A poop from Wood will bust anything it lands on.

As evidence I submit the sport of Rugby League.

Quote: Huddersfield1895 "What ever it is the cost of maintenance will go up every year.That's a given
For me from the outside looking in i can't see how the Bulls can afford to return to Odsal the the near future as i can't see where the money will come from as it wasn't there before, not unless there is a sugar daddy waiting in the wings which obviously i wouldn't be aware of.'"


You've no idea what the cost of maintenance is. Maintenance costs go up and down depending on what needs fixing or replacing. It isn't index linked. There is only one stand and only the roof is an actual structure. The terracing is not that old.

Quote: Maccbull_BigBullyBooaza "That maintenance cost was being shouldered solely by the club under the previous deal. Maybe a new deal would share that out between the various stakeholders ie. council, Bulls, that stock car racing bloke and RFL? Let’s be honest the twisted tale of our largest shareholder’s involvement with the club before and after him leaving the RFL is pretty murky.

Getting it up to a safe standard (safe not necessarily decent) won’t be an issue as that’s being taken care of by the stock car promotors that have been carrying out work there.

It may also be motivated by the news yesterday that Kirklees council have only been allowed to allow 700 fans to return to Tetley’s stadium after COVID.

Either way as someone who has had great memories from watching games at the old girl over the last 30 years I’m not massively excited about a return “home”.'"

I don't see how the RFL can help the Bulls return to Odsal financially than they are already doing.
My understanding is that the rent they charged was very reasonable and the RFL being penurious i can't see how they can reduce it if the Bulls returned and certainly won't be able to help with the Maintenance costs, Nigel Wood is kidding himself if he thinks this will happen, but he could proof me wrong.
He's leaving the RFL for me raised more questions than answers

Maintenance costs never go down year on year.
If the Bulls can't afford to pay there share of maintenance costs they won't be returning to Odsal, and for the record I WANT THE BULLS TO RETURN TO ODSAL

We’ve no idea what’s going on behind the scenes and being honest I’ve more faith that every single COVID contract handed out to a Tory donor or peer was above board than the shenanigans around odsal stadium.

Well that pretty much takes things forward if the Stock car people have got on board. I read about the idea but didn't know that was now on. So if the overheads for the stadium have maybe been shared somewhat and maybe even reduced to get Bulls back to Odsal I really do welcome it enormously and would guess all their fellow "big clubs" will do as well.

The "club" hardly got much sympathy when they went under, but its different people there now, so I am right behind it and look forwards to Superleague benefitting from it despite Nigel Wood being there icon_eek.gif albeit I'm at a loss to understand the venom against him.....

Quote: Huddersfield1895 "I can't see any new owner going and the first thing he has to do is spend millions on Odsal, It's not going to happen. Even if they think they might want to go back there, money has to found for the ground to get a safety certificate before a single game is played there again.'"


Stock cars are in the final stages of getting a safety certificate, first event is next Saturday.

This positive news of what the plan is and that the plan is working contrasts heavily with the idea Bulls need to find £Millions they ain't got and so will never get back to Odsal or be a Superleague club ever again. I hope all goes great for the stock cars.......

Fixtures for Stock Cars and Bulls were discussed together so they would avoid any clashes. Both are leasing stadium from RFL with no priority unlike what we see with Huddersfield and Hull FC who both come secondary to football.

Seems the guy who didn't want to pay while Bradford were in The Championship, is willing to fund a NRL club.

Make sure they scrub up on the laws surrounding New Zealand pensions...

Thanks for the facts and the considered view.

It doesn't correlate with the idea Bulls are dead and gone forever as a pro club icon_rolleyes.gif

Well done big Nige..........

Excellent news. What size of crowd will/may be allowed?
