2005 - Third Signing Announced
Posted 12/11/04
Glasgow Tigers have today confirmed that Trent
Leverington will be returning to Ashfield next season in Tigers colours.
The popular Aussie was very much the victim of circumstances
last season when Glasgow had to drop him due to the lack of availability
of a suitable 3 point rider to complete the team.
At the time, the Glasgow promotion promised Trent that
he would be guaranteed a team slot for 2005 should he want it and they
have stood by this promise.
After Trent was dropped from the Glasgow line up he
rode Conference League with Buxton for a short while before Stoke snapped
him up to ride Premier League.
Trent rose to the occassion and soon became a fans
favourite amongst the Stoke faithful. They will be disappointed that
they have not been able to secure Trent for 2005 as rumours at Stoke
were that he was to return to the Potteries.
His average in 2004 improved by around half a point.
