I’m not sure about that. I guess we are locked in to play at Belle Vue next year now so he is going to be earning from the ground for 12 months anyway. After then he has an extra chunk of land to do with what he wishes rather than having a rugby pitch on it not making him any money. Even if we walked now and went to Dewsbury he just gets on with his plans a year earlier. He can’t really lose and probably doesn’t care either way, what works out better in the end for him is no stadium. .

Can't be arsed to read through 18 pages so are you getting a new ground or not

It is late, I am tired after just getting back after a few days away with the family in the North East and of course emotional after today's unannounced press release from WMDC.

All I will say is that I am aware that Rodney Walker was on the phone to someone at lunchtime today, several hours prior to the council press release, telling that person what was coming later today and some of the content of the press release. As such, someone at the Council has been giving Rodney a heads up and yet they didn't even have the courtesy to inform the Club or Trust of the release, it was just issued to the press.

What does that tell you!

It had the stench of Rodney as soon as the phrase "commercial rent" was used.

Does Rodneys alternative trust actually exist as an entity?

Probably not.

I must be a bit thick because how & why does Walker have anything to do with this at all now, he's nothing to do with the Club or Trust anymore. I mean the bloke's also knocking on, he's had plenty of ego boosts over the years with stuff he's been attached to. He's earned plenty of crust along the way, so why get involved at this stage of his life, if he is involved that is. What's in it for him? I thought he's meant to be a Trinity man through and through.

Once bumped into RW when I was a youngster and thought he was a great guy, boy would I like to bump into him again, I think I could happily do time for him. Utter scumbags, don't normally wish bad things in anyone but Walker, Box and Mackie all deserve to rot in hell. An absolute disgrace to the city. Sod it, forget the ground now, let's get the action moving and have our day in court, if the evidence is there let's hang them out to dry and ensure that the remaining land is returned to greenbelt and move out of WMDC for good not for a year.

That's not the case though you are far to easily hoodwinked.

We can't stay at BV and he knows that. In less than 12 month we'll be off because the RFL simply won't allow us to stay. Twelve month is nothing to a property company. Then he will be able to build whatever he wants.

I've no idea why you have so much faith in this 'honourable' man as you called him. He's just another property developer and they are ALL the same - just look who's in the White House.

I'm not convinced that this is the end.

Someone on the council has the dummy spit to end all dummy spits. MC is quiet publicly and the Trust members are quiet on here, other than saying they are fighting for what they've always been promised and are taking legal advice. MC has never been quiet when he feels he has been wronged. I sense some brinksmanship here and the council don't like it.

What I've learned through this whole process is that I trust MC and CB to do what is best for the long term of the club, not just sign the only deal being offered.

Imho it's the end of BV because there never was a beginning - this was an ambush deliberately engineered to make the club look bad. We couldn't win no matter what we did.

The redevelopment of BV as put forward by WMDC was never possible. That's what me and a few others have tried to point out.

It would simply never be allowed to be built as per those plans. They were just a decoy.

I believe the only reason MC didn't reject the ludicrous scheme straight out was to buy time. At least now he can say he's had a good look which should help a little in the media battle to come.

Legal action is our only recourse. So people on here need to prepare to dig deep because it won't be cheap and it won't be quick.

I pledge £100 right now to any fund. If you want to help the club I suggest you let them know right now how much support you can offer.
