The intention would be to then sell on the land, which only they can do, for a big profit. I'm sure many council tax-payers would be more than happy with that.

We could build another mirror pool and all sorts.

The council didn't give away anything. They agreed a payment to the Bulls to cover the upkeep of the stadium and that the responsibility and costs of maintaining Odsal transferred from the council to the Bulls.

But you're right. The council will be left with a prime piece of real estate right on the motorway. How will they ever recoup their money from that?

My source told me last night that the bid was Dom bcfc and that plans are for both teams to play at odsal sporting village. Yes that's right odsal sporting village may be back on the cards

Do I take it you are not inspired by the relection of empty shops and a disused cinema?

Look in the bright side it is one hole they managed to fill!

They could always let Odsal fill with water and let the Brownlee boys train in it?

Well, there are well documented problems due to the substances which have been tipped there over the years, but it would make a brilliant site for a transport company; maybe steady Eddie could keep his connection to RL after all!

I'll be happy with a club to support tbh. Where is of secondary importance right now.

My thoughts exactly...but i'd still prefer the bulls to be playing at odsal

Are they bothered, I meen it's not like ANY council to make money out of anything they sell is it? Except Hull, just put that in so HFC don't have to comment.

Odsal everyday of the week for me. Our attendances went down while at VP and anyone who think we'd sturggle financially at Odsal, would have a reality check if we moved VP. The football club very nearly dropped out of the football league last year and if it did, probably wouldn't exist right now due to the bills their paying at VP.

groundhog day Bulliac: can you give the links to those documents, as the BMC south Bradford development plan that stated the council would allow as much development around Odsal as needed to pay for redevelopment of the stadium makes no mention of such problems. But if that is the planning deal, then they will allow as much development as is needed to cover the costs of cleansing Odsal of the pollutants that have afflicted it for many a year. hopefully both literally and metaphorically.

income 2002 VP £3561k 2010 Odsal £3956K cost of sales 2002 VP £2433K 2010 Odsal £3127K. do the sums, VP was more profitable by £300K 10 years ago, and of course we are now in 2012 which must be showing a bigger loss than 2010 otherwise we would not be in admin, so add a few more hundred thousand into that difference. So I have to ask the question, are you serious, Odsal every day of the week??? enjoy the waste tip, 7/52.
