*JJ 510 Posted January 21, 2018 14 hours ago, brianbuck said: The one thing which did strike me whilst watching the programme however, was the sheer size of the land on which the present stadium is sited. Surely there would be room for a housing estate AND a smaller replacement stadium (as has been promised, although still not delivered), at Swindon? I am just wondering whether this idea could be floated as a possible way of breaking the impasse with Brandon Estates? I suspect that if this were agreed, the same thing would happen: plenty of promises, but no stadium. Or, if by some oversight, a track were built, some of the house buyers would complain about noise and have the track closed down! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gemini 4,894 Posted January 21, 2018 Yes, it will be interesting to see if Swindon's new stadium ever materialises. Somehow I doubt it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ancient mariner 540 Posted January 28, 2018 Did anyone else read the article in todays Mail on Sunday (page 75)? Sadly far too late to help Brandon, but might just ring an alarm bell somewhere and save a speedway track from extinction Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
