Quote: Smithers99 "Thanks Mush Tun. Do we think that is the only source of the figures rather than something in addition from the Broncos directly? There are two key attendance figures that are associated with the Broncos, 2,000 and 5,000. Which I suggest directly equates to those two rent levels.
It could have been better written because the 200K is not guaranteed. Rather it's an expected minimum related to expected attendances. I'm making an assumption that 2,000 is the minimum expected attendance, based on some other expectations rather than just a random number.
I'd assume there is indeed a minimum rent, Broncos won't get the ground for a couple of pounds if one man and his dog attended. In the event of a lockdown I think Broncos would play elsewhere due to that minimum clause.'"
That's the only source.
The £200,0000 figure is not guaranteed, correct, but there is a break clause in the groundshare agreement.
I think you might be right to assume the £200-500K figures correlate to 2000 and 5000 crowd figures, as 5000 is the Broncos' stated target within three years.
But the claim made on this thread that the Broncos are paying £200,000 rent is clearly erroneous. It's a revenue-share model - the higher the ticket/food/drink sales, the more Broncos pay on top of the undisclosed minimum rent - and vice versa.
