    Blah blah blah.short memories, ( dad's army, title winners,  funded by buster)just a tad ungrateful, no wonder buster pulled the plug. Your manager? Wrong.your riders? Also wrong.Tarasenki and woydlo funded by. .......Buster.

    Puk rode more years as a star than he did a panther, and actually started at lynn , Basso nearly came last year and is a Glasgow asset anyway.

    Not a lot of sugar in the grapes your way ,hey

    Of course you are right, thanks Buster when you got your new toy for Christmas and then tossed it in the bin when you got bored with it..

    I do think your getting carried away posting things like that at this stage! Your probably not helping the cause either.....

    Why not wait until you know, before coming out with that? Or do you know the truth already ?

    I have zero interest in anything you have to say..your ears only ever prick up if it's anything to do with defending Chapman or digging our Tomalin and it's boring..I hope he never does anything similar to your club as what he has done to ours...although I'm not 100% actually sure I mean that last bit..

    I'm sure that he knew exactly what he was or wasn't doing, so idiot isn't the right word. I can't think of many appropriate words and phrases to describe him but idiot isn't one of them. If he really wants shot of Lynn with retirement beckoning as well then a good 2024 is vital and that costs, say no more squire! You can bet that he'll put in some effort this time to get shot and will not be stipulating that bids need to be in writing before he offloads his truelove. 

    Ok what about Lying, crooked P####..is that any better?

    Isn't British speedway a joke..we've lost 2 clubs in our tinpot league...who would like to enter?.. doesn't matter where you finished in the league or anything like that..it's just to make up the numbers...oh and let's all now go to Tenerife to get p##### and pat ourselves on the back!

    Do you blame Buster for not turning up ? He's been publicly slagged off repeatedly by a " consortium member" and others who have basically whipped up a public hate campaign against him, turning  everything negative that has happened into busters fault. The term " witch hunt" springs to mind.I wouldn't have gone either if it was me 

    and rightly so..his (Chapmans) behaviour has been an utter disgrace and with Rob Lyon and all our riders going to Lynn just rubs our noses in it.. although was never a fan of Lyon anyway, I never liked Chapman which was proved right and my feelings towards Kings Lynn and speedway in general right now is at an all time low with all the corruption and crap that goes on....and they wonder why it's dying on its arse.

    I think it was Chapman who stepped in to save Peterborough a few years ago wasn't it?  Can't see why he'd want to dig his heels in no matter what was offered to him, he was prepared to sell before but had no written offers - ' put your money where your mouth is' comes to mind.  I agree though that this season it hasn't looked like he's been trying to extend or move elsewhere but I'm only on the very outskirts of this and have no knowledge of what's actually been going on.  Offer a fair price and that should result in a sale (future value increase clause included or not).

    Not really..Ged's partner has already stated on here that they wouldn't have let us fold..and for me I hope Ged is involved in the take over as I liked the bloke and he loved the club...I think it was the BSPA mafia and their corruption that frustrated him and made him want to walk but I don't think he would have let us finish...he had more about him than the person who's led us up the garden path this season...

    His interview after the meeting aluded to exactly that 

    Intrigued...So what was said then?..and for those in the know what's the ballpark chances of Panthers actually continuing at the Showground next season if someone steps in and planning permission is refused?..just trying to make sense of it all..

    British Speedway is dying on it's arse anyway..How's the league going to look without us and Wolves!? if Peterborough are not involved I can see myself totally losing interest in the sport all together. I don't even bother watching the GP's live either as for me it's just not the same anymore.

    Currently Buster has nothing to sell and any potential buyer has nothing to buy, that has been the case all season, even the air fence needs replacing after this season. If a 2-3 year lease could be negotiated then that puts things into a different perspective, Buster could sell (or carry on), a buyer could buy and 2-3 years could be spent securing land and building a new track and facilities which according to the local plan the developers will have to pay for. With the best will in the world, nothing will be built where the track is for a long time. If AEPG would agree to 2-3 years it would get them much positive PR and everyone would (sort of) be happy (except the local residents, of which I am one).  At the moment AEPG are getting pelters and it is only going to get a lot lot worse for them. AEPG say they aren’t bothered by the local outrage, but they definitely are, they are not liking the non stop criticism and watching objections filed every day with not one single positive comment. They have misjudged Peterborough people big time and it’s moving towards a watershed moment for Peterborough City Council.

    It's a shame our current owner doesn't have the same passion as you and others to help our club survive but we all know where his heart lies. He quickly got bored of his new toy after they had peaked a couple of seasons ago and they were good times tbf. The thing that stands out for me with him though that he seems to have no problems not telling the truth, he is not the brightest and his PR skills are absolutely woeful which was demonstrated last night. Surely the first step is to get him out and get Someone in who wants to take us forward...but how?
