Lefty 1,268 Posted April 1, 2021 From the Newcastle forum page: ..... we are unable to clarify is each individual stadiums capacity, but what we can let the fans know is the capacity as to which we were told Newcastle could have from the dates of May 17th to June 21st. We were advised by our local authority that they would let no more than a little over 200 fans outside and 75 indoors, which would have to be stretched between the hospitality suite and the main bar upstairs. Given the above what are the implications for Monmore Green during this period? Also the Monmore Greyhound website suggest paying public to be admitted to the afternoon meeting on 17th May. Does this have implications on running speedway on the same night? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SSL84 541 Posted April 1, 2021 True but maybe they can't a practice day in , so a open meeting would give the riders a practice after being so long off racing , instead of going straight into a league meeting? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd say thats a very good point, if there's a greyhound meeting then surely public areas will need a pretty good clean between closure of that meeting and turnstiles opening for the speedway So best hope for no pawses during the greyhound meeting Edited April 1, 2021 by Triple.H.

There is no way a club can run with that attendance allowance, even if it goes up after June 21st Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
