He openly said he was willing to ride here. Spending god knows what (800 quid is it?) on a set of Kevlars and then say off you go after one single meeting is a pi$s take. Dreadful way to treat a rider. Expand Not if he seamlessly slots into Lynn's team instead. I suspect the Tungate u-turn is a symptom of the power struggle between Chapman & Tomalin.

Dreadful way to treat a rider. Expand I was surprised that many Boro fans wanting Worrall out after 1 meeting. That was ruthless. It seems like winning the league has changed some's mentality.

Expand Hardly one you can turn down. Tungate scoring power around the EOES could win us bonus points, Worrall will score 4-5 home and away, but worth taking a punt on Rohan who can score 12 or 0. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand It’s harsh but I don’t think many were that keen in the first place. There was already a lot of anger at the club after last years farce too, we was turning up to meetings with 2 guests and R/R some weeks, a few have also fallen for the crap that was being promised over the winter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluPanther Posted April 11, 2023 Report Share Posted April 11, 2023 Buster's ego has caused these problems. There comes a time when the past should be put to bed, and the best interest of the team takes precedence... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Yes, Buster wouldn't leave his mate jobless after one meeting if KK was performing because he was the one who insisted on giving Worrall a job in the first place. KK's showings has opened up an opportunity to leave all parties happy. Worrall gets a job on the same contract he's got at Peterborough, Buster and Dale get what they want by working with Worrall again, Tomalin and Lyon get what they want by having Tungate in the side instead of Worrall, Panthers fans get a stronger team and KL fans get rid of the unwanted KK for a rider who will actually put some effort in for them.

Not taking Worrall so you can strengthen up. Worrall isn't the answer for the KK situation. But it helps the Panthers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gasser90 Posted April 11, 2023 Report Share Posted April 11, 2023 Does anyone have any concrete info as to what the hell is going on at pboro ? We race in 48 hours. It’s almost certain pedersen has gone so why no press release or anything. I thought there would be a meeting preview out today for Thursday. It’s like they’ve given up. It’s going to be the last season so stuff it. Makes no sense at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
