[quote="dally messenger":1gysl9ow]was watching an nfl doco. on one of their teams and they used the term bomb to describe those long high passes from quaterback to running back and i think gibson took that idea, realized you cant throw the ball forward in RL and adapted it to a "bomb" kick we have[/quote:1gysl9ow] [quote="eels fan":1gysl9ow]You poor poor obsessed fat ex vichyballin potato thieving stoaway.[/quote:1gysl9ow]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_6679.png



Quote: j.c "Are all the clubs costs coming out of gates reciepts,ie administrative costs, stadium hire,training ground hire and medical costs etc?.

I think your in a very good position if they are.'"


Admin costs, together with Marketing and match day costs in 2012 came to a tad over £1,000,000, whilst ticketing, season tickets and commercial (which I take as the shop bars and sponsors) came to £550,000....this accounts for 20% of the losses made that year.

Listy, the above is 100% factual!

I doubt that TK is taking any risk in 2014 and have heard that we are paying a fee for all the services you mention as well as giving up all the revenue streams.

Listy, the above is based on information received from sources that have yet to be wrong.

Ramshackle springs to mind, but personally I think it has a lot of charm.

The last time I went there the toilets overflowed.

I was charmed beyond belief.

"People use statistics the way a drunk uses a lamp post - for support not illumination":



Underhill itself isnt too bad,
The key issues are to do with access and the councils refusal to allow improvements. We used to lease the cricket pitch behind the south stand from the council and we had a right of access behind the East Terrace to enable vehicles access to the southern end of the ground.

Problem started when the council asked for a large sum of money to allow us to continue using the access road and to renew the lease on the cricket pitch.

Without this access it no longer complies with football league requirements so the writing was on the wall.

The other factor for moving is the cost of maintaining an old ground was a burden. Particularly as the main stand was built as a time when asbestos was regularly used as a building material and so extra care has to be taken.

Yes it is, it's a complete dump. Ridiculous slope and battered old stands.

"People use statistics the way a drunk uses a lamp post - for support not illumination":



Slope is about 2 metres from one end to the other, can't see it making much odds for Rugby.

This may give you a better idea. tbh despite what Tre says I would still happily swap playing at the Hive for Underhill and I have been to plenty worse grounds than ours.

It will also give you an idea of what kind of chairman TK is.
