Moree & Forbes Greyhound Clubs On The Chopping Block
Written By Kevin Pitstock, Editor & Australian Greyhound Racing Expert Contributor Saturday 26th December 2009
Greyhound Racing NSW (GRNSW) announced an unpleasant surprise for both Moree and Forbes Greyhound Racing Clubs on Christmas Eve.
Both clubs have not had their licences renewed for the 2010 calendar year yet, and Moree has been asked to show cause.
Is with recent closures in Queensland, a “show cause” notice is as a good as terminal bout of cancer, few comback from it.
Moree
The Moree Club has been asked to “show cause†as to why it should be registered in 2010 on the
basis that it is financially viable to participate in the greyhound industry. The club has now been given just 14 days to respond by supplying complete financial information that demonstrates their financial viability.
Consequently the proposed race meeting scheduled for Moree on Friday 1st January 2010 has been cancelled.
Consideration of the Forbes application has been deferred until audited financial statements for the
2008/09 financial year have been received by GRNSW.
