Flappy Posted January 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 (edited) It stinks, however Harris was on an over inflated average which he wasn't going fulfil and the reality is he can be replaced. Hope he gets fixed up at Ipswich quick Or has someone better become available........... Edited January 18, 2019 by Flappy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they've only just realised that now? After Harris signed a contract and was announced? After the whole team was announced? Something stinks about this, the reasons given don't add up at all. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rider - Chris was signed and probably had offers elsewhere but chose Ged and the Panthers. 2. The Club - what a shambles, a winter of positives for the first time in years now ruined. Why sign the rider? 3. The replacement - will know he’s the cheap option 4: The replacement 2 - will know panthers are desperate and could hold the club to ransom Wonder how many fans who have brought season tickets will be questioning that now! Thought about buying Season ticket but have held back to wait and see how things panned out , thank goodness I did , As for the 100 club I wont rejoining it . After this latest piece of news a haven't got the will to waste my money anymore and certainly not to aid anything Buster is involved in.

I always thought the Panthers team looked very good, and expensive...To expensive for a team coming up a league who can't be sure how the crowds will go. If Boro and Ippo had the same budget, i'm not surprised at the re shuffle. Although not fair on Bomber as well as the fans. Why was he signed to begin with..... Feel sorry for the Panthers fans, but you still have Cook and Hans, and maybe Tungate, and with your reserves still make you strong. I hope Harris gets a team place asap. We have Kasper at Lynn on a 4.00, who averaged 2.55 last season for Lynn , so wouldn't really want Bomber on a high average as well. The mind boggles...

screm Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 What I dont understand is what Peterborough have found out now that they didn't know when putting their team together. If their figures on averages didn't add up then surely they would've known by now, if they were over budget they should've seen that long ago. No matter what the rights and the wrongs are you have to feel for Chris Harris who is completely innocent in all of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocketrod Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 You’d think the head of bspa who owns the team would know the correct averages. How long ago was the team announced ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm disappointed. I just hope whoever Panthers get will be an entertainer.......personally I'd rather see someone slide off (as long as they're ok) trying to swoop around the outside than settle for a safe second (naive maybe but then I guess I can be).......... I wonder if the whole 2.5% reduction was misunderstood, and therefore Panthers didn't fit the points limits..... but rather than come out and slag off the ruling body, Buster has bit his tongue and reshuffled his three teams....... what average is Tai on ?

SteveLyric2 Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 Where is Neil Watson when the fans need more explanation?! Lets hope Bomber is not lost to the sport as he said when Rye House folded that he needed 2 clubs to make things pay - or he would quit!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arch Stanton Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 18 minutes ago, BluPanther said: This has Chapmans hands all over it, flexing his 'muscles' now the sale is completed ... Was my initial thoughts as well. Both Louis and Ged are on record as saying is was “business as usual” although obviously not as before, and they were building the team. Perhaps they were given a rough estimate of available funds and built the teams accordingly. Now that a sale has been completed, buster has decided it’s too expensive? The other possibility, is buster has a responsibility to all three clubs he’s now in charge of, and he can see that Ipswich are struggling to get in a heatleader? There is one available (Tungate), but for reasons I won’t go in to on here that is a move that won’t happen. So his plan is to move Bomber out of one of his clubs and move him to another, and then move Tungate to Peterborough where he’d be more welcome.. Only speculating of course, but I wouldn’t be surprised at either scenario. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil The Ace Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 Surely tungate will now be on his way. Or maybe bellego Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cambpanther Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 So is buster the 100% owner now? Dosent add up as ged stated on radio a while back saying buster gave ged a budget for the team and the team was put together within budget and approved by buster..
