I don't think Wire own their ground - pretty sure I read somewhere Saints would be the only SL club that owns a new-build stadium outright, but I might be wrong (I often am!).

Its a pointless arguement anyway, all these accusations that its the RL that damages the pitch is pathetic. When Everton made a complaint about the pitch, we hadnt even been on it for months. Nobody thought to take into account the location combined with so called poor draining and topped off with the worst winter in years. We even aviod playing at home during may so there is time to sort out the pitch.

Not always the most reliable of sources I know its difficult to find info anywhere else
Quote FearTheVee="FearTheVee"Didn't Wakey sell their stadium and now they're leasing it back, or have I made that up?'"
Apparently owned by Wakefield Trinity Wildcats

Quote FearTheVee="Leaguefan"Don't think Odslum is owned by the Bulls either. '"
Owner - Bradford Bulls
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Odsal_Stadium
Quote FearTheVee="FearTheVee"I don't think Wire own their ground '"
Owner - Warrington Sports Holding - which I believe is the holding company for Wire
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halliwell_Jones_Stadium

I'd agree often they are joint ventures, however often the councils will simply "give" the club their share of the ground or not demand a share in the first place. For instance, and I could be wrong in this, but I was under the impression that for Cas & Wakeys new stadiums the council would provide £2m each without demanding a share of ownership of the ground. Although I can't see the private companies involved doing similar!
Still not sure about Hull KR, can't really find any definitive info about New Craven Park, although to be honest Im not trying that hard!

| The KC is owned by the council, they would have a riot on their hands plus have to find 30million quid to rebuild the Boulevard if they tried to kick FC out. If anything it is City that would have most to lose from this ruling as it would effectively mean they couldn;t be promoted without finding a new stadium to play in.

| Trinity have sold BV and are due to receive the balance upon their departure from the ground. Next season is their last regardless of what happens at the planning meeting due in September. They will not own the new stadium but will be anchor tenants. The Wakefield & District Community Trust will own the stadium.

| Wigan own a ground. Wigan council wouldn't help Whelan with the cost of a new stadium for Latics, but when Whelan bought Wigan RL, they then helped with the cost, around 50%, as it would be used for both sports. What the terms of the contract state, i don't know, but for Whelan to buy Wigans lease out would then give Wigan a healthy sum to start looking elsewhere.
It would be unfair for Latics to be kicked out of the PL because they share with an RL club.
