http://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/display.var.828626.0.on_yer_bikes.phpPersonally I've never been to the speedway (had a few good nights at the dogs) I still think its bang out of order though. The 2nd biggest sports club in Swindon, and from what I understand they have been pretty successful over the years too. Sacrificed for what? some more houses. Just what Swindon needs.

I think the houses will be for peopl who live in Abbey Meads who can't find their houses after they go out shopping.

what i want to know is where the kids are going to go to school when these homes are built.my cousins lad was nearly forced to go to penhill as none of the local schools had room.only after months of struggle eventually a place was found for the child.i didn't even consider that area when looking for my new home for this reason.
as for the speedway that stadium is a right state and needs a revamp but the speedway should remain in swindon and preferbly at its current location

"He said there was no reason why the team could not move to Reading, followed by supporters who could make the trip down the M4."

I've never been to speedway but been to the dogs which was a good laugh.
I wonder if the people that protest about these sorts of things are the same ones that complain Swindon has nothing to do? I don't see why these situations have more supporters especially as Swindon is deemed to be a boring town.

Too right Arriba, the council just want to build houses for revenue but don't realise that extra facilities (e.g. schools) need to be built to cope with the new population.

The speedway is ace. I havent been for a couple of years, but the fact remains that a good few hundred (maybe tousands) of people in the town enjoy a night down there. Getting rid of it would be a travesty

makes me laugh "local residents dont like it"
Well other than the houses down the side of the A419 (blunsdon) all the other nearby homes have been built in the last 5 years.
IF YOU DONT LIKE THE NOISE OF LOUD MOTORBIKES, DONT MOVE IN NEXT TO A SPEEDWAY TRACK YOU FUCKING MORONS

Although not directly culpable, SBC will doubtless be complicit in destroying another small piece of Swindon'd cultural heritage.
The spineless councillors (see JT)....will hide behind teh facade of obfustication and red tape offered by their officers.
The real laugh is that the owner of Robins, suggests STFC wouldn't be kicked out, whereas nothing in SBC recent decision making, indicates otherwise.
