New era Panthers 2,055 Posted September 20, 2018 1 hour ago, waco said: Apparently Peterborough are supposed to have.. turned down 3 different dates to race at lakeside ..how true that is i do not know.but there has been a fair bit said about it in this neck of the woods ,,and not favourably '' Some of that could arguably be blamed on Scunny.... I've only heard of 1 date which was offered that Panthers declined through rider availability but it would have gone ahead long ago had Scunthorpe's Rob Godfrey not got involved and had the meeting postponed and as for picking Lakeside at Rye House in the play off semi's , well can you blame them for that . 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No you can’t blame them, 99% of us would have done the same. Whether it’s right is another matter and it seems to be instilled in the majority of promotions that success will be put above paying speedway fans the majority of the time 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cityrebel 2,960 Posted September 20, 2018 The awful forecast for Sunday will kill the crowd, even if it's on. The weather was bound to change at some point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marko 956 Posted September 20, 2018 I would guess a doubler header the following Saturday taking on Panthers twice in different competitions, at least this time the Hammers will be no more tired in the second match than the Panthers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unfortunately there is a Long Track meeting at Rye during the day on the 29th so that ideas a no go - they could always toss a coin to decide the winner though (lol) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I meant flat track, but with so many "improvements" going on at Rye including the piles of mud on the centre green anything could be possible (lol) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
