Vicar Posted November 27, 2023 Report Share Posted November 27, 2023 Hello, Does anyone knows was the results of match Birmingham - Oxford in Britannia Shield 1957? I only found info that it was abandoned after 2 heats with results 8-4. However in table I see both teams have all matches ridden. So what was the final score?

The match was not re-staged and in the final league table Birmingham and Oxford should be shown as only competing in 7 matches each - the match points were not awarded.

BL65 Posted November 30, 2023 Report Share Posted November 30, 2023 The only way the table could be correct is if the match had been awarded to Oxford. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vicar Posted November 30, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2023 (edited) No, becasue if it would be awarded to Oxford, Oxford would have 5 wins Edited November 30, 2023 by Vicar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want to spam with new thread. Britannia Shield match Belle Vue - Ipswich in 1958 was abandoned with the score 34:26. I believe result didn't stand and match was never restaged?
