Mooose Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 I suspect it’s either a publicity stunt or his account has been hacked. I’m sure the truth will come out in due course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 If it was hacked do you not think someone would have told him..and he would say he has been hacked? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BluPanther Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Maybe it was a shoddy attempt at humor, but that would show him to be very immature... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panthers89 Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Im a new sponsor to the sport, and want to a sponsor a young rider, Josh Bates, I do a bit of background, I have 10k I want to give, but find out he's retiring, I'll look elsewhere. Chances are slim, but would you run the risk for being a bit clueless if it was just a joke.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cue Ball Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Or he is serious about retiring or he has been hacked, think we need to know the truth before comments are made about repercussions 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappy Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Hacked 😂 A hacker will really tweet about a retirement 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cue Ball Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Who knows - maybe a mate buggering about on his account. Maybe his own joke gone too far. Maybe hacked. Maybe it is true. Lets wait and see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moranboys Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 either a poor prank by josh or it is true for whatever reason.lets hope both are wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OdsalBoy Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Well i must say i am shocked at what i am reading. IF Josh has decided to play a little prank then i am sorry but it is immature and not nice to us loyal Sheffield fans. However if someone has hacked his account and done this then i hope Josh personally gets hold of them :-). Hoping for some official clarification soon.

ruffdiamond Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Maybe he's been offered a better deal elsewhere Hopefully he hasn't quit, the sport needs his type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OdsalBoy Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Also - if the rumours im hearing about Workington wanting Howarth in their lineup are true then i think we need to make a move for Robert Lambert if he is still available.

Cue Ball Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Would like to see Lambert riding for us every week, but his reputation does seem to be that he will be missing on a regular basis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tosh1218 Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Lambert missed meetings due to Newcastle racing on a Sunday ,take that aside his is a class act in the championship Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spin king Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Not sure what has gone off, but there has been some postings on his FB page that has hinted that maybe that there maybe problems. So I don't think that he has been hacked. And don't think that he is playing a prank. Could be that there has been a disagreement within the family, and Josh has had a bit of a wobble. Would be a massive shame if he does call it a day as he is a massive talent, but Josh now has a young family of his own and maybe he has decided that been a speedway rider is not for him. Hopefully whatever it is it can be sorted and the club and Josh can move forward, but if it is a case that he does not feel he wants to ride then Josh has made the best decision for him and his own young family.

Cue Ball Posted December 11, 2017 Report Share Posted December 11, 2017 There is an article on the website saying he is having personal issues and that the club will stand by him whilst he works through them. Looks like it was a genuine post. Lets hope that he gets whatever it is sorted, but at the end of the day does what is best for him/his family Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
