Seems a bit silly for someone worth circa £400m, who owns a company with £50m+ annual turnover, to be reaching a sticking point over paying someone back the £650k they are owed. It's pennies to Sawrij, his company will have earned that much in the next fortnight!
You want rid of Green it's simple - pay him his money back.

I have a doubt over the £360m on his Wikipedia page.

You need to be wary about anything on their it's as reliable as Gledhill.

Bfd Met, along with Calderdale, were going to build such a plant at Bowling Back Lane last year, but it was backheeled late in the day. Not entirely sure why, but I think it had something to do with a grant failing to materialise which screwed up the finances. IIRC the Govt money went on to fund a similar scheme in Leeds [no surprise there then].

I'd guess a private company may well find it a good investment and Odsal would be ideal, given its past use, ease of access and sheer size. I'd guess the council would get a fair old price for the land and be able to provide a suitable ground for the Bulls, maybe to be built by the new owner. Wouldn't want to be a fly on the wall in the meeting between company, club, council and RFL - I think I've got headache already.

Not shocked at all that it ended up going to Leeds! This seems like the logical reason for Sawrij to be involved, as you say it means the government may not have to fund this project and the council will receive a lot of money for the land. Almost like their work is being done for them in terms of Sawrij developing the Odsal site. If I am honest I am all for a recycling plant or something similar to be built! The more of those the merrier! Be nice if we could get one of those energy producing recycling plants! Could use it to power Odsal

Gledipaedia - when the source is more likely to be Heinz (Ben Kavanagh's tweet) than reliable.

Read a snippet on Sunday Times and he was £50m in late noughties, £42m the year after. And Courier has £56m in 2011.

Not that it isn't to be sniffed at btw.

Part of me would rather we were liquidated so that Green gets f**k all.

I think the 400m quoted is the value of his company tbh.
