TTT

Peterborough and Wolves won't be coming to tapes in 2024 as things stand so where does our great sport go from here? Vast majority of Championship clubs don't have the financial resources to compete in one big league and there isn't enough riders to go around knowing how many D/UP. Can't run a 5 team Premiership either so that's out of the question, A couple of the Championship's bigger clubs are hesitant to move up for various reasons ranging from local derbies to race nights. British Speedway is looking bleaker than it's ever been before and it's a sad / worrying time for supporters of all clubs because even the secure clubs need opposition to race against in order to keep them on track.

Sorry to hear the new guys. I did say on the Peterborough thread the other day that you will follow us so this doesn't shock me at all, The whole sport in our country is going to collapse within the next two years.

WTF was that ride from Lindgren lol. Was only interested in trying to ruin Madsen's race.

Lidsey will score a bucket load on a track that Aussie's love, Bewley may feel a bit fatigued though considering he's a busy lad today with two meetings and a helicopter ride. Panthers to nick a win if MPT can score 7+ with Worrall scoring at 6+. Panthers 46 - 44 BV.

Could go out on a high note after all. Narrow defeats without a No.1 so imagine what we could do with a No.1

Very true. Huge respect to Richie for saying what everyone's actually thinking but like you said the Danes will have to keep quiet if they want in on the WC.

Same thoughts here.

Richie's won me over after the interview he gave about Nicki.

Nope, Was always going to get a bucket full tonight around Leicester.

Exactly.

Get a No.1 in then we might be able to clinch the bonus point off Leicester now.

Ipswich don't have time which is the problem because Emil's average is going to sky rocket. So a massive decision has to be made on Rew beforehand as to whether Keynan is worth risking on the 5.00 average.

Big call to make on Rew I think. 5.00 assessed average and you're only getting 3/4 point returns out of him, Craig Cook is available on a lower average.

Never seen so many R's and EF's in one meeting. What's going on with both teams at Leicester?

Evens for the night, I'll take that as it could've been worse. Some funny results tonight, Leicester in a slog fest, Ipswich never in it at Home and KK with a 15 point max.

From 0 to hero. Best and worst of KK shown within 3 meetings lol.

Chalk up another one for Cook in Ht 11

Reality check for the Witches tonight.

KK doing KK things. Such an enigma, Could go from 0 to 15 in the space of 1 meeting lol.

IPSWICH vs. BELLE VUE Nothing stands out to me, Ipswich riders are marked too high for my liking. KING'S LYNN vs. WOLVES Three bets for me in this one because I think the King's Lynn riders will be different gravy at Home. Bet 1 is NICOLAI KLINDT Over 8 @ 5/6........Bet 2 is JOSH PICKERING 0 vs. Ryan Douglas @ 1/1...........Bet 3 is MICHAEL PALM TOFT +1 vs. Scott Nicholls @ 10/11 LEICESTER vs. PETERBOROUGH Keeping it simple in this one.....LEICESTER -12 @ 8/11, Peterborough shouldn't be putting up 39+ against this Leicester side without a No.1. BET TO AVOID imo is NKI Under 13 @ 8/11....Looks great on paper but this is a trap bet imo because he's going to have 6 maybe even 7 rides tonight.

No point praying for rain anymore because our season is over anyway. Leicester to win this one comfortably, Richie Worrall to top score for the Panthers but he won't receive much backup imo. Leicester by 16+

Panthers fans including myself will still get an opportunity to watch Speedway without having to travel far so it's not like we're going to miss out entirely unless it's by choice. Ipswich, King's Lynn and Leicester are all close enough tracks that you can get to in 1-2 hours top whack by car even though our track is much more enjoyable, However it's still a track to visit and it's better than nothing and who knows over time some Panthers fans may end up supporting one of those clubs down the road, You've seen it with Swindon fans at Oxford as a recent example. Sad news yesterday but I think it's only the beginning of the end for the Sport in this country as a whole, Championship is already drastically weaker with the watered down fixture list and points limit due to clubs lacking financial resources, Wolves aren't in a healthy financial position anymore and they could very well be on the clock too as CVS has stated that he wouldn't run in a 6 team Premiership. I suppose the blow of yesterday's news isn't as impactful as it would've been under normal circumstances, The fighting amongst management during the winter, The dreadful 2022 campaign and a mess of a 2023 campaign has left many fans thinking F it anyway because all we've done for the last 18 months is lose our tempers and then sat back and watched our team lose at Home almost every week, We haven't even had a full Panthers 1-7 complete a meeting in god knows how long. I'm surprised we're making the effort to see out the season tbh, We may as well just give everyone a refund and call it quits now rather than running at a loss every week, I'll nip down to the final home meeting as well as the Ipswich meeting when Doyle and Emil are in town but that's it because I've lost all interest in our 2023 campaign as it's just a case of deja vu that's a waste of everyone's time, effort and money.

Chris Holder liked the tweet as well lol.

Buster and Tomalin for the entire off season.

Agree and I wouldn't bother splashing out 3-5k a night on a replacement either if I was in Busters shoes knowing the clubs going under within a few months.
