Big Al 708 Posted October 29, 2023 Difficult to defend the club over this. What happened between the decisions to start letting people in, and the call-off? I don't think that any further rain fell - in fact if anything the sky brightened Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hamish McRaker 601 Posted October 29, 2023 The obvious solution is for Phil Morris to hire the Cardiff stadium (at mates rates), bring Ole Olsen over to instal a track, and sell it to Discovery+ at a huge profit for televising. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ashton Boughen had two falls and Tom Spencer and Max James one apiece. Max J’s heavy fall pretty much signified that was the end of any hope of the meeting starting. Jordan Jenkins was the only Oxford rider to put in some laps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Dog 413 Posted October 29, 2023 Until people just stop going at this time of year, clubs will keep trying to run meetings and let folks travel/enter without a 2nd thought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If this is the last meeting at Leicester this season, is there any confirmation yet as to who is taking over Promotional rights from Bates brothers. I assume Dave Helmsley still owns the stadium?

Jordan Jenkins was the only Oxford rider to put in some laps. Max Perry has always been a stylish rider whenever I've seen him ride. I hope he gets a CL place next season and that the team stick with him, unless he suffers an injury. With all the Leicester riders having a spin to test the track I hope that the Oxford riders who hadn't yet had a chance would've been offered the opportunity. I think at any track at any level if it's a bit wet allowing everyone a couple of practice laps could sometimes get meetings on instead of postponed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
