Sadly it works like a charm! Stop replying to him/her people for crying out loud. You’re giving them the oxygen that they crave.

No probs.

Monday May 5th 2.15pm start. It’s on Ipswich’ fixture list and always has been. Not sure about Lynn’s as haven’t looked.

Love a Bank Holiday afternoon meeting. Don’t always produce the best of racing strip particularly in the summer but the extra numbers and atmosphere make it a great occasion. Looking forward to the East Anglian derby on May bank Holiday. Lynn having a more competitive side this year will add to the interest. Will be a bumper Foxhall crowd that’s for sure.

Eh? You’re making no sense whatsoever. Let me make it a little simpler for you as you appear to be struggling. Chris Harris himself released a statement saying that he wasn’t in Oxford’s plans. That’s the factual part. Now the rest of his statement is open to debate. My personal point of view, is he didn’t seem to have taken the news particularly well and was happy riding for the club. Of course I don’t know that and could be wrong there. But if it was a mutual decision or he himself wanted to move, then it was a very strange statement to make. But again, I have no idea as to Oxford’s reasoning for not wanting Harris this year, and quite frankly I don’t particularly care. The only fact we know, is that Harris wasn’t in Oxford’s plans because the rider himself said so.

I’ve missed nothing and it’s totally irrelevant as to the reasons of him not being in Oxford’s team in 2025. I was responding to a post that said maybe Harris didn’t want to ride for Oxford anymore, and that clearly isn’t the case whichever way you want to spin it. He was informed he wasn’t in the plans this year, the reasons why they decided that is completely irrelevant.

But we’ve literally heard his haven’t we. He was told he wasn’t in Oxford’s plans and didn’t seem particularly pleased about it. Pretty weird statement to make if he left of his own desire.

Harris himself gave a statement in October saying he wasn’t in Oxford’s plans and didn’t seem to be exactly pleased about it either. https://watch.britishspeedway.co.uk/articles/bombed-out

Excellent signing IMO.

It’s very close to being a team that will challenge for a play off spot and it probably would have if they’d managed to use all the points available for the last signing. I’d guess the uncertainty early on cost them options and left them behind the others in terms of planning. They’ve done very well considering, but it must be frustrating to be so close to an even stronger team that could challenge.

Well that’s turned out better than most expected. That’s a competitive side and will be a tough nut to crack on their own track. Might be found wanting away a little bit, but at home that team will win most of their meetings once they get dialled in.

Think people need to watch the incident again. He may well have broken his footrest, but that wasn’t what caused him to fall. He was simply being chucked all over the place by riding through the high dirt pile by the fence.

Uppa Witches 😁

I’m not convinced of that. Time will tell.

This looked the weakest part of his game the first season he was here, his gating was generally awful. But that improved considerably last season. The only downside for me with this years Witches team. Would have loved to have kept him in the side, super talent.
