Sheffield Tigers V Peterborough Panthers - 17/9/15 Play Off Q/f Leg 1


Recommended Posts

Just had this really weird dream where sheffield were 12 up after 3 heats and then lost... Fair play to Peterbarker on a deserved win, we had too many passengers.

 

At the beginning of the meeting I commented that I was surprised by Barker's average and that he was a much better rider than it suggested, unfortunately I was right!

The are questioning the illness of Thomsen and guest appearance of Anderson

So if Sheffield are implying Thomsen was nt ill, he must have been witholding his services, and Panthers can use a facility for that ie Anderson.

Congratulations to the Panthers, did a job on us and fair play.

 

 

Some from my group of Sheffield fans reckoned the track was set up to suit, but to be fair I don't think it was entirely that to blame, I think overall in the meeting we did not perform to the best of our ability and Peterborough did.

 

There was apparently and argument between the two Promotions before the start of the meeting, but I suppose that is to be expected.

 

Have my own views on Mr Rathbone and his Promotional team but will keep them to myself.

 

As for Sheffield the fact that we even made the Play Offs this season was an achievement after all that has gone off, with injuries and deportation's, and we will be back bigger and stronger next season mark my words.

 

Good Luck to Peterborough in the next round.

Got to say well done Peterborough they wanted it more and it showed massively!! I love Garrity think he has been awesome for us this year but we needed a Steady, Kurtz, Cook tonight. Barker was fired up and we needed that No.1 to stop him!! Hats off to him though never missed a gate and was gone by 2nd bend.. I had a feeling this new look Sheffield side wasn't strong enough!! Should have kept the Guest at No1 which probably would have been Danny King and Josh @ reserve.. Disappointed yes but onwards and upwards.

 

Unlikely to progress any further this year but.... who knows!!

 

If not enjoyed this year even though the ridiculous injuries we've had. Hope to see Steady back and good as ever next season. He is without doubt the master of Owlerton.

It's only half time and at the EoES we turn into the worst gaters you've ever seen. We have also lost 4 home league matches. If we think the job is done then Sheffield are perfectly capable of turning us over.

If the Sicknote was obtained under false pretences, then a Facility would not be permitted.

The reason for the discussion between officials before the meeting was because Peterborough had not thought to inform the Referee or the MC earlier in the day of the programme change. Sheffield wanted to lodge a protest, but were advised they couldn't go against a Doctor's Sicknote. Peterborough threatened to withdraw for some reason, but were threatened with a fine if they did so, so didn't.

When Ty Proctor was deported, the UKVI insisted on seeing a copy of his departure documentation, so it should be reasonably easy for the SCB to request copies of Mr Thomsen's original travel details, the cancellation documents and his revised details, if they so choose.

Anyway, congratulations to Ben Barker for an immaculate 6 ride maximum, and to the Cheetahs on getting a result.
