It's already rent free. They're on a peppercorn agreement for 150 years from memory.
Unless they renegotiated the terms with the RFL?

I spoke to someone who said that the members of the consortium don't know what ABC stands for! Apparently the administrator came up with that name. Also they were confident that Caisley has no interest in said consortium, but told me I will laugh when I see who is the main man is. Didn't know how to take that.

There's only one George Galloway.

| I was under the impression that it was an asian business man who is currently involved in properties which is likely to be a letting /estate agent in the area.
ABC might be the name they are using just like when you say X was invloved in something.
The other name in the frame could well be the name I mentioned at the start of all this(Hetherington).

Maybe it doesn't 'stand for' anything at all
The guy from Akbars isn't called Akbar anyway -he's called Shabbir Hussain.
Either way, I guess we'll find out soon enough....

Is ' A Bradford Company' too obvious?
Or maybe 'Andrew Bennets Consortium'

That is what happened. The club recieved £1.25million + Vat which was swallowed up by debt to the RFL and bank overdraft and the club was described as 'market rate', whatever that meant although I think there was some further reference to the RFL getting a 'return' on the money.
In short, a secret loan followed by a purchase kept secret until after the fact negotiated on terms nobody needs to find out about.

| Hi
i just heard on radio Leeds that the RFL have stated that they will not accept a conditional offer for the Bulls.
Have you heard anything about it?
It has also been tweeted by James Deighton
The RFL have stressed that they will not accept a "conditional" from the consortium interested in taking over the #bradfordbulls

| At Huddersfield there was a pub called the Castle hill. Bought and run by asian business men. What we have now is a hole in the ground and no pub

Does this mean, by your reckoning, that Odsal will be turned into a pub?
