Hilditch, who has left the chairman’s post in the recent board restructure to concentrate on the secretary’s job he had also been doing since the sad passing of Charlie Johnston at the turn of the year, is on the final stages of getting the essential paperwork ready ahead of meetings with all the relevant bodies.

“There’s been an enormous amount to do, especially with obtaining the safety certificate. But I’m now getting the loose ends all tied up ahead of speaking to officials from the various bodies - local authority, environmental, PSNI and Sport NI - who will doubtless go through everything with a fine-tooth comb during the next 10 working days.

“Then it will be a matter of going to Mid and East Antrim Council to hopefully have them issue the safety certificate,” explained Hilditch just back at the weekend for a well-earned holiday in the sun.
