Now now rich, you know questions like that arent allowed on here, its like the derision shown to HKR s development, when in fact, they are doing it the right way, developing income, not losing it, clubs need money, not shiny empty seats

Developing not losing income? Really? Is that what's going on at Hull KR?!

Dont hold back, let us in on your wealth of knowledge about the subject

At Fax we now play out of a decent stadium but there's a cost. The club takes the proceeds from the gate obviously but all other revenue streams (bar, food outlets, function bookings) go to the council. This is fair by the way as they paid for it all. I think Fax just take the gameday restaurant receipts.

I'm just saying, when other people pay for the stadium they're going to take the proceeds. New stadium isn't always the manna from heaven for their club that fans may think it is.

In these two new stadiums how much of the revenue they generate will the clubs see? Will the investors/council take all the income?

Cas will own it, so we will get everything. Obviously things like the food facilities may be contracted out but Cas are hoping to get enough money to own them too.

Although if the rumours currently doing the rounds are true, the only stadium Cas'll own is Wheldon Road......

Leave Mr Dog alone, he's been wrong every time in this thread

Although based on another forum, making false claims is the MO of Fev fans lately.

Although I'm still waiting for the details of the supermarket deal announcement that you and your mate Rich have been telling everyone was only a few weeks away back in July - or was it October, or January, or March......?

June 19th - the new Wakefield ground passes the public inquiry.

June 20th - RW announces that they are in advanced talks with a number of companies and an important announcement is imminent

June 21st - everyone laughs

June 22nd to the end of time - Fully keeps the RW bandwagon rolling with inside info and untold optimism.
