Purplepanthernotred Posted January 17, 2023 Report Share Posted January 17, 2023 In all honesty I’d rather the club try someone like kye thomson as I’ve previously mentioned rather than Hans, if kye took some time too get going then least he’s got an excuse unlike Hans, enoughs enough I’m afraid. Surely doesn’t want too damage that club legend status any further after last seasons awful showing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplepanthernotred Posted January 17, 2023 Report Share Posted January 17, 2023 I’ve also defended the club on Facebook fairly regularly but I for one will be one of the first too have a serious dig if they are fielding a heavily under the limit team like it’s now being suggested. Best thing the club could do now if communicate with the fans, surely they can tell that a lot of the supporters are being rubbed up the wrong way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flappy Posted January 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2023 I don't actually think the team looks bad, in fact replace Andersen with another heat leader that team can challenge the favourites. It boils down to Andersen or someone else, if it's budget tell us and explain why. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haza Posted January 17, 2023 Report Share Posted January 17, 2023 (edited) If Panthers going to be under the points limit with Andersen I think the club might as well roll the dice and take a gamble on a new young rider from Europe least it’s building a team with the future in mind - Hans sadly is a spent force a shadow of his former self .

Absolutely, rather give a young lad a go with some fire in the belly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTT Posted January 17, 2023 Report Share Posted January 17, 2023 Club will have some explaining to do if we end up with the inevitable. The 1-7 hype train in full effect, Trying to get people to part with good money during a cost of living crisis, Fans kept in the dark all winter with a lack of info etc. I could honestly see fans supporting King's Lynn or Ipswich instead starting from next season tbh considering Peterborough won't have a future after the 2023 season if the club doesn't have a new owner with new land. The die hard Speedway fans will still want to see their regular fix of racing live each week and KL/Ipswich are the closest tracks to us for them to visit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTT Posted January 17, 2023 Report Share Posted January 17, 2023 If the club insist of being loyal to Hans again then Ben Cook has to released for Troy Batchelor. Yes it's harsh on Ben but you simply cannot go almost 2.5 under the limit and expect to compete at this level with anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panthers are likely to be at the showground for at least one more year after this but they're awaiting it in writing from the relevant authorities. I think this is part of the ownership hold up 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yaxley panther Posted January 17, 2023 Report Share Posted January 17, 2023 I remember back in the early 90's when Peter Oakes and James Easter took over the club , and there was a fans forum at the club and nobody really knew what the team was going to be and throughout the evening each rider was announced one by one with nobody really knowing the team that we had ... Maybe the club are rolling back the years and doing the same , that would be awesome !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTT Posted January 17, 2023 Report Share Posted January 17, 2023 I see Hawkins has let the fans know that Ipswich won't be making any announcements for a few weeks, That tells me they're still trying for Emil. Also tells us they've got no interest in signing Worrall unless it's out of desperation at the eleventh hour, It's a case of we'll settle for him if we cant get anyone else.

LagutaRacingFan Posted January 17, 2023 Report Share Posted January 17, 2023 Hans is very popular with the fans and knows the club. He would be an astute signing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ipswich too far and awful track so that’s another definite no. Other people may think differently as you suggest but thought I’d give my view. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
