Perversely having more conservative/ukip/lib dem councillors could actually end up being counter productive. Whilst ever the labour council has a majority, which they will have whatever the results next week, Box will always go against anything proposed by a councillor from an opposition party, it's just his way. He almost sees it as an insult to himself and it steels his resolve further. He does though usually at least take on board comments from his own party and whilst he may argue he knows for the sake of getting re-elected as leader he cannot be too dismissive. What it needs is members of his own Labour party, as groups if necessary, to stand up to him and fight for what they want. The problem is Box is naturally a bully boy and few seem to want that but it would be the best cause of action if it could be achieved. Whether that can be i'm not sure but when the labour councillors come knocking tell them it's time to stand up to their leader. This alongside a locally influenced Labour government leaning on them is highly likely to be the only hope of ever getting the ground built without the need for costly legal action which sadly will probably still result in no guarantee of the ground ever materialising whether it is successful or not.

If anybody else had told me that, I'd believe them but with your track record I'm not convinced

Great banter guys.





#WheresRodney?

Or indeed how come Sammut was in the London squad yesterday against Hunslet, or how Wakefield
Trinity played in the 1998 SL season?

Tigerade, the joke that just keeps giving.

How are we supposed to know if you don't
