..and what if a rider in the remaining 6 gets injured?..r/r is a risk for 1 meeting let alone the 8 plus meetings roynan will miss. Ellis is a good shout but Rathbone seems to have his head screwed on and I trust he will do the right thing which is not bringing Hall or Phillips in.

Yeah and some would say he's just to brave..he certainly is not a poor rider. Anyway I wonder who is available to replace him?..it would be foolish to run with r/r as we found out last season.

I've heard that royno has got broken ribs and a bruised lung.. Very painful but I think most panthers fans would take that over what we thought had happened..get well soon and well done to the rest of the boys..in particular Rambo lambo senior.

So this is what the big announcement was then!..good start to the season..roll on the spring.

Omg..slight overeaction guys..probably from people who didn't even put any money in.

That completes a very good and pro English panthers team..very happy!...surely that's not the big announcement though looking at the wording of Ged's announcement about the announcement.

Dont know how true but I heard that Jacobs had been lined up for the last spot but then he quit due to lack of finance.

I would hardly call the elite league "senior"these days.. Think that was proved last year when look at the likes of blackbirds average in both..does anyone know how many fixture clashes there will be where we are missing riders or are they not out yet?

Id be happy with either TBH..Happy with team so far however Just abit concerned we will have 2 poor reserves...which we should have learnt from last year.

Bjerre, THJ, MJJ, North, Bech..have you ever raved about anyone whos not foreign?...anyway what we got left to play with once Olly signs?

I've heard Blackbird will be back...also a couple more who I'd like to chuck in the mix who I wouldn't mind seeing back here is mat tressariou and Claus vissing.

I agree with your positive comments fully but im just being realistic...I mean who's gonna buy one at that price when we dont know admission prices, or team,there is no incentive to get one and im afraid It may give them a false impression of interest...That is my last mention of the subject..promise.

Great news to have Ulrich back! On seasonticketgate, considering at the big meeting they were considering making it £10 entry..I would have thought it would have been a good idea to go halfway and use this entry price in the season tickets by making them around £200 and then charging £15 on the gate for the paying public..Would have thought that would have worked a treat in terms of guaging interest, and keeping up the income..Im not moaning or being negative..just thought it would be a good idea with Xmas coming up and knowing Ged and Trev read this. I dont think they will get a big response at £300 as we dont know what the team is, people are short of cash with xmas coming up and it doesnt give you any incentive for your commitment.

Can't find any details of them season tickets..any idea of how much an adult ticket is for the season and what it includes anyone?

I'd like to say a big thank you to Ged n Trev for helping to keep our club stay alive. I'll pledge my support further by getting a season ticket..if they get the details out before xmas they can cash in on that while the feelgood factor is there and let's hope we got a good team to support..I'd like to see it built around fish,Ulrich and blackie.

If its realy that cut and dry why not offer 250 tickets for the first match at £20 each now? because there are definately 250 die hards who would pay it including myself.

Doubt it when we don't even know if we're running yet!

I cannot believe all the rubbish written on here regarding who has put in what..at the end of the day they are trying to save our club and I don't see no one else stepping in so why all this rubbish?..why not show some support and be positive?..what will you moan about if you have no club to moan about?

I would say to Ged not to get too disheartened because as always it's only the minority that are moaning..everyone who I know has full support of what thwy are doing.

I disagree, didnt think he sounded disheartened at all..I think he sounded positive...and I realy cant see after all this that we wont be running.

Like I've said before..if its announced we are racing then I'm sure lots more money would come in.

Great input..would you prefer they didnt bother then?

So when will we find out if we are still running then?..surely they must know by now with 3days until the AGM.

The thing is once we know we are racing on and what the team is then that's when we are gonna see the funds rolling in...for instance I will pay £300 for a season ticket which I've never done..to do my bit..and the same will be for sponsorship.I think £20000 will come in easy when we know what the score is which should see us OK right?..so I think Ged and trev will have to take a calculated risk banking that once that risk has been taken that the funds will roll in. Let's just declare and get a decent commercial manager onboard(mb) and see where it takes us. But I think team building will be paramount this year because let's be honest who wants to see mid table mediocracy and not ambition. To get the ball rolling how about a showcase signing at no1 to get media interest like when we signed Niki pedersen because you have to speculate to acumilate right....though to be honest I'd be happy with fish,Ulrich and blackie.
