He said that he’d put in thousands of hours work into the club over the years That is true, That was MT job, but he hasn't delivered.

In fact its getting seriously to the point of if they can really survive the season, For Ulrich's sake i hope its lasts until after his farewell as he deserves his meeting in the very least , but at least he has Glasgow as a back up hopefully. They have to finish the season. If they fold, it will only add to the speedway isn't worth the expense of a new site..

On Facebook now in his bio he just says he’s the club sponsor at Peterborough now. Interesting that even on his page he was Peterborough mad at the start of the season by the looks of it and very little of late. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They really have morphed into the new Banter speedway club. Hilarious but sad at the same time. Some of the best comments are people talking about signing Holder as no.1 still when he’s currently sidelined with broken bones. I remember when forums where the Antichrist. Frost/Mahoney ditched Panthers forum to keep things controlled/professional and in-house with basic one way (out) communications. The management never got involved with supporters (well Julie did once or twice to a selective worthless bunch, but that was it). Always a mistake to rise to the bait. However, if you don't communicate effectively but still want to interact and play the social media game then those are the problems that you create for yourself. It's usually at desperate times and always ends in a slanging match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Cheese 2,025 Posted May 21, 2023 There can't be another sport where those running/connected with teams are so obsessed with moaning about keyboard warriors and making unprofessional comments/statements. What do they think it's actually going to achieve? There's not one club who can afford to alienate their supporters, if just 1 person decides 'I've had enough' after reading them, how are you replacing that £300+? If you can't handle a few critical comments then maybe either don't put yourself in that position or stay off social media. Whatever you do, it should be pretty simple to understand you don't start having a pop at your supporters because you need them. 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scoobydoo 2,259 Posted May 21, 2023 Im of the opinion that MTs co promoter/ sponsor status is all down to the Holdergate rift issue with Buster , its sounding like hes taken a backstep from what was expected/agreed to happen at the time and now the relationship has broken down to the extent that he has withdrawn any further cash input , hes said on SM hes put money in but it points now towards him not being prepared to put any more money in with how the situation is . If the rumour of him and Ged teaming up is true then this most likely has been formed to buy out Buster only if the situation of the clubs future improves . Maybe even John Clarke would get involved as Crendons owner also . But this is just my opinion and nothing else. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lets hope between them they can keep the Panthers going, if the rumour turns out to be true. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
