HIRST PROVIDES UPDATE ON ODSAL LEASE

CEO, Jason Hirst, has provided the latest update with regards to the Odsal Stadium lease:

“As part of its open and transparent approach, we the club, have, as promised, kept fans and followers fully up to date with regard to developments on its bid to secure the lease of the historic Odsal Stadium, home to Bradford Northern/Bulls since 1934. 

The club hasn’t and won’t comment for the mere sake of it, it will only comment upon facts once they’re established. 

Whilst recognising and appreciating that this is an understandably quite lengthy process that the RFL and Knight Frank are undertaking, the club equally recognises that fans want to be regularly kept up to date on developments. 

As such, after proactively contacting the RFL for an update, the club can now reveal that the RFL has confirmed that it is moving into the final stages of the process, with work having been undertaken with each of the parties from whom interest had previously been received. The RFL's position remains that the process is completed by mid-summer with all appropriate governance having been undertaken by then.   

The club thanks its fans and followers for their patience and will issue further statements as and when things develop."
