Peterborough Panthers 2016


Recommended Posts

reading between the lines of the various statements i dont see that Simon did decline the Kings Lynn offer - he was announced after very much accepting it.

Only then when the fixture clashes were highlighted and it seems that certain sponsorship on the Pboro side of things was threatened did he change his mind.

I am great friends with Simons main sponsor and at no time did he threaten to pull out of his sponsorship.

Think it would of been sadly more beneficial to Peterborough if Simon Lambert had vacated his Panthers place not his Kings Lynn one, shows the sad state of speedway now with it looking like both Peterborough and Kings Lynn running teams under the limit .

How does that effect Kings Lynn being understrength, Simons average (PL) is 5.19 Wilkinson's 5.33 .

Didn't say it did , I said that it shows the state of speedway when teams have to run with below the limit teams , only used Lynn and Panthers as an example its looking like Leicester will also be below the limit.

Both leagues need restructuring regarding points limit , I did suggest this a while back and got loads of flack over it . BSPA need to look into it well before the end of 2016 season , so by the end of the season it leaves promoters in a position to plan well in advance and it would also be beneficial for sponsorships as well for 2017 season.

It would seem from this weeks Speedway Star that Ben Barker never had any intention of joining Panthers and according to him Money was never the issue. A complete contrast to what we had been led to believe.

That's a strange comment, we were led to believe he had secured a lucrative deal with Giasgow , a deal well above what Panthers could afford to offer. Now it seems he is on Kings Lynn's radar , if that's the case and he doubles up Lynn would get priority as I think Coventry own his contract. I wonder what Glasgow fans think about that.

Do you believe him though,I don't!

I think he's stuck two fingers up to Panthers the same as he done to Berwick last year , seems to be building up his notorious reputation, I know I'd rather believe what Jed has told us than anything that Barker has to say. (RED Indian quotation); White man speaks with fork tongue; I think that just about sums him up , just famous for burning his bridges when ever he passes over them.

Have to agree ,stood on centre green at the week before he joined Panthers and never mentioned that he was returning from injury never mind that he had spoke to Panthers and was as good as signed.I put him in the Lewis Bridger mould when comparing riders and attitude.
