Cradley Heath had a team at Wolves in the NL some years ago. They didn't like each other either! Me and my mates are some of those who have travelled up from Swindon a few times. We are glad Oxford are back. But we always want the oppo to win! Unless its Poole and then its a tough call for us due to the rivalry in the top league we had for the last 10 years or so! A Swindon team at Oxford would never work. You wouldn't get enough travelling support from Swindon or enough Oxford fans attending the Swindon matches to make it viable.

If British Speedway is running one, two or three leagues? Then Oxford can decide which league to enter? Plus it says if we're running one two or three leagues, not of we're competing in one, two or three leagues. Edited November 14, 2023 by szkocjasid 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
