Peterborough Panthers 2015
Dodger Blue replied to mudflaps's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
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. -

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

If we cant blame human's ..... it makes you wonder what animal is employed to lay the track!!!! -

Panthers V Plymouth - Lc Sunday 12th April - 3pm
Dodger Blue replied to mudflaps's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
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 -

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
Dodger Blue replied to Robinh88's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
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 -
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)
Dodger Blue replied to hampshire3321's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
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 -

Dodger Blue replied to mudflaps's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
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
Dodger Blue replied to mudflaps's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
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!!! -
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
Dodger Blue replied to NeilWatson's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
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
Dodger Blue replied to Lord Lucan's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
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
Dodger Blue replied to Dave Stummings's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
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
Dodger Blue replied to Panthers89's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
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!! -
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'

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

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....'

Dodger Blue replied to Main Man's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
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
