An historic day indeed!

Whoooooopie

Superb news! It's all falling into place. Bring on the permission

A long time coming, but worth the wait.

HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY. Had the Conservative election candidate round my house on wednesday, he says should the Tories take control of Wakey they will be right behind the idea as they are already. BUT, we all know what our trusted MP's are like. Candy, Baby and all that.

A very big step. Bang on!

And in a similar vein, it occurred to me today that there are potentially only 26 first team fixtures left at Belle Vue after well over a hundred years. On the basis that I will probably miss 4 or 5 a season, due to holiday and other commitments, after Sunday I might only have 15 more Belle Vue experiences left.

Brilliant news!

Fingers crossed for the plans! Welldone to all concerned, now lets get working towards the next phase!

obst as signed for whitehaven and is taking danny with him

now we begin

What a wonderful way to start a season that already has good prospects. Let's have this stadium approved!

Brilliant news

Is it on the mwdc website yet?

One small step for Trinity.........

Fingers crossed for the giant leap (and no, I don't mean DB to Huddersfield!)

Brill news just what we all needed

Good news indeedeedoo.







Is this now the end of the beginning.

I would call it more the true beginning of the start. Wonderful news that the dream is now turning into reality

As a new poster and a fan of over 50years (I was at Wembley for the last time we won the Challenge Cup in 1963) I would like to add my congratulations to everybody at Yorkcourt and Wiska for the effort put into getting us to this point in the process of achieving our ambitions.It must be in the long term interests of the council to make a speedy decision on the matter, not only for the jobs it will bring to the area but also for the amount of business rates that will be payable once the whole project is completed. I look forward to sitting in the Neil Fox or David Topliss stand, visiting the Brian Briggs Burgerbar and the Peter Box toilet facilities !!

Did anyone see in the Wakefield express this Friday an article 'power station' plan approved.

In it it says that the residens on Newmarket Lane lost a battle against proposals for a 'power Station' this week.

Basically the plans are for a development that will turn methane at the old colliery into electricity 24hrs a day, seven days a week for up to 25 years. Plannin officers recommended the application for approval.

Surely this will only strengthen our planning application ?

Yes Phil its good news, but hardly a big hurdle.

It was only a matter of time the application went in, the real work starts now.

It’s not as if W.M.D.C. are going to just rubber stamp this application any time soon.

I hope that the debacle over T.P. is not mimicked in any way. I’ve no idea how much influence certain councillors have in the planning procedure, but, it fills me with dread when there are conflicts of interest in the higher echelons of the council.

The application will be bouncing back and forth between YorkCourt & the Town Hall for an age, as the council planners pick it to bits and demand amendments. I just hope at the end of the day, when it finally comes before the Councillors, they don’t let us down again.

Great news

DA

I think the reason for the delay in submission is that the has been some 'foreplay' going on already and we all hope that this part is already sorted

Welcome to Rlfans, you'll go a long way

A noise report i believe.
Which i feel is a very valid reason for the delay, without it opposition would have far greater scope for criticism, however if you have documented evidence to suggest these factors have been given proper consideration and have been successfully factored into the design there are far fewer areas which are vulnerable to exploitation, either by the opposition (WCCG) or the media (WE). This i believe shows the difference between our projects and those being pushed by other SL clubs.
We are (and it feels strange saying this about WT) being very professional and astute in our approach, doing things quietly, without a constant media fan-fair, and appear to be moving at great speed when you consider how long the project has existed.

Documentation such as this is vital to the success of this project, and our future.
As other people have said, this is only the start of the beginning, but let's not underestimate how big a step this is, and thank those who have worked so hard, and continue to do so!
