shady 20 Posted May 24, 2016 (edited) You mean like you stuck by Nicki Barrett last season . If things are not going right any team are likely to make changes. Totally object to that comment New era Panthers. You have touched a raw nerve here. I pride myself on giving riders every chance. Nicki stayed with me whilst he rode in the UK and I think you might find that he had decided he wanted a break from PL speedway LONG before he was replaced. Had it been up to him he would have gone earlier, he only stayed as long as he did because I was hoping he would change his mind and I was asking him to give it time.

jenga 2,998 Posted July 11, 2016 roll on Saturday 16th july . it will have been five (5) weeks without a home meeting . not good for speedway and the riders . BAD fixture list . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord Lucan 375 Posted July 11, 2016 roll on Saturday 16th july . it will have been five (5) weeks without a home meeting . not good for speedway and the riders . BAD fixture list . Not good for supporters either, make that at least six for me as I'm working this week so will miss the upcoming Rye match!! Getting pretty fed up of this now it's happening almost every year, so much so that I'll probably call it a day, just got too used to not going, sad situation!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jenga 2,998 Posted July 11, 2016 speedway needs a home fixture every week to keep things sweet . we go into the rye meet cold as a polar bear . could be a shock result. but who is to blame ? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Comet Dan 111 Posted July 11, 2016 It's sad to read these comments. It's been incredibly frustrating for everyone concerned but we cannot beat Mother Nature. We hope to see as many there as possible on Saturday. Fingers crossed for a sunny day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lord Lucan 375 Posted July 11, 2016 Good luck with that CD, I hope you get a nice day also, got some catching up to do!! Not always the fault of Mother Nature tho is it, from my perspective, working is the big issue but blank weekends dont help me either just as much as a rain off doesn't, shame that very few clubs will make an effort to bring matches forward in order to help one another out especially when times are tough and support dwindling at the least opportunity? It's a big ask to maintain support when you continually have nothing "too" support? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
