Rohan's not happy with certain players for abandoning the club but can you honestly blame those that have chosen to leave. Only the senior players Pryce Sidlow Welham have been kept in loop with what little information they've been told. There has been no communication despite the administrator appearing in the paper everyday contradicting himself. The negligent regard for player welfare throughout all this has been nothing short of abysmal. Fingers crossed for tomorrow morning.

Are you gonna give us a clue as to how you know things. I do tend to believe you do know something, as I do el red does as well. I find a couple of bits out through my son, he's not always right though, I know Sheff have spoke to a couple of Bulls players or rather spoke to their agents. I'm guessing that is just to assess the lie of the land at this moment in time

I'm sure I've heard the same about someone buying the club. Several times.

Hope it's a new beginning. Feel for you guys, after disliking you immensely a few years ago you are close to becoming my third favourite club (after Wakey and Dewsbury) because you have had far more than you deserve!

You can get a season pass with Premier which is just pay for year saving a couple of months money

| Ye gods, more people, 'in the know'.

I'm up to the brim with 'experts'. In these post truth days I've had it with them, so I'm off to organise a vox pop in the pub, that should come up with the answer.

The LSV was built without any cash from the council , they provided land , private developers and government sports grants provided the funding
Surely given the relatively attractive location just off the Mway link road there is some interest from somebody
Ultimately Odsal is the problem , in theory it it should pay for itself and produce income , but it looks like it is now just a financial noose , squeezing the life out of the bulls bank account
There has to be another option

The land is in a prime location. Only problem is that it has a bloody massive hole in the middle of it surrounded by rubbish of unknown substances.

It's hardly rocket science.
Couple that with retail, hotels etc and old police station site there's enough land and opportunities to shake a stick at.
Let's see what happens.

| This STILL not resolved?
I fail to believe that this should drag out the way it has been doing.
Just another bad chapter in a shambolic last few years for the club.

...and sausage the staff & players in the process. It happens but, Hell, it is wrong. At least it sounds as if the tea lady will still be there even if she needs to be retrained as a cognac & champers lady.
In the spirit of identity guessing, and since we've all read about unknown substances in the landfill, may Bongser politely point out that
KCn is the formula for Potassium Cyanide
Ba for Barium &
BT for a certain phone provider.
Some more unhealthy than others

Spot on Woolly.
The site was used for tipping up to the 1930s - a time when chemicals of any, and every, sort were used indiscriminately, without licence, by people working in all sorts of industries who hadn't a clue what it was or what its problems were. This was dumped in sites like Odsal, without any note taken of what, or where, it was - it was just rubbish and it went on the tip.
It's been covered over. Legend says it lies a metre or so below ground level but if it were to be disturbed, Pandora's box probably wouldn't compete. It would need a specialist company to remove the stuff - when you'd found out which kind of specialist you needed.

So Odsal remains as what for perpetuity ? , eventually something has to give , it isn't viable as a Sports stadium any longer , if the Bulls remain there all we will see is more of what we are now witnessing , is anybody going to seriously throw 20/30/50 million at it to use as an ' event ' venue of any kind ?
