I can see you now, walking round your adopted country, promenading in your socks, Jesus sandles, union jack shorts, UKIP t shirt, hanky on head, heading to the Merry Monk in Los Cristianos for a game of darts n doms with other down-trodden plebs while putting the world to rights.

I know longer live in Tenerife

Point stands though. Leeds wants to be a world class city then it needs world class facilties like Manchester or Liverpool etc..

According to the BBC website we are only renting the stands that are to be built.
I would imagine there will be a charge on the the rest of the land and buildings should the debt ever be defaulted on.
However the Leeds City Council will be holding a meeting in April, so maybe its not all cut and dried,unless just a case of dotting the i's and crossing the t's.
Does that also means that Gary's threat of contracts having to be signed by the end of this week was another porky.

Gary telling Porkys - surely not there are a number of Loiners, 81 to be exact, on here stand on the side of the River Aire to watch him walking on the surface

On the flip side, there are several other posters, that stand on the side of the River Aire, throwing concrete slabs at him whilst he walks on the surface.

So this investor will own both stands and the clubs pay rent .will the clubs eventually regain ownership ?

This set up looks suspiciously like the pfi system used by both labour and conservatives government. This was used to build schools and hospitals. It's widely acknowledged to be an extremely expensive system for any client . The client being the British taxpayer, in this case it would be Leeds RL and Yorkshire cricket.
In defence of Yorkshire cricket it may be the only route they could take to facilitate the project. Let's face it would you lend money to somebody who was already in debt to the tune of 24 million pound.

But... and its a big but, IF YCC and Leeds can get a decent wodge of cash for stadium naming rights then this can offset a sizable chunk.

Pretty big IF though.
