Or are they? that's the important question that requires an answer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scoobydoo 2,254 Posted January 18, 2019 (edited) Looking more like Harris has been released due to the average reduction mess up, the statement doesn't say if Ged is still involved or not more to come i fear. Edited January 18, 2019 by scoobydoo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think they have been too diplomatic with the real reasons behind the statement, unforeseen circumstances is not just about the earnings of Chris Harris . Telling supporters the truth and the real reasons behind this is how you get supporters on side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve0 5,517 Posted January 18, 2019 (edited) Peterborough were looking like the team to beat and really sorry to read that they have released Harris. I wonder who they will bring in to replace him that is cheaper than him on a similar average? Nicholls to Peterborough and Harris to Ipswich? Or is that two (heat leader) Brits on the sidelines when the season starts? Edited January 18, 2019 by Steve0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Panthers89 1,922 Posted January 18, 2019 What a piss take for all parties! 1. The rider - Chris was signed and probably had offers elsewhere but chose Ged and the Panthers. 2. The Club - what a shambles, a winter of positives for the first time in years now ruined. Why sign the rider? 3. The replacement - will know he’s the cheap option 4: The replacement 2 - will know panthers are desperate and could hold the club to ransom Wonder how many fans who have brought season tickets will be questioning that now! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sully 274 Posted January 18, 2019 must be Buster throwing his weight around. Not happy that Peterborough have put such a good team together so decides Harris has to go....if buster tries to sign him for lynn I hope Harris tells him where to stick it the offer. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That would be a stupid thing for Harris to do - given the only places left are all Buster's clubs! I'm sure he would rather be riding and earning than watching - assuming the terms are right. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
