Peterborough V Workington 9/9


Recommended Posts

See Dilger frustrated the hell out of me, didn't score much, BUT he tried his damdest, and showed frustration, which is good too see, as some riders just show the who gives a toss attitude or pull some poxy wheelies.

 

It's still a shocking performance mind from both, but max has come up smelling like a turd, Barrett was off diarrhoea.

thanks for releasing joe and making your team weaker. loks like one sure way to save the panthers money, get shot of your best riders and lose points at home to teams you should not.. lets hope its not raining on sat and we can put the play offs into our fixture list.. .

We should of won this one if josh and rene had a got more points poor show from them good one Ricky , mason and joe need more from this team if we are going to do any good .

i agree here josh and rene combined scored the same as joe and ricky scored each for me rene bach has been a dispointment quite a lot this season and not just his scoring

its rene bach and workington comets whoever he rides with you see him whinging after the heat if they finish infront of him wont team ride with anyone hes lost workington a lot of points this year racing his so called team mates

but then he will pull out a masterclass and show what he is capable off

this workington team could win the playoffs but they will proberbly go out after first round

Lots of ifs, if Adam showed recent form at home, we would of won, if our reserves turned up, we would of got 3 points.

 

Fact is, you got a point, we got 2 points and you've taken lead in playoff race imo

and if our top 2 rode as the should and kyle was riding youd have got 0

If's, but's, maybe's..Bottom line is Panthers current team are nowhere near good enough to compete in the play offs so I'm not that dissapointed about tonight. But I am disapointed that the management made such a poor selection of signings which ruined our season.

At least we got something out of this match, only the one point but that could be the vital one?

 

Disappointing to see riders the calibre of Josh and Rene delivering such poor scores, a half decent performance from either and its 3pts, looking on updates its a score card that just smacks of the inconsistency the Comets have shown all season.

Finally get a return from Mason away from home, good efforts from Ricky and Joe but now Lambo goes off the boil a bit along with our top two, normally the other way round but just cant get it together at the same time, we wont win anything going round in circles like this!!

 

Could be touch and go for the last qualifiying place, Comets should be slight favourites but on this form we will just make up the numbers, not gelling as a team, too many hit and miss performers, mind you, strange things do happen in sport, plenty of lowly finishers have ended up as Champions in other sports and I've always said, you only need hang in there, perform for 6 matches and the title is yours? ;)

Like the meeting against Glasgow, this clash with Workington turned out to be another piece of top class entertainment.

 

Ulrich Ostergaard pulled off the most incredible moves at times, the likes of which I've never seen before.

 

I agree with the comments of Panther2006 regarding Ales Dryml, but also thought Adam Roynon was riding a tad over the top too. How lucky was Mason Campton to walk away from the Heat 9 incident, and come back out to win two races in fine style?

 

Josh Grajczonek should have done better than 5-points, but on the flip side of the coin, Simon Lambert would possibly have scored more had he visibly been not unwell, suffering with some flu like symptoms. But I guess Joe Jacobs more than made up for that.

 

If the curfew is 10.00pm, why was Heat 13 allowed to commence at 10.07pm, other than in a desperate attempt to get Peterborough all 3-points? A curfew is a curfew, and should be adhered to like it was last week against Plymouth.

 

Why also does the track have to be graded after every few races, and is a 20-minute (25-minutes last week) interval between meetings really needed, when a curfew is in place? Even allowing for the fence repairs, last nights second meeting could and should have reached its natural climax. The public pay to see riders racing, not tractors doing as many laps as the kevlar clad entertainers, after such a lengthy interval for track preparation.

 

Well done both teams anyway, you both deserved to get some points from the meeting, and you did.

I really don't see your logic here.

According to my watch heat 13 was called at pretty much 10 o'clock.

Panthers had virtually nothing to gain by running the race, being only 2 points up at the time - a 5-0 was so very improbable.

More probable was that they might suffer a heat loss resulting in a draw or home defeat.

So why would they have pushed to race it??????

 

Anyway back to the racing, it was a good close entertaining meeting.

The racing wasn't always close but Ostergaard is worth double the admission cost on his own.

His rides round the boards are as scary as hell!!

Angle the bike at 45 degrees and ride round the bottom of the fence!!!

8 wins in a row including the Glasgow match.

 

Dryml was also outstanding until his tangle with Campton in heat 9.

He did move over a little after a good gate from 3 but it was compounded by Roynon moving out a touch from 1, so Campton was the meat in a nasty sandwich.

He did extremely well to get off the back before the bike wrecked itself and the bouncy castle.

Thought he were going to get some handbags when Dryml went over to check on him but there were only words!

It certainly seemed to energise Campton who comfortably won the rerun and beat Bjerre in the following race, having only beaten Dilger in his previous two.

Dryml went the other way and after reeling off 3 straight wins by heat 8, he lost out to Compton and then to Jacobs.

 

Bjerre was a bit patchy losing to Wells and Campton before the good 5-1 with Ostergaard in heat 13.

 

Roynon wasn't great to be honest.

Part of a good 5-1 over Bach in heat 3 but only finished ahead of Jacobs apart from that.

I agree he does seem to be over-riding too much.

He might score more points and keep safer if he reined it in a bit.

 

Not much to say about the reserves - outscored 11 to 5.

Both tried hard but don't look likely to score enough, though Barrett did manage to keep Bach behind him in heat 12 to keep Panthers 2 point lead.

 

Fow Worky, Grajczonek & Bach disappointed. 9 points between them from 8 rides.

Wells was a threat when he gated but that was mainly in heat 1 against Bjerre.

Jacobs rode well and obviously had a point to prove.

He gated well throughout which was important when it slicked up (unless you were Ostergaard!!).

Lambert wasn't really a threat all evening.

 

I agree there was too much time wasted though there would have been time for all 15 had it not been for Campton's off.

 

 

Oh - r/r for Hall mustered 3 points (Dryml's win in heat 8) and for Howarth mustered 7+1!!

That doesnt make a lot of sense ..... as Panthers were 2 points to the good they could only loose out by running heat 13 as it happened they scored a 5 -1 it made no difference to the overall points allocation, any heat advantage to Workington would have reduced Panthers league points allocation!

 

Maybe they just wanted to give the paying public as amny races as possible :neutral:
