Imagine saying to a club "you can't ride on Fridays because I may need to use your riders for my team" There you go perfectly sums up all that is wrong with British speedway in under 50 words and still they can't sort it out. Anyhow great to see Oxford back and all the best for 22 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Diamonds85 695 Posted November 18, 2021 (edited) I'd like to see Dan Gilkes and Jake Mulford at reserve for Oxford. Also Danyon Hume at number 2, if he isn't riding for Poole. That would leave plenty of room for a strong top 4, spearheaded by Scotty Nicholls (So jealous) 1. Scott Nicholls (c) 2. Danyon Hume 3. 4. 5. 6. Dan Gilkes 7. Jake Mulford Would be a great start, if another 8.5-9.0er could be acquired for the number 5 spot (Troy?) And then a solid 3 and 4 (Tommy Jorgensen?), would be a decent team for Oxford's return...

lbw 869 Posted November 18, 2021 Dan Gilkes & Jake Mulford are great prospects but with the rising star lifted it could leave Oxford vulnerable if they are both signed up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gilkes yes Mulford no. Sadly he lacks focus on speedway and is trying to run before he can walk. Gilkes on the other hand will be sought after by many clubs with huge potential and a very professional approach Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
