By definition the job I do I work non core hours so any increased traffic in the area would impact on me.

There is also if I'm honest the fact I don't care if Swinton survive, when morons like Marshy continually came on here this is the outcome as far as I'm concerned.

Pathetic argument. Can't you block yourself?

I don't like Swinton mainly due to playing for Folly and enduring the abuse I get off the Swinton fans there but I've signed as it would be shame to let them die. They are a traditional Rugby League club with great history and believe it or not they have some very loyal and knowlegable fans.

Championship (6 times): 1926–27, 1927–28, 1930–31, 1934–35, 1962–63, 1963–64
Challenge Cup (3 times): 1899–1900, 1925–26, 1927–28
Lancashire Cup (4 times): 1925–26, 1927–28, 1939–40, 1969–70
Lancashire League (6 times): 1924–25, 1927–28, 1928–29, 1930–31, 1939–40, 1960–61
Second Division: 1984–85
Championship 1: 2011

Any club with a record like that deserves to survive.

Plus what they did for us in our hour of need was very generous of them, we need to thank them for this and the least we can do is sign the petition.

I agree but when you get idiots from other teams coming on here for me this type of feeling is the net result, hence why I hope Castleford finish bottom.

The comment on the area is a valid one for me, anyone who works on Wardley will tell you the area gets log jammed and increasingly it is getting worse during the day and later on into the evening.

Just out of interest I asked a girl I work with who lives near Partington Lane what she thinks and the community aspect was of interest but the disruption during construction and then on match days was a big no no.

Will be fantastic if this comes off. Hope it gets the go ahead.

Must admit, traffic logjams in Swinton on a Sunday afternoon is a new one to me.

Seriously? For Swinton? How many fans are you anticipating? Obviously if it was Leigh things would be different, but Swinton?

On the same premise that the Doc would invest in the playing personnel you'd think that crowds would increase.

And I've seen a build up off traffic on Priestly Rd and Moorside Road on a Saturday at certain times when coming into or out of work.

Crowds would hopefully increase from the hundreds in to the low thousands. Are you honestly against Swinton being given a life line because of some misguided idea that you will be slightly inconvenienced getting to and from work on a handful of times a year?

Good job no one raised such ludicrous arguments against our ground being built. Oh wait, they did.

Misguided?

I'm speaking from experience and I was honest enough to admit that it's partly due to Marshy. I said at the time when he was on here continually sniping and generally being a tool this would be my reaction. Sorry to all the other Swinton fans and I've no doubt that other teams feel the same when some of our mob go on other clubs forums antagonising them.

For what it's worth there must be a better a site in Swinton than where we are talking about.

Hopefully you don't get a new job anytime soon because it would be disappointing if we lost a rugby league club with 147 years of history because it interfered with your commute and then you moved on.

Don't worry flower I have no intentions of changing jobs. I mean if I didn't do what I do I know of at least two of your away days last season where you wouldn't have had a beer at away grounds.

I notice you ignored the salient point that there are better locations in Swinton, though it's a trait you share with others on here.

I think the original idea near the prison would be ideal and the community aspect could maybe include educational facilities that could be utilised by the correctional staff and inmates. Maybe there is an option for government grants if this is posdoble.

What are these better other sites in Swinton then? Agecroft is a non starter for various reasons, the site is too small, the land is owned by the prison and above all it's a sh*t location. The proposed site is the best available within the M27 postcode.

Embarrassing input to what was a great topic.

Are you all aware that people now live in the old school building? The classrooms have been converted into low-rent apartments. Would this be an issue if it went ahead do we think?

There is plenty of land going towards Clifton and then Kearsley and the other area I always wonder about is the land next to the Henry Bods.

Sorry but still don't see why Swinton aren't playing at Barton and where possible as a curtsin raiser game before we play especially when the Doc has taken them over.

You sure about that?
