I have been keeping an eye on tinterweb and the FOFP website but can find no information on what happened in Court yesterday with their legal challenge against the Wireless Festival. Does anyone know what happened?

I am a bit baffled by the joy displayed on this board at the news of Friends of FP's defeat in court.
Are you really that happy to have park access seriously reduced for several weeks and its grass razed off for months on end? Not to mention the accompanying mess at a time where local traffic is seriously increased...
Also, don't expect the council to do anything productive with the money they will make from it, as they are too busy selling off everything that is not nailed to the floor, so investing in the community or its parks is the last thing on their mind.
You're probably right that a middle ground needs to be found, but I still do not think this defeat is something to rejoice over. Giving Haringey council carte blanche to do what they want with the park means they'll probably try to rent it out every weekend, given half a chance...
