It's going to be turned into something. Padel courts, possibly.
If there's a glitch with planning permission for the development, renting it next season might be possible, but I'd guess the buyers are confident there'll be no problems.
League "Blazers" are (rightly) not keen on clubs renting grounds for less than a season. If clubs get turfed-out mid-season, as Hendon did (Allegedly! Ahem!) things get awkward. "One off" grounds have to be found and away clubs might have to travel on Friday or Sunday at relatively short notice. League "Blazers" don't like that. Mr. Rogers & Mr. Gumm were very generous to homeless Hendon, but they still had to play a few games at Northwood and Staines. There was grumbling around the boardrooms of preferential treatment.
I doubt Earlsmead will still be there next August.
