Yes i see that Kilby bloke has left for Eastbourne . Rats leaving a sinking ship.

If I didn't know better I'd think you two separate posters are celebrating in another clubs problems.

There are standalone speedway tracks here and there are many other uses of a speedway track that could be used to subsidise speedway.  Gaming International have reported a loss in their last set of accounts for 2018 and 2019 so I can't see that greyhound racing as a spectator sport has a future at Swindon.  And to rely on that to subsidise speedway is very short sighted.  Far better to propose alternative uses for the stadium that are more financially viable.

The stadium itself is in a terrible state and it's hard to believe that GI Ltd are going to come good on their promise to redevelop it, especially as they are a loss making company and greyhound racing is in decline in the UK.    

 

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..

It gives the minnows like Belle  Vue a chance to win a trophy :D Swindon and Poole have been dominant in recent years.

Honestly Geoff, 

 

just STFU

 

you are getting worse and im embarrassed to be associated with you at belle vue

 

whats strange is your actually a decent guy so not sure what makes you turn into a right little weasle on a forum.

 

can you remember the last time we won a league trophy........... 1993, yes 1993 so we are the last bunch of fans that should be revelling in another clubs troubles

 

so pipe down and become the man you are that we see at the track

Have massive respect for the Mancs, probably the most successful team in history, and like the Wolves seem to have been around from day 1. Peter Craven was my first shale hero. Surprised they havent won the League since 93. Not as bad as Spurs though! Enjoyed my visit with Swindon to Vue around 2004, good fans apart from a couple of those mouthy Madchester Mexicans.:rolleyes:

IGNORANCE.  Lacking knowledge or awareness in general. Uneducated or unsophisticated   

Reckon that might sum this fella up

I do understand that, Orion.
I'd prefer not to interact with you again.  I find you very rude.  Please don't reply or interact with any of my messages any more.

I see Lee Kilby has joined Eastbourne on loan for the 2021 season with the move to be made permanent once the robins inevitably fly away at the end of the 2021 season.

Good to see Lee getting fixed up early at another Speedway club. Good bit of business by Eastbourne to get in quick as well.

Lee quoted in Speedy Star as 'fully expecting to be back at Swindon for 2022'!

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..

I've never met Lee Kilby but from what i know of him, i reckon if Swindon closed down and had to restart from scratch and run NL in a farmers field in Lydiard Millicent, that's where he would be, doing his best to promote the club and generate sponsorship. He is like his father a Swindon boy through and through.

I don't even know if there are farmers fields in Lydiard Millicent, i just saw the name on a signpost when i was out that neck of the woods one day

Decent bloke, and we have Lydiard Tregoze and other exotic places such as Washpool
