I highly doubt he has much interest in Rugby League on numorus occasions he was asked about investing in Oldham Athletic or the town and has shown little interest.

Alot of the staduims used for the 2010 Football World cup are now White Elephants and with the cost still being picked up today. One reason now why so many countries are wary about hosting International events Italy still paying for Italia 90.

Said for years both Channel 4 or Channel 5 should take a punt on lower key sports. IMO this will be good for Rugby League main stream TV, free to air while pubs will be busy and still early in the day.

On paper this looked a good idea just the wrong timing with Covid happening and all. Its a shame if all these clubs want to continue that the RFL cannot step in somehow and see over a sustainable time how these clubs can continue to develop and expand the game. Good to see the Dutch League still going

Its now houses for years it was used by Oldham Athletic as its training centre and held home games for youth matches. There was plans to build a new staduim for Oldham Athletic it never happened. Avro FC where playing there but now tennets of The Whitebank staduim used a few years ago by Oldham Roughyheads who took it over from Oldham Boro/Town who folded.
