Brief historyThey first competed in the National League Division Two in 1947 and were based at the Poolstock greyhound stadium in Poolstock. They finished near the bottom of the League. However, the team lasted barely one season with the riders transferring to Fleetwood during April of the 1948 season. Jack Gordon and Norman Hargreaves were the mainstays of the team which also featured Reg Lambourne, Cyril Cooper and Jack Winstanley.
