Bald Bloke Posted May 27, 2022 Report Share Posted May 27, 2022 (edited) The Panthers are the visitors to the NFA on Monday evening. It's not been a good start to the season for the Panthers, but they ran us close last month in the cup (47-43). I don't think we can be complacent, and i'm sure Alex and the riders will know that. Last time Ully started off with 3 good heat wins and bagged 11 points, while at reserve that man Ben Basso looked very impressive on his way to a 14 haul. MPT is back for this one, and i'm pretty sure he will score more than the 7 points that RR got for him on their last visit. If we get the same Ben Basso come Monday, it could be a tight one. Thoughts..... Edited May 27, 2022 by Bald Bloke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelvinht Posted May 27, 2022 Report Share Posted May 27, 2022 With Richard Lawson now starting to show some decent form against a misfiring Peterborough team, I can see a 10 point starts win.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LisaColette Posted May 28, 2022 Report Share Posted May 28, 2022 I'm gonna go for a surprising 47-43! I think Peterborough's top 5 will find form at some point and they could start to at this meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bald Bloke Posted May 28, 2022 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2022 For me it depends on Ben Basso. I'll be happy if we can send the Panthers home with 0 points at the end of the day.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTT Posted May 29, 2022 Report Share Posted May 29, 2022 KL by double figures for me unfortunately. I really think we could end up with 0 wins in the league this season unless changes are made. Only chance I could see us winning a meeting is against Ipswich or Wolves at Home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of interest who would you bring in? Feel sorry for the struggling teams as realistically who gonna come over? Better off the management going overboard trying to help Hans and Ulrich get their form going. Well Hans is doing well for Plymouth, so just needs to transfer it over to Peterborough!

Well Hans is doing well for Plymouth, so just needs to transfer it over to Peterborough! I'd look at riders riding in the Polish Zuzlowa League who aren't riding in three leagues yet. Former Panthers Krzysztof Buczkowki would be top of my list. Andreas Lyager is another one I would make an offer too. I would also ask Grzegorz Zengota if he fancies a return to British racing. Ulrich's totally gone imo. Reverted back to old Ulrich for Glasgow too. Hans was poor in the 1-5 last year where he only averaged about 5 a meeting. Average is built from his stint at reserve where he was putting up 12+ a meeting imo. Edited May 29, 2022 by TTT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree it don't look good at the moment, and i would be looking at making a change. I know the Champ isn't as strong, but there is a huge difference in some of you riders aves compared to the Prem. Champ.. Prem Hans 8.57 4.76 Harris 9.30 5.14 Scotty 8.21 4.36 Ully 6.74 4.00 MPT 7.89 6.40 As we know Ully isn't going nowhere near his 7 point starting average. MPT will be ok imho. But the other 3 have started the Prem poorly, but are doing pretty good in the Champ? We have Lewi Champ 8.15 , Prem 3.64, and RW Champ 8.87 and Prem 3.67, but our others are doing ok. and as with your lot, it's early days. Heat 15 from last month when the Panthers ran us to a last HT decider... Edited May 29, 2022 by Bald Bloke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LagutaRacingFan Posted May 29, 2022 Report Share Posted May 29, 2022 Older riders take longer to warm up, we're nearly in June and the Panthers boys have shaken off the rust. Lynn 40-50 Panthers 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaColette Posted May 29, 2022 Report Share Posted May 29, 2022 But Hans is on form just not for Panthers! But weird riding for one of the smallest tracks and one of the biggest. Would need separate engines for both, so prob just got Plymouth ones set up better? Though bigger gap from Prem to Champ now as a fair few seem to have a bigger gap in their averages from one league to the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tellboy Posted May 29, 2022 Report Share Posted May 29, 2022 How come Lawson moves to number one.I thought the averages would come into effect from June.Although i see Iversen's became effective from the 26th of this month,so i take it the whole team does on the same date then or surely Pickering has a higher average than Lawson until June.
