Peter box was on radio Leeds today anybody catch the phone in just got last 20 seconds mentioned trinity?

Didn't hear it personalty but he apparently said there would be good news revealed in the new year, that it's all Pickles fault and that he wants Trinity to stay in SL because it's 4 points for Cas every season.

Which new year?

Fair point.

I listened to the first question, from a Trinity supporter and if I heard correctly he said that in 2009 both Wakefield and Castleford were given £2million by the council. Am I right in thinking that was not the case?

I heard it and that is what he said, I think he tried to cover it by saying land was given to both clubs to then value of, which again is a lie, Wakefield didn't get any land and Cas never took up WMDC's offer of land at the back of the train station at glasshoughton.
He clearly blamed Eric pickles for the unilateral undertaking, stating that WMDC never supported that (although their signature is on the paperwork) he said he has 40 10p shares in Cas which won't make him a millionaire and that he supports all RL in the district as he's a RL fan not just cas and state department he wants all clubs (Trinity Cas And Fev) to succeed.

They were not given £2m, the council pledged to contribute that amount to the cost of a new stadium taking into account the community aspect of the venture. There was a time limit on this offer and has since been revoked. If he has genuinely said that then the club needs to push for a public correction from him.

A cheque would suffice.

Many years back, I had a letter published in the Wakey Express commenting on Box's "support" for the Thornes Park proposal. My final comment was "I'll not hold my breath".
Nothing has changed.

He'll probably be thinking that that statement will keep the peasants reasonably happy for another three months or so.
I've a sneaking feeling that we may be seeing a new stadium at City Fields in the not too distant future.

“Good news revealed in the new year” I will cling on to that bit of hope.

Up the Trin

where did you get that bit of news from?

2nd post on this thread, didn’t listen to the interview so don’t know what was said.
