Is this Andrea Jenkins and is it worth us getting in touch with her to sort a date asap?
I fully appreciate the club and trust are in the midst of legalities but surely us fans need to contribute to this fight and we can use social media and political pressure.

now we will find who our friends are within the rugby league community.

two great guys at the helm that have shown how to run a club with what finances available, even had sky reducing its payments due to the ground and we still kicked some s on the way

proud to be a supporter of the club

lets go get the s

And her response should be "guilty your honour"

Not sure about all of it being "flimflam", the council have highlighted a specific claim from the club -

=#0040BF"that there is a 'legally binding obligation for the Council to provide a 99 year lease at a peppercorn yearly rental to the Wakefield and District Community Trust' as there is no reference, at all, in the Unilateral Undertaking to this."

Maybe only someone from the Trust could clarify as to whether this is a factual statement or not?

Mighty strange that the club website goes down just after Jeffreys' statement

This bit really get me

When she states the council did not agree to the trigger point it was imposed on them

Well in some way she has shown that, by removing any obligation for Newcold to be part of the trigger !

In fact it appears the reason they don't want trigger points, is because they don't want anything to trigger
the construction of a stadium.

I am sure one of the resident legal experts will be along soon to argue that somehow the club are really at fault here.

Now then snowy old lad, I wonder where Box now ranks on the harris hole meter in relation to Thatcher. must be round about.

I would love to see him thrashed publicly, you must of seen something I put on FB

One thing is clear here ... and I appeal to all my fellow trinitarians here... there will be mud slinging.. accusations and trolling.. and some people wil genuinely support a different agenda...

we as individuals should not be drawn into that.. however affronted and however tempting it is! That what the other side will strive for... to engage our baser side and make us angry... don't let it happen...

what I see is further years of delays before we even look like getting a stadium...the end is nigh

How much are you donating to the crowd funding BOJ0?

TROLL ALERT

BOZ0

It is Andrea and we are in touch with her office.

There was an obligation at the Public Inquiry for the Developer in return for planning gain to build a 12,000 capacity stadium and pass it to the Wakefield and District Community Trust on a 99 year lease for a peppercorn. The Trust was then to grant a 99 year underlease to the Club for a rent to be agreed between the Trust and the Club.

Everyone seemed happy with that deal at the time of the PI but apparently some are not happy with it anymore.

Would it be worth going around town on weekends with banners or posters or such and spreading the word about what the Council are doing?

In what way. Please enlighten us all regarding your wonderful alternative - or are you one of those to whom the penny is yet to drop.

I'll help you out shall I - if we don't get the initial agreement enforced there will be no Trinity. There will be no Trinity because there will be no NM and no BV.

By 2019 we WILL be homeless and nomadic. We WILL be kicked out of SL and we WILL be at Dewsbury and we WILL go bust it's inevitable.

This is not. Carters call or the Trust it's the Council. You need to get your head out of the sand like a few others on here - this is now a fight for survival and as far as I'm concerned you need to pick a side and remain loyal.

They don't care, however get a freedom of information request and parade around Wakefield with the respective salaries of the council leaders. That will more than likely rattle cages.

They are playing the holier than thou card in the press, time to show the public what these crooks take from the public purse.

This guy Vastman is talking sense, like it or lump it but it is the clubs future that is at risk.

Is the £500,000 in addition to the obligation to upkeep and maintain the stadium if so we would probably go bankrupt, maybe the council would be happy with that.

Thought when the upgrade of Belle view was mentioned that Wakefield Council said they were going to buy the lease for the ground from the owner and give it to the trust in return for planning permission etc so the demand for rent seems strange, to say the least!

If only we had a conservative lead council maybe we wouldnt be in this mess

Labour shafted the country and are now trying to shaft trinity

Just reading the statement from the council and this is seems to be the main council come back

Quote from the daily star



Does any one have access to the document that says we do have to be provided a 99 year lease at a peppercorn yearly rental

It's being talked about a lot and has being one of the fundamental behind the hole stadium from the off
