And pics with Osborne Clark .. even if the stadium is built this guy has destroy speedway clubs and in my opinion and is just a total scumbag .. the club is ran so well but really is naïve when it comes to Clark and co . 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
charlie17 15 Posted January 15, 2020 Scary stuff indeed. When the project was first discussed we were promised the old stadium would not be knocked down until the new one was built. Whats the chance of the old one closing and then there becoming lots of “unforeseen problems and delays“. This project is doomed, surely the council is not falling for this rubbish?

If you read all the press statements and what the fans are saying it looks like the majority have fallen for it. As I said I am not sure how many many times someone can do the same scam only to be allowed to it Again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trouble is, I’m not sure how else the club could really play it, to be honest. I’m not sure if the club/promotion being publicly snotty about things towards Osbourne and his cronies would have got us anywhere fast. By at least appearing to be encouraging of Stadia UK and going along with the “this is going to be great” party line, it puts all the hype, focus and attention, where it rightly should be, on Stadia UK to come up with the goods. The club social media statement said it itself... “Over to the developers”. Its quite clearly on them if there’s any further bumps in the road on this. Everyone else is essentially a passenger in this saga. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't have to get publicly snooty but you also have to remember what this man and his cronies have done to speedway clubs in the uk no matter how the Swindon project turns out .. having photo's taken with con man is naïve and disrepectful for fans who have lost there club due to these people . From the moment this all started 5 years we have got overboard with every statement giving the people we are dealing with. this week has been the same again .
