rlfan, it's a very noble thought and on paper a great idea but do you think 2,000 Wakey fans would stump up a £1,000 each, I'd bet we couldn't get 2,000 to pay £10 each, sorry to P on your bonfire.

Most of them wouldn't give the steam off their P away!

That's a great idea, but the numbers of fans willing to part with that kind of cash just aren't there. If things proceed as they are currently, there should be no need for this. Park it for now, but we may come back to it later! There are also complications regarding shares, ownership and prospectus - we've tried similar before - so its a bit more complicated than it sounds.

I am willing to meet and discuss the situation with anyone who wishes to explain what I can, but I will not compromise our position for the sake of being looked upon in a better style by those who no longer believe me.

It does seem as though I am being criticised for not saying enough, but I think I say more than most and do try to keep moral up. It is hard, for you, for me, but we cannot afford to let this slip by without giving it everything we've got.

Thank you to those with positive comments, for the rest, I understand, but can do nothing except ask for yet more patience!

What my mate TRB said.

Good idea,because people would be buying
a assett rather than just giving moneys.

I don't think anyone can critiise you after the time and effort that you guys have put into this project and like everyone else I hope all your hard work pays off one way or the other. I wouldn't take the moans personally mate. I know it's hard probably not to though. Anyway thanks for all the time you and others have put into this. I certainly wouldn't have had the patience to have been involved.

99% of those who post on the subject, those who are despondent, critical of the Council, critical of the Developer, apathetic, negative or otherwise disbelieving of there ever being something tangible at Newmarket or Belle Vue are not aiming their feelings or venting their anger at you or Sandal Cat or IA or anyone from SWAG or RfN.

I shouldn't have to say this again but I have the utmost respect for you guys and any comments I make are not designed to undermine you or the work you've done and continue to do. Suggestions I make are not meant to be smartarse, holier than thou, condescending or patronising but genuine suggestions designed to create debate.

Crack on fellas, the vast majority are behind you and appreciate your endeavours
