That said well done as it’s a good fit for all. I think Stefan was very unlucky he was going really well until his unfortunate injury and would not have been changed. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Klindt has done a lot better than Stefan would have, but there was no luck involved in him getting injured. Poole have gained by his injury, but It happened and Poole covered very well. Think they could of had a collection for him though. But that's a different thread. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve0 5,517 Posted August 18, 2018 With the situation with the houses around the stadium, I honestly believe that the last ever meeting for the Swindon Robins will be the home fixture against BV in early September. i certainly hope that I am wrong but I really cannot see a solution for the houses that back straight onto the pits and feel it will come to a head over the winter.

The thing that worries me are the houses being built behind the back straight. Wasn't this where the new pits are supposed to be going? Tomlinson told my mate that there is no legal agreement in place for it yet and SBC want this to make sure it happens. We all know the end is near. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We all know the end is near. The pits are going to be at the opposite end to where they are now. I have not seen any houses being built behind the back straight, if you mean the area between the back straight and Lady Lane, that is where one of the present and future car parks are.

The pits will be next to the main stand before the entrance to bend one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The pits will be next to the main stand before the entrance to bend one. I wasn't very clear when I said about the houses being built on the back straight. What I meant was the houses were being built on the other side of the road. If the new pits were somewhere near the current back straight car park then surely the people that buy the houses will be complaining. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Too much has gone through for a happy ending at the Abbey, toothless twats letting everything happen like it has. I'll publicly come on here and apologise if this new stadium does indeed happen. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agree, best to park elsewhere and save the parking charge as well as trying to find a space in the limited car parks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A ORLOV 8,628 Posted August 18, 2018 I understand that the Stadium is proposing using the park and ride at Groundwell, and they mentioned for really big events they want people to park in the town centre and get the bus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
