Panthers won't give up on Roynon
SPEEDWAY: Peterborough Panthers' bid to track rising British star Adam Roynon has been rejected by the Speedway Control Bureau (SCB) - but the club are not prepared to give up without a fight.
SPEEDWAY: Peterborough Panthers' bid to track rising British star Adam Roynon has been rejected by the Speedway Control Bureau (SCB) - but the club are not prepared to give up without a fight.The SCB have blocked Roynon's inclusion in the city side as he does not meet the required criteria for a doubling-up reserve berth. The Workington rider doesn't possess the necessary Premier League average from last season because he missed all of it after breaking his neck in a crash at a pre-season GB training camp.
Panthers are remaining tight-lipped on the issues, but The Evening Telegraph understands they are exploring other possible avenues to include Roynon in their team.
The 20 year-old could end up being left with a choice between riding for Workington in the second tier of the sport or making a full-time step-up to the top level with Panthers.
