There was no mention of this latest fiasco in the Star,seems even they have lost interest in it,it will go to the Planning Dept and be rejected as there are provisions for a Village Green( the pitch) in the plans!

From recent evidence, it is not.

Is this any surprise from a paper that is the "poor relation" to a Jack Rag ??

Seeing that we have signed quite a few new names before the wag result was thru, and now players like mark jones are resigning for 3 more years i think this latest twist by the s9 has been digested by the legal representatives of the club , and without responding to the s9(which is the type of publicity they would love and desire) they have seen they have no chance what so ever in their delaying tactics.

basically we are a professional club , with true professionals at the helm, and we no longer respond to the occaisional gnat bite, which is all that they are. !!

What of course we do get are 2 bit reporters with a nvq level 1 in reporting trying to big big fish....pathetic really, let the 9 of them sit in their front rooms, plotting...because at the end of the day we should pity them before they all end up in expensive nursing homes, needing much needed medication

It is now clear that the only way we aill make any progress towards moving to our new stadium is to engage these people through the courts. It seems that whatever pathetic objections they make, it costs them very little however it is causing untold damage to our finances.

Surely our legal team can find a way to engage these people long enough that they can't make any difference. As 6 said we need to make any legal process a costly process in order to create a huge doubt in their minds whether it is worth pursuing the issue.

History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but if faced with courage, need not be lived again.

What makes them think people would actually want to live by them anyway?

Especially as the residents obviously support what such a person did, they are not bothered about it to such an extent they allowed him to be a spokseman. And people would want to live in a community where they openly condone such behaviour? That is of course merely my opinion and not necessarily that of the forum......



There's also the overseas person factor if you know what I mean. Something I know for a FACT is a leading cause for their opposition to the development.

With regards legal fees, Bungle gave his services for free (and it showed) so it proves they haven't got the money. Saying that they may have a tidy sum in their pension funds!)

Spot on, at least threee of the srag's don't want any Eastern Europeans or "Gwalia" residents near them, fact! Take me up on the post if you want srags, I dare you!

Just an observation and it's not a criticism, but I notice since you've joined the forum you've made many anti club (management) comments and now seem to be sympathising with the srag? You probably don't know but i've been a vociferous critic of the club in the past and I was just wondering what your stance actually is on the move to Pemberton? I'd also be interested in what basis you have for a seemingly still lingering anti management outlook? I say this a someone who's accepted there have been great strides and recruitment in the off field personnel.

No criticisms, just get the feeling you don't like sg and don't want to move. Say hello Saturday, i'm always up for meeting forum members in a social setting for a friendly debate, even Scarletrover:)

This is going to cause some delay and it's also going to cost the club more money.

It's time for everyone to play hardball with these people.

In fact, one bit of useful arguement could be the change of ownership. WRU owned the ground until recently and only since we bought it back could we have allowed anyone to do anything on the pitches as they weren't ours until then officially. Therefore the most that can be claimed is since then and thats only last year isn't it? - Not long enough...

The WAG identified NO reason for the development to be rejected and they were presented with the strongest part of the S9's objections, surely CCC (who had originally approved the new stadium in the first place) won't see any problems either.

The Scarlets need to be brave and force some sort of legal wrangle upon these people just to keep them occupied enough to keep them from these farcical objections.
