Another year then go's by and people lose even more interest before they find another reason next year . Postpone the build then and run at the Abbey in 2022..

steve roberts 9,242 Posted September 29, 2021 I started this thread back in 2015 but I've lost track as to why there was a need to re-locate the stadium? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Racin Jason 72 1,275 Posted October 6, 2021 How come it’s open 5 days a week during construction for greyhound racing yet speedway can’t return til building is completed. Why can’t the stadium be closed on the back straight while the new stand is erected. Once that is up and running then you could close the other half of the stadium and demolish the old stand. it’s not difficult 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

auntie doris 2,339 Posted October 6, 2021 (edited) Fans will lose interest if closed for another year..not good news for those fanatical Robins fans. Speedway is going down the pan in this country, clubs folding, fan numbers down Just Cardiff GP for me next year.
