A ORLOV 8,628 Posted September 18, 2016 Just need Auntie Doris or anyone who passes the stadium to report on any progress of the building of the speedway track preferably with photos. Not too fussed about the stadium itself, the site can be seen from the road leading to the present stadium from the traffic lights. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

damosuzuki 696 Posted September 19, 2016 Must admit this is how I feel about GI, I won't trust anything until I see it with my own eyes. Can guarantee it will take at least a couple of years if it ever does get built. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A ORLOV 8,628 Posted September 19, 2016 (edited) Must admit this is how I feel about GI, I won't trust anything until I see it with my own eyes. Can guarantee it will take at least a couple of years if it ever does get built. I am also wary of GI which is why I have asked for any progress of the speedway track seen by anyone passing to be posted on here.

John Leslie 3,213 Posted September 19, 2016 I'm also a bit wary of trusting GI, but Chris Harris must be confident that the new stadium will be built Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MattK 3,447 Posted October 1, 2016 I do find it strange how little detail i included in the planning permission. As other have stated, there is nothing about the size of the proposed track and I can't see to find anything about the elevation or capacity of any of the new stands.

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted October 1, 2016 Where are the plans for the actual stadium, or the artists impression? Seen a plan showing where it will be but what will it look like? Hopefully not grass banks and a couple of portacabins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cityrebel 2,960 Posted October 1, 2016 It can't be too basic a stadium if the dogs are going to run there. Some punters want to be wined and dined while they watch the racing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grass banks and a couple of portacabins at Blundon and Brandon will do very nicely it they mean speedway can continue at those two venues 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
