I get the feeling my post touched a nerve with someone close to the action/inaction there. 8)

Re: Wakey to get new ground maybe
I think you have Al. Wonder who Toady is ? Only 14 posts and all stadium related. :-k :-k :-k
For what it's worth - I cannot see a lawyer taking WT's case up in court. Not enough evidence against the accused. Meanwhile, the clock keeps ticking away.

Re: Wakey to get new ground maybe
I can't tigerfeat. Banned for a joke that was taken as an offence by the politically correct Wakey fans.
Re: Wakey to get new ground maybe
What I still dont get on their board is whilst they are clearly miffed shall we say with SRWs involvement why there still doesn’t seem to have been much questioning of the fact he was privy to the information about Newcold and asking serious questions of the Trust/Club how this would affect any court case?

Re: Wakey to get new ground maybe
SRW signed off the Newcold agreement (that it wouldn't count) on his own. There were no other trust members present and now there is only one current member who was on the trust at that time. Phil Townend (I think) aka TRB. He was duped by SWR no doubt but it still doesn't account for their incompetence in not seeing the detail that Al mentions.WallTiger wrote:What I still dont get on their board is whilst they are clearly miffed shall we say with SRWs involvement why there still doesn’t seem to have been much questioning of the fact he was privy to the information about Newcold and asking serious questions of the Trust/Club how this would affect any court case?
I remember it at the time and a few Tigers fans were told to "troll-off" their board because they didn't want to hear anything of it. It was probably a bit of the old "boy that cried wolf" scenario but the warning fell of totally deaf ears. They didn't even check up on it.

Re: Wakey to get new ground maybe
There are quite a few touchy subjects that have suddenly become "myths" to the WT fans on RLFans.com. Hence the recent attempt to get Al to prove his warning all those years ago on here by Toady.tigerfeat wrote:Ah right i see , would explain why theres not much of a alternative point of view on offer on there now

Re: Wakey to get new ground maybe
I can see what Toady is getting at. There may not have been express wording that "the Newcold application would not count towards the trigger point", but my point still stands - "the application is a stand alone and is in no way legally tied to the extant outline consent for the site should have set the alarm bells ringing and questions to be asked by those involved.

Think Toady is a member of the Supporters Trust... Wonder which one it is?

Re: Wakey to get new ground maybe
Yeah, the Wakey RLfans is an echo chamber of blame everyone and anyone but who they really should because they don't have the mental capacity to actually take a look at the facts that have been there right from the start.

Wakey fans read this forum and ignored it. So the question remains why if a Cas fan picked it out, not one Wakey fan did.

BTW I wonder what was discussed when Ashton Smith met with Elson and Glover 15th May 2013 pre-planning application meeting?alcasfan wrote:In the words of the planning statement "the application is a stand alone and is in no way legally tied to the extant outline consent for the site"
I don,t suppose there will be many objections either from the local groups regarding the scale of the building 42 m high that is about 11 or 12 storey

So, a new & separate application because of the height restrictions. No mention of trigger point.alcasfan wrote:In the words of the planning statement "the application is a stand alone and is in no way legally tied to the extant outline consent for the site"

The quoted line should have been enough to concern any one connected with the development.
Surely the people "involved" should have queried the implications at the time?

The urban myth is that it was obvious that newcold would not count towards the trigger point and the helpful people from over the common even warned Wakefield fans about it.
On what grounds would the trust object to a relaxation of height restriction?
The height issue was the only reason given for the need for a separate application. Unless (like SRW) you were told directly about the council/developer's view that it would not count, why would you ever consider that land subject to a S106 obligation would not be included? As yet, there is still no evidence that this position from the LPA is actually correct or legally justified. We will see...
P.S. I am not, and have never been, a member of the trust. My house is quite close to the white monstrosity though.

Notwithstanding why SRW chose not to tell the rest of the Trust (like you say this may come out in court) can you understand why it’s feasible for people to conclude that if the Chairman of the Trust was aware then the Trust as a whole/Club would be informed?
At the end of the day as has been said numerous times before the trigger point has not been reached even if they included Newcold today. So the only thing I can see court action wanting to achieve is exposing potential corruption. Even if that transpired other than some officials in public office facing serious charges it would not get Wakey a stadium.
