Fortythirtyeight 835 Posted November 4, 2021 For Oxford to be allowed to enter the championship as it currently stands with a Friday night race night then one of the current Friday night tracks will have to move leagues or race nights. Clubs have previously been blocked from having Fridays as, since Glasgow and Scunthorpe moved to Fridays, there simply isn’t enough room to accommodate another Friday fixture, as eight teams will already be riding on the same night and that causes issues with rider availability when the dreaded guests are needed , which they inevitably are with injuries, riding abroad, required for Team GB , family birthday etc happens. But , we wait and see what the new ‘ cunning plan’ for the saving of British speedway is, Godfrey & Co. could surprise us all ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Godfrey dose not make the decisions as it's a board of members he's just the one who announces them and takes the flack for it. Think those that think it's a one man dictatorship need to give their heads a wobble and find another agenda So Oxford will be running Fridays then???

Doesn't Sheffield and Leicester have the same promoter? Even they double up now... So why not also have a "guest promoter" for two teams in the same league?... Got a nice synergy to it...

However, the work around is. Same owner in same league ie as in recent times Kings Lynne/Ipswich/Peterborough is ok if separate promoters/co promoters are the front men. Is it right to do so? Others can decide. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike0310 658 Posted November 5, 2021 We at Plymouth always run on a Friday in the national league but when we moved up were told no way can you run Fridays if oxford are allowed for me it stinks you can’t have one rule for one and different for another. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Which is there wish No idea all I know is they wanted premiership which would of been Mondays or Thursday nights as fixed race days so Friday wouldn't come into the equation.
