After endl𝐆ess meetings with sponsors and marketing agents, one of the last jobs of the day was to see how the new Dons flags looked, fluttering in the wind.

Sev൲en massive 6ft flags had been commissioned in the team colours with a bright yellow star centred on a red background, and the first had arrived.

After endle♐ss meetings with sponsors and marketing agents, one of the last jobs of the day was to see how the new Dons flags looked, fluttering in the wind.

Seven massive 6ft flags had been commissioned in the team colou𒁏rs with a bright yellow star centred on a red background, and the first had arrived.

Croucher commented, "It looks like a kid waving a hanky from the other end of the 📖Stadium. We will have to make them bigger. 8 or 10 feet long."

This quest of the speedway loving pair to bring all the razzmatazz of the Grand Prix and the professionalism of the Eli𓂃te League is evident in everything they do.

A deal has been struck with th✱e ever-helpful landlords, the Greyhound Racing Association, to place a Track Shop inside the Stadium.

"Track Shops historically have always bꦯeen by the side of the track" said David, "But we don't want a wallpaper table with a few badges and programmes on it, out in the cold and damp! You wouldn't see it Manchester United's football ground, and you are not going to see it here."
