You need Councillors to turn down the planning applications so I'd hold on before criticising them too soon.

Have to agree rather over the top - all people want to hear Chapman has sold the club - the announcement is hardly big news far from it - but it’s news and hopefully it helps the cause. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littleze Posted November 5, 2023 Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 A rally… effing hell… I hope Buster hasn’t approached a local school to come up with some *cough* rallying words for a sing a long. This has happy clappers written all over it. They should seek out some No To Oil protesters… that would get some attention, maybe splash Purple & White paint over some retailers window and glue their knackers to a programme board. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those same Councillors have already refused the AEPG / DHL proposal They have indeed and they deserve our support at what is an important part of Peterborough Speedway future existence. Its clear that a good turnout for the Peterborough Speedway Rally in Cathedral Square , Peterborough on Saturday 18th November from midday will have an effect on showing our local council that the Speedway has massive support in the city and shouldn’t be allowed to die after 53 years of history just so Ashley Butterfield and his company AEPG can make a lot of money. The Showground should stay for the benefit of Peterborough and it’s residents and be enjoyed for many years to come. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toady Posted November 5, 2023 Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 Hope you get a better turn out than this https://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/news/20241136.swindon-speedway-fans-fear-future-building-work-abbey-stadium-stalls/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Chapman has taken a bung to get out of the Showground (and I'm not suggesting he would... perish the thought), but if he was the kind of dodgy character to take a bung, then surely there'd be something in the agreement saying he can't sell the club. There'd be no point in paying-off someone to get his speedway team out of the Showground if he could just then sell the club to someone else wanting to go straight back in 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPEEDY69 Posted November 5, 2023 Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 (edited) Rally is the same day as the speedway show, wonder if that will have an impact? Edited November 5, 2023 by SPEEDY69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is we either go on November 18th or wait until end of January 2024. I think we had to go on November 18th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnbolly Posted November 5, 2023 Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 Hi I am more of a follower of the Witches however this guy Chapman seems to be a very selfish sort of person there are many supporters of Peterborough Speedway that deserve not to be kept in the dark about the future of the club I think there is a total lack of respect to the people that have supported the panthers over the years johnbolly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As there's 2 or 3 who are in the consortium on here. Obviously not the right time now, but it will surely come out in the end. Myself, i don't think he has. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be another speedway show but if the Panthers rally is a damp squib then there might not be a Peterborough Speedway. You can bet that Butterfield and his "poorly supported, non viable club" henchmen will be watching. If Panthers fans or others want something to do on the day, and to give Bratters and co the ammunition that they need, then the calculation is pretty simple.

IainB Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 Maybe if Panthers changed their colours (again) to that of the Palestinian flag they could be guaranteed a large vociferous turnout 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people want Peterborough speedway to survive then the only place to be is at the protest not the speedway show. A high turn out with plenty of noise is vital, a poor turn out & that plays right into the developers hands. Good luck to all involved 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTT Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 We've got to turn up as it's a crucial protest, It's essential that we keep applying the pressure on AEPG because they're on the back foot as it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
