  1. Has the Brady v Chapman spat been settled yet ?

    Belle Vue v Ipswich 22nd April

    It is surely the riders responsibility to get to a meeting from wherever he/she starts there journey from, Tungate i believe said he was stuck in traffic holdups on route to the airport , was it then his fault for the hold ups but he ended up with a ban and fine so why not Doyle, Assume an investigation is held by the SCB to find out what the rider actually did and to provide proof of there actions to resolve the travel issue in an attempt to still make the meeting If Tungate and Doyle were both therefore not in a position to make alternative arrangements given time scales etc then they should be treated in the same manner , But this is British Speedway and at times no 2 cases that seem the same have the same outcome sadly .

    If Chapman carries out his said intention that 2024 is his last season in Speedway. Maybe the consortium should buy the Panthers licence and use the AFA temporarily to run the Panthers team until a closer to home resolution is found for the Peterborough area,
  4. With the inclusion of BSN meetings in riders averages now theres every chance by the time Oxford return in the league there team could be stronger and the at present long tail shortened. this score could end up being a blessing in disguise for the Cheetahs.
  5. At least hes got some spare hinges for the pit gate now, courtesy of the fence demolition at Peterborough

    Until the outcome is finally resolved concerning the LP policies, it doesn't matter who is or isnt involved & the club will remain in its present state of limbo No fool would invest a vast amount of money from there own pocket whatever there wealth if theres a chance of funds having to be made available from elsewhere. If the club does have a future the consortium will then go though and buy out Chapman and who knows have a future plot of land ready to go or even an emotional return to the showground .

    Cannot see AEPG stumping up any money anytime soon even if they were told to adhere to the policy , They will just drag there heals no doubt stating they need to sell x amount of houses to fund the costs thus dragging it on and hoping the interest will go away from those wanting the speedway to return, It could be there cheapest option if there told to comply to the policy just to hand over the land the track and Grandstand are sat on in its present state, But cannot really see them even doing this , so as stated this could be a very long winded stand off that could stretch into many years of frustration.
  8. If the meeting goes ahead tonight someones going to have lots of fun cleaning the white Oxford team kevlars !!
  9. Did someone called Catherine send you that picture by any chance

    The last few words will give many a Panthers fans a chuckle , its taken from the Lynn Premiership preview on the British Speedway website "It is perhaps little surprise that there is a healthy former Peterborough contingent in the Lynn team of 2024, which was a logical move when it became clear that the site owners were giving the Panthers no prospect of continuing at the Showground despite the extensive efforts of Keith Chapman and his team."

    Now that the track lights have been completely removed ,did they end up going to Workington as rumoured or elsewhere or for scrap . Absolutely depressing to see the showground as it is now from the recent video,
  12. When ever i have attempted to sign in to account these past weeks either on tablet or phone it states the connection is not secure, only site that does this on my devices, haven't been able to use any of the like/funny buttons at all during this time, just really gives me another reason to continue to give the sport even more of a wide berth now

    Workington 2024

    As an unattached rider expect shes adapted to just changing in a van but now shes apart of an official league team within the Uk she has to be entitled to the same facilities as her team mates , its something completely new within british speedway and im sure her requirements will be met , would be a bummer if there made to provide something that costs the clubs then she got dropped from the team.

    Workington 2024

    Does this signing mean all championship clubs will now need to provide separate changing and shower facilities for her .
  15. Will team changes be on the agenda if Buster has to payout the 35k , Tarasenko and Wojdylo out , Jorgensen and Simon Lambert in ?

  17. Jordan hasnt exactly had alot of sucessful meetings at Foxhall but hes not afraid to test himself further , Would of expected him to be at Oxford in both Premiership & Championship but this deal most likely agreed before Oxford announced running in Premiership Been a steadily Improving rider last couple seasons , look after him as he hopefully will be required back at Peterborough in 2025 he says very hopefully.

    One can really only hope that the two parties Chapman and the Consortium have sat down and come to a mutual agreement concerning the sale of the club, Chapman only gets an agreed price for the club if the future of the team is extended but he has no involvment in the fight to save the club The Consortium pays an agreed price if the club gets an extention to its future on track that also reflects the fact they have done all the donkey work to keep the club running . Nothing will be announced in the mean time unless the outcome of the fight is sorted Chapman maybe a shrewd businesses man but hes dealing with a Consortium who are equally just as shrewd in busuness.

    Who will actually be representing the club as the "current" owner of the Peterborough Panthers for the meeting on December 6th

    It was posted by Cllr Julie Stevenson , unless she is now on the consortium and has put up some cash as well it wont be that

    Peterborough Panthers 2023

    Would of had to of been a very quick agreement to a meeting even taking place let alone any deal to extend so cannot see that being the announcement, There has been talk on FB of a date being arranged to conduct a "protest" walk in Peterborough , with advice to get the tshirts , banners and flags ready So my guess its time to get your warm winter coat and suitable footware sorted .

    Is It possible that the Peterborough Panthers name is all the consortium may want to buy at this stage , Its been stated on here that the air fence is worthless as its past its expiry and was due to be replaced for 2024.

    King’s Lynn 2024

    Started by the same person as well, maybe get the hat trick soon

    Peterborough Panthers 2023

    I would of thought many Panthers fans would of been more interested in seeing Max Perry race , than someone like Jason Edwards or Ashton Boughton no disrespect to either but Max had links to the Panthers as a former Mascot
