3 weeks, just in time for peak canvessing season then. Was it just the trust in attendance or was there some council and/or developer representation there? |

The council are generally in attendance at Trust meetings as an invited observer. They were with us this morning for part of the meeting. |

I very much doubt it - Yorkcourt's brazen disregard for the agreement they conned everyone into believing they had made demonstrates that they fear no one, least of all WMDC; if they are prepared to go up against HM inspector and the SoS, they certainly won't be cowed by the distinctly small-time Mr Box, or any of his fellow gravy train passengers. |

Labour won't get in. Sadly I fear it's the Tory filth that will. |

I have never seen so much garbage in one statement. I doubt the completion of a stadium for Castleford would be high on their agenda, I have not heard either state any interest in Castleford or RL. When will you learn that the problem with our stadium cannot be blamed on others, what have we done ourselves to facilitate a new development. We have no money, we even sold our only asset the ground.
I know it is the conservative mantra is to blame others so I suppose you are only following what you have been told to believe.  |

Bless, so very naive. And you've not heard them state any interest? Well you do realise Yvette Cooper is the MP for Cas don't you? Also she has just made a video with the Cas CEO asking for the government not to call the application in. Oh and she is married to Ed Balls. And they also both fairly regularly attend games at Wheldon Road. And yes we can blame others, you know like that developer who has been less than honest. Also we don't own our ground and i don't vote tory or believe a word they say. But other than all that good post.
So if its written garbage you are wanting well done, you just won the trophy.

@TRB. I ask as reading the trinity board you have a lot more insight than me. Recently I read an article in the MEN, related to a new housing development in Salford, which mentioned that current legislation restricts councils to asking for no more than 15% ( might have been 10%) of profits from a developer on a 103 agreement. I hadn't seen that before , was wondering if you knew if that was correct? If do does that have implications for your discussions or indeed those in Castleford ( as it would imply the developer is making at least £200m profit to fund a £20m stadium?
Is that why AJ Bell which was built as part of a wider development was not gifted to Salford Devils but remains owned 50/50 by Peel and Salford Council?
Edit: just found the original article, and it is must make 10% profit not as I said above. Link below.

I'm not from Wakefield or Castleford nor support either, more interested, but reading that article through again gives an insight into what people like TRB. MC etc and those from Cas have been wading through for months\ years and I salute them all

I honestly don't know the legislation relating, but we had a deal agreed and it has not been enacted correctly - a result of the actions of both the council and developer!
We are now in a completely different place, with the 106 acting merely as a point of reference.
So many mistakes have been made it has resulted in the whole thing being extremely muddy, but we maintain that we have a significant role to play in this process and we are working hard to maximise our position.
For reference I am both the spokesman for SWAG and sit on the Wakefield & District Community Trust - the intended recipient of the NM stadium, should it ever materialise!
Thanks for the support.

Yvette Cooper MP for Castleford, married to Ed Balls, plus Peter Box WMDC leader, all Cas fans' and all have a career in politics, on balance if they are asking for the application not to be called in I would suggest that has more to do with generating new jobs for the area than Cas's new ground, whether they attend their games or not doesn't really matter and is probably only window dressing or vote catching anyway, so long as Cas has its funding in place and don't seek financial help from the council then where is the problem, I would imagine if there was anything untoward with anything to do with the clubs planning application and finances Mr and Mrs balls would not risk political suicide and would distant themselves from it all. |

Isn't Mr Box is a share holder at Cas ?
If so, in his position as council leader, he "could" have influence on aspects to do with their application.
Also, IIRC, he basically said that our situation had nothing to do with him and it was up to the club and Yorkcourt to deal with.
As council leader, you might expect that he could put his weight behind any project that was for the good of the community that he was voted into office to serve.
The same could apply to Balls and Cooper ? |
