Thank you for your honest reply, and those people at the RFL (some have already been removed wi a golden handshake). wonder why the majority of RL fans also have no faith in the game’s administrators. See you at Belle Vue next season, providing those same administrators don’t cock up the championship and league one structure.

Bulls RLFans is renowned for its monster-length threads. Sadly, they only appear in times of trouble. Let's hope this one is a short one!

Hirst says IMG put 'significant obligations on stadium owners' so looks like they'd have to bring it up to scratch at some point.

Another RFL own goal?

I think you are very close to the truth, a few twists and turns to come soon but the truth will never come to light.

Nestegg has offered to meet anyone who wants to know the TRUTH in Wetherspoons in town. I believe there is a bombshell waiting to hit the press which will definitively reveal the links between the future of Odsal and a crash in a Parisian tunnel. Book now for an illuminating chat and/or a fight.

Techinaclly they paid nothing for the lease, all the day did was essentially snatch the lease when Robin Hood and his band of merry jokers couldn't pay back the secret loan the RFL had slipped us without mentioning it to the other clubs. All the talk of protecting rugby at Odsal was and still is utter drivel driven by money.

Yep, the rfl bricked themselves and converted their unsecured loan into an asset with value. I wondered at the time what the administration thought of that a few months later

Presuming you mean LED hoardings - why? - if the match is any good, nobody reads them!

Only people that work in schmarketing think that schmarketing works!

They have a licence until 2041, not a lease. Had a quick look at Odsal Motorsports on Companies House. Two directors with £1 shares apiece, apparently.

The council have the freehold
The RFL have the leasehold
The club and the stock at company are the tenants
So what’s the IMG’s definition of the owner?
