Sadly, she died a few weeks ago, so the Blue Badge had to be handed back to the authorities. But as I'm now very lonely, I thought I will still have some evenings at Peterborough, and did so yesterday. However, I'm 78-years old. Diabetic which has resulted in me being in severe pain in walking in my legs & feet, not to mention unsteady, and I'm asthmatic, which leaves me out of puff, so with much regret, I will have to discontinue my visits. The walk from the car park to the grandstand, is about a hundred steps or more to much for me now, and I realise that I'm probably not the only one like that. So I wish the Panthers all the best for the 2022 season, apart from when you race against King's Lynn..LOL. Enjoy watching the racing on one of the best circuits in the country, and just wish that I could be there from time to time. Good Luck to you all. Sorry to hear about your wife. I know that things have been tough for a while now. On the subject of a BB, if you can evidence those conditions and negotiate the online application (perhaps Citizens Advice could help) then you can apply for your own BB because the qualifying criteria was extended recently to include hidden disabilities for those people who fall outside of automatic badge qualification. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone has to be the weakest number 1, doesn't mean MPT is a bad rider. But considering 3 number ones are GP riders & Masters & Pickering (when Iversen leaves) have higher aves in both leagues - who else do you consider to be the weakest?

Well MPT may not be number one for Peterborough at the end of the season as the top 5 all have very similar averages which is how the team is built but I would say when Iversen goes Kings Lynn may have the weakest or wolves. Peterborough's number one is always going to have the lowest average because of the competition within the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think the two clubs with the weakest top riders Lynn & Peterborough will both make the play-offs.

TTT Posted March 30, 2022 Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 Wouldn't worry about tonight's score. Riders just use these meetings to try out different set ups / equipment. Basically a football friendly where football managers don't really care about the result and they just use the match to try out different players / formations.

Most champion sides are lucky to keep 3/4 of previous year! I think you are worrying too much atm. Who knows who is going to be on form and who isn't.

Expectation is always higher when your team wins something , but the real 2022 Panthers team includes Harris & Basso as well they labelled this as "challenge of the champions" then weakened the real Peterborough team and strenghtened the Poole team, We may crash and burn this season but the 6 who have returned deserved to be included in 2022 for there efforts in 2021 Edited March 30, 2022 by scoobydoo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
