I suppose you think Marvyn Cox is German. Luke and brother Dec were both held up from racing in the first half of last season while the UK passport office weren't issuing any passports because all their staff were processing Ukrainian refugees -- it was much the same reason that delayed issue of a work permit/visa to Berwick's Jonas Knudsen. Many people on here may remember Frank Killeen, who was a rambunctious second-halver at Belle Vue and Wolverhampton in the 1980s -- Frank emigrated to Perth during the 1990s and his two sons were born there. Both hold UK nationality, and now have British passports. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That he’s not Australian? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I feel he is very much British I would say I’m British as well if it meant I could start my speedway career much easier on a 2.00 average than a 4.00 as well. Nothing against him just taking advantage of the system. I’d be doing the same. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bojangles Posted December 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2022 (edited) Oxford have announced ticket prices for next season.Cheetahs £20 adult in advance (under 16 free) £22 adult on the pay on the day (under 16 free) £18 last year, so a jump of £2 (or £4). Pay on the day is still an e-ticket (not at the gate), so not sure why it's more expensive.Chargers £12 adult in advance (under 16 free) £14 adult on the pay on the day (under 16 free) Same prices as last season (£2 extra for on the day purchase).Season passes Season tickets are £269. This includes 8x Cheetahs SGB Championship home matches, 2x Cheetahs BSN Series home matches, 1x Cheetahs Knockout Cup home match, 7x Chargers home fixtures.

So, £304 for an adult purchasing advance tickets and attending all meetings, or £340 if paying on the day. Season ticket therefore saves either £35 or £71.
