We appreciate the support from the council to date, but we recognise the distinction and integrity of the planningg process.ddddddddddddWhile the delay to the rebuild means that Rhinos will revert to its original 20,000 capacity, the news has caused deep concerns at Yorkshire, who state that the completion of the scheme is essential for both the staging of International fixtures beyond 2019 and the financial sustainability of the club.The 2020-2024 major matches will be allocated in the summer of 2017, therefore this delay could mean that Headingley will no longer be considered fit for Test match cricket - or to host any World Cup matches in 2019, Arthur said.Not only does this delay impact the clubs ability to stage internationals, it would also have profound consequences to both Yorkshires and Leeds Rhinos valuable and long-standing work within the wider community.To continue the vast amount of work within the Leeds area, the club is dependent on retaining international cricket.The clubs Grant Funding Application submitted to Leeds City Council in July 2016, projected that the redevelopment would account for £5.75m of additional visitor spend in Leeds and £5.3m county-wide per annum.
