Speedway has dabbled with betting companies in the past and nothing has ever really come from it, which is a shame as it looks to be a huge untapped cash cow 🐄 for the sport and are effectively the modern day equivalent to tobacco companies, you only have to look at most other sports who have obscure betting companies plastered all over their clothing etc. Victor Chandler used to sponsor Coventry, I'm pretty sure there was some on course betting at a few tracks back in the noughties and Bet365 showed meetings (similar to dog meetings) for a while. Not sure why it didn't work as you'd think it would be a humane alternative to the doggies 🐕

Good for Oxford though 🎰

Lacks a big hitter ..Janowski can be a bit and miss at times ..Ok team but not going to win the prem with that team ...

I suppose it's a matter of how well a team is doing over the second "half" of the season, that counts.

Had the impression Oxford threw in the towel last year especially after Leicester got into gear. Perhaps this year, they're more oriented towards having scope for beefing up the team later-on. I can see some big away defeats, early doors.

We've had on course betting at Oxford Speedway (at the Championship Pairs). Don't think it wax a great sucess as they don't seem to have returned.

I think the betting industry's problem with Speedway is they don't like events that can be easily fixed.
