Nope I'm amazed. The only retrospective is that i didn't know at the time they did it.
It's business. You don't trust anyone like that with such a big deal.if they were that trustworthy they could have given us the money and we'd have bought it r Carter get a loan and buy it off us later.
They'd have laughed at that idea. As we should have.

Ah, another one who doesn't know the full story and who wasn't involved who somehow would have done better than those who did. Your desire to be contrary is just plain odd.

The Club and the Trust took Sir Rodney's advice in good faith. MC is not a property developer it's not his job to secure land for the trust is it! Where exactly do you think he was going to find half a million quid?

Why this attempt to divert blame is a mystery why anyone would criticise the club for taking advise and acting honourably is beyond me.

There are two people to blame for this fiasco - Peter Box and Rodney Walker. Forget about the developers or anyone else. The focus must be on these two any version from that plays into their hands.

The Council promised us a development that included sporting facilities for Wakefield via a 106 agreement which is legally binding - they have failed to deliver in every respect but more to the point they have done so by IMO a number of illegal acts.

Just a quick question to you PB simply because you first brought it up, why is it that WMDC want to build a new community stadium on somebody else's land which is not big enough, when there is a site at Newmarket ideal for the job.

They don't, they don't want to build a stadium at all - why, god only knows.

The reason for this is that Box knows full well that when the first new stadium in the WMDC district is built, then there will be no impetus at all for a second one. His problem is that as his preferred choice of the one at Castleford is stalled he has to work even harder and more outrageously to place obstacles in the way of a stadium for the City. He has no shame at all in doing this as he believes he is untouchable.

There does appear to be cracks appearing on the Cas stadium issue, talk of security being moved off site in the coming weeks, the posters in the know are still adamant that it will progress.

Can't see why you have a problem with what I said

I wouldn't have done it
I didn't say Carter was wrong for doing it.
You yourself said you wouldn't either.

What's your problem with that?


If a guy comes to my door and says he'd like to buy my car but wants a test drive on his own I wouldn't do it. If you did it wouldn't be wrong.
I'm less likely to have my car stolen. You are more likely to make a sale.
It's just personal style.

everyone knows wright that a court case will take 2-3 years to come to a conclusion----- it is meaningless and a total waste of money - when the club will again be losers in the end ...we need to look at other options NOW!!!!!!!! forget the court dribble - we have been duded yes but crying is not got to get us playing footy in our area,,, next year is very shaky at the moment never mind 5 years time.

does anyone think even if we win a stadium will be built! PLEASE

Don't you thnk the Club are looking for other options? I mean seriously. Also at the same time we can also press on with Legal advice and if someone who's far more qualifield than you says, you've got a good case take them to Court, why shouldn't we do that as well. Lets be honest none of this really affects you anyway, you say you live on the other side of the world and you're opinions of the Club seem to go from one extreme to the other.

It’s like conversing with an 8 year old

At least he seems consistent on this issue (totally misguided but consistent). When it comes to the team he lurches between total pessimist and occasional optimist sometimes in the space of 24hrs!

I think you're giving him far too much credit there Daddycool.

Do you think he's that old!

Like it or not DC, that's a big part of your customer base.

Bojo is an exception because he lives in Oz. So as a customer he is on the absolute fringe.
He doesn't come to games, probably can't buy online as postage will be high, possible gets Trinity Tv (if he doesn't he should, it's great)

However he does cross over with many supporters in that he isn't close to the detail of what is going on, doesn't know anyone involved personally , can only go be public media but cares about the club.
Fans are bound to react in all directions......... like 8 year olds.

It's hard to understand......and although the statement from the club was very good, sometimes it will need explain at an 8 year old level if you want everyone on board. Over and over again.

Presume you're being sarcastic??

Bojo is a wind up merchant who probably lives in Cas.
