| Quote Upanunder="Upanunder"I dunno what your all going on about now.
Forcing MC and CB out ??
The developers want the land to develop, WT is in the way, they don't give a stuff about WT so its smoke/mirrors and miscellaneous spin, 8u115h1t and promises never to be acted on till WT get fed up and make their own arrangements.
Apart from the perception that MC and CB are nobody's fools and thus not gonna just roll over, I expect the interested parties have accepted it'll take a bit longer than they'd hoped.
I suppose it would help if the owners would just get out the way, but since that ain't happening they're just waiting it out.
Can't see there being a concerted effort to remove the owners when if they obfuscate long enough it won't matter who the owners are.'"
Could it be, if we don't get new stadium it's the end of the club, if MC and CB can't agree terms on proposed stadium then probably no club. The new trust find miraculously find somebody willing to agree terms on new stadium to take over the club.

I think you forgot to put the word "miraculously" in inverted commas.

That doesn't mean no club and its by no means clear what options will or won't be available.

| It would be hard to walk away from the club I love it as much as any body but it's the fear of what those who seek to take it over would do to it and what they put it through in the past i for one couldn't stand to go through it all again.

| Quote Slugger McBatt="Slugger McBatt"Snowie, as you have a closer working relationship with MC and CB than most on here, because of your beer work and your terrace work, when you say something like that, it smacks of knowing something, which puts his tweets into perspective.
If I read between the lines, Rodders is trying to get his Trust up and running, perhaps take over the club, which will get us a revamped Belle Vue at a rent we can't afford, and we will slowly sink back into the Championship.
Although as a limited company, I don't think there can be an aggressive take-over bid. In a PLC, someone can buy up shares and force a take-over. In a limited company, the directors choose the share issue, so they can't be taken over against their wishes.
What they can do, however, is be left with only one viable option by others moving the pieces, so they take the option they don't want, selling to someone else, because it's the only option left open by those wishing to make the purchase.'" I was trusted to work in the corner Slugger which at Dec I had to close and at no time have any information of the future of BV I was given encouragement but I could see the frustrations at every time the was pause in the project, one of the reasons why I chose to close was the uncertainty.
this never ending saga of tweets from manni, council feeds to the press, Rodders and his little merry team set up are just waiting in the back ground stinks.
Limited may not have the same take over bid as a PLC but you do experience pressures of competition which makes you either compete or fail, our pressures is applied through stadium standards ie RFL and being rejected from SL, that vicious circle of spending money on something we don't own and keeping the club afloat how long could this keep going

| Quote wtid71="wtid71"Just been looking at the tweets. What a load of codswallop to be putting on social media. It’s like being back in the playground. WT is a professional sports club and it’s in the best shape it’s been in years under the current chairman and his team. I really despair at the antics of this bloke and the council.
'"
My thoughts exactly.
Out of all the parties involved in the ground debacle, there is one we should be able to turn to, to provide accurate information, guidance and perhaps even help. WMDC.
In my book they have been completely devoid of anything. They have allowed this situation to get to where it is, and if BV doesn't get developed, after they allowed Newmarket to go down the Swannee, they should be brought to task for it.
It's absolutely disgraceful the way the club, and the Wakefield public (not just WT supporters) have been lied to, cheated and deceived, by some people who are lucky not to be facing legal proceedings in my book.
