Wakey Express, Yorkshire Post , Evening post have a link with Box, Councillors has family connections to reporters, information from club goes to reporters who pass it on to Councillors who then keep Box informed. If I was in charge of club I would ban all Labour Councillors from the club unless they publicly state that they oppose Box and his cabinet in regards to the councils position re the 106 agreement at Newmarket.
I would also ban the press who have been reporting fake news obviously just reporting Box`s smear campaign propaganda

I think the council consists of only 10 non labour counciler.
The best bet would be to engage with them and seek advice and backing for the promised community stadium.
Don't bother going through the labour chanals they will simply close ranks

I understand these publications are Mickey Mouse papers, but, I can't believe for a minute that information that "reporters collate is handed to Box via councillors.

If there is even an ounce of truth in this (which personally I seriously doubt) then it is an absolute disgrace and all those involved should hang their heads in shame. I think I am right in saying that your club now has a sound financial structure and what I believe to be a playing squad which could easily attain top 6 this year. The only issue you have (and lets be honest we have as I don't believe it until I see it) is the stadium issue which in no part is any fault of your own. I am one of few many Cas fans who believe that we should both get a new stadium and push on from there. Wakefield and Cas fans are very proud of their respective clubs and I can only imagine how I would react if this was mooted about us. It would as someone said previously be the final nail in the coffin of professional rugby league.

Good luck with you search for a new home, if it actually comes to that. More importantly good luck in getting the 2 points tonight as I'm on the -2 like the proverbial car bonnet.

As much chance of that as me winning the lottery.

A nice libel suit against the YEP and Phil Clarke who originally stated we ought to sell our place to Toronto could be a nice start to a new ground fund.

I'd also ban Clarke from Belle Vue, not sky mind, just Clarke. If he wants to watch rugby let him sod off to Toronto. Or maybe sale since his brother his Denny's agent funny how sky never mentioned that.

Let's show some teeth.

Not as daft as it sounds.

This type of shi...scurrilous article writing does affect lives.
Players are being talked to at every level of the club
People in the employment of the club feel their futures threatened
Sponsors get jittery
Potential sponsors pull out
Money is lost

All because some no mark indulges himself and writes a puff piece with no substance or a shred of truth.

I hope the idiot doesn't turn up to report on tonight's match!

I've Tweeted him advising not to turn up as the game has been re arranged and is to be played in Toronto.

This is ridiculous the club should be speaking out about this. Completely unsubstantiated reported, no quotes, no evidence just absolute claptrap.

Well your owner said on sky that you would have to seriously consider an offer of it was around 2 million. I'm stunned by this. If you got 2 million, it would only just about cover the costs of going down, can't see the logic behind it.

If Wakefield go close to admin again how tempting would 2million look?
I think a new main stand with modern facilities and you have a decent ground again , how much would that cost?

Estimated £7 million at least for a new main stand, on land we don't own, so have to add the price of buying that on there too.

Repeated on sky as the above poster said. So if MC refuted this, why do we think it is being peddled by all and sundry?
