Their just published accounts cover the period 1st January - 31st December 2025, Wakefield were in SL in 2025.

The last twice I've visited less than half the sinks in the gents had running water.

For comparison Dewbury's leasehold was valued at £1.5m in their accounts for the year ending Nov '25, re-valued in 2024 from the previous £400k.

Also none of the minimum standards should have a 'unless your stand was built pre-' clause making the minimum standard not the actual minimum....

Bradford were not graded A.

The deal was announced as completed at the end of January 2025 by Jonathan Hyland from Knight Frank who said: “We have now completed this complex and important deal. Lawyers have worked forensically through the final details to ensure each party was happy and a satisfactory decision was reached." The Bulls themselves making an announcement just before Xmas 2024 would have been the time to promote season ticket sales.

The RFL would have to make a massive U-turn for that.....

Really? When did Dewsbury acquire the freehold to be able to sell it?

Nothing to argue about different horses for courses, but the whole thing was slightly odd with the asset being included (at the higher valuation) in filed accounts (for year ending Nov '24) before it was announced that the sale had been completed (Jan '25).....

You do know that they regularly get 'strike off' notices posted in the Gazette for late filing? Their last being in April of this year.

Although worth pointing out that they cover the year ending 30th Nov '25, so their last year in the Championship. Next year's covering the 1st year (back) in SL will be more of interest.

Actual amounts are irrelevant, Huddersfield can service their debts, Fev couldn't. It's that simple.

10 is probably about it.

At one time they did. Edit: just noticed that @Leyther_Matt has already pointed this out.
