To say we've been had, is correct. We've been had for 15 years or more by various unethical, selfish and dishonest individuals and groups. Since Michael has come on board, he's acted in good faith. Paid back people he didn't need to pay back legally. But morally he did. When he's listened to others in good faith he's not been afforded the same principles and indeed had the wool pulled over his eyes. So the tenacity to keep going (Swag & Trust included) is a testament to the determination and character of the man and group. We all have a bad time at the office in work but don't often wake up to nasty, personal and vindictive attacks online by fans and fans of other clubs. This impacts massively on family life and has been the case on many occasions. Everyone is glad he continued! After previous owners knocked trust of fans, it took a long time to trust MC. That was understandable. So to be getting to this point is a massive achievement! Is it more for the ground and separate land than what was originally payed? Yes.. Does it grind? Yes.. But having acquired it, it puts us in a stronger position to move forward. We have an asset.
The good times on the field we have had on the field over the past few years have come by selling players at less than their worth as a need, doing things slowly but correctly. It took time, we took the hits, but we got there!
I've always loved Belle Vue, it holds personal memories for me and thousands of other fans. The old girl just won't give in or let go!!! A bit like our fans

No argument with any of that - but it has no bearing on what I posted; the only one coming out of this with any glory is Mr Carter, who's done right by this club at every opportunity. We've still been conned though, and YCP and 88M will make a killing.

Call me a doom-monger if you like, but this is a really crap outcome when we consider what was campaigned for and promised; anyone remember the lovely drawings of a shiny community stadium? Gone. The drawings of a redeveloped BV? Gone.
The winners her are YCP, 88M and Rodney Walker, who will no doubt have received some form of consideration for his role in allowing 88M to make millions for doing nowt, and getting YCP off the hook.
Watch the Kitwave thing get waved through now, and as if by magic, developments at Newmarket will come thick and fast - meanwhile, we'll be grubbing round trying to find money to tart up BV - fending off criticism from citizens who will perceive this as WMDC chucking money at a minority interest at a time when infrastructure and public services are slashed to the bone; it's already started on Twitter and will only get worse.
Anyone celebrating this is experiencing Stockholm Syndrome - we've been had.
You may be right, but I think you are wrong. The Newmarket saga continues. The Trust said recently they will continue to object to all planning applications for the Newmarket site. I attended the Kitwave planning meeting and was encouraged by some councillors who objected to the application and spoke out about the actions of Yorkcourt in this stadium affair. The Trust and supporters will continue to object until Yorkcourt provide funding for a community stadium/facilities as promised to the Secretary of State and citizens of Wakefield. I’m sure all of us will continue our support for the Trust and club in achieving their objective.
Thank you
