I think it's a little bit the other way round.
It was common knowledge that WMDC had committed £2m to Trinity's development (I seem to remember it as drawing a loan against a WMDC asset e.g. a land parcel, or similar).
When Fev and Cas, perhaps rightly, made a bit of a fuss (and they did, privately, to WMDC), the council have 2 options:
1 withdraw the offer
2 find a a way to make the same offer to all 3 clubs.
It's absolutely right that WMDC (and the local taxpayer), should see what it is they are getting fir their community for the £2m.
It is and it isn’t. WMDC had far more of an obligation to Trinity than the others because they screwed up NM.
I’d suggest they couldn’t remove the 2 million from us for fear of legal action. Politically they had to support the others, nothing more imho.
Cas and Fev fans won’t like it but we were owed far more than them and still are imho.
