If Oxford change their minds and go for the Championship, then Chris Harris will also have to choose between Berwick and Oxford, since he's signed for both....

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 !

We're did you get this information because as far as I understand it Oxford wanted premiership but application blocked by the clubs in it . 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 :t:

So Oxford will be running Fridays then??? Which is there wish

Why?

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...:D

Clubs not allowed to have the same owner in the same league. Leicester/Sheffield thus ok. 
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.

Can Oxford not ride on a Saturday instead? 

Saturday was always a popular night until, of course, the Grand Prix's came a long!

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.

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.
