Speedy swindon pete 509 Posted December 28, 2016 Thought it from the first news that we would be getting a new stadium...I'll only ever be totally convinced once I'm in the stands at the new abbey, watching a race meeting. After years of good news, bad news, unknowns, confusion, contradictions and unanswered questions, I'm still of the same opinion years later and supposedly 6 months away from it being completed. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KevH 257 Posted December 30, 2016 (edited) No sign of any workmen with cups of tea in there hand with a fag hanging out of there mouths.I bet they are all foreigncan't get the workers now but you can get plenty of shirkers. Well if the workmen finish up with a stadium like other foreign workers in Torun built, I don't suppose there will be too many complaints Edited December 30, 2016 by KevH 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tellboy 3,662 Posted December 30, 2016 Well if the workmen finish up with a stadium like other foreign workers in Torun built, I don't suppose there will be too many complaints If all clubs in GB had huge bank balances i'm sure our stadiums would be just as good.I'm afraid though you get what you pay for.So don't expect to much.But at least it will be new.
