In 1927 the Seaforth area was heavily populated with industry and housing with very few available plots of land that could provide enough space for a new stadium.

[1] Jimmy Shand and John Bilsland the owners of the Electric Hare Company had already built Stanley Stadium in 1927, the same year as Breck Park Stadium and Bilsland planned to open Seaforth (a third track in Liverpool) after buying out Shand for £400,000 in 1930.

[2] Seaforth became the fourth greyhound stadium in Liverpool when opening on 25 February 1933 and despite its location away from the centre of the city it would become the most frequented in this industrial area by the docks.

[6] By March 1950 the decision was made by the four Liverpool tracks and Firhill to resign from their National Greyhound Racing Society affiliation due to increased costs.

John Bilsland stated that the cost of NGRC membership exceeds £1,000 per year if you included the greyhound registration fees.
