Not much between Hans and Scotty. But after tonight, i'd probably keep Hans out of the 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring in Bjerre, Buczkowski and one other. You’d get rid of Hans after turning in a top performance at somewhere he doesn’t like…. Right makes sense, ulrich is the one that has too go, can’t see much of a different with jenkins/palin if I’m honest. Nicholls form is alarming admittedly but I’d suggest he’s possibly a few things going on outside of speedway that’s maybe having an effect 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplepanthernotred Posted May 30, 2022 Report Share Posted May 30, 2022 Ulrich has got too go now without a doubt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTT Posted May 30, 2022 Report Share Posted May 30, 2022 I thank Ulrich for everything he has done for our club and I'll never forget the good times but he's got to be the first one out of the door because it's not just the Premiership he's struggling in this season. Really struggling for Glasgow too and unfortunately he's taking up too many team building points. I'd stick with Ulrich if he was on a 5.00 average but 7+ is just too much. With Scotty getting a promotion in the GP's when it comes to his punditry work which he's very good at by the way, I genuinely think he's going to retire at the end of the season anyway. I can easily see Scotty Nicholls joining the Eurosport team next season as well as continuing his role with Discovery for the GP's. Jenkins the most pointless signing at Premiership level ever. We may as well give Danny Ford a ring and see if they can lend us Nathan Ablitt if that's the kind of silly changes we're going to do. Those are the three riders that I would change, Hans has begun to show some fighting spirit in his last couple of meetings with improved performances so I'd keep him. I was against @Flappy idea of Kildemand at first but I've now come around to it and I think he'll be an improvement on what we've got even though he does throw away points. I'd also look at former Panthers riders Krzysztof Buczkowski & Norbi Kosciuch. Yes Kosciuch isn't a big name rider but he knows the track well enough to do a job at Home in order to rack up a couple of Home wins for us.

His Prem average is 3.72 after tonight from 5 meetings. There can't be that much difference between the Leagues. Has his sharpness gone? Who knows, but it's not nice to see.

I think you are right slightly tho his sharpness maybe has dropped off but it is such a shame too see him ride how he is atm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet he's riding well for Oxford. I don't want to make light work of any personal problems but they don't seem to be having any effect in the lower league. I think it just highlights that rightly there is a big gap between the leagues Edited May 31, 2022 by Flappy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point completely, yeah maybe he’s banging in decent scores for Oxford but it is what it is I guess, surely can’t not be affecting him so it would be harsh too replace him. Deserves his place in this team in my opinion, and hopefully an improvement in form will come Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydoo Posted May 31, 2022 Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 Cant see any changes being made very soon based on the fact from heat 8 onwards last night the scores finished level (12 down at ht8 to losing by 12 at ht15) . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arch Stanton Posted May 31, 2022 Report Share Posted May 31, 2022 Panthers need a change or two otherwise they’ll be out of contention in record time. Problem being there’s very few options left in this country that could make a difference. Getting riders in from Europe can be pricey, will Buster splash the cash? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll mention him again as soon as he's fit Kildemand will be in there, I'd be shocked if he's not. He's already agreed terms with Lynn and I'm sure they'd prefer to keep NKI for the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
