semion 2,192 Posted July 27, 2019 Agree Man, maybe an experienced campaigner thought he could do something the others couldn’t. Buster’s boy JC was really into it at Saddlebow and had some decent fresh ideas. Fall out is the word I think you may use. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Scrutton 180 Posted July 27, 2019 When Buster bought Peterborough and Ipswich in 2018 he could not have known that one would have a good season and one would have all the bad luck that it has had He also didn't know that Kings Lynn would have such a bad season so far Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trees 2,814 Posted July 28, 2019 Surely some of the Peterborough riders are underperforming? You have lost your inspirational number one and guests have not top scored for you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think many of those excuses are coming from Panthers fans though. If they are then have a go by all means. I'd tend to ignore our 6 fingered friends from down the A47 or anyone on a broomstick flying down the A14. Oh, and just unignored based on your reply Edited July 28, 2019 by Crump99 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PS. Whatever happened to his son? Didn’t he fall out with him as well? Anyone taking over the running of Peterborough Speedway always had the difficult issues with the showground owners who seem set in there ways with regards to the speedway, talking nice to them didnt work for RF or GR they both still faced problems with them as well , so the situation ultimately ends with the showground management reverting to the term next please..

Very true got to say im unsure if any of those who have ridden for Peterborough this season would be asked back by a new owner, Wright & Andersen maybe perhaps BWD (who seems to be the new Sullivan with shoulder issues) but even Wright has only had i think a few double figure meetings for Peterborough.

I can’t speak for Rick Frost, but during Ged’s time as Club Owner there were no ‘problems’ with the Showground. We had an excellent working relationship with our Landlords - while we couldn’t always have the dates we wanted, we accepted that we weren’t the only tenants and the Showground management had the final say over stadium usage. In return they were always as flexible as they could be, recognising that we had fixtures to fulfil, and the Club’s many successes in 2015-18 meant that numerous extra fixtures had to be fitted in and we were always able to do that without difficulty. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
