I thought a benefactor had agreed to pay the tax bill and the funding is in place?

Their financial loss last year was smaller than several other clubs.

The Stadium is being built by the developer in conjunction with Wakefield Community Trust. Trinity will be the anchor tenant. Funding is in place from these sources as was confirmed to the Planning Committee on Friday.

The feeling is that it is unlikely to go to a Public Enquiry given that this would cost tens or even hundreds of thousands of pounds and does not sit well with the governments cost cutting and their emphasis on decisions being made locally. This coupled with the jobs that would be created made the council vote unanimously for the devlopment.

If and when the Secretary of State passes it back to Wakefield MDC for them to make the decision without a public enquiry it will be passed again unanimously by the same committee who passed it unanimously on Friday.

Full plans are already drawn up and ready to submit. Stadium designs have been finalised and everything is ready to go. It will be tight and there is a contingency plan should the build not be finished on time. But it will happen.

As far as the RFL is concerned - Que sera, sera



Oh and yes a benefactor has paid the tax bill rtaher than the club paying it off monthly.

Good luck with it. Wakey have long been my "second" team and would be great to see you get a decent stadium.

Thank You

rovers??

poor stadium-rovers??

losing money every year-rovers?



rovers to go

be a bit boring if rovers go wouldnt it, no big city derbies, no should i be rovers, should i be ull, and what have rovers ever done to you ?

Now you mention it ,nowt.But they are irritating beggers though arn`t they.?

Apart from trying to force our club out of existence you mean?

The operative word was "You"

not Hull.

Yeah because that was Rovers fault

Both clubs tried that trick.

Back to the thread, I am still hoping it is Wakefield.



Their constant mismanagement, brinkmanship and sheer arrogance (thinking they are now safe !) deserves a relegation.
