CHEETAHS POSTPONE POOLE CLASH

OXFORD have postponed their scheduled Cab Direct Championship clash with Poole on Wednesday due to England’s football World Cup progression.

With the Three Lions topping their group, the Round of 32 fixture against DR Congo takes place at 5pm on the same day, with the potential to extend into the time when speedway would be running.

A Cheetahs statement said: “As a patriotic club, the management know that many fans, riders and volunteers will want to support their country in the competition, which is why they have made this decision.

“They thank the Poole promotion for their cooperation and agreement with this decision.”
