Logos look awesome.

Did they disclose any of the details of the deal, such as the amount or length?

Not in the St Helens Star report anyway. That might come out later or it might not.

Fraser Deighton at Sky Sports has been tweeting pics of the stadium.

Yorkshire borrowed that money to buy the cricket stadium, not the whole complex.

Leeds CF&A Ltd (Leeds Rhinos) still own the Rugby League stadium, the pavilion (hub of the corporate facilities), the land south of the South Stand and there is a slightly complex deal regarding use of communal/circulation areas, most of which are also still owned by Leeds.
