Biffa Posted September 20, 2023 Report Share Posted September 20, 2023 There must be some BSPL pressure to get this meeting done as I can’t believe anyone would agree to this fixture with all the above riders missing. Feel sorry for the Oxford fans paying to watch this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yearbyred Posted September 20, 2023 Report Share Posted September 20, 2023 I can’t see may Bears fans bothering with the stream in the circumstances.

magnus Posted September 20, 2023 Report Share Posted September 20, 2023 Bit of a quandary for Oxford! Will Jenkins and Atkins ride in the NDLRC and take a ban? Or will the powers off speedway do something to alleviate it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilly Posted September 20, 2023 Report Share Posted September 20, 2023 I'd be amazed if Jenkins and Atkins don't line up for the Cheetahs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szkocjasid Posted September 20, 2023 Report Share Posted September 20, 2023 (edited) Where has the talk of a 1 match ban being given to Jenkins & Atkins come from? I've never heard of that rule? I'm sure in previous seasons the NLRC is the only event that gets priority over the higher leagues, but I kinda expect to see Jenkins & Atkins racing for Oxford, with Kinsley & Killeen / Scott racing in the NLRC. Even if that's not a rule Edited September 20, 2023 by szkocjasid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellers101 Posted September 20, 2023 Report Share Posted September 20, 2023 Riss also scheduled to be riding in the long track nations meeting on the 24th. If all these riders are missing I can't get my head around why it's taking place on this date or why anyone is expected to pay £20 to watch it.

Expand On CLRC 15.8.1 makes it clear that it is top riders by MA . No discretion. For the NDLRC the rules couldn't be more explicit, and I quote verbatim: 15.9 NDL RIDERS CHAMPIONSHIP 015.9.1 Qualifying Criteria To be confirmed I had a bit of a go at BSSPL about this in my programme notes for Oxford v Redcar - in hindsight I think I should have been ruder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
