craigACE Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 Peterborough are the weakest team at the moment. Some of it, Well quite a lot of it is down to bad luck. As for the rest, I know who i blame..... Big changes needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panther1997 Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 I see on the supporters group on facebook, Carl Johnson was asking people for suggestions for riders for guests and permanent. He’s words ‘Come on then everyone, name the 3 riders you would bring in ? Let’s see how much everyone knows’ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Criticism via social media (justified or otherwise) is a thing of the present and needs to be handled properly by those involved with the club namely by giving honest and frequent updates even if the say things like we have been looking at our options but there are no current riders available within our pay structure. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

semion Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 How much can you afford to lose per season once you have parted with the purchase price ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All4back Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 Reported in the PT that BWD's injury is not healing. Can we extend the naming of available riders from Facebook to this forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Scrutton Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 Perhaps someone should do a sky dive for the boy as Robert Lamberts mother is doing for Greg Hancocks wife Lets hope it is Blue/Black Panthers BUT without parachuts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been like that at times for at least 15 years at Peterborough. There has been some nasty stuff and management have often been justified in coming out fighting. Generally though it's lack of communication/explanation that causes the problems. Fans get upset and vent their anger and management get upset when in fact they could have nipped things in the bud much earlier with a version of events that people will believe and not the corporate line that usually doesn't stack up to other info out there.

My hatred for Buster Chapman has now gone through the roof. I honestly hope someone thumps him. Carl Johnson 'David Bellego was spoken too and was too expensive for us' That's right boys and girls it's the same David Bellego who Buster Chapman signed for Ipswich this season. Now all of a sudden when it come to Peterborough Speedway he's too expensive. I give up. No more trips to the Showground for me. The armchair will do. Not putting another penny in Busters pocket. Utterly disgraceful. Perhaps Barry has upped his price thinking that Boro are in a desparate position..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semion Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 Maybe the budgets at Ippo are different to those at Peterborough ? Bellego could be afforded at Foxhole but not at Alwarton. Could be based on crowd figures. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crump99 Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 6 minutes ago, BlackPanther said: Crystal clear to me. Buster doesn't want to spend a decent amount of money on Peterborough Speedway to try and turn around our poor run of form. He is more than happy to take punters money and serve up dross every week with a team that cant compete unless a new rider is prepared to ride for a ridiculously low wage. Gates are only going to get worse unless Buster spends money. He doesn't want to spend therefore the gate will not improve and tbh some punters will never return whilst he's in charge. Even as a not particularly happy Panthers fan, we get the message and it is getting a little tiresome. Yes it's a forum and you're entitled to your opinion but could you change the record. If not while Chapman is there then just sit tight and see what happens because I doubt that you'll change anything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyTanker Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 So does he like Buster or not? It's easy fella, whilst Buster is there don't go, when he sells, if he sells, then start going again. Peterborough clearly doesn't make enough money for Buster to keep shelling out top dollar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wealdstone Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 Not going is not the answer , Buster will have no compunctions in closing down Peterborough if the money does not work out . If he does with no buyer we will not see the Panthers on track again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway just so you know I only joined because of Buster purchasing Peterborough Speedway. Needed to give my view on the situation. Been ranting about it ever since. Really ? I hadn’t noticed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
