It just keeps getting better doesn't it?

We haven't had 50% of the cash if what the clubs say is to be believed. I am also sure that it was a condition of the deal that we did not have to move until the new ground was sorted

This is it.



22. The development shall not commence until a replacement playing field facility of equivalent or better quality and subject to equivalent or better management arrangements has been provided in a location to be approved in writing by the Local Planning Authority and in consultation with Sport England.



To secure a replacement facility in accordance with Unitary Development Plan policy L3.



You may have to sell the ground to Cala but until the above is provided they may let you rent it back.

I bet that would be Cala's dream outcome. They probably don't want to build on it yet anyway, so if they could offset some of the cash owed to us against rent, it would be ideal for them

Could'nt be further from the truth!

Newmarket Community Stadium will happen if people continue to work towards making it happen. The club have confirmed that a move to the proposed Newmarket Community Stadium is commercial viable as a NL1 side not just SL and Yorkcourt are committed to the deal either way. The stadium will be SL compliant, so if the worst happens then I suspect a return to SL for Wakefield would be very possible in three years.



As for the Newmarket development happening then it is highly likely that warehousing and distribution units will be built on at least a minimum of 33ha of the site as it will be taken out of Green-belt by a target date of March 2012.



The support for Newmarket is vital for the community sport facilities, jobs and as a new home for professional sport in the city of Wakefield. People need to understand that Newmarket will continue with or without Wakefield Trinity and there current financial problems and the stadium will be available for whomever wishes to use it in the future irrespective. If that is the current Wakefield Trinity Wildcats or a 'new' Wakefield Trinity Wildcats or even a football or Rugby Union team, it will be there if we fight for it!

Clan you are correct, due diligence had been ongoing for some time of even completed... they knew what the exact financial position of the club was before the meeting with the RFL!

Were the terms of the proposed offer the same as they are now (ie 500k and the BOD resign and hand over their shares?)

I think this whole scenario we find ourselves in is a complete and utter disgrace. We're the laughing stock yet again.



Many of us have guessed for quite some time now that things were not all they appeared to be within the club. Whether the club have lied or have tried in their wisdom to shield and protect the fans is unknown but one thing is very clear. The so called professionals we have entrusted to run our club have not done so and they should be accountable for their actions.



Also, it is one thing asking for investment and money, but doesn't the club feel the fans and people of Wakefield have a right to know exactly what the hell is going on?



Surely investors also want to know what they are investing in, where that money will go and how the club will be run and managed through this difficult time



I read yesterday on sky text that the club are in a very serious position and the RFL have known about this for some time. OK so



1 - Why won't the club come clean and tell the fans and people of Wakefield EXACTLY the state/position we are in with real, true facts?



2 - If the RFL have known for months then why are they not doing anything about this situation? Seem all too happy to run to the rescue of London and Crusaders but not a team with tradition and history in the game. Bloody disgrace!



This whole situation sickens me to the core. There's no information, no hard facts and the demand now seems extremely last resort which I am sure it is.



Dark dark days ahead I and really am very concerned for our existance, never mind our future.



Do I have the money to buy a share? - NO



If I had the money would I buy a share? - Not without many detailed answers and hard facts given to me by the club first.....

By refusing to loan them a penny even with an offer of security on Newmarket. However, the RFL are happy to give £750k with no security whatsoever to a small club in Wrexham and 10 years to pay it back! Thanks RFL your the best.... and only governing body we have... unfortunately!

How can you give security on Newmarket when at present there isnt even outline PP for the area, They dont call PI for nothing , the costs are horrendous and the outcome is not cut and dried, you keep saying newmarket will happen, it was said that it wouldnt go to a PI and look whats happened,, I agree though it seems one law for one and not the other, but without knowing the actual facts drawing assumptions is a waste of time
