Dad's Army strike again 

Looked iffy at one  point but pulled through in the end , Pedersen had a bad one so did Masters , Palin seems to need a good ride in ht2 to set him up for the rest of the meeting  , whose next to go to reserve in september

Likely to still be Hans 0.37 between him and Harris who's next in the averages

Morris whining about Hans in Heat 15 slowing the race down and locking up the bike.

Wouldn't shock me if Peterborough pick Wolves. 

And potentially face Belle Vue in the final? I think Rob Lyon is far too wise to go down that route. If (and it's still a big if) Peterborough finish top I would expect them, as mentioned earlier, to take Sheffield and hope Wolves remove the Aces.

Think it will come down to who’s at reserve andersen at reserve I’d pick wolves… harris at reserve I’d pick belle vue or Sheffield

What a cracking match, the racing was top draw, both teams deserve credit for a hard fought match but Panthers produced the goods when it mattered

I doubt Wolves will pick Panthers in the semis if they finish top. It will be an interesting end to the season.

Fair point well made. But I'd be astonished (some horrible spate of injuries aside) if Peterborough pick Belle Vue, should the choice fall to them.

Should be a good meeting. Providing that Danny rides well then Iwill go for a 49-41 win for the Panthers.

Not a bad guess. Another good meeting in front of a large crowd. Thought heat 15 was excellent team riding from Hans to block Morris and allow Bomber to go round the outside. It was important to stop Wolves getting a point tonight if we are to go on and top the league. Well done Panthers.

Team riding : Some of the present riders just dont know the meaning of this , Flappy was saying Morris was whinging about Hans and yet they ride in the same Leicester team

If every track in the country was as good as Peterborough then speedway wouldn't be in the mess its in now and crowds would increase ten fold. Always produces excellent racing on a track with no home advantage. Tonight was no exception with so many racing lines. Riders must be in dream land!

Nicked from updates 

 

Interesting comments from Buster over the Mike.

In a nutshell: I meant everything I said but both clubs will continue. Everyone at Peterborough is wonderful, wish I could say the same about King's Lynn!

I’m sure if the teams were switched and the Panthers were where Lynn are it might be different Buster:unsure:

Not for the first time at Peterborough this season  Wolves heat leaders cost them at least a point. Second strings and reserves did their job but were let down by the

senior riders. Tactical blunder by Adams not putting Douglas in Heat 14, yes I know Flint had done really well winning his third ride but the pressure was on. Anderson was in for 

Palin, Douglas more likely to score points against Nicholls and Anderson. 

Morris poor in Heat 15 to let the lead slip with a lap and a half to go. Just when you needed your heat leader to do his job.
