All this business with setting up another trust and meetings leading to nowhere or alleged people not attending. What a load of crap, it's like a soap opera. Is it that hard to focus on the actual issue at hand. I despair, I really do.

That sounds like one for our Lawyers.

Yes, we are a bit peed off as well.

Around 8 years ago, I was a guest of Mrs Kear at a game (the one where Diversity played and Danny Brough was sent off for angrily abusing a touch judge, outraged at a decision when we were 50 nil up). In the pre-game buffet, Rodders was there and I was sitting opposite him as he shovelled in his vol au vents, justifying everything with "I'm getting you a stadium". The word "I" was the one used.

Here we are, years on, and I'll use the word "you". You haven't got us a stadium. Leave me some sausage rolls. You haven't earned them.

I'm guessing the correspondence went along the lines of, "Dear Rodney. We've almost been forced into spending millions of pounds we don't want to spend. We could do with some more years of inactivity. Would you mind setting up another Trust? Hot buffet? Of course. Cheers."

A complete joke.

Does this Mr Vause work for the council,or does he support the club?

Is it possible to set up a public enquiry?

Precisely - yet another example, as if we needed one, of how the networks of power in this country protect each other, to the detriment of the little people. Small scale this may be - but it still stinks of corruption.

I would be interested to know if Rodney has any financial stake in any of the entities involved in this proposed new arrangement, or indeed in YCP, or any of its shell or subsidiary companies...

let’s not bite the hand that feeds us too soon, clearly Mr Box has surprised the club, trust, and now what looks like Walker and Yorkcourt by his email. Which looks as if he as breeched confidentiality?
Clearly the trust were awaiting next week’s meetings and clarifications before going to press reading these comments?
If a new trust is to be set up and can work to deliver a stadium surly that’s a good thing and would that have happened if they (Walker and Yorkcourt) were not convinced it could be delivered?

Forget it. It's water well under the bridge and has nothing to do with the stadium. Sorry, #stadium.

All along this a planning matter, it's upto the local planning department to enforce the S106 . Does the leader of the council check on all planning decisions or just this one.

If any financial incentive delivers it, I don't care. Just deliver it.

The fact that the chairman of the main tenant is tweeting about inaction, however, suggests that those on the club side are not optimistic about any new arrangement.

I don't think anyone who attended that council meeting a few months ago was actually taken in by the "I'm your mate" tactics of Box with his crappy jokes and ineffective speeches.
Just prior to that meeting the protest ball was well and truly rolling and that meeting was just to take the heat off Box and his cronies for another few weeks. I think it is time for a noisy picket outside Wakefield town hall and the Press brought back on board.
As for Rodders I will again refer to what he said at the inquest five years ago: " I DELIVERED THE NEW WEMBLEY STADIUM". Well, it looks like you may well have met your match when it comes to delivering a small community stadium on the outskirts of a small Yorkshire city, Rodders old chap!!!!
