The White Knight 9,039 Posted June 4, 2015 But what happened to the 2013 SWC eh? Pah! I'll believe it when I see it. (I did buy six tickets for the opening night just in case, lol!) I'm glad you put that bit. I was about to go off on a rant. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rumour has it that a certain Mr Blatter wad involved in the allocation of that meeting so it is now going out to fresh bids and likely to be held at the NSS in 2016. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

topsoil 2,498 Posted June 4, 2015 Have I entered some sort of parallel universe. Wallyford!!! Small town outside Edinburgh, the east coast mainline railway line runs though it. The name usually gets a giggle from passengers who have never heard of it before. From what I can remember it was a run down old greyhound track. All that remains these days is the steel structure of a grandstand in the middle of a field. whats that then i usually lleave the car at Wallyford when i get the train into Edinburgh was it a dog track From what i can remember it was a very run down old greyhound track.

Bruiser McHuge 589 Posted June 6, 2015 Selling tickets for a fixed night for its opening is certainly an incentive to get it finished on time !.......especially when lots of other stadiums have to delay their official opening.. But it's got about 9 months to go...the stands are going up....there will be a longish spell of good weather now ....I'm convinced it will be open for its advertised date...but I'm not sure I'd have been selling tickets for it just yet !

customhouseregular 1,651 Posted June 6, 2015 Unpredictable weather for mid-March too. 16,000 shivering fans in Manchester on a cold wet March night...what fun!. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ouch 1,191 Posted June 6, 2015 Should opened on June 1st when the weathers better. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bruiser McHuge 589 Posted June 6, 2015 Should opened on June 1st when the weathers better. They couldn't start next season on June 1st though....so that date would be useless if they want the Aces to ride there next season... ...I've no.problems with the opening date..if the Aces are going to leave Kirky Lane and ride at the new stadium next season then it really has to be ready for March...talk of June is a waste of time.....fingers crossed for a good summer and mild winter and no delays Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
