Apparently they don't recall ever being informed NC wouldn't count towards the target. Naturally no minutes of the meeting were taken. I've speculated that even if they were told was it explained to them in a way they would understand what the implications were.

I guess we'll never truly know. Both parties have form for being a little economical with the facts.

Surely the burden of proof is on the Council to prove that they informed the Stadium Trust etc.

The fact that they have no minutes can be added to the fact that they have no record of the legal advice they say they took.

Shoddy

WMDC is beggining to remind me of Doncaster Council a few years ago.

In reply to t-r-i-n-t-y…..were the "residents of newmarket"/ representative of the people of Wakefield present in that so called meeting with Glover/Elston ? Surely the point is no-one seemed to be aware of any development outside of the agreement.

The meeting happened alright as I have reported.

Sir Rodney is the negotiator. Don't expect him to be spreading dirt, it's not his style. Happy with his role just now.

I still think we will eventually get our Stadium.
