  1. I see on Edinburgh Monarchs website that they have asked their fans to send objections, "to help our friends from Peterborough fight the planning" They can do it but Chapman can't. Says it all
  2. All the PCC councillors should have been invited last Thursday or tonight or against Lynn whenever it's raced
  3. I have missed seeing who this chap Butterfield is. What does he do and who for
  4. They're scared to say anything in case the lights are turned off. That's what was said on Thursday. Ridiculous
  5. He's got a twin brother. But your suggestion isn't even slightly amusing
  6. Yes, but even then it was always football first. But that is the same all over with speedway picking up what little scraps from the media they can.
  7. The local Peterborough Telegraph, as usual, hardly bothers to put anything about speedway. All they are interested in is the football club. Panthers couldn't even get on the front page on the day the story broke. Instead it was all about a drunken ex player (granted what he did was absolutely terrible) but there wasn't even a small sub heading. You could only read about Panthers dire situation if you went through ten pages of Peterborough United first And that has been par for the course since Panthers inception. Always an afterthought in the Telegraph. Even Thornton today (one of the so-called news and sport editors) admitted that he had never been to Alwalton. Says it all I wonder what will happen if Peterborough Utd go into administration. The staff at the Telegraph will be running about like scalded cats
  8. I think Hans has never fully recovered from that awful crash at NSS in the play-offs. He should have retired then, as a crash like that with the head taking all of it must take a couple of years to get over. I'm no doctor, but was told this by an ex-rider who had the same problems. He has been a fantastic servant to all his clubs and it is not easy to see him riding like he is
  9. How does a re-arranged Polish league match have precedence
  10. Don't forget they finished top of the league as well
  11. Among all the stupid comments you make, to suggest in a round about way, that Rob Lyon is not as good as Swales is incomprehensible (if you know what it means),. Swales should never be in charge at Alwalton again. I dread to think how he would have handled rider replacement last season. You have the best team manager there is and it's ridiculous to suggest otherwise.
  12. The grandstand has 2230 seats
  13. I haven't been able to open the referees scorecard on any match. It could be me, but I think it's rubbish at the moment. If anyone has managed to open the scorecard please let me know how, on my lap top
  14. Probably no-one wants to re-sign until it is clear what the advert in the Peterborough Telegraph today means. An auction on November 19th of all the East of England Agricultural Society effects due to the sale of the Peterborough Showground.
  15. I don't need a new calculator, just a new brain. I realised that the speeds were excessive afterwards but it was too late to alter the post. It was a senior moment, and I shan't say what I did wrong, but I did get the speeds as you have rightly stated when re-calculating. My apologies
  16. Yes, I seem to remember something about that in 1969-70. But working out the lengths of the tracks against the track records Alwalton must be the fastest nowadays.
  17. Is Peterborough the fastest track in the country. Working on track records of Belle Vue, Sheffield and Peterborough which appear to be the three fastest tracks, the respective speeds are Alwalton 68.3 mph, National Speedway Stadium 67.4 mph, and Owlerton 65.8 mph. I can't remember what Exeter's record finished but I believe that was the fastest of all. Are there any others that I don't know of.
  18. Thanks very much. Don't know what's gone wrong at the Speedway Star offices
  19. And also the first leg please. Seems the Speedway Star has stopped putting race times
  20. All they showed on TV was his crash and then him walking away, albeit a bit gingerly, so how do you know
  21. Why Don't want him like he doesn't want British speedway. Best interest of the sport if he stays away for good
