I'd rather that than no speedway at Swindon, or anywhere else for that matter. Once a club shuts, it usually stays shut. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed, do not give a toss about the stands or back straight bog or the bloody awful food for sale. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mafiarule 12 Posted October 30, 2018 Swindon has never been the same since Peter toogood was in charge. Bring back the characters and premier league racing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bring back the characters and premier league racing Good days, but that league isn't the same now either. Personally glad and grateful to have had the chance to watch the likes of Adams, Zagar, Richardson, Ward, Doyle, Janowski and countless other top notch riders wearing Robins colours since then.

Bring back the characters and premier league racing I hated Premier League at Swindon. On the few occasions I went, the crowds were tiny and they had the most irritating way of putting junior race every 4 races, which totally ruined the flow of the meeting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,424 Posted October 30, 2018 Good news that the club are finally getting the new track marked out and work started. The current track has produced diabolical racing in recent seasons. A new 300 metre track is needed with the right shape. Hope they don’t do a Leicester and put in something just as bad. Finger crossed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m pretty certain the back straight bogs will be incorporated into the new look stadium Orlovski. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously picked wrong meeting team was a team. Characters and time for the fans. Remember Edinburgh being rained off how did the spend there evening. Making a announced trip to the hotel where the fans were staying to mix with the fans . Can't ever see that happening these days.bring back premier league or championship any day of week.

Argos 262 Posted October 31, 2018 You would have thought the Swindon Promoters would have put out a Press Photo out, Just to show there fans that progress is being made, very strange Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cityrebel 2,960 Posted October 31, 2018 Anyone can stick a few pegs in the ground. It would be nice to have some photographic evidence of the work actually starting. It's the least the Swindon fans deserve. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
