hans fan Posted May 25, 2017 Report Share Posted May 25, 2017 We had Cook, Thomsen and Bjerre all on the wage bill at the same time last season. None of those would be cheap. we had cook because he wasn't doing enough meetings and wanted a prem place so i'd GUESS he wasn't in a position to demand big money considering nobody else could fit him in , thomsen only done a handful of meetings , and by all accounts bjerre wasn't that dear and was doing ged &co a favour People on here claim to think they know everything when really they know nothing. You don't know who we can sign and who we can't just like anyone else. panthers crowds have been decent (best since Sullivan took over as team manager) so i'd doubt money would be a issue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappy Posted May 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2017 So the current excuse is that the money has dried up because they purchased Ready power out? That doesn't explain why we keep going down the same route with team selection. Crowds are well up but that'll soon drop if they're not careful.

Baldyman Posted May 25, 2017 Report Share Posted May 25, 2017 ..correctamundo...we need to be challenging for something..who wants to go to a meeting when there is nothing to ride for? Thats the difference between a speedway fan and a glory hunter. I think whilst racing on a Sunday it will be hard to attract the top riders as most race in Poland. So that may only leave a few, that's then when money and stuff comes into it. What's Alex Davies like at the showground? He doesn't have a team spot anywhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lukas Posted May 25, 2017 Report Share Posted May 25, 2017 So with an underperforming team we have Glasgow and Edinburgh away and then our best 2 riders missing for Monday against a strong Workington team, Johnson thinks things will just change.wish I had his optimism. http://www.peterboroughtoday.co.uk/sport/speedway/panthers/panthers-will-bounce-back-says-team-boss-johnson-1-7977029 15 max for Harris at kings Lynn last night..get him and Waicnecht in for Ulrich and another..keep Bacon as he is showing signs of improvement.

need for speedway 87 Posted May 25, 2017 Report Share Posted May 25, 2017 So with an underperforming team we have Glasgow and Edinburgh away and then our best 2 riders missing for Monday against a strong Workington team, Johnson thinks things will just change.wish I had his optimism. http://www.peterboroughtoday.co.uk/sport/speedway/panthers/panthers-will-bounce-back-says-team-boss-johnson-1-7977029 15 max for Harris at kings Lynn last night..get him and Waicnecht in for Ulrich and another..keep Bacon as he is showing signs of improvement. A lot of optimism there! He said will be bringing in guests id love to see who they will be? Why can't panthers get good guest riders, every other team can have pick of the bunch where as we can't? Why is that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northyorksbear Posted May 25, 2017 Report Share Posted May 25, 2017 ..keep Bacon as he is showing signs of improvement. I think Bacon will be a victim of others under achieving, which potentially is a big mistake, on the couple of occasions I have seen him recently he looks to have good equipment, a steady style and most importantly a far better rider than at beginning of the season. He is on the up and if he does get the chop (thank ruff Diamond), some other team is going to reap the rewards and get an uncut gem which may just sparkle!! Might literally turn into a full Diamond!
