Perhaps before a meeting he has his serious head on and can come across as studious, but I have found him very approachable once the races are run. Ok Steve, thanks for that, looks like i have misjudged him. I haven't spoken to him myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dear foreverblue, Steve has joined us at the after meeting Press Conference on several occasions over the past two seasons and has proved to be good company freely offering his take on the nights action in an engaging, knowledgeable and witty way. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I have been there on some of those occasions and sometimes found his way to be a little arrogant but It is probably just his way and my interpretation of it. He is a completely different character to Danny King. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiveusaB Posted December 15, 2022 Report Share Posted December 15, 2022 SW guested for B'ham a couple of times a few seasons ago and he was very approachable on each occasion .... from the few short chats I had with him, I found him to be a Top Man. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I interviewed Stevie many times for GRT Media DVD's, both when he was a Diamond and when he rode for other tracks and he always came across as pleasant and in no way arrogant. Even when off camera he would always speak, unlike some riders. Edited December 15, 2022 by StevePark 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't spoken to him myself. Spoke to Stevie Worrall both at speedway tracks and in his own time, never met a nicer man, very chilled person and always has a fun time with his life, very nice person. I have noticed in the past when he's getting interviewed in front of the fans, he does give some strange answers which may come off or appear as slightly arrogant. I'm not sure if he's doing it for comical effect or maybe he gets nervous talking on front of 1000s of people. Personally though, behind closed doors, he's a lovely bloke, from what I know of him (slight family friend and obviously know him and a few members of his family from when he was at Newcastle/Scunthorpe If Newcastle still existed, I wouldn't want him in my team, but he's still a great bloke.

We have 12.97 left for 3 riders. Batch would tie up 7.29 leaving us only 5.68 - Take 2 for Ablitt only leaves 3.68. Look at the last GSA sheets and looks who is left. Would give you 2 weak reserves. My money will be on strength in depth with what will look like strongish reserves who will sweep up lots of points against a lot of the other reserves in my opinion and not put us on the back foot from heat 2. Now we have only 2 proven H/L (if Lawson added to Worrall) it makes sense that we go for more points over the other teams reserves. Especially the 2 pointers. I think a number of us have a good idea who the last 3 will be. If you assume for example no 2 pointer in our team then you can kind of work it out from the final GSA sheet by taking 2 x 4 point plus riders and 1 x 3 point plus rider from those not yet announced. (Don't forget to discount the 2.5% for all 3 riders as think they will all be Brits). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lewy Posted December 15, 2022 Report Share Posted December 15, 2022 Batch, roynon, ablitt final 3 riders i reckon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaizer Posted December 15, 2022 Report Share Posted December 15, 2022 If Newman won't be fit for start of season would young Connor be an option? I know ablitt beat him in play off final but it's kind of place he could flourish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
