Dodgy question I know but I can't see how anyone would know if you left your room and just walked into the rugby ground (ie. If you bought a hotel room but no rugby tickets).....

M j M Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 (edited) It depends how much interest Ashley takes of the shared operation or if he just lets Yorkshire carry on operating it as tenants. With his arrival if I were Leeds I'd have done some checks to ensure the legal agreements concerning access and revenues around the shared bits are as robust as they should be. Either party could cause major headaches for the other if they really put their minds to it. Edited November 3, 2023 by M j M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fieldofclothofgold Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 (edited) Mike Ashley buying Headingley cricket ground. I bet the Rugby club are checking the legalities. After Radrizzani put Elland road up as collateral in order to buy Sampdoria LCC made the stadium " an asset to the community " .whatever Ashley's plans are for the cricket ground I hope LCC are keeping an eye on things . SF49ers have since acquired ER I believe Edited November 3, 2023 by fieldofclothofgold Soon we will be dancing the fandangoFROM 2004,TO DO WHAT THIS CLUB HAS DONE,IF THATS NOT GREATNESSTHEN i DONT KNOW WHAT IS.JAMIE PEACOCK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do for a bit in north stand but I've been to the east stand a few times and they don't there (often anyway ) Obviously I'm not suggesting being dodgy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've stayed at the hotel a couple of times, huge beds and Sky Sports, reasonable price too. FWIW the ticket checking once you are in the ground depends on the stand and entrance.

redjonn Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 They use a number of the hotel rooms for corporate box's for the cricket - balcony and sliding window doors facing the cricket. It's run by the rugby club so I assume the cricket pay for usage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griff Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 I was reading the ground regs for Headingley and you're not allowed to wear a bullet proof vest. I wondered if anyone had ever tried that.

graveyard johnny Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 hope Mike Ashley has no plans to supply any of the sporting equipment at either the cricket or rugby side - his Chinese made tat wont last 2 minutes no matter if hes stuck Dunlop or Slazenger on it or not see you later undertaker - in a while necrophile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
