It wouldn't...you don't HAVE to watch it at 7.30pm, it can be viewed anytime after 7.30pm. Or just don't make it available until say 8.30pm when the SEC would be done and dusted. Seems quite logical to me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hyabb17 1,077 Posted August 5, 2020 What the hell has gone on as I’ve just seen this tweeted by someone in the greyhound community BREAKING NEWS POOLE STADIUM CLOSED! Not the news I wanted to bring to you this evening. Hopefully there is a few avenues we can try to go down, but a meeting was held this evening which has resulted in the closure of the stadium. More news to follow... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rob B 1,256 Posted August 5, 2020 When Belle Vue greyhound stadium closed giving a final reason of financial problems due to no public being allowed, I feared how many others could follow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daz9100 270 Posted August 5, 2020 BCP Council own the stadium. The land was left to the council by Lady Wimborne for sports use only. It just can't be knocked down and built on. The earlier tweet relates to the greyhounds only not the speedway. The car park and children's nursery are still operating as normal. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
