poolebolton Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 Right now Ricky Wells looks best bet from rider who rode last season, if you want average for average. 6.75 average. Unless BV went for a re-declared team already. Bring Smith in for Jye which gives an extra 2 points and could get a 8.75 rider in? Could bring in K.Bjerre and Smith in for Worrall and Jye E. Would not be a bad move? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikec Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 Absolutely gutted. He's started the season in great form. On that average he's irreplaceable home & away. Oh & he's a great ambassador for our club & British speedway as a whole. Get well soon Stevie, hopefully back in Aces (& Scunny) colours as soon as possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalterPlinge Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 Patrick Hougaard got to be the best choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil The Ace Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 His full leg is in plaster cast which tells me it could be a very bad break and may be season ending. If we were to do s straight swap then I would go for Eric Riss, lassie bjerre or Patrick hougaard. But they make us weaker so as cruel as it seems maybe a squad rebuild would be better Stevie drozdz and jye out. Bringing in lassie, Eric and auty Cook L bjerre E Riss Tungate Fricke Auty Bewley 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a problem for the premiership clubs, when a rider gets injured riding in the championship. Hope he makes a speedy recovery. It is but it could happen with any league, Premiership riders could get injured riding in Poland, Denmark, Sweden or wherever. Scunny is one of the safest tracks around so just have to put it down to sheer bad luck. Get well soon Steve Worrall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 Awful news, thought Stevie would be in for a great season. I agreed, team needs rebuilding, quite like the look with Lasse/Auty in for Worrall/Jye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 I expected Worrall to have a good season and no doubt it’s a blow for Belle Vue. The riders so far suggested are not as good as Worrall. Hougaard flatters to deceive, while Lasse Bjerre has his moments. Auty has got as far as he is going to go in the sport. Time needed by the promotion for a rethink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunner85 Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 Gutted for Steve. three very good home performances and unbeaten last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPEEDY69 Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 (edited) Worrall was a cert for British Champion this year in my view, our best World Cup rider last year and started in great form. Maybe he won't be out as long as some fear. Edited April 7, 2018 by SPEEDY69 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyderd Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 Gutted, Stevie had a massive training programme over the winter and looked a whole lot slimmer, fitter and sharper, I'm sure he would of had his best season to date. I feel it's impossible to replace Steve on his average, so a rebuild may be M Lemons choice. hope you recover fully and soon Stevie, really really gutted for you.

Steve0 Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 Rotten luck for Stevie - he has made so much progress the last few years and is irreplaceable on that average. I think the one over 8 rule was only for the starting line-up and because BV have a genuine injury, I would be happy for Kenneth Bjerre to replace him with Smith at reserve to replace Jye. its only fair IMHO in the best interests of speedway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ouch Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 I think if they redeclare then I’d opt for the original lineup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
