Peterborough Panthers 2018


Recommended Posts

Ok smart alec premier league

 

Bigger crowds due to more local meetings with Kings Lynn and Leicester in particular would help

Would the above local derbies be enough to compensate for higher wage bill and would the likes of Swindon , Poole , Somerset and Belle Vue for example on a Monday or Thursday evening bring with them enough fans to make it viable . I would love to see Panthers back in the top division of British speedway, but being realistic my feelings are it's far too much of a gamble unless someone out there is prepared to back them with big money and be prepared to maybe suffer heavy losses.

i think that E.L.speedway(premier) will kill Peterbprough speedway off . championship speedway is way better I.M.O.

 

Since we left the EL in 2013 we've been nearly off killed as many times in 4 years as a decade or more of EL speedway so it's not quite that simple.

 

I suspect that the decision has already been made anyway and more of the same will be confirmed over the weekend, so the "which league" discussion can be knocked on the head for 2018.

We could have Jack Holder back if we raced on a Friday night.

 

If Holder's anywhere near the place in 2018 then we'd have lost the plot completely as you can know.

 

If the big league goes one or two nights then it'd be interesting to see whether the EoES would be accommodating? I suspect not and that they're are happy for us to fit around whatever dates they offer. Frost couldn't buy regular Friday's so the current promotion are unlikely to be able to. It'll be much of the same and that will not in any way be compatible with Holder.

Danny King 8.87

Todd Kurtz 5.39

Paul Starke 6.67

Ulrich Ostergaard 6.78

Rory Schlein 8.58

Simon Lambert 4.24

Jack Parkinson-Blackburn 2.00

 

42.53 - minus reductions for British riders, I'd take that team around the EOES.

Schlein? If I wanted to watch whining & tantrums I'd stay at home with my two year old.

I bet you would! Looks a cracker. I’d go better though and use Hume at 7.

 

That would be lovely, but can't see Ippo releasing King/Rory and Hume :lol:

Prefer Rory to Holder, atleast Rory is actually committed to Britain.
