dump that clutch Posted February 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 it doesn't matter who brings the most to the Abbey..... ..... you are all welcome Get yer backsides down here (or up here coming from Poole) and see the title winning Roobins take the trophy into the 'new' Abbey in 2017. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 it doesn't matter who brings the most to the Abbey.......... you are all welcome Unfortunately that's not true. Dogs aren't even allowed to be in the car park now let alone enter the stadium. Used to love our trips to Swindon, staying in a Travel Lodge for a couple of days. Cotswolds Wildlife Park on Wednesday , up to the top of the Uffington White Horse on Thursday to wear the dogs out before Speedway. No more.

Cotswolds Wildlife Park on Wednesday , up to the top of the Uffington White Horse on Thursday to wear the dogs out before Speedway. No more. How utterly ridiculous. Why on earth haven't you been allowed in with your dogs? Mind you the car park geezers are like the friggin gustapo. Amazing how a little power goes to some people's heads! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gem if i were you i would ring the stadium and get conformation, then if the car park hitlers say no then you can quote them differently. Dogs are more than welcome at Poole, so long as they are on a lead. Edited February 4, 2016 by Starman2006 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 You've got more chance of Stevebrum riding for you than Emil. let me confirm that Coventry have more chance of signing Emil than me! Enough to cover their costs? Let me know how you get to see clubs' profit and loss accounts......... What's that to do with the club's profits and losses? The comment I replied to (even tho it was a tongue in cheek comment) was that top riders didn't bring more people thru the turnstiles which Emil proved the opposite with crowds not seen since the play offs - points made by promoters who Coventry travelled to at the time. Promoters make money most of the time. I don't need to see their accounts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They used to allow dogs in and I have no idea why they have changed their minds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They used to allow dogs in and I have no idea why they have changed their minds. I don't know why they changed their minds either. We knew dogs weren't allowed in the stadium but as they were shattered from running around all afternoon they would be quite happy to go to sleep in the car, which they've done many times before. We paid the fee and the 2 stewards made a fuss of them, but then got stopped at the next Fort Knox base and told we weren't allowed to park the car with them in but could go to a lay by up the road. No way were we going to leave them somewhere out of sight. Anyway all irrelevant now because how things are these days with dogs being stolen I'd never leave them in a car with the windows open even though the alarm would be on.

One phone call to the stadium was all it took to get my misses in, as long I keep her on a lead of course!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted February 6, 2016 Report Share Posted February 6, 2016 It would still be worth a phone call to the stadium just in case the car park mafiosa are using their own 'initiative'?! I'm sure every time I've been to the Abbey - and other stadia too - there have been quite a few dogs around!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
