I can't wait til we get back to the Ricoh aand we can go back to moaning about how "it's too big", "No atmosphere", "too far out of town", "parking is crap", "food and beer overpriced and too cold and warm respectively", and not being able to give away any spare tickets for love or money.

So you're saying that a boycott is pointless from a financial point of view?

Merely based on the length of the lease shortening each year? Would lose value correspondingly I'd have thought?

Surely the value of ACL would go down every year?

You were claiming that I was casting aspersions upon their "projections" that the hypothesis that the Olympics curtailed their business when there has been virtually no difference year on year in turnover apart from the Olympic "blip". Do you doubt their assertion now, or do you agree with...

Think that for most,if not all, of that 2011/12 year they received full rent. Don't know why it moved up from the previous year, could have been Compass payment of £4million? Generally been averaging around the £6.5million per year though. Next years will give us more of an indication anyway...

This is a thread going over the same old crap anyway. Nice way to engage with those who do go though, "the Shitfields 1000".

Yes, which makes it pretty much neutral, year on year, on year, which is why having the Olympics was never going to be the money-spinner that some made it out to be. Still doesn't explain how having the Olympics impacted on them based on previous years figures.

Especially as most would be wondering how to pronounce it. "Come on you Spinks", "No, think it's Sfinks", "Oh, right Come on you Suffinks?" "Don't think that's right either?" "What colour are we?"

Logic, no matter how perverse, is not a friend to Mr MMM.

There is no way in the World that your projections(not theirs by the way) has any basis during any kind of factual analysis. You could not explain how a doubled income during the Olympics year over the previous year(with reduced profits, but that's by the by), with a note saying that the...

Think Sisu can be blamed for the paragraph shortage. More fucking cut-backs.

Only if there's an inordinate amount of injury time.

Think one run and shot wide by Best was about it. His "tactics"(never the twats strongpoint) left Hall woefully exposed on the left on his own, with World class players running at him at will. Felt really sorry for him, and did a good job considering. Can still see his look now across the...

I found the atmosphere, and the whole performance, a bit flat in that game to be honest. Was all just a bit, "meh", rather than engaging.

Think the first home game of that season, had beat Arsenal away 3-0 the first game with a Quinn hat-trick. The East Stand was being redeveloped that season, so only about 17,000 capacity, drove down from Scampton that afternoon to get a ticket, the only one i could get was in some sort of...

I don't think you actually answered where these projections of extra income were coming from yesterday?

That's nothing, I had a personal shout out from Gary Hoffman then a call from him. Now? He doesn't write, he doesn't call, doesn't send flowers. Feel dirty and used.

Always though that somebody should set up a "Sky Blues Experience" interactive tour. Pay through the nose for it, start off on the top floor, open to the sun, slowly make your way down flights of stairs as it gets darker and more depressing, less and less people with you as you make your way...
