Would Woffinden be welcome? If he did really use foul language over the PA system, and directed it at Ipswich fans, surely that didn't exactly impress the main sponsor of both clubs?

I'd expect if he shows so much as a whiff of interest then people will bend over backwards to get him in. Sadly.

Much worse things have been said at speedway tracks. If Woffy wants to be back, I'm sure Sheffield will more than welcome to having him back.

Makes no difference because he has signed a contract for next season already.

Would be a big surprise if he didn’t return! Always seemed reliable to UK and happy when he’s been here. 

I meant in the term that he isn’t coming back to Sheffield next year* I expect him to sign for a premiership club though! Oxford or Birmingham maybe? (If they come up)

Ellis is off to Belle Vue to joint his mate Dan.

I imagine the points limit may get increased to keep more “big hitters” included in teams to attract more fans.

 

If this one fits I would personally go with:

  1. J Holder 8.91
  2. Howarth 5.47
  3. C Holder 6.67
  4. Pickering 6.53
  5. Woffinden 8.26
  6. Etheridge 4.00
  7. Edwards/Gilkes/Boughen

Don’t think that will be too far off it.. possibly not fit Chris Holder in though

So he has signed a contract already.

For team which team Oxford or Birmingham, make you mind up.

Never said he has signed a contract, just saying he ain’t coming back to Sheffield mate. Pains me to say it too because he has been a class act for us.

Funny because I could have sworn you said that he had already signed a contract for next season.

Tai Woffinden 

Jye Etheridge (after play offs performance) 

Jason Edwards RS 

Would be sad for league to lose J Holder or Tobi Musielak so hopefully whichever one doesn’t sign for Sheffield is another teams gain

If team building rules remain the same:

Sheffield  
Jack Holder 8.91
Tai Woffinden 8.26
Josh Pickering 6.78
Kyle Howarth 5.41
Lewis Kerr 5.31
Jye Etheridge 4.00
Dan Gilkes RS
Total 38.67

Wouldn't they use Etheridges BV average from 2022 - 5.22?

It should still apply so should be - doesn't mean it will though!

Makes it even more ridiculous with the guest situation that as he wasn't in a 2023 Premiership declaration that it was a conversion of his Championship average that enable him to be a 4 :rolleyes:
