I think things have taken a turn for the better at Filtronic in recent times so the Rhodeses might have a bit of cash to play with again, especially if there is a plan to get a return on the investment a year or so down the line.....

Not saying you're wrong, because I don't know anything about it, but why doesn't Odsal meet football league criteria?

Tsch. Chauffers work 24/7, I don't see the problem.

Was that the time Terry Holmes made his debut and the whole Swinton pack chased him and broke his arm?

Rubbish. It was a cracking ground at Station Road. Oh - by the way - there were three men there that day.

Surely that depends on where they live Adey?

Yours doesn't any more.

He joined the Butler on the barricades.

And brought the helicopter with him.

Indeed it does. And Tong is seemingly far more convenient for the large majority of them.

I agree with your comment but Adey is right

Look at the 2 places on Google Maps

Tong is the easiest to get to from most places where Rugby is played at an early age and therefore where the Academy players will be coming from (ie the M62 corridor)

Signature material...

Could it be without the debt that’s been building that we can make it work remaining at Odsal while sharing other costs with City. The club have a database of over 10000 season ticket holders and selling into that base at a sensible price may make it viable. They must also be looking at cross selling tickets with City regardless of where we play and while using 1 stadium must be cheaper maybe it's still viable for 2 if both crowds can be improved.
