Yes, I've just read the same.

Hope this is just a minor glitch, and they can get beyond it.

Let's see if Carter and minnards have got the best interests of the club in their hearts or only interested in lining their own pockets. Il go for a pound Carter. Please go and give us our club back your not real fans

Thought it had hit the rocks it should have been announced this last week.
It needs to be moved on and quickly. To give any kind of a chance of avoiding relegation

A new owner with a broader outlook, a real Wakefield Trinity fan as well.
If this happens soon I have no doubt whatsoever that the fans will be 100% reinvigorated

Long term it has to be a massive positive step forward

Don't get the drama on RW&B.
If he takes full ownership of the club he'd have to take the council loan on. Who else is going to take it.

If he's taking all shares, so Minnards and Carter shares, you'd normally pay off their money, though Carter has previously said he wouldn't call it in......but the shares still need to be bought. You don't just give it for free.

I'm sure they'll work it out.

the loan will be repayed, but now they suddenly want their directors loans back and want to charge the club 200k a year to use the stand. It's obvious we have no.money so without a takeover it ain't looking good. Will someone please explain to me how the hell they can charge 200grand when it was our money, the people of wakefields money. I tell you why the drama because of the distrust of our board

That just can't be right.
If he takes on the loan and the shares there is nothing for them to charge for.

I'll wait to see what the outcome is but sounds like someone has found a snippet of info and tried to make something if it.

is there not something in the wording of the spirit of 1873. Basically they want 200 grand a year paying into the spirit of 1873 to use the new stand and they are still the trustees it bull shxt. I wish they would just go they've done enough damage to our club
