they just continue to blacken the name of the club.just go now and lets start again

I think we need to get behind our BOD at this moment in time, they need our support to get through this difficult period......

Could not agree more!

Robbed us for years (Alledgelly) TYPEO ?

i feel the same, But i only been going 28 years



bring me some good news



fed up of all the inbreds gloating

Emphasis on the something to moan about.

From what I can gather Ted hasn't put a bean into the club (and certainly nothing more than he has taken out), so please can you stop inferring we have something to thank him and his cohorts for

Obviously Teds put money in in the past Tricky, however he's been very deceitful and hasn't told a lot of truths

Freudian slip?

Upton

What I meant to say, is that I am not sure what he has put in matches what he and family have taken out.

he's given it trillions over the years

Edited for accuracy, although I suspect thats what you were getting at !!!

That statement reeks of anger and bitterness; I expect Ted and Diane are incensed at what they read on here and in the media. Diddums.

That old phrase "the truth hurts" springs to mind

Well if the LE article is correct, the ground is technically owned by Bank of Ireland as they've appointed an LPA receiver.

If they're wrong then the Land Registry information shows that a partnership formed of 2 companies that now both have Ted Richardson & Diane Maskill as directors.

I think one thing is certain and that's Wakefield Trinity do not own the Belle Vue but it would be nice for the fans and the Shareholder's to be told officially and an explanation as to why not and where the money that the ground was sold for has gone.

You never know, it may have been sold in the best interest of the Club.

Edited for accuracy

Ted refused to answer the questions asked prior to the Supporters Trust meeting because he said it was an open meeting.How many shareholders does it require to call an E.G.M,where we can demand that he answers our questions. We seem to be denied A.G.Ms where we can "theoretically" be given some idea of the club's financial situation,and the B.O.D seem to have no problem calling an E.G.M when they want to ask us for more money. So why can't the shareholders themselves call for a clear the air meeting ? The current playing squad could provide security !

Not having a go at you as we are all entitled to an opinion on this one - opinion being all it is for now.

However your attitude which is justified as opposed to Sandal Cats which is equally justified does highlight the difference between the camps.

I think what SC is say or hoping is the same as me however forlorn it may appear for now. I'm hoping that Ted is indeed innocent and has done what he is alleged to have done for good reason. This is not because I support Ted, it's not personal. I think even the most rabid anti Ted poster would be relieved if this all turned out to be a storm in a tea cup.

Why? Because let's remember one thing - this is not about Ted or you or Mopsey or TRB or even my blessed self - its about the club.

If you don't like Ted and you want him out then fine, but it can't be done at the cost of the club and 10 hard years of earning SL status. NO FECKING WAY!

If Ted and the BOD have done wrong then get em out. However they go because they have done wrong not because a section of fans don't like em.

For heavens sake lets take a step back for a few days and see what transpires.

Yes the statement was a poor effort but there is nothing in it you can hang em for. As SC says it's what's not in it that matters. Whilst ever the BOD give politicians answers to simple questions then they are not helping themselves. WE WANT STRAIGHT ANSWERS TO STRAIGHT QUESTIONS - nothing to sensitive just who owns the clubs only asset.

Me personally I want Ted to go regardless of the final outcome. Not for any personal reason - just for the fact that he has lost the trust of all fans - not just the shouters but all fans - and I don't think he will ever regain that even if it turns out he is innocent. That may be unfair but that's life and he/they seem to have lost the plot.

Lets just hope he isn't as bad as some paint him and the chance arises for him to leave with some dignity and the club find a new leadership. Again I don't wish this for Ted out of any personal reason, I wish it for the sake of Wakefield Trinity which isn't Ted Richardson.

We need to move on quickly or we are dead. Lynching Ted won't help either way, I want him out on good terns with the Trinity house in good order. It would appear to be unlikely but it should be what we all want.

Totally agree.

Ted has always stated publically that he want's to step down and will do do so if there is new investment. It would appear that there are new investors (4) interested in taking on the Club. Ted now has the opportunity to fulfil his aim and hand over the leadership of the club. I would love Ted to achieve his aim, step down and keep the name of Wakefield Trinity out of the dirt.

I only hope that the decision on the new owner is taken in the best interest of Wakefield Trinity and no one else and that new owner offers the Club investment and a sustainable future rather than more of the same and we just "paper over the cracks" as Clan said last night and lurch to the next crisis and round of administration.

We appear to have a great opportunity to take the Club forward - for God's sake don't lets blow it.

ted will want money and not step down for nothing...

Hence i think we will go into admin...

dark clouds are over us now...



I think there is alot more to it, Which will probably come out in due course...

BUT and i hope and

we will start to see the light at the end of this long dark tunnel



Sooner the better...

Following on from the points covered by Sandal Cat regarding the 4 suitors. Is there anyone out there with a working knowledge of Administration? If, as seems likely, WT go into adminstration, how do the administrators judge the 'best' offer? Is it based purely on the suitor who offers the largest amount to 'buy' the club - something akin to a secret bid scenario, or can other 'bidders' see the level of other bids?
If it is based on the best offer, then this may not be in the longer term best interests of the club as a lower bidder may have greater resources for the future or perhaps has greater expertise. Anyone?
