As good as Lambert was tonight, I actually thought Worrall was the star of the show.

 

He was tremendous from the back. Thought he was going from 4th to 1st on the last lap of heat 15! He's made such progress the last 4 years.

they were both excellent to watch

Just goes to show what happens with a high scoring reserve. Thanks James.

erm... BW-D outscored Shanes 9-8.

 

And Bacon v Coles was 2-0. So Panthers' reserves out-scored Newcastle's reserves 11-8.

 

That wasn't "what happened" in terms of how the meeting panned out.

He's meaning in terms of the Newcastle team in general as Phillips and Coles have struggled to get 3/4 between them away from home. Shanes scored some points from reserve and they win.

Oh no. How sad. They will need a lot of buckets. I pledge £10 to this worthwhile cause.

Realistically can anyone really see this panthers side beating any of Sheffield, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Newcastle or Ipswich over 2 legs?

 

We in my opinion are in the second tier of teams in this league this year.

 

As for the racing, yes it's always decent at the showground.but where's the home track advantage gone? Teams used to hate coming to Peterborough to face a team full of showground specialists on a deep and grippy track, now they love it.

there has only been 1 load of guff at Foxhall this year......

 

(Ive never disputed the general quality of racing at the showground btw - it has to have something going for it to balance up the rest)😛

Exactly. You can have good racing which you do but lose or slightly less good racing and win. Most would pick the second option I would think

 

 

And as a witches fan we get used to not so great racing. And still haven't won anything for years🤔

Best racing Ive seen at the showground! Unfortunately we were beaten by the better team! Bacon actually won a heat think every was shocked!

 

Rider of the night for me was Stevie Worrall! Top class performance by an ever improving rider!

Newcastle were the better team tonight, R Lambert and Worrall were both outstanding and the Panthers top end apart from Starke couldn't live with them.

 

The track wasn't great and was certainly slicker than usual but being honest it produced some fantastic racing and this was one of the best meetings so far this year.

 

Another great crowd as well.

Racing was out of this world tonight, especially the last 4 heats, unbelievable overtaking lap after lap. If I had my way, I would award the Panthers 3pts for providing such great entertainment

points for artistic impression are only awarded in silly sports like sycronised swimming and ski jumping.....
