Quote ="weaver93"My interpretation of this situation is, that if a dispute between the two parties exist,(regardless of the auditor's recommendation).
The FA will reject the soccer club's proposal for Tier 2 status.
Therefore the Council do not need to take legal action, only if the Allam's still refuse to remove the 3g pitch.
Also an extract from The Dentist's Diary...
l contacted a Councillor close to the action who sent me an E mail that explains the Council’s position and he agreed that I could enclose an extract from it here for your information.
[i“The reason that the council are holding off is that should the Allam’s fail to upgrade the academy they will take up the pitch, but if they were successful we would then instigate proceedings to have it removed which is very expensive, people need to remember this is public money and we need to be mindful of that, so if by waiting a few weeks we can resolve this, why would we start (Lengthy) and expensive court proceedings? As far as the question of those political contributions, they were to the National party not Labour (Hull) we have had not one word from the national party on this, It has never even been mentioned in passing, to sum up, if we can get to where we need to be cost free, we will take that option every time”[/i'"
The Council may still need to take action if the SMC refuses to repair any damage to the floor caused by the installation of the pitch and the temporary flooring for the squash.
