TAST Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 cheers for that Tel - his appearance was very low profile... Yes you are correct sorry - League Cup final! Thought the atmosphere was very poor - more like a wake than that of a speedway final.. ATB yes!! But there was a fair amount of optimism about 2015 down the steps separating Block C and Block D!! Think we will all be watching the forums closely (again!!) during the close season. Could not wait for end of year speeches - unfortunately had to be somewhere else quickly!!

TAST Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 I spotted Trevor with what appeared to be a tear in his eye - clapping his hands red raw !! Was there any explanation about the shenanigans with the air fence on bend 1 before the start of the meeting?? A very reliable source told me that all the spare panels had "walked" towards Coventry prior to the meeting!! Tel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScotsman Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Really? I must say I thought there looked to be fewer panels on turn 1 than usual but since I've never counted them I assumed I was imagining it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must say I thought there looked to be fewer panels on turn 1 than usual but since I've never counted them I assumed I was imagining it. Last time they had to take the end panel on turn 2 to replace a bust one a few panels in so it was shorter unless the bust panel was repaired which I doubt for one meeting.

proud panther Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Coventry have been using our air fence for a few weeks. How Horton has got the nerve to sit with the people he has screwed this season is beyond me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peterborough daz Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Heard a whisper that a bid has been made to the Frosts and is under consideration. The person in question wants to get Panthers back to the EL but not straight away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LagutaRacingFan Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 (edited) Fingers crossed Coventry win tonight so Horton can pay the riders the money he owes them from playoff earnings. Horton is a clown. Edited October 6, 2014 by Morrissey Fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobydoo Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Horton all smiles as Coventry into final in EL Heard a whisper that a bid has been made to the Frosts and is under consideration. The person in question wants to get Panthers back to the EL but not straight away. Perhaps Colin Horton is coming back as his brother has had two goes at screwing the Peterborough public over he wants a second go also !!!!!

How Horton has got the nerve to sit with the people he has screwed this season is beyond me. How has Horton screwed the fans?,my understanding is that without him there would have been no speedway at Peterborough this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LagutaRacingFan Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Wouldn't be surprised if MJJ was putting together a consortium, I know he has a huge soft spot for the Panthers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proud panther Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Horton has screwed the fans by failing to pay the riders, resulting in us ending up with half a team. The riders brought in were all cheap options, & cost us a place in the play offs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The riders brought in were all cheap options, & cost us a place in the play offs. But if more fans were attending the Peterborough meetings then he would have more money coming in to pay them. The problem both last year before Horton took over and this year is that sadly there are not enough fans attending. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem both last year before Horton took over and this year is that sadly there are not enough fans attending. He knew that though before he took over once again after having the same issues before at Peterborough. This time he had things as he wanted with supposedly a return to the sustainable Premier League that some of the fans wanted. However, according to attendance figures quoted last week by Frost and Horton we seem to have lost 700 fans (which at one point, if my memory serves me right, was quoted as enough to make it break even) on average. For those that didn't attend in 2014, I can say that Tuesday wasn't the main factor if you want to come back with that old chestnut!

It's a pity they cannot ring fence the Speedway track and grandstand to make it available at weekends when other stuff is going on at the EOES - allowing us to ride Fridays or Sunday if PL and Thursday if EL... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
