Gathering momentum and at the very least the protest looks set to delay the process which could be as bad as stopping it altogether as far as Trinity are concerned!

Pretty similar to the stories the Express were running a while back but with a bit of electioneering by the councillors. Interesting quote form Yorkcourt at the end of the article.

Quote: The concerns raised have all been addressed as part of the planning application. We have had a public consultation and met personally with residents of Newmarket Lane.

"A spokesman for Yorkcourt said


Also I was under the impression that the site was private land, have the MP’s took a picture of themselves trespassing?

Tbf drainage can be improved and traffic issues aren't really an issue at the moment in Wakefield before the game unless we get one of those 8,000+ gates. I don't believe the green belt land is especially beautiful at this moment in time, I'm sure our illustrious council can develop some outstanding green areas amongst the complexes and advertise it well if they are serious about backing the project...

I'd like to register my dissatisfaction with the Yorkshire evening post and their timing of this article, I will stand corrected if I'm wrong on this but today is the penultimate day to register an objection. This article seems well timed to generate objections whilst responses to any future article in support of the development will be too late.

"Therefore, surely nothing in life is to be feared, only understood. Apart from getting shanked at the cash machine!" I love this city, this is my town. We get a week out, without a doubt, gunna sing it out loud. i love my city this is my town, we get a week out, without a doubt, gunna sing it out loud:41904.jpg



Funny how these officials chose the day after a general election being called to voice their opinions.

Correct me if i'm wrong TRB but hadn't Leeds Council been consulted all along about various issues, one of which was traffic and highways.

Now we have politicians riding the wave of ill informed scaremonger's, I would be scared but i know the planners have accommodated these issues into the plans, i know because i have read the plans myself, pity some residents don't do the same, they could save themselves a big slab of humble pie when Yorkcourt get the green light come July.

Yes objections close on the 8th.

Perhaps it's a little cynical, but the decision won't be swayed by objections if all the planning criteria is satisfactory.

Its too late for letters supporting their objection too.

We can still write in and put them in their place, stating our reasons for supporting the plan, hence why so many WAKEFIELD RESIDENTS wrote in letters of support.

What gets my goat more than anything is how Leeds & their officials think they can control and manipulate the rest of the county to their will. Westminster of Yorkshire my .
Well done Wakefield council for supports a scheme that builds our own wealth as a city, further strengthens our independence away from the "Greater Leeds" notion which occupies the heats of LCC.

Exactly that, aided and abetted by a lazy journalist at the YEP.

I can't see it making much difference.

I can kinda see their point. If Giants were making a Rugby League complex near Lepton (our backyard so to speak) with a huge industrial site I'd be at odds and I don't even live near there so traffic and flooding wouldn't even be an issue. I was upset at the Grange Moor site, it's what you see on the horizon looking out of Wakefield now. I'd want the Wakefield Express/YEP to throw a spanner in the works.

I'm all for our project though (but not so much the units, so many warehouses going bust) as we don't have a 'City' stadium and our district is a vast and populated one, the proposed land is no oil painting either...

Totally agree. I am sure Councillors have only crept out of woodwork now a General Election has been announced.

And on that note, where are all the council officials who were so vocal during the Thornes Park affair. They were very happy to add their political weight in order to prevent the TP development yet all stated their support for building the stadium somewhere else.

Bill Sanders and co should make their opinions known once again, before anyone points out that its not in their ward, it is in the interests of their constituants that we get these facilities.

No one consulted me about building an arena near Elland Road and I doubt any of the Leeds Councillors spared a second thought for people in Wakefield when they threw their support behind the arena project!

I have to travel from junction 40 into Leeds via the ring road, which passes Elland Road at least eight or ten times a week. Many of those journeys are made between the hours of 5PM and 7PM, So when the New Leeds Arena is holding an event I'm going to be stuck in queues of traffic, which could triple the time it takes to do my journey.

I wouldn't have objected to it anyway because I'm not petty enough to stand in the way of a very positive project that will not only enhance the lives of people who attend the arena, but will also create a large number of permanent jobs.

If WMDC wants this & Leeds want a fight over it we should use the Leeds Arena card as quickly as possible, Sheffield Council still want to put a stop to that, and have been "recruiting" councils to back them up. While we are located close to Leeds and one would assume would support this exciting venture how bad would it look if WMDC spoke out publicly against it and jumped on the "Yorkshire already has an arena" bandwagon.
These things work both ways.

No doubt the councillors and the people that are objecting to these proposals are probably on mega bucks every month, they don't care if this project creates a few thousand jobs for a few thousand grateful people.
