TIGERS star Josef Franc returned to his former club Berwick on Saturday - to help ease a rider shortage crisis!
Franc made a one-off guest appearance for the Bandits who were several riders short because they were stranded around Europe thanks to the UK airline crisis.

And he didn't let them down with a 14-point haul which helped them to an important Premier Trophy win over Glasgow.
Now Franc wants to use the meeting as a confidence booster for his Sheffield performances which have been inconsistent to date.
He s aid: "I enjoyed going back to Berwick, I am based in England a lot so it was no problem for me to go and help out my friends.
"I know I could have ridden better for Sheffield at times and I want to use this meeting as a way of boosting my confidence. I have been made very welcome by everyone at Sheffield and naturally we were all disappointed to lose to Birmingham last week.
"I know I have fast bikes and hopefully I can start being more consistent for Sheffield now. They have done everything they can to accomodate me at the club and I want to reward them for making me so welcome."
