Paulco Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 Interesting meeting coming up tomorrow night . Panthers the only team to give us a doing , so we want to repay the compliment . We should be at full strength , assuming Aaron comes through his wee bit of overtime tonight unscathed . As for the Panthers , a fine win at Redcar last night keeps their faint play off hopes alive , but no Chris Harris tomorrow as he is away riding in some Mickey Mouse meeting in Poland I believe . Our old friend Ben Barker stands in and he looks back to his best this season . Dunno if Ostergaard is riding tomorrow , as he missed Redcar last night , but they will come here full of confidence . But it's more to do how we perform , and revenge for that blip we had down there should be enough of a spur to get us the three points and stay in touch with Edinburgh and Ipswich .

MD Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 Potentially the best meeting of the season coming up. PB are on the up, Barker is on form, Starke is always good value at Ashfield and Liam Carr looks to be turning the corner. The weak link looks to be Ostergaard who i would expect to be r/r which strengthens PB and BWD is almost a season on from where he was with Somerset last year, so what he gets is anyones guess. Bring it on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheScotsman Posted July 8, 2017 Report Share Posted July 8, 2017 Seems to be a lot of sickness amongst riders this season. Â Never known a season like it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I ask - and I'm not having a go for not going - but why do you feel the need to tell everyone you are not going? Not saying it will affect anybody else's thinking but it just adds a negative to the minds of people reading this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Very true , and since that was a Berwick fan that posted that statement , you would think he'd be watching his own side tonight anyway . It's , of course , very disappointing that any scheduled rider is missing , but it happens and there's enough good riders in the Peterborough side tonight to make it a test for us and make it an entertaining encounter . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying it will affect anybody else's thinking but it just adds a negative to the minds of people reading this.just pointing why I get put off such attractive meeting,it's a forum negitive comments are allowed .I certainly would not be put of by such comments.The sport is in decline and IMO these situations don't help it.Thats all.

BluPanther Posted July 8, 2017 Report Share Posted July 8, 2017 Seems like the old 'sickness bug' is in vogue these days. Either these riders are eating and/or drinking garbage, or its just the latest excuse in Speedway... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CookieIpswich Posted July 8, 2017 Report Share Posted July 8, 2017 I'm not a die hard ipswich supporter, I follow them and Leicester as my dad rode for both but would rather just see a good speedway meeting over any particular winner. Â A boro win keeps everyone on their toes re the play offs plus stops glasgow walking it even further 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
