Probably....i remember as a kid the ol man taking me and my brother to Clapton Stadium,Hackney Wick,Haringay,West Ham Stadium,Walthamstow,greyhound racing was massive in the area back then West Ham stadium had something like 80,000 capacity !....it was the first interest i ever took in dogs,the Gypsies would often have the dogs out of the kennels at Walthamstow the kennel blocks back onto the River Ching which was only ankle deep they would often cut a hole in the fence and run off with the winning dog in their arms
