Not sure about that once he finds out you are helping to fund legal action against his buddies!

Well we'll just have to see

That was the old GH scheme

We sold Westerman to pay for planning fees and the expectation was that Waystone would give us the land and we would have to find the cost to build the stadium selling WR.

The new plan has all been entirely funded by Lateral in terms of planning. Cost to build the stadium will be cross-funded by the rest of the development.

Just got back from a few days away to see all this depressing news. Whilst I always try to be a half glass full person it was always in the back of my mind that there would be a further sting in the tale as WMDC clearly have no interest in the club and how valuable it is as a brand to our city.
Our labour run council have to be one of the most incompetent going and I really hope that MC & the trust are willing to fight for what is right as they have my families 100% support.
Shame on you WMDC & YC. Also shame on the Wakefield Express for publishing such a biased one sided article.
Like others I am prepared to commit money to a fighting fund and will support the club wherever possible.
This whole murky pond of secret meetings, back-scratching & failed promises needs to be brought out into the open once and for all.

"The future of the new Belle Vue proposal now rests with the Club and [ua[/u Trust who need to produce a robust business plan that clearly demonstrates how they will generate income to meet the running costs and commercial rent."

From the original publicity splash.

With hindsight, the use of the indefinite article rather than the definite gives it all away. It was always "a" Trust, not "the" Trust. Rodney was always there.

He is involved with Aubrey Weis, who appears to be a property investor of some weight. He was a director of Fitters (Wakefield) Ltd, but the charge on their business related to shops in Nottingham, and he was with someone called Benny Stone. It's an unusual move.

Completely agree. Like you and others have said, I'd happily stick some cash in towards any fight.

this is so so bad
