Panthers official site as usual packed with information for fans regarding plans for the coming season , what league we will be in and thoughts on riders. Not to mention the philanthropic gestures to be made to those that may purchase season tickets .

One of my boyhood hero's who brightened up the grey and bleak immediate post war days

No

Why is it that Chris Louis still seems to have control of Ipswich whereas Panthers are mere puppets in the Chapman conglomerate ?

Bloody Hope not, Many will not be going if so. Strange how the mantra in Speedway is to seek mediocrity in all its forms.

The BSPA have a great capacity for making a right ruddy hames of everything , then blaming someone else

Unsubstantiated rumours I have heard, suggest TV will be with Eurosport who are content with 7 teams. If this is true it may influence the decision as to which league some teams decide to race in.

The management themselves have raised doubts as to which level will Panthers compete at

At this stage we do not know whether the mistakes ( from which they have learnt) made this season, have cost Panthers their place in Premier League

Or before Chapman interfered

I sincerely hope that the mistakes made from which they have learned from do not result in the demise of Premier League Speedway at Peterborough. Some may feel "mistake" is a euphemism for deliberate act for which fans will pay the price.

Whatever happens it is likely they will get if wrong in time honoured fashion.

Unfortunately you are right

Only encouraging in so far as council have said that alternative home must be found for Speedway. however developers normally find a way to get round these things with promises and assurances that do not materialize.

Seems encouraging , but we have heard all this before and usually developers get their way.
