I was told this last night by an employee of the football club too as they had already been told the outcome.
Public meeting so anyone who attended knows the outcome as the club spoke at committee understandable they were there and would share the good news amongst the staff, just takes a while for the Council to update their paperwork online. Can possibly see some highways work being done to implement and thus protect the permissions in perpetuity but nothing tangible until either the houses are approved or AN Other comes forward to fund the bloody thing, just illustrates the state of football, the £6m cost would be pocket money for PL/Championship clubs. |

PV I understand that it was common knowledge that the planning officers had stated that they would approve, just needed the committee to go along with it. Just one vote against. Could have been costly for SBC if the committee had gone against the recommendations of the planners - they have already got their fingers burned over in the South Marston area |

How much is the horse training facility likely to be worth? Maybe Taylor Curran's dad is going to fund it.

And Power doesn’t have a bottomless pit.
Expecting issues to come out of the woodwork around ownership. It hasn’t gone way.
Court dates are late November this year. |

If nothing else I assume that Gary Barry can now come out of the shadows since his retirement? |

He has a net worth of about 10 million according to wiki, so not really enough for a club the size of Swindon. Although he'd no doubt know enough wealthy people to put a consortium together. That's if he even wants to, of course. |
