Swindon End Of Era Meeting.
Reliant Robin replied to a4poster's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
The build is down as a 4 and a half month project. If it takes 6 months then as I understand Swindon are willing to commence their home fixture in Mid May and have more continuity in fixtures. The building part is modular....a completely different project type to Belle Vue and can go up a lot quicker. -

Reliant Robin replied to a4poster's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I'm led to believe that the grandstand and buildings will be modular in which case a 4 month build is not out of the question. 5 months to complete a 4 month project with Christmas & New Year etc thrown into the mix would still be tight though! And this But I guess whatever happens it's still farewell to the Abbey....lets hope it is given a good send off -

That's a fair point....which would also back up that it makes no sense to want to cash in the assets as was being suggested -
A poor night at the office last night for the Robins....and I think we're lucky it's only 14 points! Would have been a bigger tally to claw back had the rain not come down. A massive task ahead, but not an impossible one....certainly cannot afford any passengers next Monday and need to hit them early. If we can get the deficit down to about 6 after 3 or 4 heats then it's anybody's game.

This being the same Terry Russell who cleared a six figure debt towards the end of the 2013 Season?! Imagine that's more than cashing in the assets would be worth! If he'd wanted a convenient get out clause then it would have been cheaper to let the Club go under -
Coventry V Poole Elsf 1
Reliant Robin replied to Red Panda's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
They're damned if they do and damned if they don't. Meeting goes ahead in wet weather = wouldn't be on if Sky weren't there, they're putting riders at risk.... Meeting cancelled on forecast = Sky only interested if perfect conditions Funny old World we live in -

Reliant Robin replied to Grachan's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
"with the exception of injury" was in the post I was replying to. So if he's back from injury and has not been replaced in the meantime then I guess so Only one Danish fixture on that night....Slangerup v Grindsted....so no Swindon or Cov riders affected as far as I can see -

Belle Vue -v- Swindon Monday 17th August
Reliant Robin replied to Phil The Ace's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
You replied to a comment about what common sense says....so following that trail my reply is what common sense would suggest...not what actually happened. I thought it was just last night's referee who couldn't keep up with proceedings.
