| Quote ="RDM"Where does my knowledge of Cala come from? Seeing the completed sale contract for that transaction & first hand knowledge of money being received from Cala to the satisfaction of the bank who held the previous charge over the land.
As I've said, one of the BoD told me directly that Cala no longer wanted the land & that an agreement for Yorkcourt to buy the land would result in the club getting £350k. As I stated in a previous post "the land is not in the ownership of the club" is the answer I got as to whether the land had been returned to the club pending completion of the new agreement with Yorkcourt.
I wondered how long it would take for this to be suggested....................................................but I'm afraid you're a long way off the mark with that one.
Quite possible. To expand that "devil's advocate" theory a little further I know that if Cala had wanted to sell the ground back to the club a request to provide a loan to facilitiate this would NOT have been met warmly from the club's current bank (yes, even with the collateral that could be gained from the land).
In that case it seems plausible that Ted & others could have formed another company in the IoM (to avoid issues about his IVA) to buy back the land & then sell it on to Yorkcourt.
One final thing for people to think about, the sale to Cala was agreed at the height of the construction bubble and IF they were still buying the land from us we would be due another £600k from them. If the new deal with Yorkcourt sees WT getting £350k instead, then the net result for the club (i.e. £250k less than originally planned in 2007, but paid when NM gets planning permission rather than when we leave BV) is still quite reasonable given the current market for development land.
Overall, it's just another reason why we need to get a completely clean slate through Administration & the sooner the better'"
I think it is shocking that such lack of discretion has been displayed here, I'm sure your previous employers would not be pleased that you are disclosing such details on a public forum like this.

Newmarket is not the issue here, though no doubt questions will be asked on the various 'Trusts' set up to aid the club. (And, let's be honest , the 'community' the stadium would serve the most is Wakefield Trinity RLFC.)

| Its no good waiting for answers from the club, no one believes what they say anymore, the waters very muddy.
Sadly only the Admin team can answer these questions now.
God help us over the coming months/years.

| Quote ="Roonaldo6"Hopefully if your going to represent the "Trust" in the correct manner, you wont listen and accept the usual bulls**t that you portray as been gospel from the board like you have done over the past few years.
Anyway, whenever theres a big thread on here, theres normally a comment on the Wakefield site within a few hours.... cue Elston and his cue card....
"Oh its all rubbish, Wakefield have never done anything of the sort. By the way we are still selling Gold Memberships at only 180 quid which gives you 5% off Subway on a Sunday night after 10pm. Get yours now and be strong, be united, be Wakefield. What was the question again ?"'"
I will do as I always have done - the best I can do for Wakefield Trinity. There is nothing I would change from what I have done to this point - and NM remains our biggest real hope for the future and is likely to be the one reason anyone would be interested in us.
Whether people want to get the pitchforks out is up to them, but there are serveral people who have been working hard to ensure that supporters voices and wishes are represented going forward.
=#BF0040The big question now is - assuming we go into admin and in the event that either no investor, or a collection of small timers get involved - would those people who said no to the £1,000 investment put that, or what they can afford, into a fighting fund to help buy the club out of administration, either entirely or to sit alongside a new BoD. If enough funding were available, it could result in a fully democratic representative (or more) on the BoD - i.e. you decide who gets the job!

AL, The issue is that they don't say anything.
Agree with your last two sentences though

O'Hara's would be the obvious choice as potential Administrators given that they did Crusaders so they know what the RFL require to allow the club to continue in SL this year.
While any Administrator would be prepared to spend a bit of time answering outline questions from anyone, I don't think they'd go into much detail with anyone other than whoever formally appoints them (i.e. the company or the bank).

| agreed, but they would be obliged to look into raised concerns from shareholders, a "heads up" if you like.
i would also suggest someone contacts the rfl raising shareholders concerns, baring in mind ted is under appeal still at the moment, perhaps he can be immediately suspended pending an inquiry??

Please remember that we have been working on the Supporters Trust for several months, long before all this was known. We were not ready to come forward to supporters for a while yet ... but because of current events we had to 'come out' sooner.
As yet there isn't an 'official' Supporters Trust - we had to have meeting to get mandate from fans before anything can happen. We now have to become affiliated to Supporters Direct, who we have been working with all the time - and that will take a while.
We have a lot of filled in forms of fan's interest and a mandate to go forward.
BUT at present we have no members, no membership fees, no shares and no formal affiliated Trust.
We are working as hard and fast as we can and having several meetings a week sometimes. So we cannot demand or have the right to influence such crucial matters as yet
Just realised I should have posted this as 'WT Supporters Trust' rather than 'Catwoman' but too late now!

| What a sad and depressing state of affairs; it's a pity that the people who have designed and implemented these complicated acts of financial chicanery didn't apply the same level of thought and energy to running the club properly.
From the outside looking in, it seems that Emperor Ted has been fiddling whilst Trinity burns, in a very literal sense.
