spin king Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 For club going into the meeting with a 2 point advantage going into the 2nd leg at home, you Peterborough lot don't half sound worried about this meeting. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Our last 4 home matches we've won 2 and lost 2 (albeit losing against decent opposition and not a ragbag outfit) so we need to keep everyone on their toes really to avoid any complacency or slip up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Yeah and who knows if Jason Garrity is missing we might have a hot shot Guest waiting to take his place. Â You lot really are worried aren't you and with you lot having the worse home record up to the run up to Play Off's I can see why you are say a little. Â Cautious. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 Â Given the size of the place, even though much reduced these days, it still shouldn't be too difficult, but organisation, cooperation and communication at the EoES aren't strong points these days. There are occasional exceptions of course but when you've been to speedway at the EoE Show, Expo Steam, with the Motorhome Show and the Bible bashers both in town etc, you'll appreciate what a widdle in the ocean a few doggies is. That's not a go at you but a reflection of how far speedway has fallen down the pecking order over the last decade or so. Scouts were the worst. Little sods running all over the place and not at all interested in the racing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wealdstone Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 (edited) I can assure Sheffield fans and management that the stories of wagon trains still being attacked by Red Indians on the way to to the Showground are greatly exaggerated so it is likely that you will get there unhindered. Neither are there armed guards at the pit gates. Edited September 25, 2015 by wealdstone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 Â PAINT THE TOWN RED (AND BLACK!) Â Friday September 25, 2015 Â PETERBOROUGH chiefs intend to create a carnival atmosphere for their biggest meeting of the season. Â The Readypower Panthers roar into Premier League play-offs quarter-final, second leg battle against Sheffield on Sunday (5pm). Â And promoter Ged Rathbone wants the East of England Showground to be turned into a sea of red and black for one of the biggest occasions in recent Peterborough history. Â Rathbone said: We have a great track, a terrific team and some of the best fans in the business. Â Together we can make it an occasion which will live long in the memories and hopefully lead to even bigger meetings in the coming weeks. Â I want as many people as possible to sport club colours of red and black to show that we are all one. Â The more flags and signs there are the merrier as well. The same goes for drums, trumpets and air horns. Â Anything that makes a noise or adds to the atmosphere is fine by me. Â And as an added incentive we will pick out the person who we feel has made the most effort to win a signed race-jacket. Ill even get Ulrich Ostergaard to be the judge . . . if his foot is up to it! Â And Rathbone has called on fans of other clubs in the area to flock to Alwalton for the second chapter in a bitter play-off battle. Â He added: It would be fantastic to see supporters of clubs such as Leicester, Coventry, Kings Lynn, Ipswich and Rye House at the Showground on Sunday. Â Were the only team in the area still in with a chance of picking up some silverware this season and we would greatly appreciate any additional backing. Â This is going to be a hell of a meeting for the neutral and great racing is almost guaranteed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MANSE Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 Carnival atmosphere its only a Quarter- Final . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crump99 Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 (edited) Carnival atmosphere its only a Quarter- Final . Â That was my initial thought. There are no prizes at this stage but progression and increasing difficulty. That's really a news item for a final so difficult to top that. However, as has been proved all season, Rathbone does his best to try and make it work so nobody can knock him for that. Ironically, if Panthers had done similar, hitting the right targets, in previous years then he, and we, would probably not be here now. Â "Anything that makes a noise or adds to the atmosphere is fine by me" - I'd just like to add that if you agree with that then you better sit in the cheap seats at the EoES or stand on the grass Edited September 25, 2015 by Crump99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheScotsman Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 Hopefully it would be a carnival atmosphere with a Peterborough v Glasgow final [agreed Scotsman ] Â A Sheffo v Devils final would be just unbelievable. I would pay virtual money to watch that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackadder Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 Jonas B Andersen is sometimes available to guest for you at very short notice. Â Looking like Jason Garrity will not be fit to ride for Sheffield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
