Happy Hunter 370 Posted August 23, 2022 Which owner are we talking about here? The City Council own the land, Beaumont Sports Complex Ltd. lease the land from them on a long lease and the Bates rent the stadium from them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you didnt know any better, you could actually be forgiven for thinking that no one is really in charge of this sport giving it the clear direction it needs, and that clubs can just make things up as they go along to suit themselves....

Finishes up the same every season fixture wise,why does someone in charge at BSPA keep an eye on what’s going on.It’s Ok Leicester saying we’ve finishes our League fixtures but then to say we can’t race a meaningful Championship match for the next month is wrong. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well this has come from the man who has built the stadium itself . Again I'm not saying it's all true I'm just passing on information. Don't shoot the messenger.
