The cycle speedway transfer window closed on 31st January and Astley & Tyldesley secured three more signings during the last week of the window. A&T swooped 
to sign three riders from the current Elite League champions, Horspath, of
Oxford. Former British Veterans Indoor Champion Errol Thaw is a high profile
signing for A&T, along with his colleagues Simon Munden and Leighton Bates.
All three have considerable experience at Elite League level and will be
valuable additions to A&T's 1st Team squad, to give team manager Paul Graham
a welcome selection headache for when the season gets underway. All three
riders are Stoke based, so have cut down on their travelling considerably by
switching to A&T. Munden previously lined up for A&T during the 2007 season.Photo shows Leighton Bates and Errol Thaw (then Stoke) leading Will Evans and Roy Heslop of A&T. Photo courtesy of Len Priestley. |
