Would it not be useful to write to Mr Corbyn about this? I am well aware of the views some of our lovely forum members have on Mr Corbyn but before they all start going Daily Mail on me, hear me out.

Considering Corbyn's staunchly "loony" left political stance - meaning he generally gives a about the environment and is fairly anti-corporate benefits over community and the environment, do we not think he would be a little interested to know about what is happening under the Labour council of Wakefield? I'm sure this issue could be brought to his attention and I will be writing to him myself to bring this to his attention if possible. Labour led counselor screws taxpayer by letting developer build on green belt land without giving the community their promised community stadium. Could be a shout? Especially now the numpties in Labour who are part of this benevolent, self-serving shamozzle are getting reigned in by the left side of Labour.

Didn't someone once mention Private Eye do a section about dodgy LAs?

How many times do I have to repeat it Musson old chap. WMDC DO NOT REPRESENT LABOUR IDEALS!!!
They are greedy, self interested opportunists who are interested only in how much expenses and salaries that they can extract out of thee and me !!!

That was me, Schunter, on many occasions. They have a section in each issue that exposes dodgy councils and their scams. Strangely I don't recall ever seeing WMDC mentioned

Surely this case is perfect because of the fact a lot of docs are there to be forensically examined and compared to the councils actions. I guess lawyers involved may put paid to it now

I seem to remember actually emailing Private Eye editorial staff some time ago suggesting they look into the situation as it was at the time, but nothing came of it.

It is better to fight and lose everything than merely lose everything because we didn't fight, because it's clear that we are on a fast-track to nowhere (or Toronto) if we sit back and wait.

As for your assessment of the grounds upon which we can win, that is why the club has engaged lawyers. They will advise. I'll trust their advice over the advice of anyone on here.

If this is true... and I don't doubt your word... then socialist and true Labour may be an ally in the forthcoming battle... are you in a position to mobilise them?

The section in Private Eye is appropriately called "Rotten Boroughs"

Oh do shut up you boring agenda driven troll. It's been explained a dozen times already, mostly to YOU!

There is no option and you know it so why not do one Jimmy.

People assume I'm a conservative, if I am it's very much to the left.

However I agree, Peter Box is a career politician who only represents himself. Thatcher and Ben were ideologically motivated politicians - not sure as yet regarding Corbyn.

However compared to Box he's flipping Kennedy.

As for a Tory council give me strength. They are every bit as low grade as theirs Labour equivalents. Usually second rate businessmen and Masosons in it for gain.

No im afraid the Law which is supposedly blind is our only hope. If we get the right judge then they are like kryptonite to people like Box. Fingers crossed.

Great to see support for the club on social media from fans of other clubs and the odd chairman. Last nights response from Denise Jeffery was shameful. I bet those at the top at not exactly 'welcoming' their opportunity in court. No response from my local councillor as of yet so i'm wondering if they are being Boxed in. The next council meeting is 22nd November at 2pm I wonder if Trinity will be on the agenda.
