Belle Vue v Peterborough Panthers - Grand Final


Recommended Posts

Don’t think this is over at all. The Peterborough team showed great fighting spirit on Monday if they carry that on into tomorrow’s meeting who knows ?. It’s all to play for . For the fans of both sides attending I hope it’s as good as the first leg . May the best team win good luck to both sides

I am hoping he will be thinking about tomorrow when he is considering a daring pass 

Sure Aces fans are similar with Worrall, anymore injuries to either side and it becomes a bit of a joke with putting together a side

I would be VERY surprised if he does... 

Not in his make up I would say...

Interesting that Pearson and Tatum on the No Brakes, No Fear podcast, said that all other 4 teams riders are available to guest. Also Schlein said that Hans has had to pull out of his farewell meeting due to injury.

If true game changer

Whatever team we put out Thursday night will do us proud I'm sure. As did the team tonight. To get within two points of BV with an injured number 1, Hans withdrawing after one ride and a guest who only scored 1 point speaks volumes. Probably one of the most consistent and exciting teams we have ever had!

So why didn't we get a guest on Monday and likewise for Belle Vue then. Wouldn't be the first time the chuckle brothers got something wrong.

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.

Where did I say that Belle Vue had more missing than Peterborough.  I said it's part of sport, many teams have lost due to weakened teams over years including Belle Vue.

Peterborough have gained advantage from having rr for oystercard all year, 

There should be some sort of maximum limit of matches you can use rr, especially if it's known there season is over.

Yes It states on official recacard on Bspa site he was withdrawn due to concussion.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. 

I think the rule had merit, but needs adapting, especially with only 6 teams in the league.  I think In the playoffs the 8 day rule needs scraping for home matches and the guest rule should be allowed from teams who exit playoffs at the semi final stage, but maybe limit a rider only guesting for 1 team.

All they showed on TV was his crash and then him walking away, albeit a bit gingerly, so how do you know

Erm maybe, just maybe Rob went to the meeting live.

I was there and the first thing I said was he's been knocked our there, and was a great relief when  he finally sat up.

I agree with you to a point. Panthers did try and replace him and two moves they made fell through.

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.

Probably the Peterborough supporters were still driving around trying to find somewhere to park that was safe
