According to the season ticket flyers for 2011, this is what Headingley could look like with a few bricks, a lick of paint and several million pounds:







This was posted on SS - I've not got many details unfortunately. Looks pretty neat though.



You can now start moaning about the lack of a roof on the "away" end

posted on the Licences thread...

My bad

About time

That's what happens when you don't go cap in hand to the local authority or football club. These things take a bit of time.





Anyway, it's not as if our licence is under threat is it?

So the away fans still get wet? Is that really acceptable in 2012?

Council didn't build or fund the LSV , or the local footy team either , they cannot afford to play there anyway

Only those who choose to stand on the Western Terrace

Maybe we should have gone ' cap in hand ' to the local university , they might have built ' part ' of a stand for us

They came to us





What you also need to remember is that Leeds CF&A, the parent company of Leeds Rhinos, has funded many of the developments on the cricket side of the ground (including the Western Terrace, the East Stand and hotel and the Wintershed Stand) and various corporate facilities. The Carnegie Stand was largely funded from the sale of the cricket ground, with Leeds Met becoming a partner as they looked to extend their own facilities.



It's all about prioritising. For the past ten years, the cricket side of the ground was the biggest priority for Leeds in order to retain test cricket. To say that Leeds haven't invested in Headingley is completely inaccurate.

There was no way possible of adding a roof on the stand due to the houses behind.

Looks nice, but all you Leeds fans know your going to get many fans complaining that there isnt a roof over the away end....
