Knowing what we do about the two main protagonists in this, I think the conversation would have been something like this …

BOX "Colin... Would you like to contribute towards upgrading Belle Vue instead ??"

MACKIE "No"

BOX "Okay, sorry for asking".

Sounds about right.

Some time ago, Carter said he’d fund the court action himself so it’s not a problem

I’m not sure how cosy he’s got with Box since then, as the loan deal suggests they’ve forged some kind of relationship.

Would be a problem if it was my money! you're talking mega bucks, many in the legal profession have a licence to print money!

MC doesn't have to be 'cosy' with anyone in particular, the loan is from the council isn't it, not Box?

It is not too late for the council to show some moral judgement by refusing to sanction any planning application unless Yorkcourt voluntarily offer some contribution for the land that they have been given to develop.

Why did they think they were given the land in the first place.

In legal parlance what is the consideration that they have provided. If there is none there is no deal.

With less than 48 hours before the planning application is put before the planning committee, again, I have to say I’m both surprised and disappointed, that there has been no comment or advice given to the fans and supporters who have attended previous planning applications to show support for members of The stadium trust. I have to ask why the trust have remained silent. I hope it’s because there are ongoing discussion between parties involved, and I can understand that any talks are confidential at this stage.
I hope the trust would at least confirm they, the trust are still involved in this stadium saga.

Thank you

I’m just repeating what was said some time ago, I’m sure Carter knew the rough costs when he said it!

Surely you’ve worked out that Box is the Council and no such loan for Trinity could be approved without him nodding his head from the shadows.

Mr Townsend is a person I have the utmost respect for with the battles against property developers knights of the realm and local council, and I may well attend the meeting in support for him. Unfortunately, Mr Townsend left the stadium trust some time ago, therefore unable to make any comments of behalf of the trust. Thank you
