Peterborough Panthers 2017


Recommended Posts

As an Eastbourne fan I watched on Facebook a video of Jake Knight at Birmingham the other day off 15 metres after two laps he passed Mattie Bates Darryl ritchings and made tom bacon look like he was standing still I wouldn't be surprised if bacon was dropped for Knight - quality rider on a 2pt avg

We gave him a chance last season and he was well off the pace , I can't see Panthers going down that route again whilst Tom Bacon is making signs of improvement , and maybe Jake Knight looks good around Eastbourne in the National league but there is a world of difference as opposed to riding at Peterborough in the Championship. Good luck to Jake in finding a Championship team but I don't think it is likely at Peterborough.

Must agree that Ulrich's average is pathetic, especially when you consider he has had the luxury of riding at 4 most of the season.

The least I would expect from him would be to at least hold his 7.14 average from the end of last season but there needs to be, big signs of improvement to get anywhere near that, so far this season he's been a major disappointment .

sorry I'm struggling to see how his average is pathetic when comparing it to other 2nd strings in the league? He isn't the heat leader he used to be but can still pop in a match winning performance and a 2nd string with a near 7.5 home average will do me fine thanks.

Knight would probably beat Ostergaard and Lambert 😂😂

comedy gold....

He signed as a second heatleader, he's now the weakest second string and one place of the reserve spot! He's been pretty pathetic home and away, I can remember 1 or 2 good meetings, other than that, his flymo engines are back, no power, and just getting picked off for fun.

 

Yes he wont be putting a point on his average, but should be maintaining the average at worse!
