| i think staying at Odsal is the only viable option. To build a brand new stadium even a modest one would cost at least 10 million plus. Then locating and securing a suitable location would be very difficult. Only minor redevelopment of Odsal is required ; a roof over the tunnel terrace, extending and refurbishment of the changing rooms, upgrading of floodlights and scoreboard. A extensive redevelopment would be to extended the roof of the coral stand placing a terrace/seats underneath,bringing forward the Rooley La terrace square off and roof. Block in the corners to create a more intimate stadium. There you have a 20,000 plus stadium for less than 10m.
I struggle to understand why Odsal costs more to maintain than and other stadium other than may be having the admin block and offices away from the
corporate facility.
But why would anyone do this for less than 20 full openings a year. For anyone interested in buying the club I believe buying the lease off the RFL is essential and also council engagement is crucial. Just few questions to ponder - what is to happen the Richard Dunns sports centre and land? who is responsible for the acres of land south east of the coral stand towards the m606? Why did the swimming complex on Nelson Street suddenly get scrapped ? Answer these questions and may be the answer why buying the bulls could be of interest.

To build a roof covering the popular side and Rooley end was quoted at over 8 million quid in 2011.

That seems very expensive for some steel.

Wakefield built one over the North Terrace for about the price of the forfeited Sky money.

| Greens version was a very basic roof with supporting pillars like current mains stand meaning blocked sightlines in some spots. 8m version was for a cantilevered design that wouldnt have any pillars iirc

After the last couple of years I'd happily stand behind the pillar.

| Hearing Caisley is in pole position at the minute, not sure how much truth in that.
