    Peterborough Panthers 2015

    Finding a like for like replacement for Allen is almost an impossibility I would think. The team mentioned with Kurtz is about as good as its going to get, I imagine we would have to go along this route as options are limited.

    Warsaw Gp Saturday 18th April

    I don't know ... a packed out Deepdale, Brammel Lane, Ricoh or Stadium MK would create a hell of an atmosphere

    Warsaw Gp Saturday 18th April

    If we cant blame human's ..... it makes you wonder what animal is employed to lay the track!!!!
  5. I've seen the clipboard in action!!
  6. I think that every situation I have seen similar to this with a rider lying on the track in the 1st/2nd bend area and the others about to finish the last lap, the red lights have come on prior to riders finishing the race so that they have slowed before passing the prone rider. Didn't happen in this case, bit of an unusual one IMO

    Peterborough Panthers 2015

    I hope that's wrong, personally I have collected the programme for every meeting I have attended since my first one in 1976, these are all completed and filed away (anorak I know). It wouldn't be the same if all my collection was downloads on a tablet!! Not a lot of fun going through an old set in the winter remembering certain meetings.

    You can always ignore points difference if it suits!!!!

    Shane Bowes Or Robert Nagy

    I remember the three times re run race off for the riders championship at Coventry, great drama, as a Panthers, fan wrong result though!! Nagy was a great rider at that level though

    National League Speedway

    I am very lucky in the fact that I live smack in the middle of 3 tracks, one in each of the levels of league racing and can honestly say that I find very little difference in the entertainment level at any of the tracks. I also visit Buxton at least once a year and have dragged my wife to watch National League racing at numerous venues from Weymouth to Sittingbourne to Stoke and have been entertained by them all. Some of the facilities have been a bit lacking but for speedway entertainment dont worry about it being NL

    Torun Sgp 2014 (inc Sunday)

    Fantastic entertainment!! Congratulations to Greg on his win and for doing his up most to make sure the battle for 3rd went to the wire!! KK a comfortable second but the incident and drama over third was pure theatre - going to watch it again now!!

    Sorry, didnt mean he covers those riders as well, just wondering about payment .. you cant be that bad at one and that good at another

    Peterborough Panthers 2015

    I guess that they will be after Rick Frost has covered everything ......... does make you wonder about the Coventry riders as well????

    Peterborough Panthers 2015

    There was a good reason for that...... You have to marvel at the brass neck of Horton, he sat in the stand listening to the end of season speeches that were publicly announcing that his management was s*** and then was applauding with everyone else at the end of them!!!! Unbelievable!!!

    Leicester Lions 2015

    At the moment ... very little ... haven't a clue what they were

    They're lucky, at Peterborough we cant get them to ride in league matches!!!

    Peterborough Panthers 2014

    I am afraid that this season has descended into a farce!!! The changes the management made have been a total disaster, rumours over non payment have been doing the rounds for many weeks now and if true you can only praise the effort certain riders have made recently (Ulric, Lasse and Ales have been superb at home recently) if they are in danger of not getting paid then its even more praise worthy. I cannot see how the club can continue unless another major shake up at the top if forthcoming. It is a bonus that only one home league meeting is left to race, as for the league cup final ... I can only see that being embarasing!!!

    Peterborough V Workington 9/9

    That doesnt make a lot of sense ..... as Panthers were 2 points to the good they could only loose out by running heat 13 as it happened they scored a 5 -1 it made no difference to the overall points allocation, any heat advantage to Workington would have reduced Panthers league points allocation! Maybe they just wanted to give the paying public as amny races as possible

    Worrying Rye House Rumours

    I hate to see any track close and although RH isnt one of my favorites I do fondly remember the morning meetings we used to stop off at on the way to watching a world championship meeting at White City later in the day. I usually manage to get there at least once a season and hope that will be the case for a few more years yet

    Panthers Vs Plymouth..... 2/9/14

    Not a problem .... even more tractor racing during the Scunthorpe match, couple of extra time for 2 rides, bit longer interval to redo the track then Plymouth match hits the 10pm curfew after heat 10. Result stands and Ollie sits around all night but only gets 2 rides!! Simples!!

    Darcy Ward

    And if you do and are caught, try telling the magistrates that you had just recieved some bad news, see if they say 'OK thats understandable then, off you go and dont do it again'

    Darcy Ward

    Think they were, did'nt he live in a caravan behind the Kings lynn pits when he first came over?
  24. Dodger Blue

    Darcy Ward

    I agree that this has taken far too long to be sorted, however I can only assume that the Poole management believed that Darcy would get away with no ban (cant see why myself) as they obviously felt no replacement would be needed. It just goes to show how high their opinion of themselves really is!!! It was plain stupid not to plan a replacement and 'what goes around....'

    New Track For Milton Keynes

    I remember going to the opening meeting at The Groveway, I sincerely hope that I get the opportunity to attend the opening meeting of this new track next year. Good luck to all involved
