And it isn't the right vehicle to allow monies to be paid into it for a stadium - which is why Wakefield have 2 Community Trusts, the Wildcats one which is akin to the Tigers Trust and the Wakefield and District Community Trust for the stadium.

I'm sure it was discussed before and it was demonstrated that both the Tigers Trust and the WDCT are exactly the same in set-up. In fact, I'm sure it was bigalf that did it.

They aren't!

Cas probably do not need to access the money until building starts. We have full PP.





Cas will have less community facilities, but that is one of only 3 coditions upon which the £2m land asset will be transfered to W&DCT - The 3 being :

"upon the Trust meeting the following three conditions. =#FF0000That planning permission is granted; that a fully funded scheme is in place and the Council has seen the community benefit demonstrated via way of a plan."

I still maintain the loan from the Co Op and the £2m land Asset are 2 different arrangements. But as you know I_A I will gladly be [uproved[/u incorrect

I wouldn't know. It's all bureaucratic stuff.

No, it's legal stuff.

You knew what I meant.

Don't speak to the fool. He hates all things Wakey, especially if its to do with the stadiums.

TRB is correct they are not the same. There is no GH Stadium Trust at the moment AFAIK. Ther is however a Glasshoughton Stadium Limited Company.

Fair enough.

Haven't a clue how all this works to be honest. Just want the frigging thing resolved now.

Don't we all ?

Not a chance. Long long way to go yet.

Always obstacles and things to get around. Nothing is ever plain, simple and easy going.

I'm not sure I did.

You are guilty sometimes of aping your great leader, in that you gloss over the facts to satisfy the expectant masses. In situations like this one, that's simply not good enough - if the properly constituted legal entity is not in place, the money can't be drawn down; no amount of smoke and mirrors can change that.

Indeed it is a joke. Ex pit, dump, 2500 jobs, thousands of happy sports fans and a great facility for the city. Beggars belief this is where we are after all this time.

iircc when it was discussed before it turned out it would take a mornings work to set the thing up, cas don't need it to be in place yet, so i don't think there is any reason to be bothered about it.

I'm not bothered about it in the slightest, but I thought it was legitimate to separate the spin from the facts.

not sure if this is true, but according to the wakey fb page elston is meeting the prime minister?

Can't see why it wouldn't be!

On twitter with a photo of James outside 10 Downing Street.

Wonder if he can persuade Dave Cameron to sign up to club 1873?

All SL chiefs (or at least most of them) are meeting the PM. It's to do with Sheffield's campaign to tackle homophobia.

Are Cas bothering to send anyone??

No idea.

I read it on a VT article yesterday as Mark Aston has gone IIRC from that article.
