spanner47 Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 You P'boro fans have been saying how great your promoter is, if any other promoter had denied his own fans a chance of reaching the play offs (albeit a very small one), he would have been slated. Not having a full side to go to Edinburgh is sometimes an advantage, your current 1-7 would have been hammered, but you do what others do, get the right guests and give yourself a chance. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panthers89 Posted September 16, 2016 Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 (edited) Nothing worst than a gloating fan, yes you've won and had your moment and made the play offs, congratulations but going out your way to goad and wind someone else up, bit low tbh. Each to there own. Ged has a point why was it extended a week for some teams?

Lukas Posted September 16, 2016 Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 (edited) Why the hell is the cut off point so early anyway?..we start the season when it's snowing and end it when its tropical!..I know, how about moving it all forward a month?..no because that would be way to logical for the thicko's at the BSPA. Oh and Warning to Panthers fans..don't go on any Ipswich threads..popped on to the Ippo v Newcastle one yesterday and it's just pure weirdness.

Not stirring it, was just really surprised you accepted not getting into to play offs without riding your last meeting. I'm sure the Ippo fans would have giving CL all kinds of stick had it happened at Foxhall, not that it would have done, as CL cares about the club and isn't about to walk away, even though I'm sure he'd love to if someone came along with an offer.

lucifer sam Posted September 16, 2016 Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 (edited) I have to admit I'm mystified as to why Peterborough turned down a trip to Edinburgh tonight, especially given the guests that Somerset have found. The Panthers would have nothing to lose and everything to gain by riding tonight. All the best Rob Edited September 16, 2016 by lucifer sam 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pob Posted September 16, 2016 Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 Still can't understand why if the rumors are true Peterborough didn't take a team to Edinburgh tonight. Yes you would have been weakened but at least the fans would have seen that at least the club were giving it a go instead of not bothering surely that means something ? Strange things happen in speedway it only takes an EF here and a fall there and you never know , yes i'm glad Ipswich have made the play offs but if things were the other way round would not be happy . Getting in the play offs because some one can't finish all their meeting leaves a sour taste but you got to take every chance you can . Not good news when you hear speedway supporters fearing for their club's future . There are too many that have disappeared over the years . I hope its just smoke and your club is running next season enjoyed my visits to the showground great race track , and the same to any other club that's not sure about next year i hope you continue . 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each to there own. Ged has a point why was it extended a week for some teams? Surely we can have a week? http://peterboroughpanthers.co/news.php?extend.2941.2 Lets get it extended to the 25th then Newcastle can get their last match in and possibly overhaul Glasgow for 2nd Oh.............. but then Glasgow may ask for it to be extended so they can go to Edinburgh and possibly get back ahead of Newcastle!! Bottom line - it wasn't extended for "some" teams it was extended as most had been affected by bad weather, if it is extended to 26th it is specifically for one team so why should they be shown favouritism Edited September 16, 2016 by Mad Max 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maneacat Posted September 16, 2016 Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 To some extent I agree with your points Mad Max but what annoys me (and has done for many seasons now) is the cut off dates being so early in the PL when we have no Sky schedule to consider and the season does not end until 30th October. I realise some will point to weather problems as a possibility later into autumn but not any worse than March and some years a lot better. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realise some will point to weather problems as a possibility later into autumn but not any worse than March and some years a lot better. There are a number of other factors which all contribute towards the issue - you can argue that you leave cut off later but then you have potentially 3 matches to fit in, if clubs have restrictions on availability of stadium (as Edinburgh are stating) and they are due to play a club with same race night and possible restrictions you have two weeks taken up (more if rain off) you then have the rider availability problem which open up all avenues for discussions - I personally think we have gone way to far in allowing r/r & guest for riders hopping off to give priority elsewhere, but then what would it achieve by having a club with 3 of its own riders and 4 novices - just devaluing the public, so again dates have to fit in with when they can get a full team out (as per Peterborough and tonight). You can go on and on but is mid September really too early ?? Look back at all the weeks no fixture took place (probably because riders were elsewhere) and see how fixtures could have been completed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KEITH M Posted September 16, 2016 Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 With all the fuss over cut off dates here and cut off dates there why not just have this competition where at the end of 24 meetings each a league table appears and whoever finishes top are classed as the league champions 😀 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
