For 142 years, the ground has not been owned by the club. Facilities have been allowed to run down, and the club decided to move to a greenfield site elsewhere, but then decided to stay put,
which meant that the deterioration continued. But finally Leeds City Council, worried by the threat of Headingley losing Test status, came up with a £9 million loan which will enable the club to buy the ground from the "Cricket, Football and Athletic Company" for £12 million and increase its capacity to 20,000.
