While it remains this way I am happy for the club to remain in the league with the most teams. And impossible to pick who will win the league as well. Enjoy the 6 team league. Hopefully Belle Vue will join you the so called Premiership is bobbins. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toft was a big loss to Peterborough.Palin did come in one of Toft's races but this enabled Andersen to have 2 of Palin's programmed rides.Palin only had 3 rides which he has to do.

SPEEDY69 1,260 Posted September 28, 2021 If, as a few seem to be saying on here, there is little difference in strength between Premiership and Championship, are those doubling up riders sporting the same averages in each league? Genuine question. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rob Lyon plotted his resources well again , i thought that Peterborough could of had a 0-5 in heat 3 Morris fell on his own then Douglas moved over out of the graveyard gate 1 and went into MPT taking his space, many including the ref didn't see it that way but with the track wet at the start he seemed to take that into consideration.

ruckerroo 792 Posted September 28, 2021 Really good team management from rob lyon, did everything he could. People are worried about bjarne at reserve, hes not been shining but theres no tight corners at the other 3 tracks left and he ought to get his whack ( if of course panthers go thru) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He always seems calm, composed and reasonable in his interviews. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

martinmauger 584 Posted September 28, 2021 Stating the obvious Lyons rallied his riders very well. After Schlein's pass of the two Panthers I thought Wolves would kick on but they didn't really. All still to play for of course and in speedway one never knows but at this stage it's gotta be 'advantage Peterborough'.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A six team league is pants! Down to four then, five if you include Swindon! Sure I read that they are not letting anyone else 'drop down' into the championship.

Grachan 7,362 Posted September 28, 2021 The replay is on Eurosport at the moment. Just shown a replay of Hans' going down in Heat 14. Quite funny to see the replay and see him give a little look to the left to see the Wolves pair leading before going down. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shame they threw out the “professional foul” rule which would have made his team partner start off 15 metres in the re-run 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
