Sounds to have hit a few stumbling blocks

Yes, I've just read the same.

Hope this is just a minor glitch, and they can get beyond it.

Let's see if Carter and minnards have got the best interests of the club in their hearts or only interested in lining their own pockets. Il go for a pound Carter. Please go and give us our club back your not real fans

Thought it had hit the rocks it should have been announced this last week.
It needs to be moved on and quickly. To give any kind of a chance of avoiding relegation
.

Absolutely !! and watching Cas we’re def not out of the battle if given a chance !

A new owner with a broader outlook, a real Wakefield Trinity fan as well.
If this happens soon I have no doubt whatsoever that the fans will be 100% reinvigorated

Long term it has to be a massive positive step forward

Don't get the drama on RW&B.
If he takes full ownership of the club he'd have to take the council loan on. Who else is going to take it.

If he's taking all shares, so Minnards and Carter shares, you'd normally pay off their money, though Carter has previously said he wouldn't call it in......but the shares still need to be bought. You don't just give it for free.

I'm sure they'll work it out.

the loan will be repayed, but now they suddenly want their directors loans back and want to charge the club 200k a year to use the stand. It's obvious we have no.money so without a takeover it ain't looking good. Will someone please explain to me how the hell they can charge 200grand when it was our money, the people of wakefields money. I tell you why the drama because of the distrust of our board

That just can't be right.
If he takes on the loan and the shares there is nothing for them to charge for.

I'll wait to see what the outcome is but sounds like someone has found a snippet of info and tried to make something if it.

is there not something in the wording of the spirit of 1873. Basically they want 200 grand a year paying into the spirit of 1873 to use the new stand and they are still the trustees it bull shxt. I wish they would just go they've done enough damage to our club

Vastman kept suggesting he only wanted a £1 to sell the club. I guess this means he didn’t know that to be a fact.

What he said was that he'd sell the club, with all the debts for a £1. Slightly different.

You can't lump Carter and Minnards together. Or the other two shareholders for that matter.
There wouldn't be a club without Carter but I get some don't like his budgeting
But more recently, there wouldn't be a stadium without Minnards.

You need to be more accurate with your vitriol.

If you don't know what is in the details of So1873, how do you know they want £200k and remain trustees.
Also, trustees don't make money as far as I know so not sure why that's a problem either.

I see it another way, there would not be the ground in the possession of the club without the council loaning £3.1M which in reality is the money belonging to me and every other tax payer in WMDC.
There would not be the money for Minards to build a stand without WMDC ensuring 106 Payments were made available to do so. Again money indirectly out of the pockets of WMDC tax payers.
(By the way if WMDC had done their job right in the first place we would have had far more than a stand and a slight refurbishment.)
So Technically it all belongs to the club thanks to us Tax payers. Morally I don't think it should benefit Carter and Minards in anyway whatsoever.

I suppose wouldn’t have been a stadium without Amazon either.

Be interesting how this pans out from here on in. Because if it comes out in the wash that a deal fell through due to unreasonable obstacles being put in the way by the current incumbents then natives are going to get very restless thats for sure. Lets hope it works itself out.

Can i ask who matthew ellis is

I'm lumping them together they need to go the club is a complete shambles

I guess these comment are the ideal way so no one wants the club.
Everyone who puts their hand up and hard erned income for trin deserves respect
If a new owner does read all this vitriol dont people think it might put him off putting his hand up to help.
worth a thought folk.

It doesn't add up to me, hope it isn't true.

It's never easy, is it?

CEO / Owner of D.I.Y. Kitchens i think

It doesn't benefit them.
But even Carter says Minnards is responsible for the negotiations to get all those things you mention.

Rubbish it was non negotiable if WMDC had done their job from the outset. He just happened to be around in the right place at the right time. I have used this phrase before, " He managed to salvage a few crumbs that was left behind by the rats" WE have something but been drastically short changed big Style.

What a load of rubbish! If a new owner only wants his ego stroking 24/7 then maybe owning a sports club isn't for them in the first place?
