  1. I haven't been back for a few months, but it had very little on it when we left. It was supposed to be used for retail development. But it's laid empty for years since they closed the factory. It's right on the A45 which has direct links to the A46, M40 and M6 etc. Yes, it's the same site and the old Ryton plant. I believe it's under Rugby Council, but not sure ? Sandhu, I believe was refused planning when he first bought Brandon, but as far as I am aware it was to revamp the stadium? He has admitted since, in 2010, that it was his intention to build houses on the site. I have no idea if he had applied for planning for houses or not since 2004, but I suspect that his attempt to sell the stadium and land is because he was hitting a brick wall with the council? I lived in a neighbouring village for 12 years , I know how influential the council is!!!!..Most of them live in or around Brandon and the surrounding villages.....
  2. I can just see them bulldozing half of Binley/ Brandon woods and widening the road so thy can accommodate a football stadium LOL... Sandhu couldn't get planning to revamp the stadium, let alone build houses FFS! Never in a million years!
  3. Brilliant win for Darcy . I was doing some Nigel and Kelvin woahing big time last night He won me a little bit of cash too.. Definitely the best series yet!
  4. Is orion the Swindon version of Starman?
  5. Did you get a confirmation email for your reservation. I got a reference number, but but no email? :/
  6. The holiday inn Cardiff city centre is not on the list of discounted hotels!!
  7. Tickets bought! Try this link psycho3a, it worked ok for me http://speedwaygp.seetickets.com/tour/2014-british-fim-speedway-grand-prix/?src=TW1
  8. As always it was a brilliant weekend. Catching up with old pals with the exception of one or two Yeh, the track was poor and Tai crashing out made the atmosphere go flat, but when I watched it back yesterday when we got home, I thought it looked like a good meeting, better than it seemed when we were there! The presentation was superb, Scott and Sophie were fab..Good interviews with the injection of humour..Loved it! I don't really see the point in banging on and on about the track and It won't stop us going back next year. Why? Because Cardiff is about so much more than just the meeting and to be fair there have been some good tracks in recent years.. See ya next year Edit..Tickets bought and Hotel booked for next year ..woohoo
  9. Ha ha, good! That's some justice for all the lip you give out
  10. I've personally never had a problem with them. We got our tickets three months ago.
  11. You can buy non flammable ones at the entrance to the fair at he rugby club on the Saturday..
  12. I seem to recall him saying something on twitter about growing it for a laugh..Maybe he's trying to emulate Peter Adams Agree with you about the tattoo though and those holes in his ears! ..Each to their own, but I think it spoils his appearance ( my god I sound like my mum, very worrying)...
  13. Do people actually believe that Coventry Stadium, would be a) a viable option for a football club b ) that they'd ever get planning? Really? Honestly? LOL Seems to me, that there is as much BS spoken on that forum, as there is here! Never in a million years.. Yours faithfully Hiacynth..
  14. Have we had anything official about who is replacing Darcy, is it Ales Dryml?
  15. If it was invented in Glasgow, surely it would be in batter?
  16. Post 77 the Chris Harris Wild card thread - Philip Rising say's "IT will be forthcoming, certainly in SS next week after we have caught up with BSI boss Paul Bellamy in Gothenburg. My information is that the BSPA were informed that the British Final would no longer be a stepping stone to Cardiff some time ago. "
