Doesn't tell us anything, the deeds show ownership of BV, to a company belonging to Ted. That's pretty much what the article said.
Payment was made that has been corroborated on here, bit of bluster from Ted having his last hurrah!!!
His days are numbered, I'll wager he isn't the big cheese by early next week!!!

Seems a rather petty response from the club with the standard 'no further comment'. If there was nothing to hide then be open and upfront about what has happened!

The main question we have been wanted answering is that one.!

They could have said...

In light of recent allegations by the RL & LW the club would like to clarify its posistion in regards to the ownership of the ground.

In 2007 (?? Company) bought BV from the Club for (£????)

They have paid (£???) of it and the club are due (£?????) when they vacate the ground.

We are currently not paying any rent towards the stadium and are paying for the general up keep of the stadium for the time being.

The club refute all allegations in the national press, and have taken legal advice to resolve these matters.

Instead Diane & Ted have a hissy fit, draw more rumours from the public, (if this isnt true then what is??? I have heard that so n so) They've just spread more rumours and gossip.

Either be open and HONEST or do as you have always done and keep your trap shut... ride through rumours and keep the fans guessing?

Ahh I see its the latter.

Well done BoD....


Turn the lights out on the way out you set of useless incompetent individuals

So incompetent that they have given you something to moan and cheer about for the last 20 years.

Taking legal advice seems to be the most significant comment. What it means is we do not want anyone asking questions or slagging us off.

They would have had lots of legal advice by now and if they had anything to take action on the comments would have been about taking LEGAL ACTION not LEGAL ADVICE.

good luck with yopur campaign and i hope you get the answers you deserve.

How can they affoad legal advice? Thought they didn't have a pot to wee in

I'd suggest they haven't had legal advice or if they did they realise they haven't a leg to stand on and the statement is rather a warning of intent for future publications that criticise Wakefield's BOD's! Scare tactic as such

I bet the journo's are cacking their pants at the thought of the big bad Wakefield BOD coming after them

Legal Aid

So its taken them all week to come with a short statement that says nothing.

If they refute it, why don't they set the record straight and end the doubt? This just creates even more unease.

Sums up everything thats wrong with the current incumbants and they can't get the hell out of the club fast enough for me.

How can they refute the allegations when the info is out there in the public domain? Bugger off and let someone honest run our club

Don't know why he can't admit he has made a massive error and accept it and walk away. In that way he may retain what little dignity and credibilty he has left.

Comical... the lot of them.

Very reminicent of the embarrasing outburst of a few weeks ago aimed at Cas.
