Not quite. I think someone other than Yorkcourt wants some of it too.

Can Yorkcourt legally renege on this scheme as easily as that? surely you can't just hoodwink the local council, the Secretary of State and the general public on such a scale as this and get away with it!
It's time the gloves came off and the whole fraud exposed!

Yorkcourt can demand all they want but they will only get it if the council agree.

The real problem is the council they are quite prepared to sit back and allow yorkcourt to do as they please. If the council did their public duty and represented the people that pay their wages and voted in their political leaders there would be none of this.

The rot set in when the CEO and her deputy had a meeting in secret with Walker and made the massive concession to yorkcourt that Newmarket would not contribute to trigger point. This meeting was not minuted and a freedom of information request has revealed there is no written or recorded record why this was allowed to happen. IT ALL F'IN STINKS !!!!!

So a question for sandal cat... what are or options now? And what are the chances of court action?

Its all gone quiet on Clarkes Brewery project asnt it,and wonder what as suddenly happened to the agreed trigger point. Makes you wonder if part of Walkers crew could be made up off people conected to them

The Trust needs to decide what to do next.

My opinion which may not be shared by all Trust Board Members is that we stop talking to the Council and Yorkcourt as its a complete waste of time and getting us nowhere, call a Public Meeting, start the crowd funding and instigate Legal Action/Judicial Review at the first available opportunity.

Talking and being reasonable has got us nowhere, in my opinion we have to start fighting for what is right.

Yep all further discussion will do is allow them to stall until it's too late for the club. They have shown their true colours with that HoT agreement which box made sure didn't get to the trust until after his radio appearance

Pretty sure that's where the club are too Ian. And also IF we are forced to move out of the city, that decision needs backing, because if we aren't together, we'll get nothing!

No idea what it costs to instigate legal action sandal cat , but if that is where we end up then I will be a contributor to that course of action..
TIME TO GET THE BIG STICK OUT!

I know Chris is with this and I have just spoken with Phil and he is in agreement and I'm sure Jonathan is of the same mind.

You are correct, we must maintain unity and stick together. United we stand, divided we fall and that is what they are trying to do.

Its big money, £50,000 at least and maybe as much as £100,000 if the case is lost.

We will be utilising Crowd Funding to raise the money but its a small price to pay to try and achieve justice.

I'm in!

THe Clarks application can't go in yet, because the original OPP and 106 are still in place. After December we will need new agreements / applications which is what the HoT we're meant for. Any application now will open Pandoras Box - hence it will have cooled, for now!

It's a pit DG isn't still the owner - we could have asked him to push for it!

Is the trust publishing the HoT today? I think we deserve to see the extent to which we are being taken for mugs. Also are the council due to make any further statements?

It looks like time for a push, public meeting anyone, get the ball rolling? Time to get our SWAG t-shirts out?

Very despondent at the moment, although Its good to hear and read we have good people pushing and working for the club and community or we would have been thrown to the wolves a long time ago

Well don't be despondent law field.. it's exactly what they will be hoping for,this is the time for all of us to come together and take the fight to those who seek to get away with their obligations.

If you start a fighting fund I'll contribute.

and you can count me in as well

Even if we don't get a stadium out of it, I would love to see these corrupt barstewards get their just desserts. I'll contribute

That's more like it Jizzer..
We need to hire a junk yard dog lawyer and get up and at em!!

I think now the new HoT and expected council take on it today is out in the open then there is scope for one more meeting. Telling them face to face that it is not acceptable and will lead to legal action is the best way to gague their reaction and takes away the 'they have refused to meet to discuss the new terms' argument that they will surely use. Set very short timescales (i'm thinking by the end of the month) and if they refuse to attend or comply then you have that feather in your bow moving forward and they don't. Doesn't have to be nicely nicley, make the meeting as uncomfortable and frank as possible and even short and sweet if they refuse to budge. It may seem futile but it needs to be done IMHO, they will use any leverage against you they can should it get dirty so cover every possible base. Once that is done should there be no positive outcome then it is the time to move. Legal action should always be the very last resort, it's costly, time consuming and given they would throw the kitchen sink at it leaves a very real possiblility of losing the case which leaves us stone dead.

Just playing Devil's Advocate here (I'm sure the real one will be along shortly !!), whilst I am in with everyone else in wanting to see these Sheisters brought to justice, BUT, assuming we do succeed in this aim, then what will be the likely outcome ??
Are they possibly looking at criminal proceedings for fraud, or in Box's case, misconduct in a public office ??
What have our legal team advised so far on possible outcomes ??

When will that decision be made and announced?
