Fight or die were the options, dragged to the gallows by Box and Walker and all the rest. Well done for fighting. They deserve the support of everyone.

She is, likely to be December but the Club and Trust may not be able to attend if advised not to do so by our Lawyers.

Is this Andrea Jenkins and is it worth us getting in touch with her to sort a date asap?
I fully appreciate the club and trust are in the midst of legalities but surely us fans need to contribute to this fight and we can use social media and political pressure.

To be fair star hit nail on head when the council said they wanted to charge 500,000 a year in rent .....

Rest is just flim flam and spin as far as I can see from the council

Not sure about all of it being "flimflam", the council have highlighted a specific claim from the club -

"that there is a 'legally binding obligation for the Council to provide a 99 year lease at a peppercorn yearly rental to the Wakefield and District Community Trust' as there is no reference, at all, in the Unilateral Undertaking to this."

Maybe only someone from the Trust could clarify as to whether this is a factual statement or not?

Mighty strange that the club website goes down just after Jeffreys' statement

Re: Fight for justice - Club Statement : Tue Nov 07, 2017 7:07 pm  

This bit really get me

When she states the council did not agree to the trigger point it was imposed on them

Well in some way she has shown that, by removing any obligation for Newcold to be part of the trigger !

In fact it appears the reason they don't want trigger points, is because they don't want anything to trigger
the construction of a stadium.

I am sure one of the resident legal experts will be along soon to argue that somehow the club are really at fault here.
