BartoszZmarzlikFan 491 Posted August 6, 2021 Swindon are never coming back and the promotion know it imo. False hope left, right and centre I'm afraid to say. Think Swindon won't be the last club to vanish after this season. Birmingham & Newcastle could very well join them imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
old bob at herne bay 828 Posted August 6, 2021 To be honest not sure why this thread is still in the "SGB Premiership " folder. They are definitely not active in this years SGB Premiership, nor likely to be active in the future. Shouldnt it be moved to the "Years gone by" folder ?

frigbo 518 Posted August 7, 2021 Greyhounds re-opening to the public 5 days a week from August 16th. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The fact that the stadium owners have been spending money on the re-shaping of the greyhound track would suggest that they don't have any immediate plans to knock the place down for housing. That doesn't guarantee the speedway will return of course.Time will tell. Edited August 7, 2021 by Dave Jones 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I really don't think that Alun Rossiter or Lee Kilby know anymore than the rest of us as neither has a penny piece invested in the project. Only Terry Russell will have contact with Stadia UK / Gaming International or Clarke Osbourne to obtain infomation or any idea of what is going on & if he chooses to tell his employees its all moving forward then that is the message they tell. But in all honesty its going nowhere & will not be coming back to this venue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
old bob at herne bay 828 Posted August 7, 2021 Yes agree with you they should not be in the Premiership section .... not active in the 2021 PL. They are correctly in the Championship folder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
