  1. Swindon Council lead Jim Robbins has previously stated he will not support a change of use. Let's see if he backs his words up!
  2. They are concerned about legal ramifications. Russell losing the licence, should help them now be more open.
  3. I agree, the response from fans, media and speedway management has been very muted! In fact, we've rolled over and had our bellies tickled! Russell has tied the other managers down with NDA's and the local media are only now starting to delve under the covers. Five years on, most fans have drifted off to other things. The BSPL and Phil Morris have both been made aware of what the situation is and have done diddly squat about it.
  4. I think you need to see the 'completed stadium' and planning conditions at Swindon before spouting such rubbish.
  5. Swindon Speedway Update We have instigated a formal process with the landowner and developer to determine whether breaches have taken place.. The importance of getting the enforcement process legally correct cannot be over stated. Breaches of planning can be a criminal issue and whilst investigations are taking place there is limited information that can be put into the public domain so as not to prejudice the case. I can only stress how complex the planning history is on this site. Some of the development appears to have been implemented under one consent and some under another – and there are several. This complexity has raised a number of legal technicalities. Update this evening from the lead of Swindon Council
  6. These were provided by a local journalist who is doing some digging into the position of the planning conditions. They're so vague, there's no way SBC could effectively challenge whether they're met or not.
  7. https://wwosbackup.proboards.com/thread/1423/1962-world-final-wembley-stadium
  8. Stefan Danno for me. I'm barely past being a foetus
  9. Sadly, Gordon Kennett needs to come off the list.
  10. Sad news on social media that former Coventry, Sheffield and Halifax heat leader Rick France has passed away.
  11. Can't wait to see the tactical genius moves of Sudden Sam....
  12. I can see this being an inconsistent side. Some weeks they might all click, but others they'll get a stuffing through lack of heat winners.
  13. I get that. But prime development land and a 'promise' from Poole Motorsports will tempt the council pocket...
  14. Sorry guys, seems you're next on that piece of work's hitlist
  15. Maybe this is finally the stadium Osborne promised for Reading. Two birds with one stone.. Man's a genius I just hope the BSPL have taken the Robins' licence off ice and removed Russell from any control - but somehow i doubt it!
  16. So what position is the Swindon licence now in after the Conference?
