proud panther Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 Don't think there is any chance of us returning to the Elite League next season. Would rather stay Premier League any way, because I never watched a decent meeting last year in the Elite. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crump99 Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 (edited) Read on another thread rumours of 4 PL moving up to EL could one be Peterborough maybe Matt Ford is attempting to get Rick to move the Panthers up and he may let Ged run the club using his assets NKI , KB , HA even MJJ Not unless there's a get out clause in the Poole sponsorship. Readypower Panthers and Readypower Pirates in one league doesn't sound right so we'd require a new team sponsor. Then the scenario is Panthers owner being the headline sponsor of his club's biggest rival. Sounds a dogs dinner. Perhaps Rick and Julie have a buyer for the club who want to make the upward move? That might work. Edited September 23, 2015 by Crump99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sings4Speedway Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 My suspected 4 would be Rye House, Sheffield, Glasgow & Newcastle into EL. Wolves to PL. Lakeside to ? Scnunthorpe & Recar to NL. Birminginham to PL. Could be a right old merry go round this winter or maybe im just cuckoo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobydoo Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 If sky want more teams to join the EL to replace the possible departures of Swindon and Lakeside then Peterborough could be approached as they have been there before and with Matt Fords influence with anything to do with the EL he just might try to persuade someone to run the club , have Peterborough got another year of Readypower sponsorship then ? if not then the sponsorship/help could come from allowing his assets to ride at Peterborough for no loan fees only a thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I suspect that most that currently go to the Showground would share your views. The Elite League supporters voted with their feet and just did not come anymore.

KIRKYLANE Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 Peterborough is a super race track and the standard of racing is not about which league you are in at such a good track. The World Team Cup a number of years back was the BEST meeting that I have seen in the last decade. Fabulous racing that day At the Fours this year, someone was saying that Peterborough have home advantage today. I rebuked them since the track is so good that there is not a home track advantage..... all that is required is a well prepared track and REAL racers on it.

Live in hope Rodders, live in hope Having said that, it's not too bad now given better presentation and only turning the roving mic on sparingly for relevant info that can be heard. The PL is like treading water though, you're not going anywhere. The EL is currently continuing pants with the PL being the better league atm, but will it stay that way, who knows? If they ever sort the EL out, in terms of size and quality, before it fully implodes, then it might once again be the place to be, however, under current rules and set up, it pains me to say that Panthers are probably in the best place?

I think the fact that Horton was the boss had a fair bit to do with it plus a race night that just didn't suit anyone. A competitive team racing on Fridays & Sunday afternoons has seen more than a few fans return and the management have also done a good job on getting the fans involved with the club & riders. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point about MH who was starting with a handicap, but nothing that couldn't have been done before really? Sundays were obviously a no go but we never had a competetive team until the latter half of 2013 and the club appeared to some extent to disengage from the majority of its fans (especially when they named the 2012 team) - they seriously needed a Rathbone onboard. Frost said crowds picked up when the team started to do well, pretty standard logic really, especially in Paterborough.

scoobydoo Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 Thats what was being said a couple of seasons ago about going to the PL but it happened if they could secure mostly friday fixtures get money out of sky in addition to the normal cash for making the numbers up , bring back some favourite riders with Ged heading the management team get Bratters involved , use Ricks generosity who knows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
