That maintenance cost was being shouldered solely by the club under the previous deal. Maybe a new deal would share that out between the various stakeholders ie. council, Bulls, that stock car racing bloke and RFL?

Getting it up to a safe standard (safe not necessarily decent) won’t be an issue as that’s being taken care of by the stock car promotors that have been carrying out work there.

Well that pretty much takes things forward if the Stock car people have got on board. I read about the idea but didn't know that was now on. So if the overheads for the stadium have maybe been shared somewhat and maybe even reduced to get Bulls back to Odsal I really do welcome it enormously and would guess all their fellow "big clubs" will do as well.

The "club" hardly got much sympathy when they went under, but its different people there now, so I am right behind it and look forwards to Superleague benefitting from it despite Nigel Wood being there albeit I'm at a loss to understand the venom against him.....

I can't see any new owner going and the first thing he has to do is spend millions on Odsal, It's not going to happen. Even if they think they might want to go back there, money has to found for the ground to get a safety certificate before a single game is played there again.

Stock cars are in the final stages of getting a safety certificate, first event is next Saturday.

This positive news of what the plan is and that the plan is working contrasts heavily with the idea Bulls need to find £Millions they ain't got and so will never get back to Odsal or be a Superleague club ever again. I hope all goes great for the stock cars.......

Fixtures for Stock Cars and Bulls were discussed together so they would avoid any clashes. Both are leasing stadium from RFL with no priority unlike what we see with Huddersfield and Hull FC who both come secondary to football.

Seems the guy who didn't want to pay while Bradford were in The Championship, is willing to fund a NRL club. https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/league/12 ... um=twitter

Thanks for the facts and the considered view.

It doesn't correlate with the idea Bulls are dead and gone forever as a pro club

Well done big Nige..........

Excellent news. What size of crowd will/may be allowed?
