Rochester Stadium was a greyhound racing track in Rochester, Kent. The stadium opened in 1936 and the track was situated at the Greater London Stadium on City Way in Rochester. Racing commenced on 1 June. It became the 55th licensed track in 1936. In 1978 John McCririck a ''Sporting Life'' journalist took the lead in covering the Rochester greyhound coup that ended in a legal battle and it was not until 1985 that a judge agreed that bookmakers were not liable to pay out on the case. Just one year later, in 1979, Rochester Stadium closed in miserable circumstances. Rumours had surfaced that it was going to close, and it closed without warning after the site had been sold to developers. ==Motorcycle speedway racing== There were speedway racing trials in 1932, and many years later in 1969 when the Rochester Bombers wanted to use the stadium as their home venue. 〔(National Speedway Museum - Rochester. )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rochester Stadium」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
