4thbender Posted August 22, 2018 Report Share Posted August 22, 2018 The one that's slipped in under the radar is last week's "desperation" signing Kasper Andersen. He might turn out to be Sheffield's "find" of the season and well worth a spot at no.6 for 2019. After his 13 at Edinburgh, he's shown he could prove to be the one who gives Sheffield some firepower at reserve on some of the dodgier away tracks. The irony is that he's the diagonal opposite of the one he was brought in to replace. Lasse was dynamite at home but couldn't score away. This lad is may be the one who'll score mightily away but be hopeless around Owlerton…. but he's still learning and who knows what he might grow into?

I could live with that - usually (as in not the last 4 Thursdays!) we would have enough firepower with the rest to get away with it. Mind you, the last rider we had like that (Ricky Wells) wasn't hugely popular with Tigers fans. As I said on Facebook, the signing may or may not be someone that makes us go "ooh", but the good thing is that there is going to be a 2019. I don't know if it's because it's coming up to 30 years since 1989, and it's been a terrible end to the season, I was beginning to get a bit nervous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Posted August 22, 2018 Report Share Posted August 22, 2018 Cooper Riordan has been at Owlerton this summer,so it wouldn't be a surprise if it's him. Outside the box guess,Connor, on a full transfer from Ipswich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While you could well be right I’d suggest that one match at home and one away probably doesn’t offer enough evidence either way. Would be great if Sheffield saw enough in Kasper to have him back next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be great if Sheffield saw enough in Kasper to have him back next year. He does still have matches at Redcar, Scunny and Peterborough to prove himself. If he can manage to get close to matching his Edinburgh performance in one or two of those he should be nailed on for another go next year. Daft as it sounds, he could turn out to be this season's greatest "find". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigerblade Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 Although it shows as TBA on the fixtures on the official website, we've raced the match at Peterborough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ephraim Zimbalist Jr. was an American actor known for his starring roles in the television series 77 Sunset Strip and The F.B.I. He is also known as recurring character "Dandy Jim Buckley" in the series Maverick and as the voice behind the character Alfred Pennyworth in Batman: The Animated Series and associated spin-offs. Meanwhile, Ben Hur (1959) starred Charlton Heston, Stephen Boyd, Jack Hawkins and Haya Harareet. was directed by William Wyler and produced by SAM ZIMBALIST (I knew there was a Zimbalist connection).
