Peterborough Panthers 2017


Flappy

Recommended Posts

Attendances have been dreadful on Tuesdays in the past and the management are naturally keen to avoid fixtures that end up costing them a fortune (understandably) which is why we avoid weekdays in general.

Available dates for Sundays, Fridays and Bank Holidays are very limited due to other events at the Showground with an increased fixture list this year not helping at all.

Doubling up clashes, overseas and world championships etc cause immense rescheduling problems as you will appreciate when involving 14 riders associated promoters and team managers.

 

I have recommended several times that the Premiership and Championship run on different race nights, it would end the doubling up problems overnight.

What evidence do you have that the BSPA listen to anyone.

None ,that's their trouble.

"Erm Hello Ged . Let me introduce myself .. I'm New era Panthers off the BSF - Dick Butler wanted me to come over and can you please explain to me a situation which you think could and should have been avoided."

I'm still 100% behind Ged and back him all the way, just because I disagree with a fixture clash of riders doesn't mean I've changed my opinion of him. Generally Ged has done an excellent job.[/quote

 

..I think that goes for all of us..the moans are only down to frustration because we haven't won a thing for 11 years and never get the team selection right..we still back him all the way and wouldn't want anyone else in charge..unless they are a millionaire of course and put us back in the prem with Nicki Pedersen as Captain👍😀

I'd agree, however the same mistakes keep being made with regards to team selections.

New era Panther your a bit clueless you just can't rearrange fixtures here there and everywhere. There are all the riders to consider not to mention the availability of the showground!!

I am well aware of those situations thank you and I don't think it is nice getting personal with one fellow Panther fan just because I disagree with running a home meeting which could have resulted with 3 team members missing.
