HEPWORTH Costings vis a vis a Community Stadium: from what I've gleaned from radio 4 plus quick google. Pls be suspicious of my maths, as I graduated from the D Abbott school of finance
A propos WMDC funding a community stadium.
Cost of Hepworth £36 million plus £6 million grant for 5 yrs.
Money made in first 5 yrs £20 million
Visitors 1.5 million
Apprx. Annual Equivalent for £10million investment in stadium: 75,000 punters spending £800k
Assume 15 home games, need 5k average spectators per game, spending £10-£15 each ( not sure if this is including admission).
From above, would seem to be equivalent viability on financial grounds, tho' kudos of beating Tate modern ( no, it's not a Southern Union team) would be lacking, though Radio 4 do mention CC & grand final-albeit briefly.

I am lead to believe it was their preferred option, however they were persuaded to choose knottingley instead. In fact I will alter that, I know it once was their preferred option.

I thought inside man was referring to the area on California drive which is definitely Normy.

No I meant the new one off the A1 near to darrington.

Ok mate, I'll keep my nose out next time.
