I know Chris is with this and I have just spoken with Phil and he is in agreement and I'm sure Jonathan is of the same mind.

You are correct, we must maintain unity and stick together. United we stand, divided we fall and that is what they are trying to do.

Its big money, £50,000 at least and maybe as much as £100,000 if the case is lost.

We will be utilising Crowd Funding to raise the money but its a small price to pay to try and achieve justice.

I'm in!

THe Clarks application can't go in yet, because the original OPP and 106 are still in place. After December we will need new agreements / applications which is what the HoT we're meant for. Any application now will open Pandoras Box - hence it will have cooled, for now!

It's a pit DG isn't still the owner - we could have asked him to push for it!

Is the trust publishing the HoT today? I think we deserve to see the extent to which we are being taken for mugs. Also are the council due to make any further statements?

It looks like time for a push, public meeting anyone, get the ball rolling? Time to get our SWAG t-shirts out?

Very despondent at the moment, although Its good to hear and read we have good people pushing and working for the club and community or we would have been thrown to the wolves a long time ago

Well don't be despondent law field.. it's exactly what they will be hoping for,this is the time for all of us to come together and take the fight to those who seek to get away with their obligations.

If you start a fighting fund I'll contribute.

and you can count me in as well

Even if we don't get a stadium out of it, I would love to see these corrupt barstewards get their just desserts. I'll contribute

That's more like it Jizzer..
We need to hire a junk yard dog lawyer and get up and at em!!

I think now the new HoT and expected council take on it today is out in the open then there is scope for one more meeting. Telling them face to face that it is not acceptable and will lead to legal action is the best way to gague their reaction and takes away the 'they have refused to meet to discuss the new terms' argument that they will surely use. Set very short timescales (i'm thinking by the end of the month) and if they refuse to attend or comply then you have that feather in your bow moving forward and they don't. Doesn't have to be nicely nicley, make the meeting as uncomfortable and frank as possible and even short and sweet if they refuse to budge. It may seem futile but it needs to be done IMHO, they will use any leverage against you they can should it get dirty so cover every possible base. Once that is done should there be no positive outcome then it is the time to move. Legal action should always be the very last resort, it's costly, time consuming and given they would throw the kitchen sink at it leaves a very real possiblility of losing the case which leaves us stone dead.

Just playing Devil's Advocate here (I'm sure the real one will be along shortly !!), whilst I am in with everyone else in wanting to see these Sheisters brought to justice, BUT, assuming we do succeed in this aim, then what will be the likely outcome ??
Are they possibly looking at criminal proceedings for fraud, or in Box's case, misconduct in a public office ??
What have our legal team advised so far on possible outcomes ??

When will that decision be made and announced?
