Latics Dynamos deal a step closer

ATHLETIC are close to reaching agreement with amateur club Failsworth Dynamos about the use of facilities at the proposed site of the new stadium at the Lancaster Club.

Officials of both clubs met this week - for the third time - and Athletic’s chief executive, Alan Hardy, said: “Things are moving along nicely. We have had meaningful discussions .

“I am sure we can reach agreement because we share the same vision.

“We all recognise there is a need to improve facilities for grassroots football in the town. Hopefully we can help play a part.

“The modern 3G pitches we are thinking of should be well used by the likes of Failsworth Dynamos and other local sides.”
