A cut on the head doesn't indicate you have concussion,despite Shovlar's medical assessment from a hundred odd miles away.

Lyon said they had withdrawn him as he bashed his head on the temple. If it was just a cut Andersen would be riding.

Title has now been decided. Only a massive croak for Panthers will lose this. As a neutral it’s a shame BV didn’t get a ten point lead but Panthers were not harmed at all by Andersen injuring himself. They had the riders to cover.

Nicholls turned the clock back and rode a blinder on a track he doesn’t usually ride well. 

It would be great for Bjarne to hang up his leathers with a league title, and we can give him a proper send off at Poole at the end of this month.

Have you seen the two results at Peterborough this year?
Belle Vue ridden better away then at home all season .

He did what he wanted to do by ‘79

There were only a handful of top races at Wembley that night but that’s all people remember

I remember the whole day quite vividly... including my dad buying me a can off coke because it was so hot... for £1.50!!!!

Excellent meeting.Panthers dug deep to  get that result and thoroughly deserved to get within 2pts.A fully fit MPT and Andersen and they would have won tonight imo.Strange choice of guest which is very unusual for Rob.

It was officially announced in stadium withdrawn due to concussion, that would have come from clerk of the course.

Because your mum says so?

Because facts said so.

Belle Vue are average.

0-4 vs. Wolves.

1-1-1 at Home vs. Panthers (Only win was tonight when he had injuries galore)

Won once at Sheffield in three attempts and was only successful due to track conditions.

 

Panthers top of the league, Beat Wolves away with IRR, Lost by 2 tonight with IRR and a rider with two broken fingers.

What a track, what a meeting, what fantastic racing. 

Was umming and ahhing about going Thursday but definitely am, think it's very much in the balance as BV have hit 50 on both their visits to P'boro although they look a little vulnerable at reserve. 

Can't wait.
