Thanks Gardener, that seems contrary to what AFC have been saying all along about multi use of the stadium. They have large debts that need servicing. However, there are a shed load of flats on the sight so can see why they're not happy.

Exactly.
A lot of whinging about "what if's" after accepting that they won't go over the allowed 104 games a year....and that's the only important thing. The Ground was built to benefit the local area and therefore, it being used as often as possible is important....I reckon local Pubs will be delighted of the friendly passing trade that we bring.
You'll find that the "local residents/businesses' cited are a handful (if that) and whilst they may have to endure an additional dozen match days, the fan numbers of London Broncos are hardly going to require road closures.
