Proof if what, costs to out on a match are called matchday costs.

No it was stated that was the cost. There was a belief this included stewards. The latest accounts prove that the club employs its own stewards and policing is a separate bill. Matchday costs are the proportion of fixed overheads given to the tenant.

It's Sisu spin.
Typically inferring that but I'm afraid no figures produced.

All we know is that it's free plus costs to actually put on.

To state that as fact you must have the terms available. Good provide the data source and we can close the argument.

Done on my phone but what is the point? You struggle to understand the difference between fixed and variable costs. The club were given a deal which charged the same rent in League One or Two and matchday costs - any suggestion that anyone would be content with a rival team offered a better deal on either element is deeply disturbing.

That's rich coming from you. Provide the figures on the Ricoh "free" use and we might believe you.

This thread has developed into an absurd hypothesis that Nuneaton would consider a move here and some posters have suggested a lower cost to them would be acceptable.

But that means nothing without the match costs - the club claims the costs and rent were blurred in the deal -- what are these costs?

That isn't the Tc's and C's is it?

Isn't it this one?

ACL are mixing match day costs and rent.
At Northampton, Rent includes; all stadium related first team match day services including pitch maintenance, utilities, refuse collection and covers the following facilities - the pitch, the stadium, the stadium seating, the changing rooms, hospitality suites and banqueting areas, match day staff facilities, media facilities.

The stadium also provide all catering staff, all grounds men. The licensee (the club) separately provide stewards, crowd doctor, crowd ambulance, player ambulance.

The ACL proposal comprised a license fee of per match plus match day costs, defined as charges to maintain and manage pitch, utilities, waste, hygiene, match day stadium maintenance salaries, statutory service contracts. The total is north of 12K per match. This is, of course, rent/facility fee.

So it wasn't actually rent free.

"All charges incurred on matchday as a consequence of staging a football match will be passed through at cost, for example, stewarding, policing, utilities, frost protection, matchday repairs to stadium, health safety and compliance management and certification, service charges for maintenance contracts eg flood lights, generators etc.


......... at cost. Zero rent ........ Sisu spin Grendel.

It isn't, because Stewarding and Policing is paid for by the club for a start?

The only thing I can see that will go up depending on attendance is:

Cleaners (more people, more rubbish)
Power if stands are closed (For the concourse etc)

Surely most other things are the same no matter who pays? ie pitch, under soil heating etc, health and safety (unless there needs to be a couple more staff if there are more people I guess)

Surely the catering staff etc are all paid by ACL / Compass or whoever as well as the electricity / gas / health and safety for the food places / bars.

If the rent offer was previously £200 a month and utilities £100 and now its rent free and £300 for utilities is that a better deal?

Has anybody said that gas and electricity should be free?

It is just if you were charging me £12k yet charging somebody else £2k I would be peeved, especially when you keep telling all of our friends how much you love me and want me back

Especially when I would be having loads more friends round who would buy beer off you so you would make money from that as well.

Nick, you are missing the point (deliberately?) The point is the stadium might be "free", but the Tennant has to collect any incumbent charges that may accrue due to their use of said stadium.

The fact that Northampton include a lot of costs in the rent 'package' does not mean they are free of charge. There added on top of what ever rent they charge and billed as one charge.

ACL were taking nothing other than costs to put on (at cost - and this could be checked or queried if they actually wanted an agreement)
That statement Nick put up in argument is actually Tim Fishers.

Fcuking SISU apologists can't see the wood through the trees.

Have you got the documents for this too?

The thing is, none of us have seen the documents, we are both just using statements but you claim yours is fact but I am an apologist. I haven't said anything is fact I have just posted a statement against a statement.

Did ACL ever reply to that statement from Fisher to say "No, you are wrong"? They may well have.

In the year to 31.5 we spent £7m on staff, £6.5m on admin and operating costs, and £1.8m on interest. All this with an income of £6.6m, plus player sales of £1.6m.

Incessant talk of whether the deal is £200k or £400k is a distraction from where our problems really are. This seems to be what ML wants us to discuss though, so maybe he's right and I'm wrong.

So you haven't got the actual documents you are just going off a statement the same as what I posted but I am an apologist?

Did ACL prove what Fisher said wrong after they went all public with this "rent free" deal, he has said "it isn't actually free though" and then nothing? If they have replied and proved the point then please do post it.

I wouldn't be fussed if Nuneaton were to play there, but would it be right if ACL offered them better terms than they did to us? I "think" if it happened they would use Hinckley though.

Thats on the football league web site so give it some credibility. Sisu had moved on and even made a play that the offer was not made to them.
FFS Tim you were not speaking so who else was it made too the Spanish Inquisition.

I'm taking an actual statement off the FL web, your taking TF statement. :facepalm:
You are a Sisu apologist and if you like I'm an ACL one. I can live with it but I think your position will come back to haunt you one day.

Do me a favour just say boo to Sisu once :thinking about:

So the football league deserves credit for copying and pasting something onto the website but everything else about them is corrupt, not fit because they allowed SISU to move us etc? Can't have it every way?

There was also the rumour (again, no documentation) that Leicester paid £1,800 for a game there, is there £10k worth of difference of what is used?

Wait, isn't there 2 of you posting? I am not hunting, just merely posting statements that were in response to yours. You were asked if you had seen the terms of the offer, you said this:

Nothing too long in apology just the word will do !!

Why is an apology needed? I posted the "come back" to that statement and you go off on one about being an apologist and hunting in pairs?

My statements are just spin and I am an apologist. Yes, I wouldn't trust SISU as far as I can throw them, but I wouldn't trust any of them.

What is this line?

All charges incurred on matchday as a consequence of staging a football match will be passed through at cost, for example, stewarding, policing

This is paid for by the club anyway, so it is already misleading?

When an adult goes to a game they pay, say £18, when a child goes they may pay £5. Do you think this is fair? There is no difference in the seat being used.
