Wackie Posted October 11, 2016 Report Share Posted October 11, 2016 They forecasted in that in the Daily Mail for the last 5 years . Must be true, the Express are reporting it too now! Genuinly hope that Swindon do get their new stadium & track, would be nice for GI to actually build one of these nice new stadiums they've promised so often in the past. The constant delays do have an ominus feeling though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A ORLOV Posted October 15, 2016 Report Share Posted October 15, 2016 (edited) Saw a big pile of soil at the end of the carpark. A large pile of soil was moved there from the housing estate being built at the start of this year, but moles might have added to it.

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted October 15, 2016 Report Share Posted October 15, 2016 Most statements about the development seem to have been a big pile of 'soil' so far. (unfortunately) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ovalman Posted October 16, 2016 Report Share Posted October 16, 2016 Did you not see a bloke digging out the foundations with a shovel I know they are trying to save money but one bloke with a shovel. Perhaps he gave up and went home. Hopefully some Roman Celtic and Saxon remains/artefacts will be discovered. I am thinking of going up there with me pickaxe and metal detector. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 17, 2016 Report Share Posted October 17, 2016 (edited) If the new Swindon stadium is not built in time for the start of the 2017 season, is there a provision for the continued use of the present arena until it is ready? I did scroll back to see if this query had been previously asked and answered but could not trace any reference. Thank you.

They are not supposed to knock down the existing one till the new one is up and running, so the Council need to start getting tough and stop the building of any more new houses until there is a start on the stadium. I am not sure if the planning permission terms were tough enough. They should have stipulated what the developers could do both before the stadium was started and after it is completed. So if the new one is not ready the 2017 season will start in the present stadium. Edited October 17, 2016 by A ORLOV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
