    The Good Year

    Not far off for Oxford. I would go for 1985, rather than 1986. 1985 was the first league championship for 21 years. The first time (for a whole generation who hadn't been around in 1964) is always special. 1986 was an even more successful year, but the weather meant it finished in anti-climax. In contrast, the final home meeting of 1985 was the KO Cup Final with Oxford beating Ipswich in a last-heat decider - which I would rate as the best-ever meeting at Cowley.

    Premiership 2024 Confirmed Signings

    Janowski's average is 8.00 for Oxford Spires. For the same reason Crump came back on 8.00 at Ipswich in 2021 - no average set within the qualifying period.

    Oxford vs Workington - 16/8

    Yup, the 8-day-rule is not used for NL riders and I think it's a decent rule, because otherwise it could restrict bookings for younger riders. It's good that Luke can ride for Jake, expect for fixture clashes.

    Oxford vs Workington - 16/8

    Eight day rule for guest doesn't apply to NL riders. Same as Ben Morley guesting at Plymouth in consecutive weeks last year, before he then signed for them later in the season. All in the rulebook.

    Plymouth v Redcar

    It wasn't the most charming way of putting it, but when you looked at the replay, Worrall was right. There was room for Ben Trigger to keep going around the outside but instead he shut off.

    Oxford vs Kent - NDL - 08/08

    Kent would have lined-up as follows: 1. Ben Morley 2. Rhys Naylor R/R 3. Matt Marson (G) 4. Tom Woolley (C) 5. Nathan Ablitt 6. Ashton Vale 7. Connor King There was no Number 8 (aka Additional Rider) as far as I'm aware.

    Oxford vs Kent - NDL - 08/08

    Nice try, but even Ben Barker admitted on BSF that there were riders on both sides who wanted it off, while Lee Kilby who was in the changing rooms when the decision was made described it as "95%". Face it, Plymouth made a very, very late call-off yesterday when the track was much too soft to allow racing and had been like that for some time. Greg Blair called out the "efforts" of the Plymouth promotion (or rather lack of them) on BSN. And no sign of an apology on the Plymouth website either or how they intend to refund customers.
  8. His comments have come back to well and truly bite him on the bum!

    Oxford vs Kent - NDL - 08/08

    As I said, Mr Trigger, those in glass houses. Today, Oxford called off nice and early, while Plymouth called off around 45 minutes past the start-time when arguably it could have been called off much earlier in the day. But it's a nightmare situation for every club at the moment - such a difficult situation for all promoters.

    Oxford Speedway Programme 2023

    Steve, thanks for the kind comments about the programme. The idea is to have a varied programme, with plenty of interesting stuff to read. We're not in it to win any awards, although it was nice when only the (excellent) Edinburgh programmes were placed ahead of us last season. PS I know you're a long way away, but hoping you make it down at some point - we do have a couple of Friday meetings on the way (August 25 and September 1) if that helps!

    Oxford vs Kent - NDL - 08/08

    Looks like it is a double header!
  13. I imagine the family made the most of the break But it wasn't just a jolly in their case, but a visa requirement. Wolves knew the situation and agreed not to ride that day... until they were forced to!
  14. He didn't go on holiday - that was Ryan Douglas and your precious Steve Worrall. Sam's partner had visa requirements that meant he needed to leave the UK.
