    That's the Speedway Star getting the wrong end of the stick I'm afraid. It wasn't a direct interview with the Star, but a piece written from a press release. Said press release never said 'top flight operation', but simply that the Spires wouldn't be running in 2026. Fact is none of us know which league the Cheetahs will be in, so any speculation is exactly that at this stage... speculation.
  2. Bojangles
    Pretty sure @arnieg has done more for speedway than 99% of people on this forum. And I'm 100% sure he cares more than you.
  3. Bojangles
    Oxford a prime example of that. Cheetahs got bigger crowds than the Spires this season (not that the Cheetahs won anything, but they were at least more competitive).
  4. Bojangles
    It's not exactly just a speedway thing, though, is it? Happens in almost every sport. Declan Rice (football, Ireland and England) and Israel Folau (rugby, Australia and Tonga) are two high profile ones I can think of off the top of my head... although I'm sure there are thousands of examples.

    What was he wearing?
  6. Bojangles
    Just realised Redcar are still in the hunt for the quadruple. When was the last team to win four trophies in one season?
  7. Bojangles
    And you're a fine example of somebody who loves to attend speedway meetings in person right? Shame you said the exact opposite three months ago....
  8. Bojangles
    Well... you don't exclude GP riders for no reason, you set a realistic points limit that makes it affordable for all. That's the theory anyway.

    Well it worked last season, just not this season. While the novelty factor was always going to wear off, I honestly think Oxford should have a good look at how they went about it. Poor team building, shocking team management and getting trounced every week are not a good recipe for success. Most Oxford fans I spoke to actually enjoyed the weekly speedway, but their enthusiasm waned as the season progressed for the reasons mentioned above.
  10. Bojangles
    Yeah, but to be fair, that doesn't clarify which league Oxford will be running in - simply that there won't be three teams. If Oxford were to drop out of the Championship, they wouldn't kill off the 'Cheetahs' name.
  11. Bojangles
    Yes, ignore the television, and listen to a poster on a forum.
  12. Bojangles
    Same at Oxford. There are numerous Reading (and even a few Swindon) fans who attend each week, wearing their old club kit.
  13. Bojangles
    They are concrete. Congrats Sheffield
  14. Bojangles
    Oxford is making a profit, but that isn't shutting him up!
  15. Bojangles
    Not really. The rumours are simply based on Kevin Boothby's illness (he's got leukemia), so they are presuming Towcester and Oxford will be in trouble. Reality is the plans for Suffolk Downs are still ongoing, so there's likely to be more tracks in Boothby's portfolio - not less. If the worst does happen, and he steps down, Mike Davis is likely to take over.
