Chuffed that Oxford Cheetahs & Chargers programmes finished joint third (with each other) in the Speedway Star awards. The Edinburgh progs were brilliant and deserved the top 2 places.
Never in it to win any awards; just to give fans a decent read. Thanks to all who contributed.

@RedcarBears, I've received an email to say your tickets are on sale for the first meeting, but I'm then unable to order them. Please could you advise - thanks!
@WolvesSpeedway, when will your tickets be available for the Bank Holiday Monday meeting? Having a weekend of speedway, involving booked hotels, etc, so need to get hold of 2 tickets sooner rather than later. Thank you.
@BanditsSpeedway, when will your tickets be available for your Bank Holiday Saturday meeting vs Scunthorpe? Having a weekend of speedway, involving booked hotels, etc, so need to get hold of 2 tickets sooner rather than later. Thank you.
@Lakesidelive@UprightSpeedway I think I've replied to this before, but my use of the same phrase is a coincidence - Scunny also race at the Raceway. If I subconsciously borrowed it, please take it as a compliment. PS Hope we see the Hammers back. As an Oxford fan, I feel your pain.
@speedwaystarmag Laguta has 14 points entering the semi-finals.ย His reward for taking a further two wins is another 6ย points.
Lindgren has 7 points entering the semis. His reward forย a second and a thirdย is another 9 points.
That's nuts!ย If it ain't broke, don't fix it with a sledgehammer!
Can you recall every second-halver, junior & trialist who rode at @OxfordSpeedway in the 70s & 80s? @Rob_Peasley name them all in the latest issue 99 of Backtrack.

Thank you very much to @BBCOxford for their exposure of the Oxford Speedway programme just now.
As I mentioned on the show, four issues have been published to date and the latest issue includes a brand new interview for Lawrence Hare.

OTD June 4, 1947: Today would have been the birthday of Bryn Williams, team manager of the 2005 championship-winning Oxford Academy. His many other roles in speedway included long-serving announcer on the Isle Of Wight. RIP Bryn, who passed away in 2016 (pic by Chris Baldwin).
