Advertised as E ticket only no pay at gate anybody know why ?

If you read through various match topics you'll find around a million billion posts re no pay at the gate. You can buy online from the official site and if the meeting isn't soldout you can turn up on the night and buy online at the Stadium.

I've heard you can pay by card at the gate, But I've not seen anyone paying on the night myself

Ridiculous it is even allowed! Surely a 'conflict of interests' ??!

Young killeen should be left to nl for a few meetings being thrown in deep will do his confidence no good

It seems Oxford are using him based on one fantastic NL match, mind you that match was against a VERY weak Plymouth side, where his reserve partner Butcher also scored double figures. Miles away from Champ standard!

 

Oxford could have used Jenkins, Stoneman or Atkins today!

Crazy that Danny could help put Plymouth above Poole! :blink:

Maybe your right.

But another angle, He has been struggling with engines this year & now has new ones. Just maybe it's a chance to test them & get paid to practice to find his best set up & in turn record better results for Poole in the long term.

Yes true but he can do that when riding for Ipswich ;):P

Of course it is...

It is total nonsense isnt it? 

But fans of the sport who attend each week, and collude with promoters pretending that it a real team sport, cannot really have it both ways...

Great sport to watch but best not to take it seriously from a competitive team sport angle in the UK..

Just enjoy, what can be, a great spectacle and ignore the infrastructure around it...

The crowd numbers at Oxford , after their long absence, certainly seems to suggest that they are happy with what they are watching, and having a track with numbers like that can only be good for the sport..

2nd visit of the season from the Swindon 3. Track prep was better than Poole as no dust until late on. Scotty is certainly dialled in around that place. Some class outside passes when no one else could make it work out wide late on. Impressed by all the work that has been done to get Oxford going again. A bit jealous TBH. Good crowd again and it all seems to be going well for the boys down the road. 

See you in August for the Edinburgh meeting!

Don't see the issue, as Fromafar said it's all about maximising earnings, wouldn't imagine they'd give a second thought what effect it has on the league table.

...and as it turned out it had little effect on the League table anyway!!

To be honest bit of a strange choice I thought, not Danny's best season so far!
