Have you forgotten about the 56 people that lost their lives at VP?
We have memorial plaques etc at VP that's the reason we don't want to leave for them.

Thinking about what BCFC would get out of this, does anyone know where they train? Would the Bull's facilities at Tong be better and reduce their (and our) costs?

Championship rugby at Odsal or Horsfall?

Apperley Bridge.

We've just spent thousands on the Training facility so I can't see that happening.

SL Rugby at VP with £260 season tickets would be a massively more positive outcome than we were looking at last week.

I once played a surreal, spooky game vs Swinton at their cavenous, dicrepit old ground in front of a two men & a dog. Odsal would go the same way.

Likewise. From memory we spent 250kish setting tong up a couple of years ago. Assuming rents arent massive then it may make sense to keep both training facilities going anyway as both football and rugby teams will need to train at same times. Not like stadium where home games are alternate weeks.

Why would anyone pay £260 for a season ticket when its £20 on the gate?. You only need to miss one match and your out of pocket. Effectively everyone would become walk up supporters at that price and crowds would go back to being dependent on how teams going on pitch.

Bulls need Tong to be able to attract the youngsters - needs the location, superbly p[laced for the big RL hinterland.. Apperley Bridge does not work, because it is too far for younsgters - and the taxi-ing parents - to travel given its usually evenings.

Odsal doesn't meet football league criteria so City moving there can't happen. Keeping two grounds doesn't make sense so VP it will be.

There has to be another money man funding this in the background. City have had as many financial problems over the last few years as the Bulls! Can't see them having the money available to fund it themselves or risking their future by borrowing it. Theres plenty more info to come out in this one.

Well, I'd like to say I'm surprised by this development....but I don't think anything in this saga could surprise me now.

I'll wait until there is more detail before I think about VP or Odsal or what it all means, no-ones said it means VP, but its the obvious meduim term solution, and an option I would wlecome if the alternative was oblivion or championship 1 rl at Horsfall.

I'm just grateful to Bradford City for getting involved if they think they can help save my club.

I suspect that the fans who live nearer to VP than Odsal would be OK with a move. I know a few Bulls fans who are opposed to a move, but then they live within walking distance of Odsal.

I've been going to Odsal for over 40 years and have a lot of fond memories invested in the place, but surely playing anywhere is better than playing nowhere.

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?
