Some people really don’t do the simplest of things by reading for themselves.

 

Musielak did an interview in Swindon's programme where he said that he may give the UK a miss depending on what league he signed for in Poland. i.e Extraliga he would. He's in Div 1 so this may mean a change of plan for him. He has also signed in Sweden which he wasn't part of this year.

If he said something in a Swindon programme then that might be different. Just quoting Rosco in last weeks speedway star saying it was ‘rubbish’.

Exactly, he may come back. Rosco said so.

Rosco might have said that but Reliant Robin has already confirmed on the Swindon thread that Musielak is not riding in the UK next year.

As previously discussed I’m only quoting what Rosco said last week who said it was ‘rubbish’ that Musielak wouldn’t be back.

6.91, leaves a few possibilities; King, Wright, Riss, Tungate, Harris, Musielak, Ellis, Bewley.

Cross off King - if he isnt a Witch I will eat my hat

Cross off Tungate - cant see him being an allowable option with other new additions to your set up

Musielak would be a top signing but don't think it will be him,more likely Lawson or Allen .If we could get Allen then we could attract Scunthorpe fans.

Cant see it being either of Lawson or Allen. Whilst i would love to see Allen at Sheffield, it has been quoted that we have 6.91 to play with and Allen is only 5.56. Dont think Ash Morris would have been signed if we are not going to use most of the points available (thats if it is 6.91). What average is Mikkel Bech?

Sheffield now have 6 riders chosen, and the points used so far is 36.21.

That leaves us with 6.29 for the last rider.

The Sheffield promotion have in the past got a close to the limit as possible, and I think that they will do so this time .

So looking at the riders from last season who averaged between 6.00 and 6.29 points I can only find Bomber or Musielak.

Bomber could be a possibility, although I have never been totally convinced of him around Sheffield, and  Musielak. it would appear could be giving UK a miss.

Other possibilities Mikkel Beck who has stated that he wants to ride in the UK and would come in at 6.23, another Dane and possible long shot Anders Thomsen who I believe would come in on converted average of around about 6.

Very intriguing and will be interesting to see who the final rider will be, but the Promotion have been true to their word and they are proving that they are not coming to make up the numbers.

what we have left to play with is 6.31

kurtz I believe will be on a 4.00 average(that's why hes a bit of a gamble)and with signing morris I cannot see us signing a 5 and half point man for the last place leaving about 0.80 unused when we could have had a better option than ash morris at reserve.

riders under 6.31 available and not announced as signed anywhere yet include- heeps, MPT, musielak, bewley, harris, bellego, Lawson, allen, nicholls, covatti.

from those im sure some have deals already under the table, apart from 2 which stand out as nothing sorted yet.....musielak and bellego, I would expect the last one to be musielak...

time will tell.

Welcome to Sheffield, Ash Morris. Met him a few years ago in Cardiff and he came across as a really nice guy. Let’s get behind him.

Either Lawson or Allen would do very nicely to finish the team, especially considering they’d be our number 4 rider! Of the two I think Allen is perhaps more exciting to watch round Owlerton, but Lawson can fly round the place when he gates. I thought the promotion had a bit of a falling out with Lawson a couple of years ago, but I guess life’s too short to hold a grudge. Either way Sheffield are not going to fail through a lack of effort by the promotion. Thanks for giving us something to really look forward to next year.

I see no reason why Kurtz average is not his converted figure. If 4.00 is the minimum for a foreign rider in 2nd tier then conversion rate should reflect it, do minimum in top tier for a non Brit should be 2.50.

Think Todd Kurtz will be 3.39 as he'd been declared in the top league previously with Poole in 2012.

It's only 'new' foreign rider's to the league that have to be assessed 4.00 minimum and that's only for team building and re-declaration.
