Though Skidder has said previously that the Poole team keeps changing, so hopefully he is not the rider that has 'changed.'

Jaizer Posted November 16, 2021 Report Share Posted November 16, 2021 Steve is probably a victim of doing too well for Poole. Haven't checked but think went from 3rd heat leader for Poole to league no.1 over the season. Teams seen loathe to go with 2 9 pointers these days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BartoszZmarzlikFan Posted November 16, 2021 Report Share Posted November 16, 2021 Got to be honest. Danny King is simply a much better rider than Steve Worrall and he's capable of doing a job at No.1 by maintaining his average. Steve Worrall even though he's popular among the Poole faithful wouldn't be able to maintain his average. Take into account the numerous amount of meetings Steve rode in the engine room with easier races than Danny. I'm interested to see how this play's out as I'm hearing one thing and Trackerman has heard another while the Polish press are reporting the Lawson story. Can't fit all 3 in so one has to go. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topaz325 Posted November 16, 2021 Report Share Posted November 16, 2021 Look at it this way, riders get dropped during the season from clubs sometimes through no fault of there own because the numbers dont add up and have no other club to join, sometimes riders do not get paid by clubs, "IF" the story is true cannot really blame Richard Lawson, welcome to Speedway.

Expand Lawson is still waiting for payment from Eastbourne Eagles - Ian Jordan who was involved at Plymouth also ; seems to have gone awol as Drew Kemp was quoted in Speedway Star saying no Eagles riders had any communication or answers from him.
