And, plenty of farmers fields around there too!

Always thought the old airfields at Wroughton or South Marston, by Honda, would be good place for a track, seeing all the new-builds at Blunsdon and the Lydiards.

Lee is great with the fans, good luck at Eastie.

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..

That's exactly my point - that relying on greyhound racing will only help to close the stadium down.  Despite your rudeness to me, we seem to be in agreement on that point!

Not sure why you refer to our group as 'nutters'. They are nice people who don't want to see dogs killed or injured.  Says a lot about you that you consider them to be nutters.

Most people in Swindon want the speedway team to have a site and to be successful.  We could have all worked together which is why I came on this forum.  Most people on this forum also seem pessimistic that GI Ltd will ever redevelop the site and I agree with everyone on that.  

I won't bother replying to you again.  Very telling that you like replying to me on here.  I've had some nice, supportive replies from people on here and you come on to reply to me and are extremely rude.  A touch of misogyny, I suspect.

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 have just discovered the 'ignore' button.  Very useful for ignoring rude and patronising misogynists!  

If the speedway team wanted to explore alternative sites in Swindon, the anti greyhound racing group would support you all.  Let us know what we can do (e.g. speaking to local councillors, getting local support).

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 .

I did thanks.  For about 20 years then I gave it up.  My only regret is that I didn't give it up earlier.  

They say if abbatoirs had glass walls everyone would be a vegetarian!

I actually know someone who worked in an abbatoir and did become vegetarian as a result. That's why it always makes me laugh when people say they are against Halal meat because of animal welfare.

Your anti-greyhound stance is your own matter, and others on here may well sympathise, but using it as a stick to beat other sports with will do yourself or your cause no favours.

Going to now 'ignore' the last four posters.  I replied to someone's comment with an honest answer about whether I ate meat (I do not and no, I don't support any sport that involves cruelty to animals) and get rude messages back as a result.  I understand that my stance on eating meat will make some people feel uncomfortable.  I used to feel the same.  We often get accused of hypocrisy by people saying that we oppose greyhound racing but still eat meat.  Can't win with that one!  If I said I ate meat, I'd get accused of hypocrisy.  When I say I don't, I get derided for that and get told that's pathetic.  

You can join Orion in saying what you like about me now as I won't see it (happily).

I came on here to support the speedway team and to see if our groups could work together.  I appreciate those who have engaged with me in a constructive way and will just use the ignore button on the unpleasant ones.  Life is too short.

Do you honestley believe you are on here for the good of speedway, I can see through you straight away. Stick to other forums with your anti hunting field sport views. 

Its people like you that worm yourselves in making out to be doing good for a sport, but all along you are trying to worm yourself in thinking you are doing good for the sport.

You don't fool me!
