Bagpuss Posted 4 hours ago Report Share Posted 4 hours ago There are clearly some issues at Oxford but fair play to McDiarmid, Killeen and particularly Kildemand for putting in plenty of effort. Palovaara was reasonable considering it was his AFA debut but the less said about the others the better. As a friend of mine said last night, we've only been waiting five months for the Lynn team to all click 😁 the opposition was obviously very poor but nice to hit 60 albeit too late to mean much.

This team has always been very capable. Ben's injury, close away defeats an home and away to BV and Sheffield that could so easily have been wins - add a bit more confidence and belief and our season could have looked very different..... If this team all fit average wise again next season, I'd probably take it, especially if we can't attract a genuine no. 1....

They all fit in easily with their current averages, if the points limit is the same next season. Just thought I would take a look at the averages after last night's result,and under King's Lynn it has the Oxford averages😆 Edited 2 hours ago by tellboy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on the limit and how many teams compete (ie who may be freed up) but I'd be quite happy to seen them all back, its a team I've enjoyed watching this year. You just feel it needs somebody to nail down the number one spot so that everyone rides on the position they should, the current 1-7 has a really good balance. Niels has been a different rider at 2 for example compared to his earlier struggles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PersonalResponsibility Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago 4 hours ago, mikebv said: "If" that is fhte case ... Then just don't turn up.... And state why..... That way the fans will actually understand and more than likely be on your side.. Turning up and just going through the motions means fans will be cheesed off with you after having paid to watch you ride... And a ban won't make any difference to a rider if they are not getting paid anyway.... Maybe a ban won't make much difference in some situations, but why should the rider suffer if they're the ones not being paid? What if Tungate had the opportunity of another team place and couldn't take it up because he was banned for withholding his services? Who knows what the real truth is here. Let's face it, Tungate is hardly Mr. Reliable at the best of times, but everything always seems so focused on the riders. If it's a crap track, riders are 'whining', if they're not getting paid they should refuse to turn up, etc. Maybe it's time they started properly investigating these things and punishing the club if they're to blame. It's not as if a points deduction would bother Oxford this season, but it might send some sort of message. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people cant be out later than that as a rule then that's on them not speedway clubs. Those people obviously don't go to midweek football matches, concerts, evening cinema showings or anything else that might deprive them of their cocoa.

If it was a normal evening it would’ve been done and dusted a lot earlier… 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BackInTheDHSS Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago 3 minutes ago, Odds On said: anything to back this up or just hearsay? Take a guess? If there was any truth in it, there would have been a thread ‘Oxford riders not being paid’ before, and we wouldn’t conveniently be hearing this for the first time a few mins after a rider has a tantrum. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odds On Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago this is my take on the Tungate saga....practice start before his first heat the bike doesn't sound right, shakes his head towards his mechanic, mechanic then touches the bike and taps Tungate on the back as if good to go, the 2 minutes was on anyway, so couldn't of done a lot else, tapes go up and bike gets no further than the second bend and gives up..Obviously words in the pits, misses his second programmed ride, next ride he finishes third but the bike looked like it all but died going over the finishing line, doesn't ride again. Now it could be several things, both bikes died on the night or he doesn't want ride for what ever reason. What ever the reason it didn't look good for Oxford, Speedway or Tungate himself. Hopefully the truth will come out and not just a pointless press release from the club or rider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very much agree with that. Its the box office where the queues occur, get half of those people buying in advance and it would make a massive difference.
