Tbf I'm still intrigued to hear what TRB said " no brainer deal " just what deal was offered, must have been good and then.........

MC quoted Dewsbury in this weeks league express.

I believe that the ground as gone the way of the Super Bowl site which will mean we will be officially homeless. I would say that this is what I have heard but if incorrect I expect a member of SwAG will be able to correct this statement having been involved in more detail than most of us.

The council own the ground and a condition of the lease is that it goes to arbitration if there is a dispute. It was MC supporting the club that interested me, with the other party being the council.

Would be about right that the positivity from a Hull FC win would be immediately taken away. Perhaps they could announce it at 9.50pm tonight.

People keep mentioning SWAG - does that still exist?

I hope I have been misinformed and will be quite happy if any member involved with the negotiations confirm this.

The ground can't be sold yet as it is still in the period preventing this under the asset of comminity value.

"Asset of Community value?????" Tell WMDC that!!!

Look stop bloody dreaming it's Dewsbury ,bv,Newmarket and thornes it's all bull ,mad mile turn right and your left

As I understand it Slugger, the Bank of Ireland own the ground.

No, I meant the Halifax ground (unless they own a few of the grounds!)

I've been reading the thread on TotalRL (don't know how to link) & I was further sickened by claims on there stating that the council (Box) had blocked 3 attempts by Trinity to secure training facilities including the empty Westgate facilities. I thought it was bad enough that WMDC weren't offering any assistance whatsoever but this states that they are actively obstructive against us!

In all honesty I can't see any way out of this other than the move to Dewsbury but I'm up for some kind of demonstration even if it's just to make us feel better. Next time 'El Supremo' is up re-election maybe someone should stand as an Integrity candidate against him?

Sorry, jumped in in without reading the full thread.

Won't that be part of the new Lupset Fields development? WMDC have recently sold 20 acres off Milton Crescent to a Leeds based developer, to build 300 houses. I imagine that includes the pitches that comprise the Westgate facilities - so they won't be there any more.
