Let's hope we don't have those To$$ers from Keighley coming on and moaning that it's unfair. If they need funding they could sell Keighley for rubbish tipping.

Ooooh good one.

I'll remember that next time I try to negotiate through Bradfords more er, "downmarket" areas.

Lest you forget, us tossers in Keighley pay rates into Bradfords coffers.

I cant see City ever moving to Odsal. VP is a better developed stadium and the emotional ties are just too great for their supporters.

I personally wouldnt be too bothered if the Bulls moved to VP, PROVIDED it was a genuine ground share (with joint branding). When we were there in 2001 and 2002 it just didnt feel like our home ground. Get over that problem and the economics seem to be overwhelming.

Link Odsal Sports Village must be built by the end of 2011, according to the Bradford College expert drafted in to held push the project through. Ronnie Todd, who is behind the college’s new sports academies, wants the long-awaited scheme completed within the same time frame as the college and university accommodation strategies.

Unless things have changed dramatically the Uni is in the process of demolishing all its halls of residence & entering rental agreements with the private sector. Unless Todd means general property in the term accommodation; even then the Uni is consolidating on the main campus. The biggest challenge the Uni faces is attracting new students due to the perceived 'Bradford factor'. It does well in the overseas studnet market but that is very volatile, the majority of the rest are home based Asian students who are traditionally under represented in HE. This makes the extra curricular side very different to a traditional Uni in that they tend to go home every night. The College, I thought, was just finishing its relocation, apart from the much debated refurbishment of the Odeon site.
