I think Peterborough is too strong not to qualify for the play-offs. Good riders, good track, big home advantage, what's not to like about the Panthers. Can see the bookies odds against them being very good... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is great how we all have different opinions and Peterborough have really had a go and have assembled a good side.For me Poole out of the four i picked need Kurtz/ Holder to step up and both are exciting talents and i expect them to do that.Peterborough away is where i believe they will be vulnerable also i am not totally convinced with there reserves away, both are experienced but other clubs have younger and maybe more hungrier reserves we shall see.

Lets hope the referees keep an eye on all the rolling starts with Cook and Andersen in the team!!! Unless the new guidance to refs is to let all starts go unless the tapes are touched, in which case the Panthers will be virtually unbeatable at the Showground?!

Indeed, and I don’t believe it’s so great in the top league. Also it won’t be there immediately with six riders who didn’t race for the club in 2018. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hyderd 1,216 Posted February 8, 2019 4 hours ago, BluPanther said: All teams have Home advantage tbh, that's the nature of the sport ... ummm,that's debatable, of the 7 clubs only 1 has a definite home advantage plus they have riders that can win them points on their travels.
