Unbelieveable really. Really god most Robins fans have trusted people and in LIFE in general.I believe the Robins are finished, i was deluded thinking that things would work out in my heart wanted things to pan out well .I can’t see it now houses to be built on the Abbey soon it will be demolished when it suits them.

Unbelieveable really. What posts are you on about ? unbelieveable was your stupid gloating the moment you knew a digger in the car park you could not even wait a day to start giving stick to the people who never thought a stadium will be built ... What a idiot you look now. All Swindon fans want them to race again but don't want the total bull that is fed to them .

Orion, for me i am not not to worried about the new stadium yet to not run again( no Covid excuses says it all).Not surprised they could still run in the old stadium and be viable 1, 200 plus most meetings think that is it end of angry upset gutted. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think most fans were never to worried about a new stadium and were more than happy to stay in the old one . Of course a new Stadium looked like it would secure a long time future for the sport in the town but of course Gam int have plotted, hoodwinked and conned every one as they do every time useing the building of the New Stadium to stop Swindon from running hoping to kill the club off so they can knock the old Stadium down with no one caring enough anymore to stop them . As i said already said its matter of time before the work will stop for some reason stopping us from running in 2023 as well Edited October 6, 2021 by orion 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big plans , Photo's with MP'S with Rosco , Clarke . arm and arm at council meetings etc etc .... Very hard not to think it would happen seeing how big the dream they were selling Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

steve roberts 9,242 Posted October 6, 2021 Having spent many happy evenings at Blunsden I think that it's an absolute disgrace the way Swindon fans have been toed along...and that's from an Oxford fan the enemy down the road! 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it is, how would that affect the Eurosport contract, as they don't seem interested in covering Championship meetings. It's a lever for CVS to get a "greater" share of the TV money to stay in the 6 team league, he's covering all his bases and good luck to him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
