If the guy suddenly comes up with £5million or £15million I would think that British and Spanish Authorities may take an interest.

he doesn't tehnically have to come up with it just show the board that he is good for it which he hasn't done yet. Most over here in East Hull are pretty sceptical tbh and the board are playing it cool also

Rumours of an all-weather race track to be built at Barton maybe ?

| If he buys the stadium for the quoted £26m, would that include all surrounding land or will he have to buy the land, or does he want that throwing in as a sweetener

I thought the rest of the land was for retail units next to the stadium and all the remainder, next to the Ship Canal, was for "Port Salford".

| Quote RED LEAGUE="RED LEAGUE"When you say profits a pound could be a profit? I know for a fact no club in super league make serious profits its a myth without the wealthy benafactors in the game it's dead. FACT!'"
It's true that no-one would invest in a rugby club to make money out of the club. However, you can have a policy like at Leeds, Wigan, Wire ( and others, I'm sure ) that the club makes a modest profit whilst being a serious competitor for trophies. There is a monumental difference between making £1 profit every year and losing £250,000 a year, as ten years of the former will leave you in good shape, ten years of the latter puts you in Salford's or Bradford's position.

| Quote Father Ted="Father Ted"The new investors at clubs are not throwing money at their own place.
Wigan make a profit with Lenagan in charge.
Moran makes a profit at Wire.
Saints will go into profit 2013 McManus has said.
Caddick makes Hetherington get a profit out of Leeds.
Khan will make a profit in a year or two after his investment.
Davy is trying to do the same at Hudds after underwriting losses.
Pearson will have HullFC making a profit, not difficult there .
The days of major benefactors pouring money down a Rugby League drainhole are mostly gone or very much on the way out.
They are all running their clubs on the basis of well run commercial outfits.
My club, Wigan, are now making yearly profits and winning trophies. Leeds and Wire are doing the same.
If clubs continually lose money the day of financial reckoning will come. Make a profit and you're in business forever.
I do think this generation of club owners are very good for their own clubs and Rugby League in general.
I do wish you good fortune in turning the finances around.'"
People seem to be taking the mickey out of the above but there is a good deal of truth in it. Certainly Saints, Pies, Wire, Rhinos are in this position. Hull, given their gates, could well be so if managed properly. We'll have to see whether new management at Salford and Bulls can deliver.

There is no room around the stadium for a racecourse. But around three miles away , close to Worsley is where the proposed track is wanted. But residents have opposed it for years.
