I'd say it's more likely the governing body are a bit strapped for cash and selling off some assets.'"

Genuine question, how much did the RFL pay for the the lease?, and if they get the £750k sale price do they make a profit or a loss.
Thanks

£1.25m initially, but they devalued it by £400k in 2018...

Got to take into account they've made £125,000 a year in rent too.

And they have done nothing to ensure the upkeep of the ground. No surprise it’s depreciated.

Wouldn’t be a Bradford off-season if we didn’t have a discussion about Odsal.

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?

Pollsters doing Excellent job - say recent polls.:



One thing we’ve learnt from the sale package, the stockcars have a lease until 2041

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.
