  1. When in the meeting did Dickie the Gater get eaten and when did the rules change to allow the opposition to eat a rider ?
  2. Jonas Knudsen has bucketloads of potential, he's seriously good. Track way to heavy for our boys and they all left their gating gloves at home. One of the lesser meetings racingwise at Oxford this season. Fairplay to the Bandits they rode into town and stole the goods The Birdwatcher let us down, Again
  3. I know a few of the Cheetahs are from downunder but you can't really call us OZford
  4. I know he waited a long time but the one who waited 19 weeks was a woman who just wanted to go on holiday
  5. I heard on Radio Oxford either earlier this week or the tail end of last week that representatives of PETA were invited To the stadium to see the facilities for the Greyhounds and talk to those involved in running the Greyhounds, they declined I'm rapidly approaching my 60th birthday in an an ever changing World, where what was common usage of language in my youth is now frowned upon. I'd say in my life i've been pretty open and not given a toss about Race, Religion, Sexuality etc but to come across people who only believe what they want to hear/see and never listen to the otherside of the argument, you're all just narrowminded IMO.
  6. A lot Probably depends on if he has any British Patriality as I bet getting a Visa/work permit takes months nowadays. I read yesterday that someone who is a British citizen waited 19 weeks for a passport.
  7. If you read through various match topics you'll find around a million billion posts re no pay at the gate. You can buy online from the official site and if the meeting isn't soldout you can turn up on the night and buy online at the Stadium. I've heard you can pay by card at the gate, But I've not seen anyone paying on the night myself
  8. Wasn't it great, big crowd, good racing, last heat decider Let's hope it catches on
  9. Having seen the Thompson's this week for the first time in the flesh I feel if the present league setup and rules remain the same. That they would both benefit greatly from riding at a different home track in either Championship or NDL.
  10. Just watching Sky Racing channel which is showing a live race from Newcastle and the air fence is still there.
  11. As far as I know you have to book online for Unipart I've heard of people the last 2 meetings paying by card on entry but haven't seen anyone doing it.
  12. Parking is at Unipart and you select the option to park there when you buy a ticket online, i suspect there will be a big purge one night soon on those who choose to park in the residents only parking spots as they're too lazy to walk the 800 yards from Unipart or above sharing a shuttle to and from the stadium. TBH the information isn't that hard to find https://oxfordspeedway.club/tickets/
  13. Probably way way out of their remit as its an FIM meeting. Surely Discovery would have first dibs, but if they're not interested then BSN could put in an offer and as Del Boy always said he who dares wins
  14. So Berwick book a guest a booking that's no doubt sanctioned by the authorities to be told a few days before the meeting that the guest cannot ride. That's an absolute joke of an organisation
  15. He's not known as Dickie The Gater to my friends and me because of his prowess at passing the opposition
  16. Will this tune be played https://youtu.be/I47floRRAFs
  17. Cracking meeting with an inconsistent Referee IMO. Two incidents on run to the first turn where riders on gates one and two tangled up well before the bend. One is an exclusion and the other all four back. My vantage point while not as high up as the officials says its either both riders on gate 1 excluded after precedent set in heat 4. As I said to a few people tonight if you watch a start head on in 90% at least of races the rider on gate 4 heads for the white line and the rider on gate 1 moves out to get a better line into the 1st turn.
  18. Broc Nicol has been there a few times so may have gleaned some knowledge from what he has seen. Track is very fair and we have very little home advantage at the moment
  19. I haven't heard of any of our riders being injured other than Jack Thomas
  20. Rule 1 in the Speedway supporter rulebook Any rule in the rulebook can be manipulated in the best interests of the sport
  21. I've been saying for years along the lines of the next 6 or 8 in GP meet the qualifiers.
