What happens if they lose their franchise in 2015 due to the ground not meeting the criteria? icon_confused.gif



Will the RFL have a word with itself and come to some agreement?? d040.gif

Yes just like that, or practically giving season tickets away which isn't paying the bills.

A bit of useless info but the old Odsal bowl holds the record for the biggest challenge cup final crowd. I think. icon_smile.gif.

Was the world record rugby attendance until about 10 years ago when the NRL got a double header in at the Olympic Stadium in Sydney before the capacity was reduced.

Surely this is a conflict of interest for the RFL ,or in simple terms does this mean Bradford are exempt from ever having to apply for a franchise ?

Unless of course they fall behind in paying the rent . icon_surprised.gifops:

From Guinness World Records website

The greatest attendance at any Rugby League match is 107,558 for the National Rugby League Grand Final played at Stadium Australia, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia on 26 September 1999, when Melbourne defeated St George Illawarra: 20 – 18

I've not read anything else about this, but is the idea to have our own stadium for playing major games in?

If so, then the RFL should be applauded on a bit of forward thinking for once, not only do we now have a secure ground where we can play major matches which is central to the sports heartland, but they will also get financial input from the Bulls paying rent. Win/win to my mind as they are no longer held to the whims of Old Traffords staff?

If not, what the hell are they playing at?




or should I just go and read something about the subject before spouting off? icon_biggrin.gif
