I was chatting to an even older st holder than me at the Villa game and he knew Mr Eady and reminded me of the legacy. We were wondering if under this Fanzai malarkey we would ever know what happened to the money and lo and behold I read about in the Adver.!
One hell of a gesture, R.I.P. Mr Eady.

RIP. He's a town fan, how can he ever rest in peace? Wonderful gesture though.

Fantastic gesture. Just hope the money is spent on what he had earmarked it for. RIP Nigel.

I'd like to see it invested in the training ground personally but the main thing is that it is spent on whatever Mr Eady intended it for.

I understand it was meant to be for developing players, so the new training ground will be the one! I'll bet Swindon Borough Council's ears will prick up when they know the cash is there to buy a training ground - they'll find some land then for that I'll bet!!

There was talk of the old Moredon Golf Course, which the Tories closed, and their corporate chums couldn't be persuaded to take on becasue it's err Moredon. The chums preferring Broome Manor, because they can forget the golf (no profit) but build a hotel (plannig app) now in....doubtless in advance of a large housing estate down the line. Apparently STFC rejected Moredon on the basis that it would need a prohibitively large security fence when we reach the Prem....because it's err Moredon.

I live opposite that golf course. loads of land there, with football pitches behind it and possibility to develop stuff with benefit of the school and most importantly I can go down on transfer deadline day and get the scoops

As areas/suburbs go, Moredon's not that bad is it?
