Steve Shovlar Posted Tuesday at 05:03 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 05:03 PM So hopefully we will open the Oxford season tomorrow night. Surprised no Oxford fan could start a thread but this place is nothing like it used to be. Pretty dead nowadays. Both teams I guess at full strength. Still loath to pay for a ticket online just incase we get a notification at 4pm tomorrow that the meeting is not going ahead due to a leasing problem. Fingers crossed all is now sorted. Should be a close, entertaining fixture if all goes smoothly. Thoughts? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ASpeedwayfan Posted Tuesday at 05:17 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 05:17 PM Should be a good meeting, pirates stronger at reserve but Oxford perhaps stronger everywhere else(especially at home) Riss and Masters will be extremely difficult to beat and I’m sure Rowe will be fired up to prove a point. Oxford to win, Poole to keep it close and take the agg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluekevin Posted Tuesday at 05:28 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 05:28 PM Anyone have an idea what time a decision might be made. Weather looks very wet mid afternoon. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The forecast might be wrong, the rain might not hit the stadium. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HomeStraight Posted Tuesday at 05:49 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 05:49 PM It’s only forecast as light, 1mm in the afternoon, over before 7. It was also forecast today and didn’t happen at all, dry all day, I’m a mile from the track, we’ve had a lot more rain than that and gone ahead. Plus presumably they’ve had ample time to work on the track. Should be a good meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were reports that equipment had been removed..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And those dinosaurs still on here realise all the Oxford fans are on social media and focus our attention there. Should be an absolute cracker of a meeting tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the only reason was Kerr did well at Plymouth and has started the season off pretty well and something they will try out away from home as I see Cook reverting back to 5 at home.

The Poole team that was submitted for the programme was Kerr at 3 and Cook at 5, which is also the team on the BSPA website and Poole's social media this morning. PS Apologies for the error regarding Poole's sponsor in the programme - of course, it's Wessex Marine and will be corrected when Pirates are next in town. My error - it's been that sort of week but now looking forward to seeing speedway back at Oxford! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveLyric2 Posted 13 hours ago Report Share Posted 13 hours ago So Oxford missing Eric Riss who is 'ill', replaced by Justin Sedgman!! I hope its not a recurrence of the 'dizziness' illness from previous seasons? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
