GRANT’S DIAMONDS WARNING

NEWCASTLE owner Rob Grant has warned this Sunday’s home fixture against Birmingham could be the last to be staged at Brough Park.

Grant has already stated his intention to walk away from the Diamonds at the end of the season, and has confirmed no deal is yet in place for the continuation of the club.

He said: “I am deeply sorry and disappointed for our dedicated sponsors, riders, and most importantly our ever-loyal band of supporters.

“I wish you all the very best for the future and I sincerely hope that a rescue package comes to light for the Diamonds, and everyone connected to Newcastle Speedway, however, at this moment in time I can say that there is no-one waiting to take it over.

“I understand that this will be an emotional and difficult fixture to attend but if you can, please come along and support the Diamonds for the final meeting against Birmingham this Sunday, September 19 at 6.30pm.”
