TTT Posted April 12, 2023 Report Share Posted April 12, 2023 The thing that makes me laugh and I've given Tomalin a huge pass this winter is all of the new era talk and the rebranding to the purple colours knowing we've only got 6 months left. May as well have stuck with the traditional colours. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has he walked away? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a good point. There is a social media channel on Facebook for Panthers chat and he was previously very vocal until the start of the season. He has gone very quiet since.

BluPanther Posted April 12, 2023 Report Share Posted April 12, 2023 Looks like the Panthers curtain will come down on Monday August 28th v Ipswich... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishersGate Posted April 12, 2023 Report Share Posted April 12, 2023 Can someone pay Steve Lawson to help out? He clearly knows how to start from scratch with a new site. I do feel the panthers need a compete reset. A new site and maybe a chance of leagues. I don't know I'm just sad that the panthers maybe gone for a while.

Fair points tbh. Michael does seem to be a lot quieter now than he was at the start of the season as mentioned by Smiler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purplepanthernotred Posted April 12, 2023 Report Share Posted April 12, 2023 Tbh in my opinion Tomalin looks a fool, spouting about what we are gunna do and making promises that he clearly hasn’t kept YET. This is the most bumpy ride of a take over if there even is gunna be one now which I doubt. Sad sad way too end 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sully Posted April 12, 2023 Report Share Posted April 12, 2023 Whatever the rights and wrongs of the holder situation, you would have to think after investing a load of money into the club and getting holder lined up to then have that vetoed, followed by his replacement calling it quits after not completing a lap, MT couldn’t really be blamed for walking away. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishersGate Posted April 12, 2023 Report Share Posted April 12, 2023 So Peterborough will be gone. Edinburgh maybe as well next year, mildenhall possibly as well. Birmingham could possibly and no sign of any other clubs coming back? God this is dreadful..BSPA what are doing about this.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't be surprised if they decide to follow us because CVS did say in the winter that Wolves wouldn't have run this year if it was a six team Premiership.

And CVS said earlier this year if there hadn't been an extra team in the league this season he would have pulled Wolves.But unlike Peterborough(if the Showground is no more)we would still have a track to race on.So it would need looking for someone to purchase the club lock,stock and barrel. Sudden Sam has been mentioned in the past.Also,CVS and Adams are now both in their 70,s and can't go on forever. Edited April 12, 2023 by Tommy Sweetman Added more .

TTT Posted April 12, 2023 Report Share Posted April 12, 2023 Fair to say that everyone has to take the blame for this winter, Management haven't been on the same page, Awful decisions have been taken whether it's branding, rider signings etc. Buster hasn't covered himself in glory by thwarting Tomalin's side, Tomalin hasn't covered himself in glory by making promises and statements that he can't keep or back up. It's just one big mess at the end of the day and it's a shame that we're going out on a negative note rather than a positive one like Swindon did a few years back. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birmingham could possibly and no sign of any other clubs coming back? God this is dreadful..BSPA what are doing about this.. Let's not be surprised! Speedway has been rapidly going to the dogs for years. Poorly run by those in authority and promoters who by their own admission, have watched it get this state without doing sod all about it. Rugby league was going the same way a few years ago, but it was revamped and taken over by people who cared about the sport and its now thriving. Possibly to late for Speedway unfortunately. It needed a revamp years ago, but was and still is just plodding along with track closures becoming more regular, falling attendances and no sign bringing it in line with other popular sports. I forecast in less than 10 years that there will be only one league running in this country with possible 10 or less teams. Sad, but fact !! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fourentee Posted April 12, 2023 Report Share Posted April 12, 2023 The statement is a grim read for any speedway fan, let alone Peterborough supporters. A huge shame. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything is Busters fault you know. Now it's Buster fault that you might shut down at the end of the season now that MT has not come good.. Come on.. Billy Big Spuds promised so much, got way ahead of himself (Agreed a deal with Holder) and not delivered.. Hasn't he just bought a 26 acre site ? If i was Buster i'd walk now and have one goodbye meeting, with all the stick he is getting.... All he is going to get is slagged off all season, for what....
