  1. Goodness me, this is embarrassing from the Peterborough management. Every fan wants to hear their management team interact with fans but there rules, those rules are, no matter how angry fans are don't belittle & down play their importance under any circumstances. As I've always said, a clubs closure is NEVER the fault of it's supporters. The blame is 100% owners.

  7. They are so far out of touch it is unreal. The only abuse that’s been dished it has come from their side. As I said to Johnson… when you are in a position of management… arguing with your fans on social media with comments like your own has made themselves and the Panthers look incredibly poor. These people are those who have kept the club afloat the past two years. An absolutely disgusting way to treat the paying customers, It’s clear to see PR hasn’t been covered in training staff members.

  8. Well Charles definitely doesnt lack aggression or will to win! Looked like if was Wrights fault so no idea why he was having a go at Zach, maybe he thinks its never his fault!

  10. I still remember hearing the news, could not believe it. I was walking to school the following morning, on the Friday. It was a lovely sunny morning, when one of my pals met me on the way and told me the sad news. Such a loss. Never forgotten RIP Tommy

  11. Harsh. He’s doing exactly what it says on the tin with him. He’s been a 5-6 point rider for many years now, what were you expecting? At this stage of his career he’s not going to suddenly blossom in to a 7 point rider. There’s little surprise either with Andersen or Iversen. People said they were on decent averages, they never were. They’re washed up has beens whose averages were only ever heading in one direction! You’ve cut Basso some slack there because of his age which is fair enough, but if one rider so far has been a big disappointment it’s definitely him. He’s been awful.

  19. As an Oxford fan who was starved of speedway for 14 years , be thankful that you are at least still running this year and get behind the club in any way you can to help . It will be a travesty if it goes , but I can’t help thinking if I were involved in the club how depressed I would feel reading some of the comments . The club needs you more now than when they were winning ..!

  21. Think there is too much emphasis on the precision of the averages,possibly a better grading system would suit.Let’s face it going to .01 is a bit ludicrous in speedway.

  22. You could argue that it's not the lowering of the averages is the problem, but the way certain teams have been put together. I think the idea behind the lowering of the averages was to try and cut out the number of "big-hitters" in the CL. But it has had the opposite effect in many cases and there are riders who have come in to the CL who are not ready.

  23. Exactly this, Worrall is doing what he does every year and is a 5.5-6.5 rider at best so holding his own, Cook in his first full season in the top league and Jenkins as the RS are doing what's expected of them generally also, the problem mainly lies with how the team was set up originally, Basso should never of been in a HL role in his second season, number 2 or 4 at best, and Andersen should of been shoehorned in at reserve if they were so keen to have him back again, and the other ageing Dane Iversen is simply past his best sadly as a HL in this league.

  25. Over the years in his many , programme columns, magazine columns and now blogs Dick has written a fair amount of drivell under his various guises, but this one must be close to the top of the list for absolute balderdash

  26. 2 mins extra on 6 That's the equivalent proportionally of FIFTEEN for a standard half There was nothing in the added time any more significant than during 'normal' play so the extra additional time should've been no more than say an extra 45 seconds Also looked like the ref was ready to blow if Boro cleared the ball but just carried on until the attack finished - which is wrong. When times up then times up....

  27. First time i've visited Glasgow this season and i left thinking this could be the year barring injuries that the Tigers lift some silverware. Bomber for me has always been box office regardless of where he rides, he's just a class act and worth the admission money on his own. Along with the in form duo of Basso and Brennan they form a strong heat leader trio. Glasgow seems to bring out the best in big Claus Vissing who along with Marcin Nowak form strong second strings. Ace Pjiper was very impressive tonight for someone 16 years old and as a Worky fan i'm gonna enjoy watching his progress for the Comets NDL team while the reborn Lee Complin is not far away from scoring bigger points. Bearing in mind it was cloudy most of the afternoon i was disappointed that there was dust from heat 1. Some of the racing was top drawer especially from Bomber and Tom Brennan. Scunny with the exception of flying Ryan Douglas and the early races of MPT were generally disappointing.The previous comments regarding their recent team changes are well justified in my opinion. At £20 pound admission and £3-50 for a programme its just as well the racing was generally entertaining.

  40. Was a tad dusty, but the wind was drying the track out as fast as the water going on, racing was much better than the scoreline suggested. Ryan Douglas was very impressive and MPT started really well then faded, Simon Lambert usually does well at Glasgow but struggled last night. Tigers middle pairing are a powerhouse and only Douglas managed to stop them. I was well impressed with young Ace, there is no pressure on the lad but he shows a level head for one so young, don't think he will keep that 2 point average for long. Maybe this will be the year for the Tigers but early days, we seem to have a habit of losing someone through injury at the business end of the season, maybe this year we will have some good luck and stay injury free.

  45. Not idiotic - realistic. We're in the middle of the worst cost of crisis in living memory, and a sport where tracks are dropping like flies. You seriously think the local council are going to allow money to be blown on something that, with the best will in the world, appeals to a couple of hundred people in the area? It's utter fantasy

  46. Enjoyed Leszno v Czestochowa. Some good racing but despite Kolodziej being head & shoulders above any other rider present the home team were well beaten. Don't get why most posters on this forum don't like Kolodziej, he's better to watch than most Poles.

  47. Buster Chapman and Rob Godfrey, the pair of clowns in charge of the sport at the time, certainly played a significant part in the closures of both Rye and Arena.
