stevebrum Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 i said give them a run for their money not end up with a higher average <Abuse removed> No idea what abuse you added to the original response but it seems a fault setting for some. Just in case you had forgot you arent meant to attack the poster. <removed> Another Panthers fan using names in the derogatory. No surprise. I think its commendable that your in such good spirits and looking so forward to the new season. If I was supporting Wolves I don't think I would share your enthusiasm because Woffinden apart it looks complete pants. Remind me, were you one of the many that said we looked pants pre season last year as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The White Knight Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) But we have spent more time in the lower league than the Elite league , the Prem is where we belong , I had my best years watching Panthers in the old National league , norhthern tours etc , I won't miss the Elite league at all... I think he was saying , given them a run for there money , not beating them every time.. Tut, Tut , don't think averges mean alot imo... My goodness those were the days. Richard Greer, John Davis, Pete Saunders, Pete Seaton, Roy Carter, Ted Howgego, Brian Clark etc. :approve: Edited January 23, 2014 by The White Knight 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigcatdiary Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 Remind me, were you one of the many that said we looked pants pre season last year as well? Indeed I was, you surprised everyone last year as did Woffinden. Don't see it happening this year though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScotsman Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 Good looking team. Should be good to watch. I think I might make them my second team!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant say i`m that bothered that people write us off, so many made to look silly last season was all i needed amnyway! ANYHOW, back to the Panthers - looks like you have assembled a team more than capable of a top 6 place. I do worry about Dryml tho, he SHOULD clean up in the PL. I can see him struggling a little tho. I will look forward to my visits to watch some of the stars of the future in action at my 2ND favourite place to watch racing ;-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bagpuss Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 I don't think Dryml will clean up but he should prove to be a very reliable heat leader. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted January 23, 2014 Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 Dryml will up his ave IMO. 10 at home 7 away would be my guess - 8.5 overall. Decent signing and a very good team overall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irk Deflector Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 We are only 0.25 under points limitThank you. I'd taken the information from the 2014 Official Teams thread. Will do my own sums in future! Thought it strange to be so much under! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he was saying , given them a run for there money , not beating them every time.. Tut, Tut , don't think averges mean alot imo... And what do you base that on? I'd say that our track and facilities are Elite League standard and we belong more in that division than many of those who are in there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proud panther Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 In reality Crump 99, the crowd levels over the last few years are not good enough to sustain Elite League Speedway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And are you offering to underwrite the losses, after a multi Millionaire could not sustain those losses with the EL. Change your name to Trump instead of Crump. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a sad part of the sport and certainly for Peterborough. The Panthers as a circuit belongs in the EL. Without a sugar daddy to bank roll the club again it might be a while before it happens again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am well aware of the losses situation and the new factors, and what may or may not of happened at the AGM. What we really need to know is if Trump99 is going to fund the losses for EL racing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proud panther Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 Time to move on & enjoy our speedway at the EOES. Good luck to the riders & management for the new season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Brown Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 I always laugh when i see the words Ales Dryml and GP rider in the same sentence. All he can do is qualify and he of course has done this once and as 1st reserve for last season There are many so called better riders who have not achieved that................actually his qualification record is probably better than Harris, Nicholls and of course he went further in the qualification process for the 2013 series than the 2013 World Champion While I understand some of the views, I am pleased to see him back at a track where he will score a lot of points. They have mucked him about royally in the past few seasons 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
