Lets all be realistic, this is never going to happen. Lets all stop pipe dreaming and move on. We need a solution and NM certainly isn't it. I don't think BV is long term either, I don't personally know the answer, all I know is that NM will not happen, how long has this dragged on now, wake up and smell the coffee

That didn't take long, yet another reincarnation of you know who - you're getting very boring now.

Had a positive meeting today. Nothing firm agreed, but I am re-assured that we may not be alone in wanting this issue resolved.

As I posted on Twitter - hope springs eternal!

I've asked my MP, who by happy coincidence is now Shadow Communities Secretary, to investigate the apparent negligence surrounding the s106 agreement.

He has responded by writing to the Chief Exec of WMDC asking for an investigation.

Not holding my breath, but any pressure on Box can only help.

Should be interesting, but I suspect you will see the same BS most people get publicly.

Thanks anyway - and keep us posted!

Is there any way i can remove this endless and pointless thread from my computer.? Everytime it reappears at the top of the forum i am tricked in to believing that the diggers have started excavating the foundations at Newmarket only to read for the 500th time that " there has been a positive meeting but we cannot say too much at this stage but there will hopefully be some positive news soon" Now if some posters on here want to believe in father christmas they are entitled to do that but the reality is you need a lot of pennies to build a stadium and no one has any apart from city bankers who are not the most generous bunch.so if i could please have some sort of button that filters out fantasy posts like this one and leaves me to concentrate on reading and participating in discussions on rugby league matters i would be very grateful.

If you don't like this thread why don't you just stop reading it? Maybe it is fantasy land about the stadium but a lot of people are outraged at WMDC's conduct during this process and are hoping for comeuppance for some of those involved even if we don't get what we were promised! I for one await the call to arms!

NO! you are in the minority - lots of people have put countless hours into the stadium project and to ignore it would be a complete injustice and lack of appreciation to them.
We knew it would be a long fight so we should keep grinding away - not go away!
