I have fond memories of a couple of charity events I went to at Hall Green despite the fact I had concerns about the supposed ethics surrounding greyhound racing. Another part of our history being sold off to foreign investors. I'm sure it won't be long before it becomes a housing estate or God forbid another shopping centre! Let's hope I am wrong

I have been told that the Stadium has been bought by a company called Europackaging, it may or may not be correct. The Stadium people are said to be renting it for races.

Lets hope it works out. It would be a shame to lose another amenity.

It may have been the promoters who organised the races.

I wouldn't be surprised if it went the same way as Bromford Bridge. That went to the dogs too.
