The owners of the stadium would be my guess, we rent it from them & their main income is the dogs. It’s the main reason we can’t race many Wednesday’s, the bags is on. Im bored of arguing as I agree that the track is dog crap & it’s a poor advert, something needs to be done. Edited July 23, 2018 by hyabb17 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
moxey63 1,785 Posted July 23, 2018 (edited) The way it's going, the Swindon fans who couldn't go tonight because of the change of race nights will still be able to catch the end of the fixture on Thursday. Edited July 23, 2018 by moxey63 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When you get an 'advert' for the Sport like you had on Saturday it must have brought a few extra people to the Stadium or maybe tuned in to watch on BT... They possibly would have thought "I'll give this another go"..... Bet they regret it now... I do sometimes think that if those in charge of the Sport tried to shoot themselves in the foot they would miss... (Just watching heat 8 and the rider in the Brown helmet is leading the rider in the Brown helmet, from the rider in the Brown helmet who is well in front of the man bringing up the rear in the Brown helmet)..

What comments that ? I was mearly stating clearly there are a lot of stay away Swindon fans now, and thats how he came across. Now many of you are moaning, and yes looking at the track its pretty dire. Now perhaps somebody preferably from Swindon could tell me in plain English, do you have Dogs on a monday afternoon ? Because if you dont, that track apart from being watered regulary during the day in between grading should have been drowned at 4.30.. Looking at the dust it looks like you have the same junk that several other tracks got and took off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
