The fans forum revealed that the link up between the clubs is just that, no merger or 1st team ground sharing/moving. The Avenue will utilise the Bulls full time office/administration helping with commercial activities,ticketing etc, while the Bulls will utilise Horsfall for Academy and Ladies fixtures once improvements are mmade to the stadium, it was also muted shared training facilities would be located their too.Gareth Roberts was joined by another American based investor Jonathan Collura, and Damian Irving. Sounds promising despite one Avenue Dinasaur trying to wind them

We have a lease to it, so it is 'ours' to use for rugy league and put circuses on (I'm assuming that was a club enterprise) etc.
Who knows what the result would be to, say any offer to the council for the freehold? I'm sure any trivial matters of tenancies and sub tenancies could soon be easily overcome with the aid of all the things at the disposal of a 'billionaire'.. Especially if said 'billionaire' was directly connected to the major end user (ie us).
Obviously, nothing further than a loose arrangement to share some facilities has actually been agreed and that is where we're at. Maybe there are no plans, in the back of anyone's mind to go any further, who knows? I remain wary of other clubs, with very rich financial backers, making overtures.
