Positive Outcome From Meeting With Mayor

By Dave Picken - November 8 2002
The club has held a meeting with Hartlepool Mayor Stuart Drummond, planners, Sport England, and representatives of the football teams who also use Brinkburn. Club Chairman Ron Greig and vice-Chairman Stuart Murray represented the club alongside Neil Midgley the Chair of the 6th Form Governors.

We provided some new pitch lay-outs, to accommodate both rugby and football, and made some suggestions for also using the former Rosebank playing field.

Further talks will be held but Stuart Murray said: "It was positive and provided useful information for all sides with the Mayor hoping to get sports turf specialists to have a look at the site.

"He is keen to get good use out of the whole site."
