Look, if you had one shot, or one opportunity To seize everything you ever wanted-One moment Would you capture it or just let it slip?:27054.jpg



BPA will be the only option crowd numbers are going to continually dwindle even further.

Only option RE:Odsal is sell it for clean landfill pull Dunnies down dump it in the hole and then build a 14k seater stadium ala LSV over the road.
Either that or bring in an investment group with naming rights to the new Odsal stadium where it stands.
Which I don't think either Nige or Hirsty have the contacts or Knowledge to do, CAP in hand to the council was their plan.
Maybe now its cap in hand to Caddick?
Said it before though no stadium no Super League I don't think IMG will be fobbed off with an artists impression like Cas and Wakey have got away with for years.
Infact I will double post this in the stadium thread too..

Quote: bowlingboy "Only option RE

Whilst I don’t disagree, isn’t it up to the council (who own the land) and the RFL (who own the lease to the stadium) to sell Odsal or not? I believe we are not even the primary sub tenants, that’s the banger racers, which is why we have to accommodate all their requirements I.e. red shale all over the place, carriageway dividers, tiny pitch etc. Who is going to invest on behalf of the Bulls when they will have zero surety on their investment?
Buying the lease back from the RFL and then carrying out small, gradual improvements would seem the way forward. We certainly haven’t got the money for that but that would seem to be the only way to attract an investor.
If nothing is done then it’s surely only a matter of time before the place is condemned and closed down.

Unfortunately some genius decided to list Richard Dunnes so, whilst that is probably the most viable solution, it’s a non-starter.

The Bulls personally bring nothing to secure against so we are reliant on the charity of volunteers. Hats off to them for the amazing efforts in turning up and repainting etc but nobody will be building a stadium for us for free so unless something changes and we start bringing our own capital to the table we will remain in limbo

Council are confident in overturning Dunnies listed status.

Good. Some people may like that sort of thing, but re-labelling 60s and 70s concrete horrors as "Brutalist" doesn't suddenly make them worth saving in my opinion.

I noticed in the T&A that someone tried to set Dunn's alight recently but the fire was put out fairly quickly. Seems inevitable that something like that will happen again. With the Fire Brigade Union about to go on strike if Dunn's was to go up again during that it might be the end of the place.

Right then, the next time the Fire Brigade are on strike I expect to see you and Pumpetypump heading up to the Richard Dunn with a petrol can and a box of Swan Vesta's.

Your club needs you

Surely they can pull the 'concrete rot' caper that was used to flatten Don Valley? There's a convenient hole over the road to dump the rubble in?

That’s good news if it happens. Bonkers it was ever listed

Fully expect if it loses listed status that there won't be a nice ground in it for us. More likely some more houses.

Bradford and district does seem to be very flammable. The number of mills (many of which were listed) which have mysteriously been victims of arson over the past few years is staggering.

It is a shame they couldn’t just list the entirety of Keighley. Be a right good excuse to torch the toilet of a town.
