  1. Don't know but hope he doesn't get crucified at Ipswich.
  2. Paul Starke guests for Panthers Mason Campton is unavailable.
  3. BSPA and making sense are poles apart , they don't do sensible .
  4. please excuse me while I fall out of my chair laughing.
  5. I would call it a sickening approach and out of order.
  6. Shame on you for trying to make advances towards Sheffield supporters when things are not going right for there own team , no doubt you would like them to go out of business and think you will collect a large chunk of there supporters in the process.
  7. There has to be an underlying reason that Sheffield promotion are not willing to go into details. which might embarrass one or both parties.
  8. I would think Ostergaard is now just about fit and ready to resume racing apart from Bjerre's average too high. but I find it a very strange decision him getting sacked there must be some underlying reason for it.
  9. Lasse gets sacked at Sheffield and Kenneth got sacked earlier at Leicester . Same promoters involved , I wonder if there is a connection here. Other than that I can't see why they would want to sack one of there most consistant home riders . It just doesn't add up'
  10. If that's the best we can get as a guest who is the best part of 2 points below Ostergaard average wise then we better pray for lots of rain , always going to be difficult getting anything from Lakeside with a full team out so I would expect Panthers to get a spanking should the meeting go ahead.
  11. As you know there has been a lot of strange decisions going on this season in particular , so nothing surprises me what happens regarding the outcome when there are people at the BSPA who are using there authority to get results in there favour
  12. But no actual fixture tells me that Ipswich will not get priority , Jorgensen had a fixture clash when he signed for Redcar and he had to ride for Kings Lynn at Swindon but good luck with it anyway
  13. Yes you are correct his first name is Leigh I should have known that but at least I didn't spell it the Chinese way Lei. On the subject of Dave Gooderham when arrived at Peterborough everyone thought he was a top notch signing , although he looked a quality rider I don't think he did as well as people were expecting and I think this was mainly down to inferior equipment he was riding I know he had an insurance company sponsor him when he rode for Ipswich and I believe they did not wish to sponsor him at Peterborough , maybe they owned his bikes and in them days the then Panthers promoter the late Danny Dunton did very little with regards helping to get rider sponsorship deals and lost out on a few riders because of this, for instance Robbie Blackadder was on the cards to sign for Panthers only to be told when asked about transport no we will not be supplying a van you'll have to get your own.
  14. Sorry you don't like to hear the truth, but others that maybe new to the sport might be interested to know just what happened that night.
  15. The court case revolved around Lee Lanham who supposedly had retired midway through the meeting packed his bikes away and was ready to head home , not sure which heat was involved but 3 riders appeared on track and the only other rider that could have rode in that race was Lee Lanham , the pit gate was shut before the 2 minute time allowance was up believing that there would be no other rider involved, and the race was run with3 riders . Ipswich lost the tie but decided to make a case that they were denied the chance to bring out Lee Lanham in the particular race . Pure gamesmanship by John Louis and I will never forgive him for that. Great rider but his ethics as a promoter left a lot to be desired
  16. If I wanted to buy a comic I would buy the beano other than that other than that if Covatti has a problem with Ostergaard's riding he should keep it in house not go running to the press and Peterborough management are correct by not allowing Ostergaard to respond to the speedway soap magazine it's not the way to do things.
  17. Are you suggesting that Ostergaard made a deliberate attempt to cause harm to your rider, I don't think there are any riders that would purposely try to fence opposition riders , and quite frankly I find your accusation sick that riders would attempt to do this to one another. You have to face the facts that riders are there to race and incidents will occur from time to time, Nothing to do with being biased towards any riders or teams .
  18. Some Ipswich fans are still harping on about a racing incident between Ostergaard and Covatti that happened at the fours final 2/3 years back they actually think Ostergaard took Covatti out exiting the second bend deliberately and don't see it as a racing incident . Then they make silly statements like Covatti was able to get a decent score at the showground because Ostergaard wasn't fit to race. Only idiots would make those sort of suggestions unless they can prove malice was intended.
  19. I think you are quoting the wrong person here, i never suggested beerhut was wrong , I just stated a reason for the hold up that could and should be easily resolved
  20. On carpark grass area used there are two entrances one is unmanned thus a car was parked across it and two people were handing out tickets at one entrance only , surely it would have made sense to have one attendant at each entry.
  21. Agree the track was very slick , but top class riders don't miss the gate 5 out of 5 . It's not the first time this season it has been slick and it does spoil entertainment value hopefully the management will try to address this as it's no good having a team of racers and have very little shale to race on. Bradley Wilson Dean was also busting a gut and getting nowhere. Perhaps they should take some gating lessons off Tom Bacon .
