    Rumour has it that Ashley has bought the ground and agreed to a leaseback deal.

    Soon to be the Sports Direct stadium perhaps

    I don’t know but £23m is the quoted sale price with Yorks paying almost £1m a year rent.
    Is about 4.4% annual return on a 23m investment the going rate ?

    Caddicks company used to own the site and they leased it to the egg chasers, but it may have changed

    A quick Google suggests its possibly a little low - although hosting some large concerts or other cricket (100, tests or ODIs, etc.) could improve that. Office spaces normally give 5-5.5%, and shopping centres up to 7.5%.

    How is the main stand divided out? Is there a central wall or is it a joint concourse with partitioned retaining wall?

    Headingley Stadium is a stadium complex in Headingley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, England, comprising two separate grounds, Headingley Cricket Ground and Headingley Rugby Stadium, linked by a two-sided stand housing common facilities. The grounds are the respective homes of Yorkshire County Cricket Club and Leeds Rhinos Rugby League Club.

    It's a weird structure. Two tiers on the Rugby League side and three on the Cricket side.
