It is but how long are they going to keep trying?
Losing serious money every year is no good for him and no good for the sport.
I hate to see good people losing bundles to put on speedway fixtures
Great Post, I'm from Ettingshall originally and the sound of the bikes on a Friday night got me intruiged, my Dad agreed to take me as "they've got a bloke called Ole Olsen who is pretty good apparently..."
I was hooked, great times, good friends made
It's certainly in the "right" area being the industrial bit by the Football ground. I think the track is very small though so not sure what size track you could get inside it, maybe something Plymouth sized?
It's a "wolves at heart" team or such like not past Wolves as such
I'd guess at Harris, Nicholls (although he may replace Masters) Thorsell, Howarth, Kerr/Brennan Kileen, Clegg
Indeed, a friend of mine was involved in Gornal at the time, he said "you know about speedway dont you? Have a look at these" i've still got the drawings of the proposed stadium somewhere.
I agree it's madness, all this had been tried at PB before, what's the difference this time?
I hate seeing people lose huge sums of money putting on speedway
I seriously doubt anyone would get permission from the BSPL to operate a team within a reasonable distance of Peterborough without coming to an agreement with the current owner
This is correct, a deal now for the assets and rights to Peterborough speedway should be easy, negotiating an overage deal based on future happenings is much more difficult but certainly doable
It's on the Panthers Facebook page
Basically there are some good people out there who want to do something and take it forward by building somewhere, now the season is over it's a case of sitting down and seeing where it goes from here
