Tend to agree and those at Poole should start wondering the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 Poole stadium owned by Poole council, not these bunch of chancers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teaboy279 Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 Have been hearing about this prefab stadium for a while now, I can accept that a metal stadium could be bolted together quite quickly. But surely the longer you can have a speedway track laid the better it bed in? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed but the Council are looking to them to carry out the "improvements", so just be wary. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could open a company tomorrow called, for example, NewPooleStadium Ltd but it wouldn't mean I was going to do anything about building it.

Grachan Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 As half the stadium has apparently been built and is being stored in deepest Wales it would be nice to see a picture of it to back up the claim. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah well if I was you I wouldn't trust the alliance between The Council and Stadia UK whether you think it means 'jack' or not especially with talk of a proposed housing development in the pipeline....And some of you really don't get what this guy is all about either so don't say you haven't been warned....

Ommer Mon Posted April 28, 2017 Report Share Posted April 28, 2017 Not sure you can call Dudley Council inept. They are very good at what they do, which is preventing the Heathens getting anywhere near the Borough. Never understood why, Dudley has few redeeming features!

Edit article now available http://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/sport/15248161.Robins_stadium_owners_frustrated_by_delays/?ref=mr&lp=6 I'm just waiting for the story that they've decided not to build a stadium, but to build a Racino instead, which will of course take longer, need more planning, oh and then an additional financial backer.

Smallmead wasn't owned by GI either, neither was the land they were going to build the new stadium on. Whenever GI start implying they're going to improve or build a new stadium I'd be concerned. Not that they have form or anything!!! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What Wackie meant was that GL had a short term lease on the land from Reading Borough council- and that RBC also owned the land where the new stadium was planned for. At what stage prudential purchased Smallmead I`m not quite sure of the timescale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
