If he was sitting near me then the last thing he'd be doing is listening to his phone. In the listening choice section of the stand, the booming inaudible PA wins every time I was listening to England U21s, it was difficult to hear but 8-0 v the Japanese was a great result for the lads!

Air horns are fine but not in the hands of a groups of kids playing who can irritate the adults the most. I've read that some didn't see the problem. The good news is that Specsavers will check you ears as well as your eyes these days.

toot - you missed one! And in red we have, toot, toot, toot, and in blue we have toot, toot, toot, in white we have toot, toot, toot and in yellow it's toot, toot, toot - what could possibly go wrong!

Who's paying for that then? Has he won the Euro Lottery because we're told as a club we're not in the position to help either? Hope it doesn't go bang first meeting. “Rafal had said recently on Facebook that both his bikes needed attention and he didn’t have the money to fix them. “At this level you need to have two good standard bikes, it’s as simple as that. I know some of the supporters have helped him but unfortunately the club isn’t in a position, financially, to help him (gazettelive.co)

Thought it was Poole.

No, it'd be better if both adverts were positioned correctly on the boards in the first place. Shocking thing to say, but anyone who stayed away because of hoards of kids, good call I didn't

Can't be any worse than the £5 offer last year under the supremo and then almost closure thereafter.

A plus for the EL or being at Swindon but speedway at the EoES is actually worth the effort, roving mic as it's currently used, apart that is. No, that's correct. Plus if you're a hanger on to the group then you get a concession. The thinking is that the hardcore will turn up regardless on other nights whereas the kids might turn up again and bring a paying adult with them in future, or indeed turn into the future hardcore. It may work but history tells us that it's more likely tomorrow's chip paper. That offer and a tenner all round might have been better for this one but someone always has a gripe over something unfortunately; probably valid on most occasions I might add.

Short of VIPs attending are they, just hand a ticket to anyone walking by. Let's hope FP doesn't walk by, that'd lower the tone considerably

First point makes no difference so still no requirement to investigate part 2. Just try to imagine Edwin trying to tell you the line-up of the heat when the bike are already at tapes, totally pointless. It's probably better audio in the cheap seats?

Firstly you can't hear anything when the PA kicks in (including often making sense of what's coming out of the PA). Secondly, my phone makes and receives calls, that's it. I don't play the can't bloody leave my expensive mobile entertainment centre alone for 2 minutes game Bet Canary Wharf man will not like that

If they didn't turn out in their droves to watch a better show and better riders in the EL then the fact that we're a stepping stone for Lambert is going to make little difference. If he listens to Woffinden then he may not be riding the higher league next season (Higher League, you've got to laugh ) so hopefully some 6 fingered fans will also make the trip on your advice. Although can't people glimpse from elsewhere anyway should they so wish? Not that I'm advocating that of course: better live as I said. If only they could put the Sky feed through the PA during heat results, that'd be a real bonus (did it once in 1999 as we listened to The Knights blow the title (good quiz question) so it's not impossible).

I'd imagine that most of those who went to Swindon for a fiver to watch the so called highest level of British Speedway felt ripped off on both counts In our case, it's the fine line between losing money and trying to get a crowd in. This looks the least painful option but will enable Pearson to say what a good job the promotion have done to get the hoards of kids in throwing rotten fruit at him. Not the best headine to post. Whilst it isn't wholly inaccurate, it's easy to come to the wrong conclusion: Free admission for the big TV fixture (local rag headline) SKY CLASH WILL BE KIDS PLAY! (Panthers website)

It'll be better live and you get the chance to do a Basil Fawlty if there's an irritating kid near you who doesn't like the chips.

Normal admission unless you can follow in an adult with a group of brats and say that you're with them

I know, but unfortunately while the lunatics are in charge of the asylum then that's the way it will be. Always good to have the opportunity to remind people of Jason Crump & friends Tell us which forecast, looks one to avoid in future!

Not much change in Panthers 1999 Elite League Champions,

Two full sides of each team's own riders would be news these days. Usually work fine for me. They do change throughout the day but so does the weather. It's already looking better than it was so think that they will probably get away with this.

Didn't understand that either, and without knowing the detail, but for the falls and exclusion (and what sounds like a heat 15 easy get out home decision by the ref?) then we would probably have still nicked this.

I don't know about closet Rockets fan but he's doing a very good impression of Panthers King Canute

Well based on the rest of the post I'd tend to agree.

That's very true; so to get back on track, remind us what happend and remind us that this thread is not about Lambert, only in respect of his match winning performance: Newcastle Diamonds = 44 1. Lewis Kerr - 2 , F/X , 2 , 0 = 4 2. Anton Rosen - 0 , 3 , 2 , 0 = 5 3. Steve Worrall - 3 , 2 , 2 , 3 , 3 = 13 4. Christian Henry - 2' , 0 , 1' , 2' = 5+3 5. Ludvig Lindgren - 0 , 2 , 3 , 1 , 1 = 7 6. Simon Nielsen - 3 , 0 , 1 , 3 = 7 7. Lewis Rose - 2' , 1 , 0 , 0 , = 3+1 Peterborough Panthers = 46 1. Ben Barker (Guest) - 3 , 1 , 2 , 2' = 8+1 2. R/R for Lewis Blackbird - (SL - 1 , MPT - 3 , RL - 3 , SL - 0 = 7) 3. Robert Lambert - 1 , 3 , 3 , 3 , 2 , 2 = 14 4. Michael Palm Toft - 0 , 3 , 1 , 1 , F/X = 5 5. Ulrich Ostergaard - 2' , 2 , 3 , 3 , 0 = 10+1 6. Oliver Greenwood - 1 , 1' , 0 , (SL - 1') , 1 = 3+1 7. Simon Lambert - 1 , R , 3 , 1 , 0 , 1' , F/(OG - 1) = 6+1 (Withdrawn) speedwayupdates/newcastle-peterborough

zonkers liked your post, that's made my day already. I can't really compete with an ex "Panthers fan's viewpoint" (you'll need the programme or access to WWoS to get that) - I attend but am a pretender fan whereas the voice of experience last visited the EoES when? (since you mention closure, which is part due to lack of fan numbers) Certainly wasn't Friday so I can appreciate why she is empathetic to Lambert; although to you I don't understand Sorry for having a dig zonkers but it was self inficted

This is our own thread according to the title. If it was Panthers fans on a Newcastle v someone else thread then you'd have a case.

Apparently the FIM gave the Newcastle fans 24 hours after the meeting to recover from their team's defeat and they took the option
