We still get some superb action but compared to what it used to be like we're missing 20% of the product. Iversen particularly tries what used to work in years gone by and can go wide for the pass for the lead but come out of the bend in 3rd or 4th. It must be so frustrating for the riders? However, that's a bit of a side issue as we fight for our future. Panthers as a club are now on fire (not literally as some may wish) at just the right time. If ever you wanted to see absolute speedway quality then Artem Laguta is it, both on track and his reaction to the fans. God knows who that imposter was who turned up at his first meeting? I think what was more impressive was getting up after being cleared out on Monday night and then winning the re run with a top move. Could quite easily of just called it a night after that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You cant say that on here Rusky . But your right. Look at the team since CJ jacked cleaning the bogs. It will get the usual laughing emoji's from the usual suspects no doubt Edited September 8, 2023 by Bald Bloke 3 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(My first was in 78 and in 98 and 99 it was my 'local track'). What struck me was how there was absolutely no mention of the stadium's fate. It us almost as if someone in charge doesn't want people objecting! Yes - very strange isn’t it? There must be a reason - brown envelopes I suspect - sad! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bagpuss 10,780 Posted September 9, 2023 Truth is we'll never know, but if he hadn't fallen off and managed to have an injury and fall-free run for the first weeks of the season I expect things would have been very different. I do agree with a previous comment, it's a bit of a coincidence that the team has become a lot stronger since the former co promoter left the scene 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That signing ultimately was where all went wrong this season for The Club - but look at us now - just shows what could have been! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
