Purplepanthernotred 155 Posted September 16, 2022 Unfortunately I think I’m in dream world when I say this but I’d like Harris basso and Pickering, not fussed about the others, they’ve been crap this season. Jenkins has had a real good go and arguably has thrown his name into the mix. Nicholls has had it this year he’s been terrible so has Hans, and I’m sick of this love affair with ulrich, get him gone don’t need him. Douglas would also be a good shout. And Kenneth Bjerre if he can be tempted back too work with rob Lyon. Who knows I think it’ll be a long winter ahead Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flappy 1,605 Posted September 16, 2022 If it's 7 new riders so be it. Riders like Douglas, King, Basso, Pickering and even Cook are on averages which I think would improve around Peterborough regularly. Would also be nice to see a proper number 1 around the place again given it's our last year at the showground I hope we don't persist with the like of Ostergaard and Andersen again 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was an okay rider at championship level, yes he did well at the start of last season in the reserve berth but this season he’s been found out and just isn’t good enough I’m afraid.

proud panther 1,505 Posted September 16, 2022 (edited) Get some younger riders in the team, who can improve as the season progresses. Watching Basso has been the highlight for me this year, & Jenkins has improved as well. Edited September 16, 2022 by proud panther 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Falcon1983 557 Posted September 17, 2022 Its a difficult one, with nothing concrete for 2024, would a rider choose Peterborough for one season over another club who have a more secure future? Obviously averages fit so riders will be available but feel on a first choice basis it won't be Peterborough unless sentiment plays a role I'd go with a side such as 1. Harris 2. Ostegaard 3. Lawson 4. Basso 5. Iversen 6. Allen 7. Jenkins Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,780 Posted September 17, 2022 Hmmm I'm not sure riders look much further ahead than the next season really, if the finances and logistics work for them then they will take the deal. Can see a few riders swapping between the AFA and the EoES, probably not a bad thing to freshen some up a bit. There's a large pool of riders that both teams have used and assuming the Polish rules are relaxed and the wealthier clubs don't come sniffing you can certainly see the likes of Iversen, Lawson, Bjerre, possibly Klindt lining up for P'boro. Jenkins looks worth persevering with. The Harris, Basso and MPT rumour has been mentioned and I'd take that with a pinch of salt but I'd have Nicholls at Lynn on that average without thinking twice.

If that’s the case I’m guessing 3 from Lynn will come the other way. Lawson. Jorgensen. Maybe NKI or klindt if they ride in uk next year Oh God I hope that's not true.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TTT 1,227 Posted September 17, 2022 Hans Andersen will be a Panther next year imo. No way would the club allow him to leave on his extremely low average. He's nailed on to ride @ No.6 for us in 2023 imo. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No way if he don’t gate he don’t score can’t pass wind at showground rather have oystercard tham him and I’d leave him out also Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Other riders on similar averages that aren't riding for us this year are Etheridge, Summers, Barker, Allen & Kerr. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Great rider in his day no one would disagree with that but sadly his time on a speedway bike is over in my opinion 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
