You have good reserves, but they where not doing it tonight. They should be scoring big at home. Bjerre  and Baker are your main problem. Out of position or not, they are better than they are showing.  On paper (averages) the Panthers should of won this. Buster can't ride the bikes.. For Lynn tonight Lambo, Riss and TJ scored 10 between them!! Not Buster's fault either..

I said to my mate beforehand that someone said that we had better reserves but they clearly hadn't seen Jake Allen at the EoES or BWD trying to make a gate. 2 & 3 is bit more than out of position and doesn't factor in the knock on to the balance of the team generally. That result's been coming and wasn't too difficult to predict, averages/paper or anything else you want to justify it with. Chapman can't ride the bikes that's true but he can put a side together which clearly isn't good enough which is why Rathbone came up with something totally different.

edit - if as a Panthers fan I became a Lynn fan I think that it would be great to be in a stadium with all my relations at the same time :D

Would you of been happy if Cook was in the team?. He could of been if wasn't the only one of 21 riders not agreeing to the sponsors on the kevlars. Not Busters fault.. And it's not Cook being loyal to his sponsors, because he said if Buster would put his money up he would would drop the sponsor and ride. The bloke (Buster) can't win:blink:

All I know is that this was our named team and everyone seemed happy at that point:

PANTHERS 2019 (Team subject to normal BSPA approval): Chris Harris, Hans Andersen (c), Craig Cook, Bradley Wilson-Dean, Charles Wright, Lasse Bjerre, Ben Barker.

Who let that be named and then broken up?

The big mistake was not sorting out the Cook thing earlier which resulted in a team that was 3 pts under the limit, and then not addressed before the new averages came into effect on May 1st. As things stand this is a wooden spoon team i'm afraid...

So you would of been happy if Cook was in the team. All he had to do was to do what the other 20 riders did. You can't make exceptions for 1 man out of 21.

You must agree ??

I agree that buster was right what he done with cook and the reason  Harris went to Ipswich can't agree with what rider he replaced cook with tho . If he can  afford to take a big financial hit persevering with panthers current 7 he must have big pockets 1 more meeting like tonight crowds will be 500

He's trying for the sake of to speedway in the UK. If he fails you can have someone else give it a go. Ged who sold a rider to Poland for ££. Not thinking of the fans or the other 6 riders Seems that most have forgotten that one. I hope Buster does sell, because Lynn are suffering for it..

All Panthers fans want Chapman to sell the club we don't want him at Peterborough full stop. As for Lynn suffering through Chapman buying Peterborough well that's not the fault of Panthers  fans I suggest you have a word with Chapman and point out you views to him , i'm  sure you'll get a polite answer.

You are not understanding my comment. Cook or no Cook, the team should never have been 3 points under the limit on May 1st ...

The Panthers septet is a disgrace, losing at home to what looked like the worst team to ever be in the top flight when it was announced. With the possible exception of the Cheetahs septet that destroyed racing at Cowley. I feel for the fans. Their may as well be 4 leagues.

Wolves, Aces, Robins & Scoundrels.

Busters middle muckers. 

Championship.

National.

I hope Buster sells. I don't care if we have to run in the NL to survive. Get that w**ker as far away from the Showground as possible. That w**ker has slapped everyone in the face.

W**ker to Kenneth Bjerre 'You're no longer a Heat Leader in the UK'

W**ker telling lies to the Peterborough fans about the Chris Harris situation

W**ker taking the p*ss when trying to find a replacement for Cook. Even f**king Ed Kennett turned down the p*ss poor contract offered to him.

W**ker signs Aaron Summers on a permanent basis whilst running a team 3 points under the limit. 

Whilst you might have valid points, they would be more impressive without the bad language.

A lot of rival fans wrote us off at the start of the season as wooden spoon winners, but Ipswich have a solid team and will surprise a few more teams yet this season. Undefeated at home, travelling away from home we should have won a couple more and definitely the best reserves in the league, shame Ritchie doesn’t know how to utilise them better. The four points should’ve been wrapped up long before heat 15 but he hasn’t a clue.

Feel for the Peterborough fans as the track is now a one line follow the leader. Yes it’s fast but no outside line, a bit like Kings Lynn.

But if the other two clubs are getting around 3000 or so between them I would imagine he wouldn't be too unhappy...

With three clubs to run, circa 3600 each week in total at all three would be around 'average' for British Speedway I would think..

If two of the three are 'successful' in so much that they are play off possibilities then that would probably offset the worst one, and with only seven teams at least two of them shouldn't ever be too far away from the top four to render the season over too soon..

And of course plenty of local derbies, whereby even if just one of three teams are in play off contention, their home crowds will be reasonable and they may go away in greater numbers to their local rivals than they would if riding against a team further afield..

Running all three as a collective makes perfect sense...

Within that there will be winners and losers..

I suppose which side of that situation you are on will go a long way to determine what you think of him..
