Quote ="Bulliac"Spot on, yes. It would be interesting to know to what level they are going to 'do maintenance' - as, when it was the council's responsibility, it meant that if the RFL changed the ground rules [like, to say for instance, that all grounds must have two stands then it would have been down to the council to put up the necessary money to comply with that. Not that I can see anything like that happening today!
If it's a case of, "well, the painting can wait until next year"[or the year after it will cost considerably less. I'd guess it will be purely essential safety work that's not covered on the insurance.'"
Surely maintenance and upkeep is the responsiblty of the primary lessee...
