I find it strange that we've let Broc go to wolves ,hopefully we get someone who will be a better reserve than him or it doesn't make sense to let him go !!!!! Expecting Todd to be one reserve but his away form is very questionable so we are going to need somebody better than him to be his partner.Hope we not going for a greaves or Sargent type rider.

Think it was Broc,s choice to join Wolves not Sheffield's.Probably, Becker had some influence in the decision.

Strange one that, thought Broc Nicol would have been nailed on for us, as mentioned above i Like Todd Kurtz but the PL may just be a bit hot for him. Hope if he does arrive then he is not paired with a Sarjeant/ Greaves type reserve as that would leave us fairly weak at the bottom end after such a good start to team building.

todd would be saddled with a 4 point average, which I don't think he will maintain, berge at 4.14 would be a better choice, given his performances around owlerton previously.

I think Todd could do the business round Owlerton, but he'll get found out away from home. It depends what we have left over. Say the last two signings are Bates & proctor then we'd only have 4.01 in which case we couldn't fit in berge regardless. Although I agree, Dimi would be a fantastic signing at reserve for us lot.

What's the usual start time now at Sheffield for Heat 1? The team so far could well attract extra fans from all around the country so Season Ticket sales should be up.

Personally I'm in Staffordshire and it would take 1 hour 45 mins to get over plus getting out of work at 5pm, so home for 5:30pm and then  anything up to 2 hours in evening traffic to get over to Sheffield would mean the earliest I'd arrive would be 7:30pm.

After announcing that top 4, any announcement involving Josh Bates and Ty Proctor would be a major disappointment.

Get Dimitri and Todd in a reserve, then whomever fits for the remaining second string slot

I wouldn't really want those two either - Josh gets injured too much and Ty has never really won the Tigers fans over, mainly because in his first spell he replaced a popular rider (Adam Roynon) and was obliged to prioritise Wolverhampton's fixtures ahead of Sheffield, was deported the following season, and then was hit and miss this last season.

Was 7.30, going back to 7.45 would be better as the dogs don't finish until after 6.

Next rider being announced in the morning... place your bets!!

I would guess Todd Kurtz...

Although i think Todd has been a great 2nd string for us in the Championship, i think he would struggle in the Premiership; although would be delighted to be proved wrong. 

Looking at the points we have left, i would like to see Nick Morris, Berge and Wells.. All more than capable of increasing their average considerably.

At home Berge at reserve will pile the points up, Wells is a steal on a 4 in the hope that last season was a blip. Nick Morris is much better than his average suggests.
