| Quote: Redscat "Forgetting some of the hair-brained schemes for getting attention, what's wrong with good old picketing of the town hall with placards bearing derogatory (but not libelous) comments about Captain Box and his crew of pirates. Who was it that organised the mass pickets a few years ago, cos we need him again?? Muster everybody on Wood Street and give a call to Calendar and Look North and take it from there.'"
There wasn't mass media coverage at the last one, although Radio Leeds were there.
We really need some of the press to do some good old fashioned investigative journalism.
The Wakey Experss aren't up to it but, whether the Yorkshire Post and or The RL press could do anything, I dont know.

Yes, for the time being.

| Don't know how the Wakefield Express has the cheek to call itself a newspaper. It has been crap since being taken over by the Johnstone Press (who own The Yorkshire Post by the way). Any paper worth its salt would have picked a scandal like this up early doors and given it full publicity. Why would a so called local newspaper that is neither put together in this city or printed here give a damn. Their Trinity news looks as though it's all been plagiarised from this forum.
A serious message to all Wakey Express readers: DON'T BUY IT!!!

Yeah, wakeytrin, it was me. I'm afraid that I don't have detailed enough knowledge of the full proceedings regarding the whole debacle otherwise I would be straight in there myself, but there are plenty on this forum that have the knowledge, and I'm sure that Private Eye would be very receptive to any submission.

| What about Danny Lockwood of League Weekly.
He was the one who exposed Ted Richardson having sold the ground
Also did a protracted expose of Dewsbury MP S Malik' alleged deeds
Seems to be a good investigative reporter who owns the Dewsbury Press

| Just been dropped a little info.
FYI
As of 10th March Jones and Mackie have now rejoined the board of Yorkcourt (200icon_cool.gif Ltd.
Do they think it's quiet enough to pop their heads above the parapet?
Is this usual in the business world directors wise?

| Whilst I cant do anything about it over here in Australia- I to think some sort of protest or outcry by the fans will be perfect for next Thursday especially as it is on sky!!
Every fan bring a banner or something saying save Bellevue or save wakey..... the sky cameras will pick it up and at very least will give national and international exposure to our plight
just do Stop correcting "something" anything to get the point across to the sky cameras!!
leave it up to you guys - but hopefully I am seeing something whist watching over here

| Quote: Sandal Cat "Don't think we want anyone to do anything yet and any action needs to be properly co-ordinated.
Do you know if the access road has been formally adopted as a public highway under Section 38 of the Highways Act. If not then the road may still be a private road and if you park on it you may be towed away at your own expense.'"
Actually the law changed at midnight 30th sept/1st October 2012 making it an offence to tow/fine a vehicle parked on private land and for the record you cannot enforce the road traffic/highways act on private land

| I was under the impression that the covenant on the ground restricted it use whilst we chose to remain. I regret that now we have voluntarily washed our hands we have lost the security it provided.
I would remind people once again that even if the current building was included it did not reach the threshold to build us a ground. I guess we blinked first and have weakened our position. What can we now do other than to move away, who will that hurt only the supporters not the developer, council or even our board who will be able to pass the responsibility to the new ground owners.
I hope we are not being sacrificed on the alter of self interest. I would ask if this was Ted or Glover making this decision how well do you think it would be received. I doubt we would blindly accept this decision but it was in our name so I look forward to finding out the plan the board have to ensure we stay in Super Leage at a ground that is easily accessible to those who have invested more than just money supporting Wakefield Trinity.

| When Bradford were in the mire, the Sky team lamented their plight and wailed about the loss to SL, and encouraged the RL family to dig deep for their bucket collections; when WT are in the mire, the Sky team suggest we sell our license to a club in Canada.
Lovely stuff.

I will give you the club. Notice to leave BV can be easily rescinded. Then you can lead us in any direction you feel is suitable. When can you come in and sign the paperwork?
