Peterborough Panthers 2018

Options are limited as anything.... that's why! Who else realistically apart from Scotty maybe?

It all depends on which way they want to go big hitter with Smith at reserve meaning Lambert would have to be in top 5 or 2 middle of the road riders and keep Lambert at reserve with Grondal, which ever way they go it's a gamble. For me i'd go for a big hitter and get Smith in at reserve , question is who would be the big hitter, Nicholls I think would be favourite but if we fail to get him then where does that leave us , unless they have a hidden talent that nobody has thought about or didn't think would be available.

 

Think Flappy means both Ellis and Kennett, which they cant. Either or, I believe.

Sorry I stand corrected.

all I can remember is Newman never finishing a meeting around the EOES, always seemed to be walking away injured. Amazed he is still around the 6.00 mark, should be higher IMO.

Newman has found his level. People seem to think he's on a bargain average every year, maybe it's the Poole connection but he's a second string at this level, no more.

 

Looks like a long season for Peterborough. Can't see two riders coming in that'll change that.

think Kennett is getting more into grasstrack/longtrack now too so possibly Sunday clashes?

 

Wonder if the penny will ever drop?

Holder with the proviso that if Poland come calling he takes the 28 days and we get a facility. No permissions, advice or favours this time!

They've already said Holder isn't returning.

 

They say a lot of things before the reality of the situation becomes apparent. It's looking pretty grim at the moment so unless Rathbone is just about to pull a rabbit out of the hat then it would be remiss not to look at it again. Yes it may not be an option, yes some fans may not approve (and I would have been one of them) but I'm sure that they'd get over it.

Change of fixture days being listed as reason why 2 MDL teams cannot operate from P'Boro this year? Perhaps a mix of Fridays & Sundays is on the cards and Polish contracted riders will not be so much of an issue?

Hans & Nicholls have been heavily touted - but if you are right then Kenneth Bjerre may be more likely?
