SHEFFIELD have been given permission to speak to two riders with Elite League experience as they look to rebuild following a disappointing 2012 season.The Tigers have already announced the return of Joe Haines for next year but are keen to strengthen in the heat-leader department.Co-promoter David Hoggart said: Our target has to be eight-point riders at least and we are beginning talks with two prospective riders.The one thing to come out of 2012 is that we need a clear leader at the front end, and thats where we are looking right now.
