The only really best way for a business to save and not leak money, is to go through their accounting cost centres with a fine toothcomb and find out what is spent, when, where, and how much, and see if these are neccessary, and if they are, they need to look at if they are getting things at the right rates. Things like, electricity, gas, water and telephones for a start. I once worked somewhere where they were on domestic rates, rather than business. Then look at other things, such as stationary and staffing. Are all staff on the books, or are some temps, where you would pay a lot more for them, or dont outsource staffing, like they do with security.

A way to make more money, would not be to give their season tickets away and merchandise, like they do. If we sold say 4000 season tickets, and they went up by, say £20 a head, thats £80,000.

Also, events at the club on a night, such as parties, we dont make anything, because, we logically outsourced this in 2012.

I think it is in the making, but releasing a book on the history of the club would be a good way for the club to make something.

One final pointer, I used to work within a sports club, is that where I was used to host a monthly dinner, for corporate guests, where they had after dinner speakers. This made money, and was also used as a networking event for possible new sponsors, partners etc.

www.bradfordbulls.co.uk/news/art ... a-sell-out I’ve mentioned this before but could something like this be a goer with respect to an additional revenue generating mechanism for the club. Personally I don’t care for the polyester replicas that all clubs sell so I generally don’t bother buying one but I wound be interested in a good quality (cotton) heritage shirt and I guess I wouldn’t be alone.

Suggested also back on 12th September surely if it works at Bradford with all the uncertainty around their club it'll work at ours with optimism for the season ahead?

Yes we are still discussing with council. I think once season actually kicks in it will give us more time to press other matters. This month is all about trying to stage a game day!!
