The trolls in this thread are incredibly boring. This should be a thread to discuss the Panthers 2019 side. I'll get us back to topic. I for one would like to see Edward Kennett in the side, on his current average, he would be a bargain! Kennett, Nicholls, Palm Toft, Wilson-Dean, Lambert, Bacon and one other would be my side.

Maybe Scunthorpe's riders would have benefitted from guesting last night, they appear to be very rusty.

Injuries have cost the Panthers, it's still been a successful season with the incredible victory at the Fours and more importantly, healthy crowds.

That was on Sunday. There were over a hundred Panthers supporters, we had our own entrance. I can show you my train ticket if you want evidence of my journey, I'm not a liar.

Why isn't Covatti guesting? He looked on the pace on Sunday.

We should continue with Sunday racing, it's the only sustainable way to continue. Sunday afternoons attract the general public and families, looking for something to do on the weekend. Weekday evenings are not good. Would like to see as many of the existing team as possible. Maybe with the exception of Ulrich who would maybe benefit from a move elsewhere.

And who developed Jack Holder? It was the Panthers management that turned him into a Polish League superstar. Before he joined the Panthers, he was a flaky 7 point 2nd tier rider.

Oh dear. What an awful side. Panthers have been robbed through injuries and bad luck. Lakeside's incompetence on Sunday has meant the Panthers now have a weaker team. We should be riding under protest.

I appreciate that. But it's not a sprint, it's a marathon.

Announce Worrall, Garrity and Howarth.

Meeting was abandoned, before the boys got dialled in.

I've worked out the three best possible guests for the Panthers. Steve Worrall, Jason Garrity and Kyle Howarth. All three are track specialists around Rye House, they will ensure a Panthers win.

I'm fairly certain he isn't. He's not in any declared 1-7. A shame as Kennett would have been ideal. He should be allowed to guest, a British rider out of work is not good for British Speedway.

Why would the Showground landlords give Lakeside Hammers, free lights?

No chance. Say hello to Steve Worrall & Jason Garrity.

Worrall and Garrity fit for Nicholls and Palm Toft. Barker (is he fit?) in for Ulrich. Worrall, Grondal, Barker, Garrity, Lambert and Wilkinson. That would be my side. I am not up to date with the rules but would there be anything stopping the Panthers using Broc Nicol as a replacement for Tom Bacon?

Steve Worrall should be a nailed on certainty for Nicholls. He rides Rye House very well.

That's why I used the term special dispensation. Very unfair on Panthers who are being punished for so many injuries.

Important factor in this meeting. Panthers riders will have the right set up from Heat 1. They will just carry over the bike changes from last night. Hope we book some decent guests for Wednesday. Will we get special dispensation to use Wells and Harris?

Are you forgetting Ged's comments about bike changes?

Ordinarily, I would say that the result was a foregone conclusion looking at the first 7 heats. But, Ged's comments about bike changes completely turn the context of this tie upside down. We could have ended up with a golden heat decider.

Sorry to hear about your train problems. I didn't actually go through London. My journey was Peterborough to Stevenage, Stevenage to Hertford North, Hertford East to Rye House.

Interesting to note that Ged said that the team had made major bike changes, would have been very interesting to see the conclusion of this meeting.
