The lease is for Stadia UK to operate the stadium as a sports/leisure facility, specifically (but not exclusively) for Greyhounds and Speedway.  If it doesn't do one and doesn't allow the other then its reneging on the terms of the lease and this would allow the Council to take the lease back or offer it to an alternative operator with similar leisure/sporting provision.

 just dont think its that simple skids ,if you havnt read and studied the lease you cant make assumptions about what the council can do, or try and guess what they might want to do.Regarding sport at the stadium i do know that the lease specifies that the leaseholder must provide any two of the three sports speedway,greyhounds or football (always assumed to be pooletown) but the leaseholder alone to decide which two,they obviously picked speedway and dogs being the most profitable two.(no money in non league football as they might now be discovering at torquay lol)so speedway wasnt guaranteed tho would have been pretty stupid not to stage it.

So its announced today that at least 5 of the 2020 Pirate team will undergo 'behind closed doors' training this month - but not at Wimborne Road?!

I guess it will be at a track owned by the respective Speedway Promotion eg. Somerset, IOW, Kings Lynn, BV?

 

PS. Edited for the over-pedantic' "practice"!

Don't think it'll be Somerset as they are all locked up due to our travelling friends sniffing around.

Leicester or Scunny surely.
