Swindon Town Bought By Halliburton ; Cheney To Build Ranch

In a move to surely shock and horrify Swindon Town fans, the new owners have been revealed.

The American Halliburton Group bought a 95% stake in STFC this morning at 11am.

There are rumours that the County Ground is to be converted into an oil refinery and Iraq US coalition troop supply depot with a planning application being submitted to Swindon Borough Council tomorrow lunchtime.

Swindon Centric Says ; We don't expect Halliburton to put in a bid with central government to buy a stake in the Borough Council until August at the earliest.
