There are so many factors/parties involved it is almost impossible to even guess. I'll just wait for MC & co to tell us what is happening. Pointless pontificating online will change nothing.

So when I reported this many days ago Scarlet Pimp wrote `What a sad incitement that someone needs to bend the truth to try to incite others `. I look forward to an apology SP as to accuse me of incitement was and is a pretty serious charge. The celebration at the council offices dis take place, it was reported to me by an invited guest and it came after many weeks /months of the successful buyer working closely with the council. Sadly we have all found out that what ever Box, Jeffries and Rowley want they get. The destruction of Wakefield Trinity has always been their aim.

Dream on ! the people who have bought the ground are in it for themselves first and formost.

As for Yorkcourt when will sink in with people they have no intention of giving us anything.

Plus Box and his cronies is in all this

Granted for what exactly.

The "for sale" signs for the SB said that the Rugby Ground was not affected but, it appears that a deal has been done for both ?

IF this is true (and i have my doubts that it is signed & sealed as it is still listed as for sale on the property sellers site and as far as i'm aware still under the ACV which would prevent a sale for another couple of months) then i can't see how it is a good thing in any way for us. Even if they were willing to purchase on behalf of another party then there's a pretty good chance, given the lease is reviewed annually, that the rental cost would be rising pretty damn quick and become too much for us to stand. Moving to Dewsbury would mean us giving up the lease so the access would become irrelevent for us, it would be a decision for the seller and purchaser to sort. Given they have the superbowl tied up then it would be a pretty easy conversation.
