This could be interesting as this is the man who bought Belle Vue  before it was subsequently bought from the council by Trinity.

Just our bloody luck.  Mind you if they seize it from him then it potentially gives us another opportunity to purchase?

They are seizing the cash paid for the ground ? The ground is owned by the club after the council loan.  So what's the issue 

He purchased it and the club were advised not to if I remember correctly so it could be interesting how he funded the purchase of the ground for a reputed 600K and sold it to the council who then sold it by loan to the club for £3 million all within 2.5 years.

I don't know how much money would be spent on the NCA involving itself in following the money trail to banks in tax havens overseas.

He may just settle for tax evasion - http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/4363620.stm

I was hoping East Stand planning would be in this year.

 Up the Trin 

Tbf a goor rebuild of that, in line with the new South stand at Headingley for example with terraces and seating, would be excellent.

Go to Headingley and see the real thing

I have been several times to Headingley since it was built. The ground looks very good, a proper RL Stadium. Just a pity there isn't more room to do something at the Scoreboard end.

A trinity bashing thread that hasn't mentioned how utterly useless we are on the pitch? Fun times. 

Fev fan here. No real trinity bashing my end. 

Might take the pizz out of your scoreboard disappearance a few years ago like, and I will of course respond if trin fans have a pop at fev with a suitable reposte. But I've no big issue wi trin. They're a skint RL team. Most are.
