Swindon Town Chairman Andrew Fitton has said that he expects the club to be playing in a new stadium by 2012, despite their repeated attempts in the past having been thwarted by local residents.

Speaking to BBC Radio Swindon Fitton said, ‘It would be good to do it (build a new stadium) for the Olympic year in 2012 which seems like a long way off but it’s not.

‘If we were moving off this site then 2012 would not be a bad target. If we stay at the County Ground then of course we may be able to move slightly faster.

‘The big decision first is ‘do we stay or do we go?’ and that decision has not been made yet.’ Fitton finished.

Trust STFC has already came up with some plans to redevelop the current County Ground site and the club may look at these in more details as the months go on.

Fitton and co. have already improved the stadium for the coming season by replacing all the broken seats with red ones and are currently looking at adding executive boxes to the ground.
