I'd be amazed. It'd cost a fortune to re-develop Odsal, more than a lot of other grounds simply because you'd have to fill the hole in before you could build on it. Then there's the contaminated land too.

I'm not getting my hopes up. I've been here many times before.

Agree with all that, but Odsal does have all the attributes; central UK location, transport links and a blank canvas and wouldn't (I expect) have come with a vast price tag. With sponsors involved with the building who can say? Don't forget the building regs seem to have disappeared now (I bet the old Tesco scheme would have got the green light now). What's more there's probably room to build a 'National RL Stadium' and still leave us in the old ground - that should keep the Cas and Wakey etc fans happy.

The old Tesco scheme would have got the green light in any six month political cycle other than the one under which it was submitted.

have i been wrong before?

well actually my wife would say im wrong quite a lot

Gledhill just tweeted that the RFL were at Odsal today hahaha

Rog does have a good track record so I'm sure he ain't winding, and thinks this is true. Equally, I know the Council, and if they have sold Odsal to the ROFL, not to mention having kept that quiet as in 100% quiet, then I will bare my arrse on the town hall steps.

So, maybe something for you all to look forward to, then?





PS There will turn out to be something giving rise to this rumour though, if not a sale, Rog deserves any of his info to be taken seriously

Gledhill keeping quiet on here though! come on mick spill....

Yes Mick - it could be Ferocious Avark soon

just anounced on rfl site. purely defensive, no rfl national stadium development plans

So this actually changes.......nothing, as far as I can tell. In the short term, at least.

The ultimate plan is to stuff it in the museum under the George Hotel.
