Yep,a rich Del boy who likes showing the world what he eats for breakfast.

As I've said communication is key with your customer base even if there's stuff going on that's being sorted tell us. It's not exactly difficult to do, keeping people in the dark is not a good way to treat customers who they want to buy tickets, it's not a good way to promote the club and it actually comes across as arrogance. Is there a problem? If so tell us, we actually be able to help or know someone who can. That isn't solely Peterborough Panthers either that's many other speedway clubs and thousands of clubs in other sports to who are stuck in the 1990's. The fanbase is your community, keep them in the dark they become disengaged or disillusioned. Learn from the fanbase, not every comment with be helpful but listen to it, it's free advise. Lose your fans, you may never get them back.

Alfie is a good lad,he will get dialled in at home and score good points, does struggle away tbh not through lack of effort more to do with finding the right set up imo. I think he would have been retained at Plymouth but possibly the thinking is we are strong enough at home and Paul starke will score more away.

Do you ever learn you're as bad as him if you respond.

Thank's Arthur. I notice it didn't take him long to return to type and abuse you. It's ironic this is something that he regularly calls out along with bullying even when he is normally the protagonist ..

If you've not already joined , join my Facebook group Supporting Peterborough Panthers , put some of your views on there..

Something just feels “off” at the minute, if you have 7 riders signed then tell the fans. If you have a new team owner then tell the fans. We know Ipswich are having trouble hence the delay in their announcements and belle vue were the same last season. I’m told nothing has changed and we have 7 riders signed but I really don’t like the silence from the club

We are not even sure who the owner(s) are/is.

I think reassurance from the owners wouldn't go a miss , I'm sure everything think is going to there plan but I feel the supporters patience is wearing a bit thin

I think its being an asset of the same club for ten years nowadays. Its not for me personally as they seem to get handed out like confetti but there we are.

Early 2026 i believe...

That's not a surprise. .

That was last year, this is this year

One of my favorite riders, so exciting to watch. Such a shame to have his career cut short.

Cegeilski was excellent on small tracks. I remember he scored 16 on his first visit to Kirky Lane. A very good rider whose career was bitterly cut short.

A question. This year will see the 95th anniversary of the first meeting at High Beech. A special lunch is being held by the WSRA on 19 February to celebrate this event, with, I understand, an excellent guest speaker. Because it is a special anniversary, this year's celebration is being held at the original home, King's Oak. Since 2009, the annual celebration has been held at Paradise Wildlife Park, site of the Speedway Museum. Prior to that it was held at the King's Oak and organised by John Chaplin and Peter Lipscomb under their "Vintage Speedway Magazine" banner. The question is, does anyone know when John and Peter first organised the annual event? In which year?

On Wednesday night (January 18, 2023) Argentina takes on the Rest of the World in an 18-heat Speedway Test Match in Bahia Blanca. It's the first time ever that such an International match is held in Argentina. https://speedwaytotal.com/noticias/argentina-vs-el-resto-del-mundo/

Av heard Stephan Nielsen nearly made it into the team and thats another Heat Leader in the mix... Pleanty of riders out there looking for teams... Regards THJ

At least they’ll get to keep wooden spoon

Not sure on averages but when there is riders of this calibre missing out how can the argument of not enough riders of heat leader level be substantiated. I also believe it's a strong competitive league and thoroughly looking forward to it.

Surely max and drew have near 12 averages tho? Big chunk of team building on 1 rider. I personally think the league looks very competitive frim teams built so far.

The ignore button no good if people quote him though!

Try using the ignore function. "People" like Trackrat will eventually go away when everyone ignores them http://www.speedway-forum.co.uk/forums/index.php?/ignore/

Agree, practicing helps to a point but experience under race conditions is so valuable and can not be replaced by endless practice. . Learnt that for myself when I had a go at road racing & am certain same holds true for speedway.

So why set the points limit so high ?

Don't think Ryan Kinsley is fixed up with a team place for this coming season at the mo who rode at NL level the season just gone.

Only to the degree that 2/3 British riders are denied a place.

It is very difficult to believe that there is absolutely nothing that can be said.!! Suspect Busterism playing a great part in how this is playing out. But then we are only those that pay admission and are no more than a necessary evil to the bosses. Fans in their view should put up and shut up.

You wouldn’t brains.

Tut tut ........sad news marra,

At the time I was led to believe it was going to be about the new owner but maybe a delay in paperwork going through or something to do with the new site? But as times gone on I find it more and more concerning that we’ve had very very limited news. I’m still hoping for a big big season from panthers but as the season gets closer I fear of another bad one…. Time will tell

thanks for that!

Hopefully a bumper night away at Plymouth then !!

I don’t get why they told us all to listen to the local radio station back in November for a big big announcement! When clearly there was nothing to announce

Watching the Diamonds at Armadale in 2010 & being reminded of how good Bach & Larsen were! Made me remember how many great Danes the Diamonds had over the Years. What would be their strongest Danish 7? 1. Ole Olsen 2. Kenni Larsen 3. Bjarne Pedersen 4. Kenneth Bjerre 5. Nicki Pedersen 6. Rene Bach 7. Jesper Olsen

Guess we have to wait for the fixtures coming out, but would be happy to run may to end of August,every 2 weeks, then if qualified, play offs in September, before the weather turns unlike last year when still trying to run final at very end of October

I know what you’re saying, every 2 weeks would be just fine It’s just when you go 6 weeks without a meeting due to postponements and the fixture schedule being imbalanced etc. People can start to lose interest

All teams need to be supported. I feel for the club as no one wants to put out a weakened team and be whipping boys. I hope the Brum fans stick with their club during these tougher times and the club goes from strength to strength. Not turning up to support their team leads to only one outcome.

It won't be cheap plonk it'll be vintage Chateau La Briance 2021.

But why are they not doing the same for every other rider then? Just these three? Is it about the war or isn’t it? If they’re continuing to pontificate about the war in the Ukraine then they shouldn’t be allowing them to ride in Poland either should they? This makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

Just a dream

Hopefully we will get to see Dan Bewley round Wimborne Road

Will the winning team jump up and down with excitement while spraying cheap plonk over each other?

The gaps are for the 2nd Round of the KOC and/or the BSN Series progression and/or any postponed matches to be re-arranged, I believe.

There is always ways round things.....loop holes ...

Not Belle Vue's fault the rules were written out poorly!

Yes indeed, because flat track bikes and equipment is far easier to get out there compared to the very special speedway bikes. Flat track racing is even already popular in some of the other African countries, such as Zimbabwe https://www.herald.co.zw/flat-track-racing-back-at-dbrook/ By the way, South Africa still has plenty of speedway tracks, but just like in NZ or Australia most are nowadays used for the sprintcars/speedcars/Stockcars racing only. But there is also still a small but dedicated band of Speedway Sidecar racers out there in the Jo'burg area.
