| Quote Prince Buster="Prince Buster"OK just for you, I will put it in a way that you may understand and be able to make a valid comparison.
Box has the same regard for Wakefield Trinity as you had for Margaret Thatcher and the tories.
So basically he will do the same to help the club as you would do to help that lot.
I hope this helps you to have a perspective of the situation.'" well if that's the case were well and truly up the creek

| To put it bluntly, this isn’t going to happen. It must be true the resident serial posters said so. Mr Carter.. why are you wasting your time Persuing this pipe-dream ? You are just as thick and wrong as the previous head honchos of Wakefield Trinity.

| Well there's one thing about all this, I think if there isn't something more constructive and positive revealed by the deadline then I don't think it will happen.
I appreciate fine details are probably being discussed but those involved will have had enough time by then to know whether this thing will happen or not and I really expect something being announced with a more definite statement than we have heard before, from ALL parties, otherwise forget it.

| Having worked in a structural consultancy/architectural environment for 50% of my working life, the cynic in me has me puzzled as to how, after all Box's denials of involvement, the departure of RMW, the "public council meeting" etc etc, the plans and architectural impressions of the new ground appeared so quickly on announcement of the latest proposals.
I can imagine Box instructing someone in the Planning Dept in Wakefield One to find an aerial shot of a football ground in Spain, Argentina or somewhere; Photoshopping the Trinity badge onto it and superimposing it onto a an aerial photograph of Agbrigg. He could then sit back and think: "That'll keep them quite for another couple of months!!"
Seriously though, those layouts and details of the proposed development did appear rather swiftly don't you think? Mmmmm!!!!!

| I know this forum has turned into a negative forum but what have people heard to say it's not going to happen? If all the parties didn't want it to happen why go through all the trouble and press releases surely it would have been easier to do nothing. All I've heard is nothing has changed since last months announcement, what's the people on here hearing? Makes next months meeting important.
Up the Trin

Maybe 88M have been working on them since the original date ? It’s quite a while ago since they bought Belle Vue and told everyone what they were going to do with it. Maybe, just maybe they aren’t as crooked as Yorkcourt properties ? Just a thought.

| When the ground was bought it was announced they would be making plans for a redeveloped stadium. It appears to me they did those and just rolled them out at this announcement. No conspiracy here I’m afraid.

| Personally I think he comes across as a very honourable and successful businessman, much more than that of Yorcourt.
Wasnt there even the talk of him working with the club to revamp Belle Vue way back when he bought the ground back in 2016. Maybe these plans were drawn up back as far as then, maybe as a contingency if NM fell through.
He has been regularly tweeting and re tweeted about the club and stadium during this time. Have Yorcourt ever tweeted anything to do with the club in the past.
I am of the belief of we havent passed the deadline, and of the saying no news is good news.
Parking has been mentioned as an issue. It is, but maybe no more so than it is now. Manni has also worked with car parks in the past and am sure he is fully aware of this and am sure there will be steps in place to resolve these issues.
Dont some hotels actually have car parks underground these days?
Keep the faith and keep believing
