Panthers89 Posted August 6, 2017 Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 We haven't got a prayer but for 20 quid and over double the amount of heats we see for 15 quid, has to be done. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted August 6, 2017 Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 It is a beautiful day, panthers stand no chance, it is important to all the other teams if not ours, why not still come, enjoy the day, meet up with old friends you perhaps only meet at the fours, relax and watch some hopefully exciting speedway,I am still going.No doubt Panthers fans will get plenty of stick today.Be kind though it is not of our making! No reason for the Panthers fan's to get any stick, Panthers promotion however now that's a different story. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted August 6, 2017 Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 We haven't got a prayer but for 20 quid and over double the amount of heats we see for 15 quid, has to be done.Ironically with the various goings on and pull outs my Witches team should have a better chance. As for my £20 it doesnt matter to me about the number of heats etc as a result of the staging promoters attitude to the meeting I wont be there  Out of principle as you say it 'has to be done' 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crump99 Posted August 6, 2017 Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 (edited) Our group from Ipswich will not be there despite original plans to (good news for Crump99 you get to eat your wine gums today ) When the staging promotion doesnt consider the meeting important enough for his own riders to compete in then personally I dont consider it important enough to spend my money on I was never going anyway so just looking at the PR disaster from the outside 😲Â I'll save them until next time, if there is a next time!

maneacat Posted August 6, 2017 Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 Not contradicting myself in the slightest, we all have a career to make a living and earn money so going to where the more money is furthering his career. Also in this case he is riding in arguably the best league in the world instead of the championship so it's a better level as well. You are correct noodles in most situations your employer wouldn't be happy but in this case he has his employers blessing so no problem there, what I'm saying is don't blame Jack we would all do the same as him if given the opportunity, blame the employer for not sticking to his guns IMO Unbelievable - try thinking outside of the box for a few seconds? Do you seriously think his employer had any choice? Â There are two sides to every story is something I have always lived by - and the truth lies somewhere in between!

Gavan Posted August 6, 2017 Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 Going for Sheffield and Scunthorpe from event one with Workington next best  Event 2 i would like to think my boys Ipswich can get through. Would then have said Glasgow but no Worrall is a loss. So Redcar to get through  And at the risk of not jinxing Ipswich, Redcar to win the whole thing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadders Posted August 6, 2017 Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 Richie Worrall has pulled out. Crashed in Poland yesterday. Dan Bewley moves up from reserve. He's riding apparently. Glasgow unchanged Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maneacat Posted August 6, 2017 Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 How anyone can defend Holder and Peterborough over this is beyond me. His duty lies first and foremost to his GB club in one of the most important meetings of the season in front of their own supporters. Anyone who thinks differently is just being argumentative for the sake of it I am a Panthers fan of many years and I would like to say I 100% agree with every word.

SharpenRake Posted August 6, 2017 Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 Compare Holder to nick morris. Nick had committed to the 4s despite the fact that his Polish team was riding. When he was told Berwick were out of the 4s he contacted his Polish team and told them he was now available to ride. Nick recognised his duty to represent his UK club, holder didn't. We need more riders like nick, holder should get a ban and Rathbone should also be fined or at least forfeit his share of any profit from the event He's riding apparently. Glasgow unchanged Someone should tell Stuart dickson and the official Tigers Facebook page cos they have him as not riding 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboy cookie returns? Posted August 6, 2017 Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 Its just another nail in the coffin of UK speedway. I've been a supporter for 28 years all be it a very part time one for the last few years mind.......and over the last 25 years I would say I have just seen the sport become nothing more than a joke & its like watching a very slow painful death. The first 3 or 4 seasons 89-92 were in the main good years I think. Bring back the old style 1980's NL & Mr Stewksbury to run it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
