Just asking I Don't know for sure myself but people on facebook groups etc tend to think it's well over 250 thus far ..I have friend in the council who thinks that is about right as well .let's be honest it's hardly a shock if thou's figures are correct . What Swindon fans should have done for a laugh is asked to see the already built stadium when Gi said it was built in Port Talbot ..I wonder what they done with that now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DC2 11,150 Posted August 2, 2018 (edited) Thanks, Matt. Have the developers complied with those conditions? If not, the Council should have sought an injunction preventing the occupation of more than 200 houses. And potential buyers could have been put on notice in the local search. The Council has done that before, regarding the construction of a footbridge across Thamesdown Drive. Edited August 2, 2018 by DC2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ReadingRacer2017 159 Posted August 2, 2018 (edited) Rider Report - August 2018 Nick Morris Has failed to deliver as a number one, his average dropping below 8 as a result. Home form has been decent until recently, away form has been below what is expected. 2018 Grade • 6/10 Keep for 2019 • ❌ David Bellego Can look unbeatable one meeting and awful the next. Still a quality rider at Abbey Stadium but too unpredictable away. 2018 Grade • 5/10 Keep for 2019 • ❌ Adam Ellis Such a different rider to the one that started 2018 in Robins colours. Faster and more mature, I predict big things for Adam. 2018 Grade • 8/10 Keep for 2019 • ✔️ Tobiasz Musielak Started the season as a heatleader and did pretty well considering. Always looking for the pass and so stylish on the bike, will only get better. 2018 Grade • 7/10 Keep for 2019 • ✔️ Troy Batchelor Has improved his starting average greatly and proved all the doubters wrong on and off the track, only one bad meeting in 2018. 2018 Grade • 9/10 Keep for 2019 • ✔️ Zach Wajtknecht This boy has the potential to be the next Lee Richardson, he can out-gate the best. Doesn’t get enough recognition but is happy to go under the radar. 2018 Grade • 8/10 Keep for 2019 • ✔️ Jack Smith Out of his depth but a good gater, just needs faster machinery and few more years in Championship. Could definitely see him becoming a Robin again in the future. 2018 Grade • 4/10 Keep for 2019 - ❌ Edited August 2, 2018 by ReadingRacer2017 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
