So is this the only remaining issue that is preventing work commencing?
"The preferred deal for the football club is an Option Agreement with WNC to enable the club to buy the freehold CDNL land with the option only being exercised when the East Stand is complete"
It reads as though the club have now openly shown their hand to gather support for WNC to agree to the terms.
If you were WNC would you sell them the freehold after the alleged underhand way they obtained the lease? Personally I would wait till 2024 and exercise the option.
