His 2019 league meeting ave is 6.27... Considering he is young and probably his 1st big injury I don't think he has dropped much. Maybe less than Rob Lambert has dropped.... Worrall averaged 6.32 in 2018. Suffered serious injury. His 2019 league meeting ave is 6.11. Less than TJ has dropped... Lidsey, assessed 4.00 ? I can't remember.In 2019 he has averaged 4.21 in league meetings. If the 4.00 is right he's done ok. Worrall was much better in 2017 before he broke his leg and missed a lot of 2018. Has achieved at a lower level since. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you suggesting poole downed tools and didnt want 4 points, instead 3? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is exactly what happened. Poole were the better team on the night and deserved their win, Belle Vue were 2nd best on the night and did well to stop Poole getting 4 pts. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly what ive been saying but some Poole fans cant quite grasp it. Ipswich have riders that are poor at the NSS but go well at Poole........for that reason i would much rather face Poole in the play offs Poole have riders that are poor at Foxhall but go well at the NSS.....for that reason Poole would choose Belle Vue rather than Ipswich Poole can go to Belle Vue and win...........Ipswich will go to Belle Vue and lose.................doesnt make Poole the better side Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think they are overrated, mostly by their own fan base. Let's be honest, they only just beat a 6 man team. 3 races where bv had as good as 1 rider. That's a huge advantage. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would back Poole to beat Belle Vue over two legs with a full team.Your issues weren't confined to just Bickley, If Worrall and Bewley could get back to form then you would have a team to fear.

Equally, had tero been riding, hed have scored the 1 point to at least make a draw. 4 nights earlier at your place you only beat us by 2. We were well in that meeting. It would be close.
