Just what I said about Newmarket - the money is there, we just need the council to stop playing politics with planning permission. As it's not Trin's stadium, Cas can tag along until their money is sorted out and their own stadium built without feeling that they are playing in their rivals stadium.
What it boils down to is we need PP, but not more money, you need the money that WMDC ain't got UNLESS they go back on their promise to Trin. Neither of us can afford to wait, but if Box is playing poker with Trinity he needs to be careful, cos the mood amongst Wakey fans is to call his bluff and re-locate to Barnsley (if they'll have us) rather than play in Cas Tigers stadium. If Wakey move to Cas we're doomed, 'cos the units will get built anyway just a year or two later and without the need to 'chuck in' a stadium as a sweetener. If Cas shack up with Wakey for a year or two there's every chance your lack of money will sort itself out - plus it'll give you time to sort out the compulsory purchase you desparately need for the access routes.

So what you are saying is that WMDC have decided that you will get outline planning but it is being held up by certain members of the council in collaboration with the planning officers to further the GH stadium - If I wre you I would get straight onto the local goverment ombudsman !!
Wakefield planning issues have got bugger all to do with Leeds, and any objections they raise will be dealt with by the planning process. When all said and done, Leeds are just a bit narked that Wakey have beaten them to it, cos IF we get permission it probably snookers any chance Leeds have for their side later on.
) 'cos it must be pretty valuable to the developers - it stops you in your tracks if you don't get it. And if they tried to compulsorarily purchase it at any less than what was a good price I'd be fighting it through the courts.
