The silent happy clappers & noisy keyboard warriors scenario has been going on as long as I've been on the internet. Just remind them that in 16 weeks their pain will be over and they'll have to find something else to do/support, for ever. I'd be interested to know who penned this: "we can only stress that the club needs you more than ever at this moment. We are not giving up, so please do not give up on us" because that really is a two way situation and the management team are basically creating an atmosphere on and off track where everyone does indeed just give up on them.

LagutaRacingFan Posted May 9, 2023 Report Share Posted May 9, 2023 The whole season feels like a write off. No new signing on the horizon. The fixture list is also too sparse, I want to go to the Showground every 2 weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamish McRaker Posted May 9, 2023 Report Share Posted May 9, 2023 It is almost like there is a curse on the Peterborough No 1 team position to the extent that nobody wants to occupy it, even as guests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they want to tackle it on their own that’s fair enough but at least say something ! We’ve got to the end of this week to get a number 1 or the season is all but done, I know we will keep getting a facility for nicki blah blah but surely you want a team of 7 and not 6 plus who ever is available on the night, it’s getting pathetic now They responded very quickly regarding the weather on Monday, now back into hiding.

My wife and myself are this afternoon again taking part in a screening programme for research in relation to early detection of various forms of cancer (in the sincere hope that this will benefit others in the long run) ................. what are you doing ??

This is a speedway forum and specifically a Peterborough panthers thread so surely we are all allowed to talk all things panthers. And with no communication from the club what do ever this is the next best thing for most people. There are people on here that have speedway news before clubs even release stuff.

I have done many things to help people, as have many other forum members, but haven't felt the need to mention it on a speedway forum. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
