In that case I'd leave it.

They are the ones wanting a home so we dictate the terms, not them.
Or, they can always go and seek help from Wakefield Council to get a ground of their own......

lets just hope this is the start of a new era, wishing all good luck for the future

I’m a little uncomfortable with what I’m reading at the moment. The community stadium now seems to be a community stand - not in the hands of a trust but in the hands of the club.

Anyone want to tell me I’m wrong?

Why would that make you uncomfortable? Have the trust given any concerns? As far as I can see the liability of the loan is on the club and not the trust is why wouldn't it be it the clubs hands?

All being well the East Stand is the first part of a new stadium (spread over many years if it were to come off I suspect) and even in a full new build only the main stand would be kitted out to support non-match day activities.

We don't half know how to spin semi positive news into a negative.

If you look at TRB’s twitter account then the trust are very much concerned. In fact it sounds they are quite upset with the situation.

Yes, i said earlier post that TRB is not happy big time and he wants nothing to do with the deal regarding wakefield fc

Negativet again, Mr Carter as put a lot of hard work into this club and turned it round so leave it to them in the no.Now we have got some fresh players in more interesting to find out if the bad losing streak was down to injuries, or bad coaches that have just been backed by the best owners the club have ever had

I was told a few weeks ago that plans for the redevelopment had already been drawn up. The intention was to erect a temporary stand on the West terrace and using seats from the east stand. The East stand to be demolished around May next season and work starting on the new East stand immediately, for completion at the start of 2021 season. I have not posted this before now because although the information came from a reliable source, I didn’t want to raise fans expectations. I hope now with the consultation being offered for the East Stand there’s some hope of information being released by the club/trust. We all live in hope.

What’s the other option? Not knocking the Trust by the way,they’ve have done an excellent job over the last decade or so and we all appreciate that work. Had an email today saying the supporters trust was ending at end of the month is this anything to do with the way the stadium development is going.

Up the Trin

Got told a few weeks ago we’d have good stadium news announced shortly but no details on what it was. After all the false dawns it’s a case of believe it when I see it but I’m hoping.

I'm guessing it's because the stadium may no longer be a community stadium run by a Trust because the club has found a way to own Belle Vue and make money from it, for the benefit of the club rather than the community, which will be why Wakefield FC may play there, because Trinity will charge them rent. This will help Trinity but I suspect will allow Yorkcourt to walk away from their obligations and promises.

The dissolution of the Supporters Trust is totally unrelated.

We have suffered from falling numbers and a lack of members wishing to get involved in the day to day running of the Trust.

If sufficient numbers feel strongly about continuing the Supporters Trust we will assist you in every way possible in meeting the legal obligations, FCA obligations etc.

The Trust will end as a legal entity but continue on Social Media platforms.

Am I confusing the Stadium Trust and the Supporters Trust?

I think you may well be.

The Wakefield & District Community Trust is the Stadium Trust as opposed to The Wakefield Trinity Supporters Society Limited which is better known as the Supporters Trust.

Two separate bodies but easily confused.

Wakefield Trinity launch community consultation about proposed plans for a new Community Stand at Belle Vue!

Just noticed this has been put back onto trinity twitter page 2 hours ago. Is the consultation continuing for another 2 weeks?

I was at the stadium 2weeks back mid week just for a look around and there were workers there doing ground work for the new stands they told me.

What, did you nip over from Cas in your lunch break ??

Its a must dig.....hole

hope you had a good whine about their shoveling technique and the quality of the site foreman.


tbh, I'm kinda sad I missed taking you for a pint....

Who's going to build this new community stadium at bv ?

Yorkcourt !!!

My guess would be the club, the FA, WMDC, it should be 100% funded by Yorkcourt but as I look out of my window at that flying pig......

Caddick usually like to get involved with this kind if stuff, Buckinghams also. It would be nice to get to the stage when we are wondering who is going to build rather than if its going to happen.

Not Caddick please. He's the guy that kyboshed the proposed Durkar development all those years ago.
