typical poor wakefield express headline. plot 4 is part of the original warehouse scheme- not the land earmarked for where the stadium was going to be. That is plot 8!! so therefore its the next application that needs support. The plot 4 ship sailed many moons ago, and a few people got very rich using Trinity as a trojan horse

This.

I actually believe that once the new East Stand and the fully re-vamped North stand along with whatever else may be planned are done, the new BV will actually suit the vast majority of Trinity fans than NM ever would have. It will also be finally decent enough to attract new fans, assuming the team ever start to play again.

That by the way is not excusing what has happened, that is a scandal of huge proportions. All the same, IF it happens then it is indeed a bonus because I thought all was lost.

The tragedy is that right until the last minute our future will be in the hands of a man I wouldn't trust to clean my windows. Oh well

Don't know about others but as far as I'm concerned it is more attractive to away fans as well.

Planning application approved yesterday
Don’t know if this is the one to help us with the stadium funding. But I’m sure someone will make a few Bob out of it.

I'm assuming that's got something to do with it but I don't know for sure.

Just looking through the WE report, this paragraph took my eye.

The warehouse will be built on land which was allocated for employment when planning permission was given for a new community stadium on Newmarket Lane in 2012.
That development, which would have seen Wakefield Trinity relocate from Belle Vue to the stadium, never came to fruition however.

My concern is this, the land in question is I believe plot 4, my understanding is that plot 8 is the development that releases stadium funding, if plot 8 is eventually given planning permission. Therefore, how did the original site for community stadium become dependent on plot 8, when plot 4 is now up and running for development, before our stadium funding has been secured?

Anyone paid up yet?

Initially I was very positive about this re-development. As time is flying by and the bulk source of funding (I would imagine) have now got the planning they desire I’m becoming increasingly apprehensive that this development will happen. I may add that while we are waiting on planning the somewhat larger development seems to have been pushed and flown through at pace.

I hope I’m completely wrong but if this doesn’t happen now then it never will and I’m sure the long term future of Wakefield trinity will be bleak to put it mildly.
