Great way of delaying doing anything for another 5 years.

Wakey playing Leeds on Boxing day. Could it be the last ever game at Belle Vue ? Carter claims Hussain isn't talking to him when he asks about paying rent for next year. There is a poster on their forum who makes the point that WT gave notice to quit Belle Vue earlier in the year and nothing has changed - he was (as usual) derided and ridiculed on the subject - but he might have a point.

Also, the bill of delipidation. No mention of the payment of making Belle Vue operational for 2018 - wasn't 400K the required amount to satisfy the health and safety alone ?
First 3 "home" games look mischievously convenient - Salford, Hudds and Widnes before the visit of the mighty Tigers Could the RFL be helping them for a bedding-in process at Dewsbury ?

No mention of the cost to upgrade Belle Vue and who will be paying for it.
No mention of the community facilities.
No mention of the current state of the ground and how it will be safe to play in 2018. Wasn't the cost of repairs 400K ?

All a bit vague if you ask me.

Get read for a new effigy for the Wakey fans to burn...... our very own Councillor Denise Jeffries has been appointed to the new trust to see the re-vamp of Belle Vue.

Denise Jeffries May represent a district of Castleford on the WMDC she acted like a cuckoo replacing one of our own local candidates when she was in danger of loosing her Wakefield seat I think she is a Wakefield fan at heart

Looks like another warehouse is going to be built that will not count toward Wakey's square footage towards the Newmarket community stadium :-

must be a draft letter of complaint by the looks of things. every objection is the same. probably all wakey fans but who can blame them for trying.

I'm weary with it all now Lurcher, I've been involved with SWAG for upwards of ten years and I'm just a bit "blah" now, people are still working their socks off, will we get a ground at Newmarket? Not a chance, in my opinion for what it's worth, we might get a few 4G pitches that might be classed as community facilities but a new ground, nope. All I can see happening regarding BV is maybe backing Yorkcourt into a corner and maybe getting a little refurb of BV.
As a cynic, WMDC planning department received this second application on 21st May, it was validated (I'm guessing approved for public consumption) on the 9th August, it was then made public on Monday 4th September, that gave 11 days for the public to put in their objections, not a long time. Plus I've been trying since last night and the server is down. Hmmm.

Sorry, 8 days for objections, and it was Monday 3rd, they have to be in by the 11th.

I thought if an objection was received from a template, they were all counted as just one objection. That was the point I remember from the "stadium war" era.

Surely fans should be writing their own different ones?

Not necessarily counted 'as one' but they hold less weight. Individual objections are much better.

There’s a thread on the Wakey RL Fans site that has provided a template for supporters to use. Not been on the planning portal to see if it is the same but what I did notice was this template only mentions the stadium and not all the other community sporting facilities it was supposed to also generate.

I'm not in the know but guessing that this initial objection is just to judge the feelings regarding this new application, I'd assume that a more official one would include specifics.
It does however refer to a "Community stadium (for the community) and never once mentions a "stadium for Wakefield Trinity"

May get shot down here,

But would it not be worth other fans of rugby teams objecting just because of the way Wakefield have been shafted over this?
It isn’t great at all that the clubs been used in the way it has for the development and applications outside the agreement.

Would the wakey fans be doing the same for cas if the boot was on the other foot is a thought that comes to my mind
