Yes 7 from the PL,1 being Wells.I didn't say how many there was but it would give you a much better chance of getting a decent guest had he a 7pt average.But having said that nowadays many riders seem reluctant to take bookings.Only normally a select few will do it.

And of course Swindon go for Bellego who would have been a no brainer for us. I might actually give this a miss now with Hans not fit either..totally disillusioned and another uninspiring chapter in this uninspiring season. I'd make the most of it. It might only be June but we've only 4 programmed league fixtures left after this, with one also to re-arrange, and the humongous gap of Jul 15 to Sept 2 without any speedway and who knows what happens after that.

LagutaRacingFan 1,929 Posted June 20, 2019 (edited) Wells rode the Showground fairly well last year, when he guested for us, albeit in the Championship. Edited June 20, 2019 by JeremyCorbynFan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thought panthers had only ridden 5 home meets in league so should have another 6 after tonight or am I being dumb Edited June 20, 2019 by hans fan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was just trying to make sense of it quickly, late at night using Panthers website - fatal mistake to make the reply accurate. I just turn up these days at the EoES and don't pay as much attention as I once used to. The point stands though that there are not many fixtures left in 2019 and this is far from the worst meeting to be seen so unless finances or other factors are a huge problem then make the most of it would be my advice to any waverers.

The Panthers website fixture list omits to mention, under ‘to be arranged’, two outstanding fixtures - the Belle Vue rain-off restaging, and the Wolverhampton meeting originally scheduled for 24th June.
