Gazc Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) Would of expected Thomsen to be at Glasgow but I think he rides in Poland which may stop him riding for either Glasgow or Peterboro Anders will i assume be offered a return to his parent club really depend's on the ££££££ he is offered to make it worth his while .

maneacat Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 Would of expected Thomsen to be at Glasgow but I think he rides in Poland which may stop him riding for either Glasgow or Peterboro I would happily give up Sunday race meetings at home to accommodate him in our team in 2016 so he can race in Poland. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep i would agree with that the boy is going far but on his average i would hope we see him back at Glasgow next season it is a no brainer.

scoobydoo Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 Yes but how would you stop him then signing for Glasgow with there financial clout only way ask Rick for a loan? or prey he prefers the wide open spaces of the showground, one good sign is hes changing his travel plans for thursday to ride at Sheffield In truth still think he would end up at Glasgow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he races in Poland as we all expect would Glasgow be willing to change race day to accommodate him? - I don't see that as a problem at Peterborough as it's never been our traditional race day - I would actually prefer if it wasn't in future regardless of who we sign and I know I am not the only Panthers fan of this opinion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As i said would really depend on the money offered to make it worthwhile for him to return to Glasgow but it is all hypothetical at the moment.

2ndbendbeerhut Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 But why are the riders missing when it's 'play off week'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) It's not week is it..... its play off '2 months' as the Quarter finals for Glasgow vs Plymouth, is first week in October.

2ndbendbeerhut Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) Looks like it's on the bspa site so going ahead on the 17th..... any team news? Where the "missing 3"? For once looks like EL have got the play offs right. Edited September 15, 2015 by 2ndbendbeerhut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semion Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 Robert Lambert surely would make a good guest for Ostergarrd. He should know the quickest way around The Showground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2ndbendbeerhut Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 Glasgow on the 4th is 3 weeks away! Doesn't leave much time for semi finals and then finals.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
em1500uk Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 Barker won't be back next year I doubt. I'm sure he's already stated that he would like to go back to Berwick. PETERBOROUGH have been forced to launch their Premier League play-off challenge against their will.Promoter Ged Rathbone has described the decision to insist a quarter-final first leg clash at Sheffield goes ahead on Thursday as a ‘kick in the teeth for our team, our supporters and the sport as a whole’.The Readypower Panthers refused to agree to race on that date due to having three riders – Ben Barker, Anders Thomsen and Emil Grondal – unavailable ahead of major weekend meetings in the Czech Republic.But, after long discussions involving rival promoter Damien Bates and the British Speedway Promoters’ Association (BSPA), Rathbone has been told his team must appear at Owlerton.Rathbone said: “To say I’m furious is an understatement. I thought it took the agreement of two promoters for a meeting to be staged, but in this case we have been dictated to.“We have worked morning, noon and night since stepping in to keep the club going last October only to be hit with such a ridiculous situation.“We’ve spoken to the Sheffield promoter by telephone and email on numerous occasions, but he simply will not budge."Even members of the BSPA Management Committee sympathise with our predicament, but there is nothing they can do as no rule is in place to cover a situation like this."The thing which has really incensed me is that the other quarter-final between Plymouth and Glasgow has not even been arranged as yet - and, from the information I have, may not take place until October."However, Peterborough have received a huge boost with World Under 21 finalists Thomsen and Grondal, and Barker, who is due to compete in the prestigious Golden Helmet meeting, all vowing to represent their club in the battle for honours.Rathbone added: “The guys have all agreed to change their plans ahead of major weekend meetings to be at Sheffield."We have pulled out all the stops at great expense to the club to ensure we have the strongest possible team, but unfortunately we cannot change the fact we will be missing supporters due to the short notice at which this meeting has been arranged.“All we can do now is approach the meeting in a professional manner and with the full intention of getting a result.“Our riders will need no motivating on Thursday and I think it is safe to say that our team-talk has already been written for us.“Let’s just hope the game being played by Sheffield backfires.”Peterborough have earmarked September 25 and 27 as possible dates to stage the second leg at the East of England Showground. That's taken from the club website... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2ndbendbeerhut Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 (edited) So the missing 3 aren't missing then. ...? The promotion were only thinking about the vast amount of travelling fans! Edited September 15, 2015 by 2ndbendbeerhut 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proud panther Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 Don't think Thomsen will ride in the Premier League next season. Would be a very good top 5 signing for an Elite League team next year if they use his converted average. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydoo Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 Robert Lambert surely would make a good guest for Ostergarrd. He should know the quickest way around The Showground.

Would be a very good top 5 signing for an Elite League team next year if they use his converted average. But then its finding riders to fill the gap with the points limit? 3.41 his average in the Elite League, meaning 30.59 for remaining 4 riders, can you find 4 heatleaders to ride for you?

maneacat Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 As i said would really depend on the money offered to make it worthwhile for him to return to Glasgow but it is all hypothetical at the moment. I agree money is usually the main consideration but my question to you was "In your opinion do you think Glasgow speedway club would be willing to change race day to accommodate Thomsen in the team"?

Gazc Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 No I don't think we would crowd levels are on the rise substantially and wouldn't risk losing what has been attracted by changing race day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
proud panther Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 Can see your point Panthers 89, but with a few fast track riders looking to move up, there must be a chance of the points limit being lowered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
