Panthers 2013 Thread

why is it a stupid post? there isnt a lot of skill in riding peterborough just wind it on and occasionally go over the grass! thats why the poles are good round there fast bikes. stick them at lakeside or wolves and they are useless.

 

Perhaps stupid was the wrong word, probably simplistic would have been better. And grass tracking hasn't been a factor at the EoES for 10 years which suggest that you're in a time warp as well.

 

As for such home track advantage, I've never understood that. Joe Screen once called the Showground boring, just sitting there going round in a circle - doesn't sound like a recipe for home dominence does it? And that was before the track was widened considerably to make it fair for anyone with sufficient gonads. Panthers have dropped half a dozen or so points at home whereas Swindon who have a similar alleged home track advantage (as do all sides at the end of the day) have dropped 3 and also managed to win 7 away matches - slight inconsistency there don't you think?

 

Don't get too hung up on the Poles, we don't!

What an ignorant post.

 

At Kings;Lynn (342 Metres) 30/5/2012 :-

 

Second string Kim Nilsson scores 11+3 is Lakeside's second highest scorer and outscores entire KL side except NKI

Second string Stuart Robson scores 7+1 is Lakeside's joint third highest scorer and outscores all but two of the KL team.

Lakeside's reserves jointly score paid 10 KL reserves Jointly score paid 13.

 

Yeah, Lakeside's second strings and reserves sure are are worse than useless on a big track. Mind you KL is a properly prepared race track.

 

My word we really do have some bitter people at Peterboro.

No, I have never ever made a comment about Peterboro track on here. I have not seen the place for years so I am in no position to say.

 

It was Rob Lyon said it was cack, or, more precisely he said it was like a potato field.

All tracks take balls top ride.

If you have ever ridden you will know that.

 

Obviously idiot but Showground takes the biggest balls to ride.

He only said that cause his team got spanked.

But the track was crap, for the first half of the meeting anyway. Happy to concede that Rob went OTT on the mic though and that for the last 6 or 7 heats it was fine. Very poor early on though by EoES standards, and the first time in many years that I didn't feel that I got VFM there.

With the play-off's looking a major doubt, I am wondering what the Panthers fans would like to see in 2013?

 

I would love to see Kenneth back as on an average of 8.18, He is major value but a lot depends on his fitness levels, Linus will return but then I feel we need a major overhaul in order to improve our terrible away form.

 

As for Michael, Sadly I suspect he will be in the Grand Prix series and his commitments in Denmark,Poland and Sweden are neccesities due to finances and the fact that he is Danish so I can't see him making a return sadly.

 

I love Krzystof and Norbert but having both of them in the team means our away form ends up being terrible, If I had to pick 1 then I would pick Krzstof as he still has potential to improve while Norbert will struggle in the main body of the team.

 

With the influence of Jan Staechmann, I am hoping we can convince Mikkel B Jensen to join the Panthers and he would be a major coup.

 

1. Kenneth Bjerre

2. Craig Cook

3. Krzystof Buckowzski

4. Ryan Fisher

5. Linus Sundstrom

6. Richard Lawson

7. Mikkel B Jensen

 

That's a very strong spine off the team but the Number 2 is going to be a crucial spot as he will probably end up dropping to reserve and depending on the points limit and I am hoping it will be a young rider and somebody like Craig Cook would be perfect and I know Craig is a big Panthers fan as I remember he was in the Peterborough City centre as part of a Panthers promotional event.

 

Regarding the final team spot, I would like to see Richard Lawson in the side as I feel he can still improve on his low average.

 

What do you guys make of it fellow Panthers fans and what direction do you guys want to see the Team Building in 2013

With our dismal draw at home to Coventry on Monday, The Play-off dream has sadly died.

 

Regarding next season, After watching THJ battle through the pain on Monday morning when he could have quite easily withdrawn after his first 2 terrible rides, I would love to see him riding next season for the mighty Panthers as I feel he has it in him to wear the Panthers kevlars.

 

I would also like to see Nicki being brought back as I feel he has the drive and passion to succeed with the Panthers.

 

1. Nicki Pedersen

2. Tomas H Jonasson

3. Michael Jepsen Jensen

4. Linus Sundstrom

5. Ryan Sullivan

6. Mikkel Bech Jensen

7. Richard Lawson

 

Would love to see that team next year, It has title winners all over it.

 

Come on make your mind up
