  1. It isn’t, read the advert, it’s the East of England Agricultural Society selling THEIR equipment.
  2. Peterborough Panthers Speedway Supporters Club have been running what we call a 100 club for years, members pay £10 a month and 50% of money collected each month is paid out to 3 lucky members. Its been running for many years and provides the owners with cash for a variety of articles from air bags, fence panels, track equipment, shale etc or just funds to pay the maintenance bills and running costs associated with a speedway club. Keith Chapman is the latest owner to benefit and has remarked on it several times, this is in addition to the 50/50 raffle at every home meeting.
  3. All the equipment sold belongs to the outgoing SHOWGROUND owners, all the speedway tractors and track equipment is in the speedway compound or at Lynn under the control of Buster Chapman. The new Showground owners declined to buy the existing equipment so it’s been sold. It doesn’t affect the speedway at all.
  4. All the speedway owned equipment is in the speedway compound.
  5. Well Peterborough certainly didn’t get anything, they didn’t even supply trophies for either team in the final.
  6. What’s strange but not unusual is no statement from Len Silver denying this or explaining what has happened.
  7. To be fair I think he needs all the help he can get.
  8. Exactly how many of the BSPL five year plans lasted more than one season.
  9. It’s easier to just ring Pinegen and pay for one over the phone.
  10. I seriously doubt he will be on Peterborough’s list.
  11. Their is a better way, just exclude any rider who moves prior to the start when the green light is on, no replacement. This would eradicate all the nonsense at the tapes in a few meetings. Very few riders get excluded for a second offence in a meeting having been officially warned once, so they clearly know they get no leeway for trying to cheat.
  12. Prague is a lovely city to explore, just a shame about the speedway track which is dreadful.
  13. This years team was written off by pretty much everyone early doors, it didn’t stop them winning the league.
  14. Afraid I agree, I would have said Lynn is a better choice if he really wants to return. Harris, Nicholls, Andersen, MPT and Palin is a good start and of course Rob Lyon. I would like Ostergaard as well but next years points limit could well depend on that.
  15. Spot on Gordon Pairman and the point about vested interest is worth mentioning again, until we have people with integrity and complete honesty the sport in this country will continue to get worse.
  16. And this clearly shows how important the SON is to the riders this year, some just cannot be bothered and some of the Federations just let it happen. Very Amateurish.
  17. I rather suspect the weather will have the biggest say in what happens this year
  18. Any exclusion or retirement in the final and they lose it doesn’t matter how many points they are in front. I really don’t see why 21 heats cannot decide it, they always seem to over complicate things like the new GP scoring system.
  19. Don’t know for Belle Vue but Peterborough between 3000 and 3500.
