Yet again depends what they based there break even figure on and remember we knew about covid etc before the start of the season ... Its hard to figure out how a team after 16weeks can be so deep in debt . It pretty clear it's been poorly ran and has give it's self no wiggle room

Not really .. you pay what you can and cut you cloth to that level ...if your going to get 500 fans each week your team should reflect that just like any other sport and if you come near the bottom so be it . Eastbourne quite clearly put a shocking Business plan together based on silly numbers coming to watch

Sometimes to much is made of the state of uk speedway for the problems clubs face .... Should Eastbourne really be in this much trouble due to one or two bad crowds ? Who knows what go's on behind closed doors and if all funds etc have gone back into the club ...sometimes its just down to poor people who run the club

Dont agree 90 % will never go again and the other 10 % every now and again ....What forum members on here from Newport ,Reading .Cov or Oxford still post on here and went to Swindon each week ? i made friends with a quite a few from my time on here and none go on a regular basis most not at all and some may go to cardiff and take in the odd match . If Swindon close and that is likely none of are group will go elsewhere each week

People are saying Kennett was taken sick after his second covid jab .. it that what the crowd were told ?

One of the biggest myths in speedway that fans of closed clubs they go to watch or support other teams ... hardly anyone from Reading ,Oxford ,Newport or Cov have ever gone to Swindon each week Sadly when Your club Closes down and that might happen at Swindon you give up and you don't go again

They were warned by a lot of fans about Gaming internationals proven behaviour but failed to listen the local Mp pretends to be the fans freind but really does not give a rat ass ... it wont be long before he tells them that he is looking for a new site etc what of course he wont be . The local press have been the worst .. they really should have been reporting on the timeline of lies and taking Gaming to task but have done nothing . As it stands most of the houses have been built and gaming can just wait Swindon out making them close

Glug , Glug , Glug

Nothing .. all gone into hiding

Why would he want to lower his average ? this is his only job .. Do people think before they put stuff down ?

Enough is Enough JC... call it a day to many crashes ,it's just not worth it .

Sad to see Crump like this ..never go back they say

New team Manager is an Estate Agent ... given speedway current problems in selling off tracks for housing its quite ironic

its sad state .. the worst thing is that there is no update from the club on why yet again no work has started .. surely pressure and questions should be asked and then relayed back to the fans . Rather than blaming fans for being negative , how about a statement saying we are fed up with the developers and can no longer trust in anything they say about the building of the stadium .. To me we are going down without a fight .. this just lets hope its gets built attitude is not working . As for the local mp he's been as much use as an ashtray on a speedway bike .

Yes .. NO

Spot on post .. we give up on speedway to makes lots of money .. nothing wrong with that so no need for the bull crap .

Great deal for the Hancocks .. heavy heart hardly

We were told that the Stadium work would start in early summer .... what do people class as early summer ? maybe it depends on the weather

No one wants or needs your support ... Anti Greyhounds Racing group wont carry any weight or support if swindon ever needed a new site to race speedway another fact that is lost on you .. / Your sole aim is stop Greyhound racing and if means the speedway closing down as well so be it ...if you had a choice between having Greyhounds and Speedway running together or the Stadium being close down so Greyhound racing stopped and speedway was no more you would choose the latter so dont make out your any friend of speedway .

You came on the forum to latch on to speedway as you had little support for what you were doing .. you hardly had enough people to hold up a banner outside the Abbey .Why would any speedway fans need to work together with you as stopping dogs would mean the Abbey would be less likely to reopen .You bring nothing to the table in terms of helping speedway return I would say it was more telling that someone who says they are not going to reply to someone does so in there next post ... bet you eat a bacon sandwich when no ones looking

i will choose what people or what posts i reply to on a public forum, i don't get told by saps like you ..if you don't like people replying to you then don't post in the first place, its not hard to follow even for you . The ironic thing is that she has reply to me of course .. hard to make these things up

Be better if did not come on a speedway forum..you naive views are zero understanding of Speedway and Greyhounds is only likely to help close the staduim down.Just go back and join the rest of those nutters who you hang around with..

As you have been told many times in the past speedway clubs all makes losses and that includes Swindon .Not sure you quite understand that speedway is on the decline in the uk. You be told these facts a million times but still it wont sink it..

Can''t understand the attitude from the club , Why have a go at the fans about being cynical . Can you really blame the Fans for being like that after all the false promises they been told .

The answer to that is no ...
