I'd guess that any stock car alterations to the stadium would knock any ideas of SL even deeper into the realms of fantasy that they were already? I just don't think putting Odsal back how it was in the sixties is exactly Elstone and SL's view the future.
On a practical point where would the pits go? Will the Coral stand have to go? The track would be wide enough for speedway but not stocks, maybe can it be raised and then the cars could race under it, a bit like the tunnels in the Monaco Grand Prix..

I'm sure I read somewhere that the pits would be behind the Coral Stand? Could be wrong but I'm sure I did read it somewhere. |

I had heard that a large number of vandals had got into the stadium and caused thousands of pounds worth of improvements!

It's in my interview with Steve, the maintenance of the stock cars will take place behind the South Bank stand.
There is more room than previously due to the removal of the old huts. |

The new perimeter fencing is ready to be installed.
Everyone is waiting for the green light to be given next Thursday.
Exciting times.

Mate you're ALWAYS excited. You're basically a human puppy. I would like some good news but this jaded cynic will wait and see I think. |

I'm pretty underwhelmed myself, if I'm honest. Whilst I have nothing against Stocks or speedway per se, in fact I like both, I'm not keen on being even further from the rugby action than we used to be. With my rugby hat on it has long been my hope that the track would eventually go and we could watch from a bit nearer the pitch.
I'd love to watch the motorsport at Odsal but have the Bulls in that 'boutique' ground over the road. That is my position and I am unanimous in that.

| Quote Wigan Bull="Wigan Bull"Don't disagree with any of that.....it is all a very sad and re-occurring pattern isn't it, rolling from one disaster to the next.
I keep an eye on things from a distance these days, more out of duty than hope.
That said, it wouldn't surprise me to see us admitted, then the RFL change the rules to stop promotion and relegation, giving us a fighting chance and the SL becoming a franchised closed shop again.
This is probably the optimist in me, but god knows with our sport. The top tier would certainly be better with a competitive Bulls in it.
To echo some of the other opinion on here, I fear for the sport generally....'"
Agreed. I think the Bulls going up (almost inevitable) is a strategy designed to save the whole sport not just the Bulls. Odsal is viable for a few years with £1m and gives the game, the RFL, SL and of course the Bulls and Bradford Council time to get cracking on a long term plan, Richard Dunn and another ground.
This is a worthy risk for all in these very worrying and troubled times. |
