Thanks Bullseye. That doesn't sound like we've bought the lease from the RFL, if we've only committed to 18 months.

Unless there has been a change in who's responsible for the liabilities and a reduction in rent might as well start preparing for liquadition two.

That's my fear and something that isn't addressed in any detail anywhere publically.

Well surely the running costs, maintenance etc is reduced by at least 50% with star trax being involved. There has been some refurbishment which might mean less running costs on things that were previously neglected.

While I still don't fully trust Wood, Mark Sawyer has been heavily involved in this process. When you look at well he runs a tight ship at Dewsbury I feel more confidence the sums have been done.

Well Chalmers clearly spent nothing on stadium upkeep barring a few floodlight bulbs. The rent was £75k a year IIRC.

I don't get where the massive costs are, as apart from the stand roof there is almost no structure - therefore nothing to catch fire or fall down. Nothing's been condemned (or has it?). And a group of stock car enthusiasts got a safety cert in a matter of a few months (huge credit to them).
"Maintenance Costs!!!", screams Andrew Chalmers. What's different to any number of old stadiums of which there plenty? .

Council rates are meant to be low 6 figures. Which by all accounts are some of the highest stadium rates in rugby league

Wow! So could be 2-300K a year!

That explains a lot.

Add on another 75k in rent to the RFL.

Chalmers obviously couldn't afford even a lick of paint when we were in Championship and L1 with the overheads above.

So as Redeverready says unless something changes the chances of another financial meltdown are very real.

Re: Odsal : Tue May 25, 2021 10:16 am  
Well I’ve bought 2 season tickets.

I’m still sceptical about the ownership and even about the move back.

But the team have done enough in the last 5 games to convince me that they’re a team worth watching. I guess the only way Odsal will be sustainable is if we turn back up!

Would much rather get wet through on the Odsal terraces than make the trek to Dewsbury.
