Quote: Highlander "What was Huddersfield’s model? Obviously a stadium holding company but then Did they have 1 share each for the council, the rugby club and the football club? Is that feasible?'"
I think after a long drawn out argument where Ken Davy had purchased the Football Club's shares in the stadium company (KSDL) when they were skint, it eventually reverted to the ownership of Huddersfield Town (40%) Kirklees Council (40%) and Huddersfield Giants (20%)
I believe KSDL is pretty much insolvent.
Kirklees council want rid of the stadium as a liability, probably for similar reasons to Calderdale, It's reported to need £30m+ of work doing, mixture of backlogs in maintenance and other works which will keep it with a usable life upto 2040/50. I've been a few times recently and it's fairly tired under the surface. Some things haven't changed since it opened 30 years ago nearly
New Huddersfield Town owner is keen to take on the stadium, but I feel that will drag on for a long time.
