10 grand to be Oxford's main shirt sponsor (Evolve): http://www.oxfordrl.com/2017-home-shirt-sponsorship/ Bargain short sponsorship - £500 a bum cheek. I'm hoping it was the Touch company they mention here http://www.oxfordrl.com/2017/02/blues-announce-continued-partnerships/

Hull FC fan in peace, no agenda other than I live locally.

Apologies if covered elsewhere but heard some outlandish rumours today (from a random source) which can be summarised as;
RFL have agreed to sell Odsal for housing
Richard Dunn centre will be demolished and will house a new 12k seater for you guys
RFL also to relocate Red Hall to this site.

Sounds bonkers to me but the source, although nothing whatever to do with RL, generally has their finger on local property news. Sound crazy?

Well the RFL are quitting Red Hall and "considering" Bradford. Hmm..

No hmm, see the ticks in the boxes you have listed. Any idea who is building the houses and if there are any incentives to buy one on the hallowed turf? Which may be difficult given the turf will be auctioned off a la Wembley.

I feel a competition coming on, the name of the estate, and the roads (sorry, Lanes, Squares, Avenues, etc)

Greggs Green would fit in well with Bradford. God knows there's enough bloody Greggs shops in or around the city centre!

There might have been the tiniest glint of a possibility in all that if the RFL actually owned Odsal. However they don't.

I often wonder why we don't have a sponsorship deal with Greggs.

It won't be housing, but it is being sold and a new modest sporting village on Richard Dunn's is gathering momentum.

Another done deal, eh?

Terry Homes.

They're not built to last.
