  1. I see Updates had Danny Philips down as Berwicks number 8.. was that correct? - I thought that he was our number 8 and we had in fact purchased him as an Asset a couple of months back!
  2. Speedway - Lambert looking for more points Red-hot reserve Simon Lambert. Red-hot reserve Simon Lambert is out to pile up more points as Panthers attempt to extend their unbeaten start to the Premier League season tonight (May 29). The Readypower Panthers – one of just two teams yet to beaten in the league – entertain Berwick Bandits at the East of England Showground (7.30pm). And Lambert is determined to make it a hat-trick of double-figures displays in succession after pocketing a dozen points in the club’s last Premier League outing - a 45-45 draw at Sheffield - before delivering a match-winning haul of 15+1 in the Travel Plus Tours KO Cup first round, first leg showdown against Plymouth on Bank Holiday Monday. Lambert said: “In all honesty I was a bit disappointed with 12 points at Sheffield because I didn’t make a single start all night there. “But I was much happier on Bank Holiday Monday and it was probably the best I have ever ridden a speedway bike. I was making starts, I felt fast and scored some good points. “I’m really enjoying my racing at Peterborough. It’s also great to be riding on my doorstep as it means a lot of my family and friends can get along to support. “Hopefully my good form can continue against Berwick who have started the league season well themselves. “But we are proud of our unbeaten record in the league and want to keep it going for as long as we can.” Panthers have drafted in Lasse Bjerre to guest at number one while they operate the rider replacement facility to cover the absence of injured Lewis Blackbird. Berwick are spearheaded by one of the leading riders at Premier League level, Ben Barker, and they also have an in-form reserve of their own with Richard Hall piling up the points in recent meetings. Hall is a popular figure with Peterborough supporters after starring in the Elite League title success of 2006 and will be anxious to erase the memory of a fruitless return to Panthers colours last season. Like Panthers, Berwick also track a much-changed team after losing two riders to serious injuries in the space of as many meetings last week. Czech ace Hynek Stichauer suffered a broken ankle in a crash last Thursday and Claus Vissing damaged knee ligaments on Saturday. Jan Graversen and Ryan Fisher, who raced at the Showground for his regular club Plymouth on Bank Holiday Monday, have received guest bookings. The Bandits also operate rider replacement for Thomas Jorgensen who has a fixture clash in his native Denmark. READYPOWER PANTHERS: Lasse Bjerre (guest), Rider replacement for Lewis Blackbird, Ollie Greenwood, Robert Lambert, Simon Lambert, Ulrich Ostergaard, Michael Palm Toft. BERWICK: Ben Barker, Kevin Doolan, Alex Edberg, Ryan Fisher (guest), Jan Graversen (guest), Richard Hall, Rider replacement for Thomas Jorgensen. http://www.peterboroughtoday.co.uk/sport/speedway/speedway-lambert-looking-for-more-points-1-6770058
  3. Poole were trying to win the meeting why on earth would Middlo put him in heat 13?
  4. Agent Watt.... strikes again! Davey Watt - 0,0,0 = 0 :rofl:
  5. Bandits out to steal unbeaten record Lasse Bjerre will guest for Panthers. A former Panthers title hero is bidding to end their unbeaten Premier League record tomorrow night (May 29). Richard Hall was a key member of the city side that roared to Elite League glory back in 2006. He remains popular with Showground supporters despite enduring a torrid return to the club last season when he eventually stepped down from the side after only a matter of weeks. But he is back in considerably better form after being drafted in by Berwick Bandits in the early weeks of the current season. And he reckons a tasty Friday tussle is in prospect between two in-form yet injury-plagued teams . Hall said: “Peterborough will always be a special place to me and I can still remember that title win of 2006 like it was yesterday. “The Showground is such a good track to ride and I’m just gutted it didn’t work out last year when the club brought me back. “I came in at a tough time late in the season and I put myself under far too much pressure. It wasn’t happening for me and that’s why I decided to stand down because I was just wasting my own money and that of the club. “I’ve invested in a lot of new equipment since then and crucially I am enjoying my speedway again. “This is the first time I’ve been at reserve in the Premier League since 2002 and I’ve been scoring well. “I’m expecting a really good meeting tomorrow and hoping for a few more points. “Panthers look to have a very strong team and we have been going well too. We’ve got a couple of good guests in and we definitely want to be the first team to beat Peterborough in the league.” Panthers ave called in Lasse Bjerre to guest at number one and will also operate the rider replacement facility for sidelined Lewis Blackbird. Berwick are also troubled by injury problems after losing two riders in the space of as many meetings during last week. Czech ace Hynek Stichauer suffered a broken ankle as they made KO Cup progress at Ipswich last Thursday before ex-Panthers man Claus Vissing suffered knee ligament damage in a Saturday spill in a league win over Redcar. They have booked Jan Graversen of Redcar to replace Stichauer and turned to former Showground star Ryan Fisher to fill the Vissing void. They are also expected to have Thomas Jorgensen missing due to a fixture clash in his native Denmark. Panthers surrendered top spot without turning a wheel in league action as Somerset jumped to the summit following a thumping away win at lowly Scunthorpe on Bank Holiday Monday. The Rebels are top courtesy of a superior points difference, but they have ridden in one more meeting than Panthers. http://www.peterboroughtoday.co.uk/sport/speedway
  6. I cannot get from Canary Wharf to EOES for 7.30pm on a Friday - Almost Mission impossible - M11/25 Junction and A14 are almost gridlocked that time on Friday evening Richard has nothing to prove to us Panthers fans - Hero of Play off final 2006... I doubt it somehow - a sub standard rider on sub standard equipment these days!
  7. one of the thickest posts I have ever read on this forum.... Crikey, you're pretty special!
  8. What was agent Watt up to last night? Facilitating the return of Mr Darcy as part of Matt Frauds Master Plan... I bet Middlo's B&B was pretty full with all those guests last night....
  9. indeed - nothing more than a routine comfortable home win - & Lasse scoring 0 in heat one!
  10. Wonderful promotion of this fixture so far.. hats off to the promotion... Am guessing teams likely to be something as below... certainly don't expect Lewis Blackbird , Crazy Claus Vissing or Hynek Stichauer to be fit to ride. Peterborough Panthers 1. (Guest) 2. Michael Palm Toft 3. Robert Lambert 4. R/R 5. Ulrich Ostergaard 6. Oliver Greenwood 7. Simon Lambert Berwick Bandits 1. Ben Barker 2. (Guest) 3. Kevin Doolan 4. Thomas Jorgensen 5. R/R 6. Alexander Edberg 7. Richard Hall
  11. you just don't get it do you? like for like replacement or you have to redeclare the team back to agreed team building average. - as Noodles states that will stuff us big time... main factor due to both the Lambert's individual averages going up significantly already this season.. crikey never heard of him before.. In goal or bees?
  12. So who would you replace Olly Allen with? There is no one? As Sheffield can concur!
  13. until they redeclare or until the end of the season if they cannot find a suitable replacement
  14. I have to say I couldn't find a picture of him wearing any!!
  15. Speedway - Panthers whizzkid in GB World Cup team Peterborough Panthers prodigy Robert Lambert has been named in the Great Britain team to race in the World Cup. The 17 year-old sensation features alongside former world champion Tai Woffinden, Grand Prix racer Chris Harris and Huntingdon man Danny King in the quartet to take on Australia, America and Latvia in Event Two at King’s Lynn on June 8. It continues a rapid rise for Lambert who recently made his senior international debut in the final round of the Speedway Best Pairs competition. And Great Britain boss Alun Rossiter insists he has earned his place on one of the sport’s biggest stages. He said: “Robert is included in the team on merit. “He is having a very good season and showed everyone how competitive he can be at the top level in the Best Pairs recently - and he also showed he has no fear.” http://www.peterboroughtoday.co.uk/sport/speedway/speedway-panthers-whizzkid-in-gb-world-cup-team-1-6763992
