| Apparently a solution must be delivered by Wednesday this week, what that entails is anyone's guess,does it mean for 2018 season or the long term future?

| The silence from the club and trust has been deafening over the past couple of months, perhaps thatsthat's because there's nothing to report, or perhaps it's because there is something to report but they've embargoed it until a certain release date, I guess we'll be finding out soon enough

Whose saying a solution must be found though, the RFL or the club? If they've only just been told how can they possibly sort something by Wednesday.

"Perhaps there's nothing to report or there's something to report" good call Poirot, either way you're spot on there EB.

I'd tend to run with the latter. Whether it's what we want I don't know.

Something to do with season ticket sales by 20th Sept. are we going to continue at Belle Vue or move to Dewsbury. Has to be thrashed out with all parties including Council.

| Report in the Sun that the announcement will be tomorrow whether we continue at Belle Vue or move to another club, probably Dewsbury.
I'm happy to say that I'll support the club in whatever decision is made and will continue to attend games so long as is feasible (moving to Coventry etc would make it unfeasible)
I do wonder if it would be possible to do a joint season ticket between the two clubs if we were to move. Add an extra £80-100 perhaps on to the Trinity ST price which goes directly to the other club. I wouldn't necessarily consider following another club, but if the games were built into my season ticket (a Tetley's stadium season ticket) then I'd go and watch some games. It would be a win-win for both clubs if they sold some stadium season tickets

I thought this was an interesting line.
"One of the issues are the terms of the match day revenue if they stay". Taken from The Sun Twitter page. I didn't realise that there were outside sources involved in match day revenue.

Purely hypothetical of course but this could be a negative. Maybe the new terms of extending rental of Belle Vue is that the ground owners get a share of matchday refreshment sales? This would be very bad for Carter and could be the council , the BV owner and the SL deadline forcing Carter into a less favourable decision. I feel the more deadline looms, the less cards we have to play.
As for Dewsbury, I appreciate that Carter has often quoted it as an option. Having been there myself I feel it is too small a ground for SL and will reduce the club's revenue significantly. I fear it could be the start of a downward spiral for income. But then again I appreciate I am only making assumptions. My opinion is as valid as the next one's and we need to trust Carter will make the right decision for the club.

That's exactly what I was alluding to, does Manni want a bit of our match day income? If that's the case isn't that blackmail? Give us more income or we'll refuse to offer you the chance to play at BV?

I can hope.

If it didn't involve the Peter bit it may be a runner
