Surely that is good consistent scoring. Depends whether you've looked at who he beat and factor in how pants Panthers were last season. Is 2022 alone good measure? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree using 2022 form doesn't tell the whole story of Richie's form around Alwalton, as Panthers were weak. However had he scored 3 or 4 points each visit, I could understand people being negative towards his signing, but he didn't, he scored well.

No point giving the 100+ examples to illustrate. Andersen was rubbish but Boro are keeping him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bald Bloke Posted February 17, 2023 Report Share Posted February 17, 2023 2 hours ago, SPEEDY69 said: Worrall is not a bad signing, Andersen is but no-one will know for sure until the season starts. I'd agree with that. Worrall is a solid middle order rider. Last season in his last 10 away meetings he won the same amount of races as Lawson and Picko. I believe he was in the 1to 5 as well. Not an earth shattering signing, but one that is reliable and should keep his average imho. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTT Posted February 17, 2023 Report Share Posted February 17, 2023 (edited) Keep the faith in Richie Worrall, Leicester stepping up this season too and that's another technical place he goes very well at. Richie's scores at Sheffield last season were the following which proves he can score points on a big track away from Home against a very solid side too. 6+1 @ No.3 7+2 @ No.4 9+1 @ No.3 Edited February 17, 2023 by TTT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picko was a lock for one of the second string berths and TJ only got the other spot out of loyalty. TJ is KL's version of the Hans Andersen / Panthers situation where the rider gets a gig at the club every season no matter how he performs on track.

Flappy Posted February 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2023 He's a rider that all teams tend to have Charles Wright, Stevie Worrall, Erik Riss, Kyle Howarth all bang average but steady Eddie riders 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FishersGate Posted February 17, 2023 Report Share Posted February 17, 2023 I'd have taken Richie at Leicester for sure. I think he's only 30ish and some riders are peaking later than previous times before...I think there is a little bit more to come from Richie for sure. He's no bomber but certainly ain't no mug. Keep the faith panthers...looking forward to you coming to the lions den. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can probably consider himself a little unfortunate, in terms of his average he's in a similar bracket to Jorgensen, MPT and Pickering and personally I'd have been happy to see him back either in a slightly different team structure or in place of Jorgensen. Other than a few frustrating performances I thought he was decent last year. He probably is bang average in that he averages between six and seven but you know what you are getting. The issue will be Andersen if he ends up in the side. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Smith Posted February 17, 2023 Report Share Posted February 17, 2023 I just don't get the criticism of signing Worrall. Hans Andersen's signing is way more baffling considering the team will be 2 points under the average. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All these rumoured signings then not come to fruition can't just be down to Buster. Two sides to every story.

The issue will be Andersen if he ends up in the side. It’s more like between five and six than between six and seven if his recent averages are anything to go by. 5.60, 5.22 and 5.51 in the recent seasons before last season’s 6.31 1 hour ago, Daniel Smith said: I just don't get the criticism of signing Worrall. Hans Andersen's signing is way more baffling considering the team will be 2 points under the average. Probably not met with much enthusiasm because of the figures above. His 6.31 possibly looking a little expensive and not likely to see any improvement. I’ve listed a few riders of similar standard that every team has in their middle order, problem is when you have more than one of them which Peterborough MIGHT have if Andersen also signs. That can be negated somewhat if you have a couple of real quality bit hitters so Peterborough are gonna need a top rider at 1 I think. If they get one then I still think they’ll be in the mix for a play off spot. Edited February 17, 2023 by Arch Stanton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
