    Matchday Costs at the Ricoh - What do you get?

    I imagine ACL were very happy with the terms, and it took the club a very long time to decide they weren't happy with them. Do you think the rental terms being offered now are fair? I imagine SISU are pissing themselves laughing now that they get the ground rent free, and they get to keep all...

    Matchday Costs at the Ricoh - What do you get?

    Are you suggesting that for an 'a' game we'll play our more expensive players, but if you attend a 'd' game you'd be watching sky blue Sam up front? Did we still have category games anyway?

    Matchday Costs at the Ricoh - What do you get?

    Does the ticket price to watch a game vary depending on the costs of the players that are playing in that particular game? Of course not, the ticket prices reflect what the club think they can charge to optimise their income. ACL would do the same, they will charge the most they think they...

    Matchday Costs at the Ricoh - What do you get?

    I don't know what costs would be different, but often when things are sold the price for the same thing can vary. For example when you buy a ticket for a child the same seat is cheaper, but all the overheads are the same, a pensioner may be loaded but gets a cheap ticket, the examples are...

    Overseas signings

    I thought Safri was a quality player, even though I'd forgotten about him until the other day. Very popular at Norwich as well. Just went about his business in a quiet efficient way.

    The Official Petition Thread

    You make some great points, you really do, and if you weren't so patronising people may take them on board. That would mean you wouldn't have to repeat everything over and over again, and that would benefit us all.

    Yep, the Stevenage manager.

    graham westleys big idea

    Excellent from Westley, he could easily avoid getting involved, but he stressed how important this petition could be for all football fans.

    CCFC & The Ricoh

    How much would this give the club per season? How much should the club pay to get them back? I think they sold the rights for £5m, is that a fair price to pay?

    CCFC & The Ricoh

    I think it is true that the last set of accounts showed that £10 per person is the correct figure. You have to take into account the amount of free tickets, childrens and oap discounts, VAT etc. Think about all the adults that used to go in with child season tickets as well, there were plenty of...

    CCFC & The Ricoh

    If we had been given the ground for free for the last 6 years we'd be £7m better off, I think this still means we'd be massively in debt, so the rent is not the cause of all our problems.

    CCFC & The Ricoh

    I think it's because they need a big return for their investors, they don't want to be in the football business longer than they need to be. Buying the rights, and getting the rent down will help the club, maybe we could even break even (although I doubt it). This is not going to get SISU...

    WM is the signature that Skyblueweeman uses, he isn't accusing you of being on the wind up. Just a misunderstanding I think.

    The Official Petition Thread

    Just to point out the 100k doesn't mean an automatic debate, it only means it will be considered for debate. Obviously it gives a chance, and it is raising awareness of the matter, so hopefully the target will be reached.

    any irony in this?

    So Higgs are effectively paying a few million for the leasehold of a relatively small old building. The Ricoh leasehold must be worth a fortune.

    Better than the Sunday Papers

    I don't understand the issue with the Spurs 1997 late kick off, we knew before the game that we had to win, the result of their game wasn't going to change that. Does anyone else remember the topless lady at the start of that game, I think FHM were trying to get streakers at all the Premiership...

    Most have worked you out as a wum, you've certainly livened up their evening though, and they certainly know about the petition.

    And if they'd paid the rent blah blah blah etc etc.
