I just gave an opinion about improving the ground, i didnt expect anything more from you anyway, the words bitter and twisted certainly comes to mind.

| As a Leeds fan I think Headingley is woefully short of the standards that should be expected from a top sporting club.
Three quarters of the ground is not better than the likes of Whelden Rd, Odsal, The Willows.
When you have one stand that cannot be filled due to safety issues, you have another end that is completely exposed to the elements and your "Prestige" stand has 50 year old wooden seats.
Viewing is poor for 70% of the ground - as the saying goes "Those in glass houses"

Absolutely agree. Said it for a number of years. Best thing this club can do is up sticks and develop elsewhere.
You can't keep polishing a turd, eventually it falls away.

Why you having a pop at Wheels?
Not only are your arguments of the swiss cheese variety, your banter is pretty naff also.

| Quote: MjM "An interesting whisper of a rumour which I heard today could be relevant.
What if, just imagine, Caddick was interested in selling Leeds CF&A Limited. And had, let's just say, discretely circulated that fact to a selection of appropriately wealthy local businesspeople who might be considered suitable potential new owners for the Rhinos?
One probably wouldn't make big capital decisions, however urgent they are by all accounts, if there was a change in ownership in the offing. Especially if those new owners might have a different strategic direction in mind for the club.

Why should the Council pay for any repairs?

Well we were led to believe by GH that if the SS is not rebuilt "now"it will have to close,because we will not get another safety certificate.So the "really good constuctive meetings"with LCC must have amounted to some kind of consession because the SS will be open for next season.

| According to Radio Humberside - how you interpret the reliability of this source is up to you - Hull FC have reached a settlement with the Inland Revenue over the image rights issue. They have agreed to pay a not insubstantial sum of around £1m. It's quite possible that we may end up paying a similar sum, if not more. If so, it's hardly surprising that work on the South Stand has been deferred.

Building control aren't usually in the business of offering concessions & even if they have, that doesn't amount to an offer from the council to fund any necessary repairs.
As I posted elsewhere, when I was there for the cricket at the start of September, test holes had been drilled around the perimeter of the South Stand. Possibly they showed that it is safe for another period of time.
Inflatable Armadillo (who's been absent from here for a while) could advise better than me.
It smacks of brinkmanship from GH if you ask me.
