SHEFFIELD’S top four will all be back at Owlerton next year.
The Tigers have confirmed the returns of the Holder brothers, Jack (pictured) and Chris, Tai Woffinden and Josh Pickering. Anders Rowe and Leon Flint are two new faces in the Yorkshire side’s ranks but plans to announce the full team at a supporters’ gathering on Thursday night were thwarted by an unexpected last minute hitch. Tigers promoter Damien Bates said: “We didn’t want to change too much because we weren’t a million miles away last season. “Obviously Tai was injured but with him, Jack, Chris and Picko as a top four, if they can have an injury-free year and just do what they do, it only needs Anders, Leon and the seventh rider to score their average and we’ll win speedway meetings. “Something changed very late on with the final rider but as a management team we’re working on things and we’ll inform supporters of that signing when the time is right. “We’re more than happy with the team we’ve got so far, it’s got four proven heat leaders and a couple of British youngsters who can hopefully continue to progress and we’re looking forward to having another solid year at Sheffield.”
