There is no chance 18,000 would attend. Under robins with mcgoldrick scoring for fun we scraped 10,000. Many of those were not paying customers and gate receipts have never exceeded £5.2 million even in the championship days and that included vat.

I think its your calculator that needs changing.

ok G... so do the maths based on 10k..or maybe 9k for margin of error reasons please.

You need to look at the bigger picture, the Sky Blues have no future whatsoever if either the club or the owners own our own stadium and have access to ALL revenue streams.

FIFA Fair Play rules based on 'gross income', not profits! PUSB

I agree with you about the revenue streams but why do we need to own the freehold?

Ownership equals equity on a balance sheet. That enhances saleable value and it certainly improves borrowing capability.

You haven't read it properly (under the terms & conditions we were playing under at the Ricoh, no chance of making money either short or long-term!). TO BREAK EVEN AT THE RICOH WE'd Require gates in excess of 23,000!!!!!!!!!!

if they are making more money at sixfields RFC you must be obese and have coronary heart problems with the amount of pie's sh1tsu need to sell you to make up the lost turnover from the ricoh regardless of the rent deal.

Not at all, Im just saying there is far less pressure on the players this season because we're not playing at the Ricoh.

but have you not noticed how the players react to the pulsing, vibrant sky blue traveling fans at away games.

i think you underestimate this young team. i think they would blossom at the ricoh in front of 12,000+.

what's up grendull, has your calculator broke or have you just realised your argument doesn't stack up, even based on 9,000.

The gate receipts declared in the accounts are NET of VAT.

As usual you make no sense. What are you blathering on about?

i'll dumb it down for you, i just hope i can dumb it down enough for you.

you questioned the gate numbers that had been suggested so you were asked to do it base on a lower gate number of 9,000.

your reply was "Ownership equals equity on a balance sheet. That enhances saleable value and it certainly improves borrowing capability"

as usual when you cant back your self up, you've gone of at a tangent instead in an attempt to deflect that what you are blathering on about makes no sense.

so i'll put the question to you again. do the maths for 9,000. if your not sure how to do it go and ask a responsible adult.

Grendel, his quote was "FIFA Fair Play rules based on 'gross income', not profits! PUSB" so stuff equity, saleable value, improved borrowing - its punters cash he is talking about.

Again you make no sense.

The point made is if the club owned a stadium it's balance sheet and equity stake is enhanced. No "back up" is required.

Peter hill-wood I believe once famously said you don't need fans at football matches. In his case of course he referred to the huge revenue gained from TV.

However, if investors or one investor has agreed to support losses for a period and then promised a return if the equity conditions are met we also are in a position where attendances are not relevant.

Fair play rules will be waived by the FA while we remain at Sixfields. I'm fact there is a view the loans guaranteed to the club will be counted in the equation.

No, the balance sheet is 'balanced out' with debt from the new stadium and many years of self inflicted reduced income. Your talking bollocks.

Again wrong. Any monies put in needs to be equity not loans. Do your homework before opening your mouth.

This is sensational. Italiahorse has inside knowledge as to sisu's future plans. He confirms tonight a new stadium will be built. He also knows that debt is to be piled against it.

Any chance you have a source?

You are right about the gate receipts they were £4m to £5m in the 2011 accounts, but what you have not looked at is sponsorship £6m to £7m in 2011 accounts. This will all stop soon.

That was when we had a premier wage bill. The new stadium they keep talking about will not generate a premier wage.

blah blah blah.

so what were the calculations again based on 9,000? you seemed to have chosen to amit that from your "reply" again!

is it just me or does that not read right? If CCFC or the owners (SISU) own the stadium and all income rights the Sky Blues have no future ?????

Common sense in analysing SISU plan A.
I can see why your struggling though ?

Well, thats a big sigh of relief then. Fisher has no excuse to sell players in Jan becase he has previously stated SISU will fund the club and, more importantly, Grendel has stated the FA will waive the FFP rules while we are at Sixfields.

Thank the lord - we do NOT have to sell! And screw every other club that has to abide by FFP.

Well the 1500-2500 at sixfield is based on data I think-the Ricoh figure subject to conjecture I agree- but even if you reference last years home attendances as the comparator the maths to move to Norhtampton doesn't stack does it?- thus does VOR not post a reasonable hypothesis?

I never said the move to Northampton stacked up either.

Sorry but there is no evidence to support your forecast.

I never said the move to Northampton stacked up either.

The point of my post was in part to establish that although you stated there was no evidence to support the original hypothesis posed by VOR- the attendance numbers at Sixfield is very much evidence based- I wasn't trying to imply you supported the move to Northampton- sorry if you read it as such.

The original post makes the common error of judging solely on the immediate numbers however, which it's never been about!

Really, why on earth do we have to go round this every week?

Do you *really* think Fisher and Seppala are so stupid that they haven't noticed 2,500 fans paying a tenner is less income than 10,000 fans paying £15?
