Not sure but that perhaps goes for most teams. Hmmmm. Is that the same Rye House that was above Poole when they closed? And had they kept going with Chris Harris, where would Poole have finished in the league? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is irrelevant where Poole would have finished, to me this looks the team to beat all riders have plenty of experience, they all ride the showground well and I don't think any of them fear any of the away tracks either.

Harris and Hans maybe but then you have Cook , Wilson Dean, Wright and Bjerre so no comparison at all. Rye House and the dads army were above Poole when they folded......Poole then took another ‘dad’ in Harris which helped them win the league.

Stiltonpanther Posted December 21, 2018 Report Share Posted December 21, 2018 It really does not matter what any other team says about the Panthers side as I have not heard a single complaint from our fans. Firstly I am a fan of speedway and whether we win the league or not does not matter but would be the icing on the cake. What I do know is that I am looking forward to being entertained with this team so bring it on. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Panthers fans will have plenty of entertainment in 2019 and think sides will have difficulty picking up points at yours. May surprise some away and with strength throughout the side think they will be hopefully well placed to pinch points away. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My sentiments exactly it does not matter what opposing fans think , nothing is won on paper anyway, there's a few miles to cover before it is decided who the top four to go in the play offs are and fortune and misfortune will play a part for all teams along the way, but with the assembled team we have it should provide top class entertainment . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I see is an ageing Chris Harris on a ridiculously high average. I also see a Hans Andersen who is nearing the end of his career. I see in Cook a rider that is just your average Joe, he will do what Craig does with little improvement in that average. The same with Wright. Just a run of the mill rider. In Barker they have a rider who is also at the end of his career and is nothing like the rider he once was. In Lasse, potential improvement. In BWD, a huge potential. Im not saying Peterborough are a poor team, far from it, and in a 7 team league they will be in a play off conversation. What I’m saying is that so far, imo, Wolves/Belle Vue/Swindon are all better teams with much more scope to improve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

szkocjasid Posted December 21, 2018 Report Share Posted December 21, 2018 Gotta say, I feel Peterborough look one of the strongest teams so far! 3 decent heat leaders & both reserves will be potent (whichever 2 they are)! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
