Sorry if this has been mentioned in one of the previous threads but to be honest i haven’t got the time/cant be arsed to look through them.
I live on Shrivenham road and have just had my local councillor knocking on my door asking about views on the ground share. She said she’s going to be on BBC recording at 7am tomorrow morning in the county ground car park and is encouraging anyone strongly opposing the ground share to get down there and give their views.
I think the emphasis was more on residents but i think she seemed a little surprised at just how opposed a fan was to this move and would encourage anyone against it to get down there for a bit of support.
Said she went down the road the vast majority of people were aware of it and strongly opposed.
and most importantly she said she spoke to the chief executive of Swindon Town and it was said that the deal could include us moving the new memorial stadium for the duration during the redevelopment of the county ground.

Sounds to me like a deal is on the table then, just a case of dotting the I's and crossing the t's.
Fuck :x

I wonder if BBC RS stoked the fires up a bit by inviting the Councillor(s) on to air their views on the subject?
edit: actually, is it radio or TV?

7am tomorrow Even if I knew that turning up would guarantee the board leaving with the consortium taking over the club, the ground share being scrapped and Town achieving at least the play-offs next season. I'm pretty sure I still wouldn't get out of bed. |

I wouldn't worry the current board will never get that far with the ground redevelopment they've got no where in 6 years so can't see that changing........unless of course they expect to be evicted in 2 years time and need a home?! |
