These sort of negotiations tend to linger on and if so have a damning effect on the fixtures

I think, to be fair, when a rider isn't aware of such a significant change then the comms. process probably needs looking at.... In my old job employment law changed almost weekly, so I got notified of the updates ongoing, meaning I would follow the "new rules" when making decisions... I wasn't expected to read the whole employment law each year to pick out the changes.. The BSP put out their operating model changes from their AGM, therefore maybe the ACU should do the same?

I think we all hope so.

That’s put the tin hat on their venture. Come in on a gentle wind and gone out like a hurricane 

Full statement for anyone unable to see: "🗞️ 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗢𝘅𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗱 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘄𝗮𝘆 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗝𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗢𝘅𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗱 𝗖𝗵𝗲𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗵𝘀 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 “You will be aware that over the weekend there have been a series of meetings following the termination of the deal between SIS and Oxford Greyhounds to stream racing from the BetGoodwin Stadium. “Inevitably that decision and subsequent ongoing negotiations impact on Oxford Speedway and I can confirm that Wednesday’s BSN Series meeting between the Cheetahs and Plymouth will not go ahead. “We will, however, travel to The Coliseum on Saturday night to face the Gladiators with the visit of Poole next Wednesday opening the official home season at the BetGoodwin Stadium. “Plymouth – and I must thank Mark Phillips for his understanding and co-operation on this – will now visit Cowley on April 22 to compete the BSN Southern Section fixtures – a date Berwick were due to travel south to fulfil a Championship fixture on. “That fixture will be re-arranged for later in the season. “With complex and involved negotiations between a number of stakeholders, including ourselves, on-going and the added inconvenience of a double Bank Holiday I did not feel it was possible to run Wednesday’s meeting. “I firmly believe that it is short-term inconvenience which will have long-term and far-reaching benefits for Oxford Speedway and Oxford Stadium. “British Speedway Promoters Ltd and the Speedway Control Bureau have been kept updated regarding the situation, as has Oxford Greyhounds. “I know there has been much online speculation and a lot of misinformation posted “as fact”. “We will keep our loyal supporters and sponsors updated via the club’s official channels.”   Jamie Courtney, 7 April, 2026   #OxfordSpeedway | #BritishSpeedway🇬🇧"

Complex negotiations are ongoing  Fingers crossed for a success resolution
