| How is Headingley a disgrace? Combines the beautiful new stand with the traditional old terracing and old-style two-tiered seating stand. It's wonderful.

Some denizens of flat pack stadia have to try and displace their upset at not being able to afford to stay at their beloved spiritual homes.

I agree it is ' state of the art ' , 15% 2000,s state of the art, 85% 1920,s state of the art , it is a dump similar to Wheldon Road and Belle View, only bigger

Headingley, unlike the two grounds named, meets the criteria of Framing the Future to the letter, as well as comfortably exceeding the less onerous Super League licencing criteria.
Of course, Headingley is not a brand new stadium and that has its limitations. Leeds could have sold the land for redevelopment and have had a shiny new flat pack place somewhere built for them out of the proceeds or in partnership with a developer (Leeds city council would not have built it - they are less benevolent than other local authorities it seems). But the fans wanted to stay at Rugby League's most historically important ground. So the club has to self finance redevelopment which is a much more onerous task and moves at a slower pace. As it stands however Headingley remains perfectly fit for purpose and no one who knows what they are talking about would ever really seriously suggest otherwise.

"Most historically important ground" ?
This accolade has to go to Odsal,so iconic and important, it was "bought" by the RFL, no other groung has the same status
On a serious note, headingley is much improved but, does need an upgrade at the scoreboard end.
