Since the closure of Reading's Smallmead Stadium(greyhound racing and speedway)in October 2008, there have been plans to replace it and bring greyhound racing back to Reading.
A recent article in The Reading Chronicle brings news that Stadia UK Ltd may now proceed with plans to return greyhound racing to Reading.
On 14th Oct 2011 Reading Borough Council granted planning permission for Racino: A combined greyhound and speedway stadium with a casino.
Please leave your polite comments of disapproval that Reading Borough Council have given approval to furthering ABUSE of greyhounds.
