I’m not one to criticise Oxford Speedway (we all waited ages for it to reopen), but a few things after last night.
First off, Peter Schroeck is a hardworking bloke who’s passionate about the sport. But his decisions, or lack thereof, are starting to get a bit worrying, especially when it affects the team at home. It’s clear to me that there are a lot of empty spaces around the stadium, and winning at home is crucial.
The track is often a dustbowl and hardly ever gets any improvement after some of the longest track grading breaks in speedway.
And let’s not forget about car parking despite a £2 charge It says shuttle bus subject to availability as of yesterday, but in my experience, it’s never been available . This puts off a lot of people, especially those who aren’t as mobile
I think the management of the club should start taking notice of these issues before more and more people start to drift away.
