SPEEDWAY 1

OXFORD promoter Aaron Lanney has refuted speculation that he is planning to make further team changes in the near future.

Lanney said: ''I''ve read it on various forums and heard rumours, but let me squash such notions here and now.

''I feel that we''ve turned something of a corner and our season is really beginning to take off, so changes are not necessary at this stage.''

SPEEDWAY 2

WORKINGTON reserve Lee Derbsyhire was taken to hospital with a suspected compound leg fracture after a crash at Sheffield on Thursday.

Derbyshire fell during Heat 2 and early reports indicate that he has a broken leg in two places.

Comets co-promoter Denise Drury said: ''It''s terrible news for all of us, especially as Lee was also in the middle of his University exams.''
