Even money that Ted Richardson is one of Sir Rodney of Bentsville Trust members

Totally agree

Received correspondence from Sir Rodney saying how he is committed to getting the stadium built but has come up against various ongoing problems. His Trust application is now with the Charity Commission awaiting approval. The membership of the Trust are all to quote "highly reputable figures"

I wonder if Mr box has one of them?

As highly reputable as him?? Or just more people fancying a slice of the pie.

I would put Sir Rodney in same category as Colin Mackie and Councillor Peter Box and other well known conmen

I would put him in a concrete overcoat but that's probably just a personal choice!

Can I mix the concrete ?

Works for me

He is just an overweight and very old sad individual. Make as much stress as you can for him, make life as difficult as possible. The greedy slob will either realise he is too old and frail for the fight or nature will take it course and he will no longer be the problem.

What the hell has overweight got to do with anyone's character.

Quite a lot in these circumstances. Last time I saw him he did not look a fit individual and he is carrying a lot of excess weight. The guy is now 74yrs old. He is supposed to be a very wealthy man, so why is he willing to go through all the grief that he could be bringing on himself. He needs to ask himself 'Do I really need this at my time of life, or should I just let it go and move on'

Any doctor will tell you, being old, overweight and having a stressful life is very risky for your health,

I wish the guy would take a step back, take stock and ask himself is all this going to be worth it.

I said exactly the same a few weeks since. Where's the poster "Harrogate" when you need him?

Are you sure you used the word because you are so concerned about his health? I would suggest , in your anger and frustration, it was used in a derogatory sense. Totally unnecessary to bring in anyone's physical appearance .No way am I defending Walker, just generally object to the use of a person's physical appearance when making reference to their character.

I don't have any concerns about his health that's for him to seriously consider.

In answer to your question it is a YES SURE !!!

I saw him very recently and he looks seriously overweight, end of.

Unfortunately that's been nagging away at me - hard to imagine a more disastrous scenario. I like Ted but it's truly sad that he may feel the need to be Rodders gimp.

I'd like him to show some dignity but I fear he won't.

So the guy who has failed to deliver the new stadium and the guy who lost us the current stadium working together, what a dream team (not)

Is they anywhere that we could have some sort of Public enquirer regarding that the council have let Yorkcort/Newcold have that land on the promise of building a community stadium for the city of Wakefield and get them kick off that land, Just utterly sick to death about all this and what Box & co have failed to do the right thing.






Up The Trin

This has been my thoughts for a while. This is fast turning into a scandal and Wakefield Council & the developer seem to be trying to wriggle their way out of it. To get such an enormous amount of greenbelt land to profit from and to then not fulfil the promises made to the citizens of Wakefield is disgusting. If money is needed for legal action I would gladly put money into the cause or if support is needed to put pressure on the relevant authorities for a public enquiry I am sure the will is there from the public. Such a fantastic season and we've got this crap going on in the background it's such a sickener.

I personally think that Yorkcourt as a company are skint, can't afford to fund the stadium (or any other development for that matter), and will delay and delay this whole sorry saga until nobody cares anymore;then go into liquidation or bankruptcy. The giant fridge will then stand alone ad-infinitum as a reminder to folk within a thirty mile radius of total incompetency!!!! Wakefield Trinity RLFC, the citizens of Wakefield and Wakefield MDC have all been mugs to corporate fat cat greed.


Bring on the Saints

How much do you think they will have made from the new cold development?

Don't know, but they must be FROZEN assets

As i take it Yorkcourt ARE Newcold and there a far from being skint they just got a big contract off Ant-Bessie and other on the Horizon,Just to put it in respective Antbessies have between 35 & 50 Thousands Plts stored at Reedboardall at york which will generate hell of a lot on money and from sept these Plts will go straight to Newcold, Plus my company are looking at there prices as well for when it comes back up for tender.


Up The Trin

I don't know but it's a terrifying thought.

Time to boycott Aunt Bessie products then, and hopefully see the back of those two unfunny women on their telly adverts
