Hodgy Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 (edited) I agree. If TS & GR have put some money in, why not make it public? Nothing to hide means nothing to fear! And it would be a positive sign for those fans who are a little dubious about making any sort of financial contribution themselves. Again I agree. Like I said above: nothing to hide means nothing to fear. How much have you donated? Edited November 18, 2014 by Hodgy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudflaps Posted November 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 Any update from Ged or Trevor about whats happening? What was said at the AGM etc? nowt more to add other than the below I'd Imagine @ last Sunday Peterborough Panthers: Peterborough has been granted a 14-day extension to put forward their intention to run in the Premier League in 2015. The Panthers have suffered a heavily in the last few seasons but the BSPA has granted them extra time to declare their place in 2015.

Saw that, but would be nice to know how far we are short, what was said at the AGM, like most other promoters have spoke about already.

A bit like we have for fund raising for a new village hall... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAST Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 Saw that, but would be nice to know how far we are short, what was said at the AGM, like most other promoters have spoke about already. Peterborough were not allowed to stay at the AGM, left after first day so not involved in discussions or voting for 2015 - so not much they could tell us.

Tsunami Posted November 18, 2014 Report Share Posted November 18, 2014 (edited) if you were that successful why 'd you stop then ???? and why aren't you one now As I've no idea who you are I'll take your word for it although self praise really is no recommendation; bcd and myself are both successful on planet earth, have you ever visited? If you're that successful then you could phone Trevor & Ged while you're here, you're promoting skills will be invaluable for our last push towards survival. It may have missed your attention Riggers, but it is Peterborough cash that Ged and Trevor need. Some of you lot on here already think you have the necessary promoting skills with your constant advice in that direction, rather than that commodity that they really need at this moment, some money. One wonders why if you were so successful your no longer doing the job? Wonder no more BigCat and Hans. After opening Newcastle up I'm 1997, signing up a few GP standard Danes, Winning the PL and joint winners the year after, and launching and running the Gems team, one felt it was time to get on with other personal interests in my life. There are other things in my life, like my personal sports and travel, but to continue would have Riggers claiming more self praise, and one would not want to make his day. Get giving.

What they need is cash, it matters not where it comes from. As Mick Bratley said: "It has always concerned me that an inordinately high percentage of season ticket holders never had a Peterborough post code" I don't know if that's changed but it suggests that a wider net is needed although I'd imagine that in your eyes that if you haven't put into this specific exercise then keep quiet is what you're saying, no matter how many years you've attended and put into the coffers at the EoES? Just checked my posts on this (first page anyway) and can't see too much in the way of advice, Haven't even demanded to know how much Ged & Trevor are putting in because that doesn't bother me. Someone's got to do the work and organising. One person's keyboard promoter is just another's fan with an opinion as stevebrum would say! (the opinion bit) As it's the season of goodwill and all of that, and you've had an unhealthy interest in Peterborough affairs for sometime now, you could put in for all three of us from your misers hoard. In fact you do remind me of Private James Frazer. Pray God you don't actually get to say "We're Doomed! Apologies for continually replying. I have you on ignore but you post so much guff that you invariably get quoted and it's impossible avoid your posts To be fair though "After opening Newcastle up in 1997, signing up a few GP standard Danes, Winning the PL and joint winners the year after, and launching and running the Gems team" if true, is an impressive list of second teir success. Would have thought that the new upcoming Sky Elite League would have been the ideal platform for your talents before bailing out?

Tsunami Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) You should have added ... "and trolling on internet forums on threads that are of no concern to me!" Commenting and debating on any subject on the forum doesn't constitute trolling, Look up the meaning in the dictionary. Keeping speedway running at Peterborough, should be a concern for all speedway fans, if nothing but to keep it open for the big meetings that everyone enjoys ever year. Keeping it open, of course, is now in the hands of the Peterborough fans themselves. Help it or lose it. I heard he packed in speedway promoting in order to take up a course on interpersonal communication skills. Judging by the standard of his posting on this forum I would suggest he failed the exams miserably. Judging by the standard of yours, I obviously wasn't the bottom mark. Anyway, time to get back in your locker. What they need is cash, it matters not where it comes from. As Mick Bratley said: "It has always concerned me that an inordinately high percentage of season ticket holders never had a Peterborough post code" I don't know if that's changed but it suggests that a wider net is needed although I'd imagine that in your eyes that if you haven't put into this specific exercise then keep quiet is what you're saying, no matter how many years you've attended and put into the coffers at the EoES?

Would have thought that the new upcoming Sky Elite League would have been the ideal platform for your talents before bailing out? You disappoint me Riggers. Having me on ignore means you miss out on what you would like to rubbish. I just hope someone tells you I have replied, but, as you say, 'it's impossible to avoid my posts'. Advice comes in many bundles, but I must admit your biggest contribution is your pursuit of EL racing. Perhaps you should rethink it, and accept that no speedway means no speedway, but PL speedway means it could be possible to switch at another date. Seems sense doesn't it. Must thank you for your praise in the last para. In terms of me and SKY Elite League, it started the same year that Newcastle opened, so just missed the boat. Noted the use of the word 'doomed'. Well, if everyone had your and a few of your friends outlook, Peterborough Speedway would be doomed. As it is, there are others that have a different persona, and I do hope they get what they have paid to see, PL racing at the The Showground in 2015. Best of luck to Trevor and Ged, for being prepared to put their necks on the block, and especially the Peterborough fans who do kindly donate and keep it open. I presume where you say "joint winners", you mean 2002... but I distinctly recall Sheffield winning the league that season It's a moot point. We had most wins and would won it these days. After Exeter and Sheffield won on aggregate points the rules were changed because of their massive home track advantage. But you are right. Must give mention though to the massive and timely assistance that the Berwick team gave to Sheffield on the Saturday before our last away meeting with Stoke.
