Following the announcement that a restaurant charity table has been snapped up, Nottingham are now just 60 tickets short of capacity for Saturday’s night Derby card.

The table of eight, donated by the race sponsors, was sold at lunchtime today, with the proceeds earmarked for the East Midlands, Skegness and Hall Green Greyhound Trusts.

Spokesman Nathan Corden said: “That just leaves us with 60 tickets for Star Sports Corner. Everything is going to plan.”
