Jersey Bulls have had to postpone their only pre-season friendly for a second time following a Covid outbreak among the opposition.
Bulls had been due to face Buckingham-based Risborough Rangers at Springfield Stadium next Saturday (24 July).
The fixture had previously been postponed due to travel restrictions but has now been rescheduled until 2022.
Both Jersey Bulls and Risborough Rovers were unbeaten in the league in their previous two seasons.
Earlier in the summer, it was announced that the inaugural VBET Cup would be postponed until 2022 because of coronavirus rules. The knockout pre-season tournament would have seen three UK-based sides travel to Jersey.
“In the longer term, (they want) hotel accommodation in there as well.”
Mr Gleeson said the developer was interested in retaining partial ownership of the precinct. The plan proposes the future hub include a community club, a brewery, a market place and hotel.
“Our ideal scenario is to have a development partner who can deliver the proposed plan better,” Mr Gleeson said.
“Springfield City Group would use their land ownership as their equity into the deal and someone else brings their expertise or their capital.”
He said the opportunity was flexible and the seller would not rule anything out, provided the precinct itself was “underpinned by hospitality”.
