| [quote="redeverready":2she9154]The ground quality at Odsal makes that near on impossible. The best scenario would be to sell the full Odsal complex and redevelop Horsefall.[/quote:2she9154]
I'm no builder or engineer, so are we saying factually building a new stadium isn't possible on the existing land around Odsal?
Given some of the feats we see in the building world I find that hard to believe?
I don't think the Horsfall option is a bad one, who owns that though?
Seems the club have gone all out to get the lease back, which would indicate a desire to remain there?
I do hope there are some plans being drafted up in the background and you can see why the club would keep these cards close to there chest, given them amount of egg on faces in the past.
The 2 options seem to be:
1. Get into bed with a developer and build a new stadium adjacent
2. Bit part improvement of the current footprint.

| Jason Hirst did an interview fairly recently where he talked about the stadium. Can't remember every detail but basically don't expect a purpose built stadium anytime soon. I think gradual improvements is the most likely way forward. Clearly a new stand on the popular terrace would improve the appeal of Odsal massively but the cost of construction at the moment is high - where does that capital come from?
The hospitality suite is also looking very run down, it could badly do we external steelwork repainting etc.
