I thought at the time it was such a waste of money, 161 million wouldv build a Stadium and let us spend up to the cap for years to come and still give the person most of his winnings'"
AT LAST somebody has mentioned the word "stadium" again. With a bit a bit of luck in another 3 pages we will get a post with both "Wakefield" and "Stadium" in it.

Good post, lets stick to the Trinity Stadium issues and leave the Election to the news and the pub. |

| Quote davetrin="davetrin"Today I have received an election leaflet from Neil Dawson,Labour candidate for Morley and Outwood.
He says 'I welcome the commitment from councillor Peter Box and Wakefield council to bring this development to a successful conclusion.It will be a huge asset to the town (City)as a mixed-use development which will include a community stadium for Wakefield Trinity'.
Is he just hoping to get votes from Trinity supporters ?.At least he got the name Wakefield Trinity correct although he called Wakefield a town.I haven't seen the Tweet from MC ,so I don't know if it is similar to what Neil Dawson has said.'"
Do 2500 votes make that much of a difference in Wakefield? |

It never ceases to amaze me the stick the trade union movement gets. No one claims that it is a perfect beast, but it's opponents are all too quick to point to its mistakes without mentioning the, quite simply, incredible achievements.

It's an interesting irony that Vasty accuses lefties of shouting people down...
Anyhow - my point about this is that the Tories were cynically using our plight for a bit of election PR; my hope is that at the same time, MC was using them to apply pressure to Box and co.

That Yorkshire radio piece on MC seems to say that they're planning to try and borrow the money somehow and the developer pay back when the new market development gets to the Trigger Point

Was hoping to read about the work being done by MC and the club to secure a new community stadium.. and all I read is the bleating of nostalgic trade unionist activists and the descendants of the 50p millionaires created by Thatcher capitalism!
I get so annoyed when people see things in such black and white terms... good or evil... right or wrong... just STOP IT!
We need radical 'middle of the road' goodwill and positive thinking to make this happen... and the sooner people stop seeing division and start acting with common cause... the better!
I'm not sure we humans have that capacity in us though!
Hope I'm wrong
