Quote: Sarf Essex Taff "That's a bit unnecessary. Just repeating what is quoted in the paper.'"
sorry....my bad. It's just I take announcements of pending events with a pinch of salt given the 12 month build up in total secrecy to a new rental agreement and a try before you buy (and we'll pay you too) opportunity for a potential investor who doesn't invest in his other sporting club but instead expects it to be self sufficient.
6,000 fans at 20 a pop spending another tenner at every home game would deliver 2.34 million a year and coupled with potential sponsors and the sky cash would give us a pop at self sufficiency.
The Hive doesn't hold 6k, their football team averages 27% of that and their owner has a marketing team made up of an estate agent and a recruitment consultant.....yet this is a good deal for us according to Gus, so when he comments on visa applications I tend to take things with a very large lorry-load of salt!
