Wiggin sets the record straight
After publication of our article about the Bill required to move Hereford's livestock market, Leominster MP Bill Wiggin, whose constituency borders Hereford, spoke to HU-FC.co.uk.
He was keen to set the record straight about his position re the market and Hereford United.
"I am a keen supporter of the football club and am deeply scepital about ideas that developing the site would in any way help the debts of the club. If there our funds available why has the council not them available, why have they not made available any planning permission application so that we can all judge for ourselves?
"The truth is that developing the cattle market for more council offices would do little for the county except increased traffic congestion.
"What the Lib-Dem council must do is tell us where the market is going,tell us who is going to develope the site, and tell us how the football club will benefit."
Mr Wiggin said that the Bill to move the market will probably go to the House of Lords and a decision might take at least twelve months.
He will be campaigning in Hereford tomorrow and, if time allows, is hoping to see the game against Barnet.
