hagonshocker 1,956 Posted May 22, 2017 So pleasing that this topic is giving some a little chuckle, have heard good things regarding the drainage issues where Swindon Borough Planning Dept have been authorising the developers to make alterations which should be adhered to at some point so Conlon can resume there Groundworks there ...finally seems that Stadia UK do want this thing built Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted June 1, 2017 Got problems with the drains is the latest one. That should hold things up until 2019 at least. Then they will discover a rare moss on the pile of rubble which has some form of protection. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Midland Red 2,383 Posted July 10, 2017 This was posted on the Oxford thread today Swindon are already desperate for dogs, they lost big kennels when Towcester opened....if anybody thinks that a new stadium will be built in Swindon any time soon then they need a reality check!

Odds On 373 Posted July 10, 2017 (edited) lets all be 100% honest here, does anyone see a new stadium being built? Edited July 10, 2017 by Odds On Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

waytogo28 2,054 Posted July 10, 2017 lets all be 100% honest here, does anyone see a new stadium being built? There never was a chance of a new stadium being built. Another venue lost to speedway. Five years on Poole V Belle Vue will be the only UK match in a very contracted elite league ( providing Poole have re-layed their track by that time ). They will race Home and Away on alternate weeks and fans elsewhere can watch speedway via Pay Per View. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fromafar 10,333 Posted July 10, 2017 lets all be 100% honest here, does anyone see a new stadium being built?If it doesn't happen, there will be parts to pick up from a scrapyard if we believe it is lying somewhere just to be bolted together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waytogo28 2,054 Posted July 10, 2017 Can't see the new drains being ready until the end of 2018 ( at the rate the project has gone so far ) so maybe, just maybe a glimmer of a light re the middle of 2019 for the inaugural meeting. Time for two more Abbey Farewells. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vince 9,454 Posted July 10, 2017 Let's hope it's like Belle Vue which seemed just as unlikely to ever happen for a while Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And even though it will only be a two team league, both teams will still be full of bloody guests!!😀 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel Smith 5,645 Posted July 10, 2017 But Gaming International have already purchased the £20k worth of cut and shut portacabins. So Swindon has to be going ahead, oh, hang on............ A few grand losses against a few £100k housing profits, hmmmm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
