What direct BSPA ruling did Panthers go against. A Referee told me you can change your team up to 1.5 hours prior to the match starting.

Cloudy but dry most of the afternoon

To be fair it's difficult to argue against that.

That's a very good question I wonder why, could it be that Robert Lambert has more Polish commitments and Newcastle are now in a position with home dates available but no No 1.

lol

I rather think most Peterborough fans think you go on.

16.2.7 A SGB Premiership or Championship League rider will establish an MA after 4 Home and 4 Away fixtures, becoming effective 7 days after the last qualifying Meeting. Should an Established MA not be achieved to be effective from 1st May, then the MC may issue a revised MA, based upon actual rides if the Team re-declares. That's what the rule says, it wasn't followed for Premiership riders, utterly ludicrous

I thought everyone got a new average after 4H and 4A this year but it didn't happen in the Premiership.

Why, like all the 100 club members he pays his monthly dues like the rest the Panthers supporters and good luck to him. Incidentally Ben is his second cousin. Just out of interest Lukas are you a member of the 100 club.

Right I have read it So let's see if I have this correctly, because a Newcastle Speedway PR has said Lambert has been told to ride in Poland by the ISLB that everyone should believe this as gospel. I seem to recall a Kings Lynn PR the other week saying they had a full 1-7 when in fact MPT was riding in Denmark.

Because it's bull$hyte How many times have we heard that home federations have ordered riders to ride in their domestic leagues rather than the UK.

NDL G*: a rider eligible for a NDL Team who has never achieved an actual PL MA of 4.00 or above and not currently in a Premiership or Championship 1-7.

Most people outside of the sport have never even heard of speedway.

Rain finally packed up around 3.00pm, meeting on and no further rain forecast today

Just spoke to a friend trackside and they hadn't watered it so rain hasn't hurt it so far, it's now easing off so hopefully ok. Rain forecast to have left the area by 4.00pm.

As has been reported weather forecast has improved dramatically and now just the odd chance of showers which shouldn't threaten the match tonight.

I just love the Kings Lynn match preview and I quote " The only current absentee is Nicklas Porsing (concussion) with regular stand in Simon Lambert stepping into the breach at reserve" Porsing top scored for Rospiggarna tonight scoring 13+1, not bad for someone with concussion.

Barker accepted a guest booking for Peterborough at Glasgow cried off on the day saying he was unwell and then practised the same day at Stoke later on, the SCB apparently were not interested in doing anything about it.

A tweet reported from BJERRE this afternoon saying he was on one of his brothers engine as problems with his. Sounds like it wasn't any better than his own.

Looks ok to me

What's the news re CAMPTON, withdrawn last night at Berwick after crashes and no mention on either the Workington or Berwick web sites.

I agree which makes it all the more concerning that 3 members of the Management Committee attempted to persuade the referee to do just that. It doesn't say a lot for the integrity of the MC does it.

And Godfrey confirms it in the star today, he wants or needs 500 to break even next Sunday.

I was going to say it's about time everyone did what most Panthers fans do and just ignore the idiot

Read what I put David, I said the track caused the riders problems and judging by the falls and comments early doors it did. Of course going by numerous comments this year and no less a former world champion, the track clearly isn't currently at its best and to be fair from my visits over the last decade or so it's not getting any better. Of course he didn't, Chapman would have known what meetings he couldn't do when he signed him, its basic team management.
