Fell tonight. Physically couldn’t pick his bike up from shale. Shame for him. Hope he is okay for Peterborough.

He should've pulled out but would've got pelters from Redcar fans which I understand. Another issue with doubling up injuries don't heal

Team riding is a lost art that only older fans, like myself,  have seen and enjoyed.

Its worth a good few points at times in a meeting and with the experienced riders Peterborough have its benefitted them on  many occasions

Palin just been wiped out at Leicester

Bit of a misleading statement! Palin ran into the back of Dan Thompson's bike and that sent them both into the fence.

Dan's bike severely damaged. Fortunately both riders walked away from the incident. Palin excluded.

Where were the panthers fans last night ? I was in the South stand and there were only about 10 panthers fans , and before anybody says it's a long way to Manchester I live 260

miles from the nss. 

 

Will you be at Peterborough with the 10 or so Aces fans that normally attend at the showground?

Yes I thought that, 10 bit of an underestimate, there was about 20 of them :) For a play off final I couldn't believe it.

For normal league meetings there is about 50 or so at Peterborough, you will have seen us all hanging over the fence celebrating the Aces wins there.
 

On Thursday there will more likely be 200+, there is 2 coaches coming down.

Who ever wins Thursday will be deserved champions.  No excuses from me if kurtz being out costs us, its part of sport unfortunately, same for the Panthers.

What nonsense.

Belle Vue are missing one rider, who may end up riding.

Peterborough have Toft with two fingers, Andersen who has banged his head and Ulrich out injured.

Panthers are significantly weaker. 3 riders injured is more than 1.

He won't concussion 9 days out :nono:

Yes It states on official recacard on Bspa site he was withdrawn due to concussion. So this weakens Peterborough massively and no adequate replacement available. I have no idea why you would have a rule stopping you from using a rider from a team that was beaten in the semi final therefore no longer in the playoffs.

Even more so in a sport that allows riders to ride for all and sundry all season on an adhoc basis, and both finalists will no doubt have benefitted during "qualifying" by using any other teams' riders when the need arised...

"Completely Contrived" or... 

"Not quite as Completely Contrived"...

Doesnt really make much difference does it? 

Therefore just get two seven man teams out using the rules that have been used in getting both teams to the final.. 

Be sad if the final ends up one sided due to injuries, especially after leg one of The Final produced so much..
