I think people know but don't want to say because it isn't going to be good.

So we're still maintaining the dignified silence routine, for fear of upsetting someone influential? That's worked really well so far.

I'm purely guessing here, but maybe it's either not to say something that ultimately can not be proven or keeping the powder dry so not to impeed any potential legal action.

I imagine that the trust members who post on here, who were not on the trust at the time that RW and Box allowed the fridge to be built outside of the 106 are in the dark as much as the rest of us as to why this was allowed. Other than asking RW , James Elston, the West Yorkshire Windows man or David Hinchcliffe who I think were on the trust at that time, I dont see how we are likely to get an answer. I would suspect that JE, WYW man and DH will, if asked say that they were not informed and were in the dark as much as the rest of us.

Maybe he realised all was against him an got sick of fighting a loosing battle, for a man whose use to winning coming second is a bitter pill to swollow.
Dont think he will of taken the decision lightly mind, so Thankyou for your effort Sir Rodney.

What I really don't understand is why is there any secrecy at all. The silence invites people to think the worst because it's been going on for so long. I just want people to say what the facts are not things that cannot be proved. The W.E. are useless; I've said on here before a good investigative journalist would have been into this like a terrier with a rat. Facts would have been published and parties invited for their comments but it's not happening and I don't know why.

The Wakefield Express is the councils mouthpiece, it's not produced in Wakefield anymore just lazy Leeds based journalists never any real news . I only purchase it to see if I've been in court or died, so far been in neither.

If the original planning application is about to lapse, what happens next ?
Does the land revert to green belt or, does the original plan simply roll over until Yorkcourt (or whoever has filled their shoes) finally start to develop the original site ?

Wasn't a separate inquiry takes place running parallel to the SOS inquiry that removed the land from Green Belt? I'm assuming a separate planning application minus the sporting facilities to go in within the year. If at the end of the days it's not in green belt what reason would you need to bulid the facilities?

I'm aware that the land was taken out of green belt.
What I'm asking is that, IF the planning application lapses (after 5 years ?) does the land revert to green belt or, will it remain as "industrial" building land and is there the possibility that we may not get a renewal of PP to build a stadium at NM.

The Inquiry I was referring to was the local development framework (LDF) that took place around the same time but seperate to PI. I understood this took Newmarket out of the green belt. When PP for the stadium and the warehousing units lapses the land will still be out of the green belt which would be consistent with the LDF.
