The owners of VP apparently wanted an annual rent that was way beyond the reach of the club - I heard at least half a million quid a year. There are no current plans to develop Odsal that go beyond vague aspirations. The free-hold is owned by the Council who are on the brink of bankruptcy like a lot of others. The leasehold was put up for sale by the RFL. If the club bought it they would still need to attract significant funding from somewhere to be able to improve the ground. Rumours abound but nothing more at this stage.
