roynon's Ricky Wells would leave 13.99
  5. No said they were waiting on what happened at Coference and talks with the Stadium owners.
  6. I would not read too much into the retaining of three riders from last season. They have said that they were maybe looking to retain 3, and if they had retained 2 others why have they not announced it yet.
  7. Yeah no doubt about the potential of quite a few of these riders, but Len Silver seems to do this every year where by he puts out teams that way under the limit. I wonder if he suffers from discalcula.
  8. Well just looking at riders who might be available you could have a team of say (1) Simon Stead (2) Joe Haines (3) Tero Aarnio (4) Ricky Wells (5) Josh Grajczonek 6) Damien Koppe (7) Joe Jacobs/ Stefan Nielsen Plenty other riders that would fit the bill if none of these riders were available.
  9. I would not panic to much just yet, there are plenty of riders out there, lets just wait and see.
  10. Signing Simon Stead along with the other three riders would leave you with only 10.88 for your last three riders.
  11. A decent side. The one thing that springs to mind is that the team has a lot of potential. Is it a championship winning team? Not to sure of that, but they could well be there or there abouts.
  12. Don't get to excited Edinburgh won it last year.
  13. Some fair comment there, and looking at the other sport using the stadium they greyhounds meetings they only use the stadium Thursdays and Saturdays so perhaps I jumped the gun a little bit and maybe the idea is not such a bad idea. The one thing that they would not have a problem with is riders, with the likes of Patch and CVS been involved they will be wide selection of riders to choose from. The one thing that would really top things off is to get their own stadium and track in their own area, but I am sure that the people behind the scenes are working hard on that already. But one thing that is certain the name Dudley or as us who have been watching speedway remember them better as Cradley have so much history behind them and have to be given every opportunity to comeback.
  14. Don't really have a problem as such, if Dudley or like you say Cradley were to say come to the table and say this is a temporary situation until for a season or two then I would say go for it. There is no doubt that the support is there.
  15. If get a summer anything like we have had this year you have problems completing fixtures.
  16. I think you might find that Wolves like Sheffield and other actually rent the the stadium the track is there's.
  17. I am in no doubt that Dudley would be able to put a very good and entertaining team together and could be very successful. The big problem is that they don't have a track of their own and at present or permission to build their own track. I would say that if they were to get permission to build their own track and say the riding at Monmore Green was only planned for a year I would say it would be definite yes.
  18. Your entertaining I give you that, if your side next season is as entertaining Derwent Park should be packed..
  19. The hockey should read ice hockey, But also add to that you have 1 Rugby League Team 2 Rugby Union teams.
  20. And Jenga reckons Tungate is Worky bound as well.
  21. Would have love to see him ride for Sheffield but unfortunately he has signed for Scunthorpe again next season.
  22. Not sure where you have got your information, but should you putting out that sort of information without Ash's permission or knowledge, not that I am saying that the information is not true. In reference to his sponsors depends who you term his main sponsors are, I was making reference to Wossskow Brown who are a firm based in Sheffield.
  23. I very much doubt if that would be the case, but if the lad can steer clear of injuries I think that he could well be challenging for a number 1 slot be it Sheffield or another club.
  24. I really hope that statement is true, A rider I have reallly wanted to see in Sheffield colours for sometime now and one that I really do rate.
