This was the sustainable level that was allegedly, for many, our saviour but we are indeed here again after 2 shocking crowds for important meetings. I'm sure that the story will grow though.

Hodgy 976 Posted October 9, 2018 Yes, here we go again. Wouldn’t be surprised to see Rathbone move into Redcar. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To be fair watching Lakeside for the 134th time this year with understrength teams which barely resembled Panthers was hardly going to pull in the masses. And where was the promotion, the big build ups? Barely anything in social media. Edited October 9, 2018 by Noodles 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The commuting from up north to Peterborough every week must take its toll, plus affecting his time working and with family. Seems like Ged is a good guy, with his heart and head in the right place.. Just hope someone can come forward to take Peterborough on as it seems a great club, and deserves some stability off track. British speedway needs good tracks like the showground too. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

boz 315 Posted October 9, 2018 Ged and the directors at Redcar certainly never used to get on, he has tried in the past to invest and been rebuffed. Things do change though I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arch Stanton 2,241 Posted October 9, 2018 Or glass half full, someone comes in and takes Panthers back in to the top division. Wouldn’t rule anything in or out at this stage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sings4Speedway 3,246 Posted October 9, 2018 Certainly some interesting comments in the statement. With Rathbone have so much capital tied up in Peterborough would his hand not be forced to continue if no buyer came in? If and its a horrible if, the club folded would selling off the assets get anywhere near the money he has invested? and would anyone even buy them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
