Would the nearby housing not be a problem??

Unlike you to come up with something negative!

This is disgraceful from Pedersen, there must be a way he can be held accountable for this kind of action. Utter contempt for Peterborough speedway and British fans. Absolute a**hole !!

I think it's probably his polish club banning him from riding over here

Yes probably, but no different to what it is at the EES

I don't think they have said he cannot ride (officially they cannot do that with the agreement between the federations) but they could invoke changes in his deal

From the Chinese whispers he was signed in Poland on the basis of not riding in the UK and a signing on fee agreed. Half paid in the winter and half to come at the start of the season

I understand the second half was to be withdrawn from the deal if he continued in the UK and as that alone was worth more than he could earn in the entire UK season then it became a no brainer to give up the place with the Pussycats

Maybe true,  maybe not but it sounds a lot more feasible than the lame "my body isn't up to the technical British tracks" trotted out in the statement

Bigger problem is potential demolition but if the proposal hasn't got to council and they want to agree with their local plan for the EoES then they can refuse the  Fengate Land Holdings Limited (FLHL) application and a deal can be agreed to move Peterborough Speedway in with a sensible curfew to appease the few locals: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cambridgeshire-64335400

Nicki left his loyal wife and traded her in for a cheap tart.

That's the kind of man he is.

Your close to the line there... But you already know that.

Surely that's all a metaphor........... BRF is saying P'bro is the loyal wife, the Polish club are the cheap tart............

That doesn't make sense.

Why would Nicki choose to ride in Britain if that was true?

Maybe to help out his mate Buster who was left without a no 1. Once he had ridden for the club guests could then be used when he "gave up". On arriving at the Purplecats, he maybe realised all was not well so the crash on a poorly prepared track then gave Nicki / Buster the ideal opportunity needed to leave, all be it quicker than 1st planned. 

MT silence on the matter speaks volumes imo....

Considering so many teams promoters were not impressed when Plymouth did it last season, I am surprised they haven't changed the ruling on it.

You never know when you might need to take advantage of some of the rules and regs yourself...;)

Best of luck to Phil Morris....:D

Don't rely on the council to grant planning permission with any sporting activities in this city.

You've only got to look at the football club to realise they don't give a damn. More interested in massive distribution centres and housing developments.
